Decriminalized yes, legalized no. they would start charging a ton and it would most likely still be illegal to grow with out an expensive license. it would probably be weak shit too. ---

Side note… on that topic… If it was legalized… it would be weakened, and heavily taxed… hence people would buy it from places that werent taxing it… aka illegal places, but NOW, there is now way to regulate what is and isnt allowed, you think that the government is going to allow this cash cow to make money and be used without them being able to reap some of the profits, be serious… it would be impossible to regulate, penalties would be impossible to assess, too much gray area, its a retarded concept that leads to more DWI, DUI, traffic, unproductability, etc etc… NOW, show me some positives from it… I’m going to venture that all you pot smokers will offer nothing concrete other than. “it helps me relax, i focus more (BS), It helps me score chicks, it makes me cool, im more productive, I make money off it, etc etc…” **I AM NOT BUYING IT** i hate drugs… they are useless to me ---

marijuana along with mdma, and lcd and others were outlawed because they promote “rebelious” behavior. mdma used to be used for couples saying it was a miracle drug that put weeks of sessions into one… legalize please \<3 ---

> [@AFhockey31](#): > > i want to know why everyone says no… whats your reasoning? I know 4 people who dropped out of college after smoking themselves stupid. Not saying it was the only thing they did wrong, but I def saw a change when they first started smoking. Also, the comparison between pot and alcohol is stupid, it takes one joint to fuck up a group of 4-5 people, it takes at least a case of beer to do the same thing and thats if you have light weights. ---

It doesn’t really matter if it’s legalized or not, it’s still super easy to find. I think decriminalizing it would be the way to go though. I mean, like someone else said, we’re paying for pot heads to sit in jail. It’s pretty stupid. I know a lot of successful people who are pot heads, too. I think a lot of you people would be surprised how many people do smoke weed. I work on the rez, and everyone from under the sun buys rolling papers, blunt wraps, dutchies, screens, etc. A lot of older people too. It’s not just younger people. ---
