My opinion is 1.) You can get unhigh,you cant get undrunk. 2.) Look at the statistics of alcohol related deaths compared to pot related deaths, and 3.) TAX money lol it would help this country out alot, and it would drop alot of frivolous crime that costs the taxpayers even more, there wont be as many " pot dealers ". For example when do u ever hear about alot of crime in amsterdam,holland? not too often,point made :thumbup

I vote to not “legalize” aka add government taxing to something that is cheap and readily available now.

The sad thing is I dont ever see it happening, atleast not a total legalization of it. Its too easy of a plant for the common man to grow. It would be harder for the state to collect their taxes then it is catching everyone that grows now.

A medical situation might work, going through designated care givers so the state can get their part

i say decriminalize it to the point where if you are caught with it upto XX amount you wont receive more than a fine/ticket. but over a certain amount shall carry a heftier fine, rather than a misdemeanor possession charge and/or possible jail time

Truthfully theyd probably save money legalizing it because they wouldnt have to arrest people and put them in jail for possession/sales of it. No more expensive investigations into it either.

As far as I know people can grow their own tobacco and then roll their own cigarettes so would it really be that much different?
