Yep, and if any of those pot heads drive or steal a bunch of mcdoubles then they go to jail. The amount of people imprisoned in this country for simple possession is ridiculous.

Yes - just like if a drunk drives or does something else stupid. I absolutely agree with you on all counts.

How about just living by the principle of non aggression? As long as theft, fraud, violence or damage to property (public or private) is not involve with my actions?..You just leave me alone to make my own choices..good or bad.

Yep.. anyone who says they're a conservative that doesn't agree.. isn't a conservative. If they want to waste tax payer money on imprisoning people who aren't hurting anyone, they aren't fiscal conservatives. It's that simple. It's not up for debate or discussion. If you support the war on drugs, you are not a fiscal conservative. That's the end of any conversation with so-called conservatives like Dr. Torch.

He isn't a conservative, he doesn't want to limit government or spending, he wants to limit things that he doesn't agree with or understand.

Agree with above. Legalize it and use our resources elsewhere.

I also has to do with resource creation. If Cannabis is off schedule 1...then industrial Hemp must be allowed to be grown. Hemp...like peanuts has hundreds of commercial uses.

Haha, that's rich since you don't understand basic chemistry or physics, yet comment on them.

Anyway, I really don't care much whether pot is legalized, and I've said as much. I just wanted this scientific result to be available. But, that means you don't understand what was written...par for the course for the libs that post here.

Legalize it and let me grow my own tax free.

Word. I would love to have small grow op in my garage and a garden outside. Indica in the garden...Sativa inside. Just a few plants for my own use.

You can bet you will not be allowed to grow your own without the "proper papers and fees".

That is a good point about resource creation - could be a boom to the legal economy.

Do it.

Just going through this thread really makes me want to legalize pot. Why not make it easier to dumb down another generation.

Sum - it is up to the user to use it in moderation.

That goes for about everything... Somehow Cannabis is held to another standard. It is fine for someone to eat 5000 calories a day and turn into a medical nightmare. It is fine for someone to drink themselves into cirrhosis.
Hypocrisy?
