Re: Should Marijuana be legalized in the USA?
I'm a health nut, so I don't touch it, but honestly ... if alcohol is legal why not? FDA regulations. Production and distribution guidelines. Distributor's subjected to income taxes. As it is medical insurances are footing the bill for illegal use side-effects. Why not ante up? DUI's apply. Restore individual liability. Always prefer freedom of choice versuses "big brother" regulation. Edited by: Sara Michael at: 9/26/06 5:28 am

Re: Should Marijuana be legalized in the USA?
Being from the sunshine state I used to say "Let's plant marijuana down the median strip of the highways and we can fund all schools and hospitals no problem."I think making marijuana legal would actually cut down on crime (and not just drug crimes). Hmm, maybe I should go to Amsterdam this weekend. "If a man does not keep pace with his companions, prehaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." -Henry David Thoreau

Re: Should Marijuana be legalized in the USA?
It just makes no sense having pot illegal and alcohol legal.
Re: Should Marijuana be legalized in the USA?
Agreed, agreed, agreed... I agree. Why alcohol if not marijuana? Did Canada ever change their law about marijuana? I think they did, and isn't Mexico in the process of passing a law about it. Maybe someone else knows better than I. I don't keep tabs on these kinds of things.
Re: Should Marijuana be legalized in the USA?
I don't like it personally and never got what the big deal was all about; it just made me tired, quiet, and wishing I didn't try it in the first place. I'd rather have a couple drinks if I'm going to indulge! But, yes, I think it should be legal.

Re: Should Marijuana be legalized in the USA?
When I was around 17 or 18 I tried pot for the first time. Over the next ohh 8 years or so I did it about 20 times. Since then I have gotten stoned twice. I laugh so hard when I'm stoned that I almost hurt myself so I try to avoid pot. And it makes me paranoid sometimes. When I have some time I'll tell you a story about one time I smoked some pot that MUST have been laced with LSD.
