very true....but i think the will of the people (and the cops/judges) is getting more & more worn down when it comes to the war on pot specifically

cities are turning into giant ghetto's....& the prevalence of coke/crack is on the rise, i don't give a fuck what the govt reports say about decreased usage etc.

cops are starting already to turn a blind eye to marijuana & only use it as an excuse to search vehicles nowadays if they think there's something else going on

many states have already turned minor possession into a traffic ticket.....the next logical step is the decriminalization

heck...in North Carolina (and many other states) you can drive around with a ounce or less on your seat no worries, if you get pulled over just hand the cop the bag, & he hands you a ticket....game over
