            detoxed, your question should be "Do you think that posession of marijuana (in any amount) should be decriminalised?"

            Sorry mate but I think your question is a bit misleading.

              Yes. It should be legalized. I don't smoke pot myself (anymore) but I have nothing against it at all.

                why should that be my question? thats not what im asking. I'm asking if marijuana should be illegal at all. Not decriminalized, and not just possession.

                  Why not? Alcohol was legalized and the country is banking too much off of its tax. They should just do the same with pot, and save the money that they use to fight against it, and make a HUGE profit from tax.

                      The real reason it is illegal today.

                      This is what congress was told about marijauna before voting to make it illegal.


                      "Reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men."

                      "There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos, and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz, and swing, result from marijuana use. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers, and any others."

                      "Marijuana is an addictive drug which produces in its users insanity, criminality, and death."

                      "Marijuana is the most violence-causing drug in the history of mankind."

                        It's always nice to have informed "opinion" when making laws


                        Tis also sad that a high percentage of US citizens are sitting in a cell because they smoked a joint..

                        And.. if I remember right.. the penalty is still 5 -8 years in Florida and Texas?

                        And.... even some drugs officers think it's all shit :-)

                            No, we've got enough cigarette smokers, afterwards we'd still have the smokers plus the weedsmokers.

                              I think that saying legalisation gives the impression that you want it available at the local convenience store.

                              Anti-pot activists are good at scaring people into thinking that if we "legalise" marijuana that their kids will soon be buying a 20 pack of joints down at the local kwik-e-mart.

                              Decriminalisation leaves it to us potheads to sort out amongst ourselves withour fear of prosecution.

                                      Absolutely. Not just decriminalized, but legalized. I don't smoke it, and frankly I don't care for pot heads. I also don't care for people who wear white slingbacks after Labor Day, but that's beside the point.

                                      With the possible exceptions of lung cancer and DUI (well, and being whacked on the head by a large bail), marijuana doesn't kill. It doesn't make people violent. It doesn't increase crime; its effects on the unborn are debatable.

                                      We KNOW that cigarettes and alchohol kill. Neither has any recognized benefit. Yet, both are legal and socially acceptable. Marijuana has many known and recognized benefits. Yet it is still illegal.

                                      These days there is only one reason (that I can fathom) marijuana isn't legal - there's no one entitiy that stands to benefit from it. NORML is a great organization and I applaud their work, but they're not (as far as I know) driven by profit. With that said, I can't fathom how the US gov has failed to recognize the enormous profits that could be had by legalizing and taxing weed.

                                          As if there aren't weedsmokers now? The next logical point to hit is "if it's legalized, then everyone will start doing it."

                                          1) If heroine were legal, would you do it? The point is, people don't decide to do things simply because they're legal.

                                          2) Show me any time in history when the use of an item increased after its prohibition ended. When alcohol prohibition began, alcohol use increased. When alcohol prohibition ended, alcohol use slowly decreased. Amsterdam did not experience an increase in weedsmokers when they legalized.

                                            Kids can't go down to the store and buy alcohol, but it's a legal intoxicant. However, kids can go to the store and buy NyQuil, a legal intoxicant. Yet they don't. Please notice the lack of social taboos against cold medicine.

                                              I can't believe this topic isn't getting more attention, considering how many members of the 420 club seem to frequent this board.

                                                        legalized or decriminalized it should be done
                                                        smoking marijuana is not considered addictive.

                                                        and a ban on that highly addicitve killer alcohol should be put back in place.

                                                            I think it should fall under the same regulations with alcohol.

                                                                    Decriminalisation leaves it to us potheads to sort out amongst ourselves withour fear of prosecution.

                                                                            those who meet the requirements will be able to smoke pot legally, and every 6 months must be re-evaluated to make sure that their pot-use isn't interferring with them being a productive member of society.

                                                                            although I'd personally never use it because i'm a fitness buff and pot is indeed not exactly positive for your health, i also believe that if people want to use it who're productive in society, should have the choice.

                                                                                  Make it where you have to be licensed to sell it, 21 to buy it, in trouble if you're caught smoking under 21 or buying for under 21, etc. Just like liquor.

                                                                                  Booze is a LOT more dangerous than pot, IMHO.

                                                                                    and in response, I think the same types of rules should apply for those who want to consume alcohol.

                                                                                    trust me, you do that, and you'll see a LOT more people begin to really TRY in life and stop being lazy fucks.

                                                                                            and in response, I think the same types of rules should apply for those who want to consume alcohol.

                                                                                            trust me, you do that, and you'll see a LOT more people begin to really TRY in life and stop being lazy fucks.

                                                                                            why is it any of your business if someone wants to be a lazy fuck? i smoke pot 24/7 when I have it, and I make MORE money because i am more focused in my work.

                                                                                            you cannot do what you wanted to do for imposing restrictions on weed, the supreme court would throw that down in a few hours
