From someone who has been"experienced",Pot will be legal someday. Look at all the crime( if you can call selling pot a crime)that will be elimnated. Think of all those hoodlums that will have to go to work.Our prison population would drop in half. I personally believe there are much higher priorities than putting some guy in jail for 6 months for selling an once of weed.Look at the taxes the state and feds. could levy on it. Kids could maybe learn something in school other how to fund raise! From the late 70's, from when I tried my first hit of pot, I've constantly wandered why liquor is legal and pot is not. I've gotten myself in much more trouble drunk, than I've ever gotten into high. I can operate a car or heavey machinery when high,try doing either of those while drunk.Tobacco Co's. have been getting away with drug sells for yrs.I understand that people would misuse this freedom, but they're going to do it anyway, so why not legalize and make the States and Government money with it, not to mention make the pot dealer have to find a new job.People would learn how to, and when to smoke there pot. Just like some people eventually grow up and get responsible on there drinking ( knowing when and how much).And the people who don't get responsible,are the same people who would not anyway. And one more thought, this country has for the last 20 yrs. been so concerned with the war on drugs, being politically correct, and not addressing real issues, that terrorism(a real problem by the way)has crept in while our goverment has been chasing some guy selling an once or two of pot. That people are going to find a way to get any how.We live in a country where you will get a ticket for not wearing a seat belt, but yet can talked on a cell phone while driving.Hmm, just my 2 cents!By the way if my spelling and grammer is incorrect we can just blame it on the pot!
