No we're not on board with it. It's a freedom of choice issue. I say it will leave more room in the prisons for real criminals and take away gang power that revolves solely around drugs. What do you think turf wars are?

Just because our nation can't get enough of these dumbass laws doesn't mean that other nations should follow suit at our behest just because we can't get our druggies under control.

The Drug War is a failure....and for the life of me, i can't understand why Americans can't get that through their damn thick ass skulls.

At Americas summit, Obama says no to legalizing drugs - latimes.com

Agree. That's why Obama is not really a liberal when it comes to social issues.

hey now that makes too much senese and no bill or amendment would pass as it would solve alot of issues and save alot of money on something that there is no way to stop or prevent and by making it illegal we force it to become a source of income for gangs and drug cartels...

Actually if our Govronments ever did pass a bill to repeal the drug act then I would be wondering what is going on... As they never give us back freedoms we had before and save us billions if not a trillion in spending and make sense and move us to forward to actually be doing something to reduce the national debt and with drugs being legal and sold and taxed creating revenue to pay for other things like new infastructure and creating new Jobs.

I mean sounds like we would live in a free country and also reduce big Govronment in our lifes and that sounds like how we were supposed to live like but over time lost alot of our freedoms..
