Most of the people on "medical" marijuana are burnouts with a manufactured reason to attempt to get bombed somewhat legally.

By that logic, alcohol should be banned as well.

Sounds like you need a Nanny State to tell you what to eat, drink or smoke.

Some of us don't.

How stupid.
No, it should be legalized so that unemployed black people living in the ghetto will get high, stay high and forget their plight....Why actually work to make your life better when you can just light up?

SMH. People of African descent should know by now that they will be targeted more than others based on their appearance in this country AND some have contributed to that perception. Stay away from the drugs and there will be less of a problem.

Not that I don't believe marijuana should be legalized...

Utter BS eh? Of course you would think so given you're probably working for one of the special interest groups who want to continue to with it's prohibition! Wouldn't want to disrupt your bread and butter and obvious easy pay day by prosecuting people for consuming a GOD given plant! Of course you have heard of the many uses for industrial hemp. Nope, let's just continue to cut down trees, and make goods out of toxic plastic too! We can also continue to buy all of our clothes from overseas too! Let's continue to pump people full of big pharma's crap, because they need to keep people sick to make their money!

Why are you against people who want a safer option as a remedy for whatever ails them? Why are you against the idea of using something for industrial use that is safer, as well as more efficient? In the instance of making paper, it's a much shorter growing season, and you could make a much better paper. Legalization of industrial hemp could restart the textile industry, and therefore produce a superior product over that stuff made in the sweat shops located in 3rd world s*** holes, where human rights isn't exactly a priority!!!

Finally, what GOD DAMNED right do you have to tell me or anyone else what they can, or cannot consume, when they're harming nobody in the process. It is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous that alcohol and tobacco are legal to purchase and consume (both of which I support despite the health risks) and cannabis is not? Stop with the damn lies, and propaganda regarding cannabis! And stop greasing the palms of the politicians to continue it's prohibition, because you're afraid of losing money! The war on drugs is an absolute failure, is immoral (especially a war on cannabis) and does nothing but ruins more lives than it helps! Unless of course you're OK with further growing of the police state, and criminalizing more Americans? Me thinks that you are.

Poor blacks sell the stuff and well off whites buy. I'll bet there are more customers than sellers.

I would make all the proscribed drugs legal and let God sort out who could handle using them.

Greg, I have to agree. Darwinism. So be it. If you're stupid enough to partake in dangerous crap like prescription pain pills to the point of abuse, well... you reap what you sow. Having said that though, drug use and abuse when no crimes have been committed should be treated as medical issue, and not a criminal issue. Those who want help, will clean up their act. Those who don't... well....nature's way of thinning the herd, I guess.

I'm thinking that evolution would work itself out in a hurry. Imagine the emergency rooms in hospitals and clinics. OMG....as much as I hate over-regulation...gawd, that's a frightening thought.
