This is why I think we are still a decade or two away from federal legalization in the U.S. It's a shame because this issue is one that could be bipartisan. The divide on it is more generational than it is partisan, but the Republican Party seems ready to go all in on prohibition. Meanwhile, the Democrats are becoming far more comfortable with openly supporting legalization.
Question for conservatives: How does keeping marijuana illegal protect the moral fabric of our society?
No one cares if u smoke weed bro.
I think u need to chill a bit. Try some indica.
Weed is incredibly easy to get anywhere in the USA.
Sure it would be great if it was legal but, don’t let other people take away your enjoyment of life.
I don’t need to conform to anyone else’s rules, and I enjoy the herb just fine in a red state.
1. Government isn't moral.
2. Government isn't society
3. Conservatives are not for more government.
4. Democrats are not for legalization. They proved that when they controlled Congress and the White House and didn't legalize freedom.
Neither are Republicans. They couldn't make government smaller by abolishing ObamaCare or legalize marijuana while they ruled the presidency and Congress.
Generally speaking, there still isn't a dime's worth of difference between the Republican and Democrat parties.
I was raised in hail fire and brimstone baptist type church in the 60's. My family, my mother and and most people I was raised with still are. I have lived all over the country and have recently returned to my home town and am acclimating. I really cannot say when it was, it might have been when Obama started running, but at some point religion and politics merged in their minds. Maybe it was Roe v Wade? But now it seems religion and politics are so intertwined I cant tell them apart anymore. And then there is Trump. How could a group that truly believes have him as their leader?
In the case of Evangelicals, their no. 1 issue, by far, is to get abortion banned and will support any president who claims to be pro-life no matter how lacking in morals and integrity he was in the past or currently.
Make it legal. Tax it, make a killing. Take those taxes and actually do something helpful for americans, instead of putting them in jail, like the government used to with alcohol possession. Prohibition of marijuana is stupid and unnecessary.

prohibition of anything is stupid, and anti-freedom

Marijuana will eventually become legal, for the same reason that our freeway speeding camera's were taken down. Because a lot of powerful influential people happen to smoke it
