Also, if you agree that drug lords are an enormous problem in Latin America, why are you doing your part to support them by purchasing their products?

That's why I think it should be legal. Put one and one together for Christ's sake.


So you would let pot come before your hate of Big Drug dealers? Sounds like an addiction. Tell me, when and if you have kids(if because pot will ruin your life if you don't quit soon) would you want them to do it?

"hydra"

Yeah, you'd know.
I mean, your drug dealer is a trustworthy guy, right?
"SEAL"


I've smoked WITH my dealer all the time and I've known him for many years (way before he was even a dealer). He's really friendly and looks out for me all the time. So yes, he is a trustworthy guy. Thanks for asking.

cool, can I borrow some money?

You can bet that the "big tabacco" companies that start making it will add nicotine. Instant addiction. That, combined with the mental effects, will make it worse than tabacco over a short period of time.

I've thought about this a lot, actually. Companies add things to tobacco because smoking tobacco by itself sucks. It's not smooth, it tastes gross, and it does almost nothing to you (for the record, I don't smoke tobacco or like to). Smoking marijuana by itself is just fine--no additives required. People who smoke pot WANT pure pot. If companies started putting other stuff in the pot, people would most likely switch to a pure source (street dealers, or alternative companies).

Let's not forget the millions and millions of dollars that would be saved on FBI and DEA funding. I'm assuming if it were ever to become legal, it would be taxed heavily like alcohol and tobacco, providing even more revenue for the goverment.

Who cares about money when we have a country full of mindless Zombies to lazy to work or provide for the families they have. Some of my friends have already ruined their lives because of their obsession with this drug. Now one of them doesnt go to college and spent the last 6 months in rehabilitation after getting a woman pregnant. If I could legally break the legs of his drug dealer, I would.
