““The Pharma lobby is one of the most powerful lobbies in Washington. Bottom line is that decriminalization will hurt their profit margins. Think of all the drugs that will be replaced with a product that can not be owned by the industry.”The sad part about that is it is true.
That is the primary reason marijuana remains illegal IMO
Since they can’t patent a plant, marijuana will have a hard time becoming as legal as alcohol.
- I have begun to believe that this site is funded by the US government.
The admin is nothing more than a government tool.
- ADMIN,
“It is impossible for me to tell who has an addiction problem and who doesn’t. You write really well and appear to have a healthy life from what I can tell. However; I would have be around someone for a long period of time to determine whether he/she needed help.”
Guess what.
It isn’t your job to decide who in America has an addiction.
That is between them and their Dr.Your whole argument is you don’t want weed legal because you can become addicted to it.
What about people that become addicted to sex or food or video games?
Should we regulate everything that could be addictive? That would be impossible, since you can become addicted to anything.The better option is to follow Portugal’s example and decriminalize all drugs. Let the Dr’s deal with this health issue, rather than allowing the police to do it.
We are wasting BILLIONS trying to make these people criminals.
The best way to address this problem is to give it over to the Dr’sAll the money that is currently being spent on fighting drugs can easily be funneled into health care instead. Solving both problems at once.
Our society will be richer, safer and healthier if we follow Portugals example and abolish prohibition.
- ‘Aren’t the addicts the ones that should decide since we are the ones with the problem? ‘
No.
The general public should vote for each community.
Using your argument. Obese people can petition to ban fast food restaurants because they can’t resist the temptation of a burger.
I can’t drink alcohol. I love alcohol, but drinking it could send me to the hospital so I choose not to drink it. I don’t expect the rest of my community to stop drinking alcohol just because I can’t.
Your whole argument is flawed.
Everyone has a temptation for something that is either bad for them or dangerous.
It is up to each individual person to accept responsibility for his/her actions and stop looking to the government to solve your problems for you.
- Man you just don’t get it do you.
Drug use didn’t go up.
People came out of the closet and got help.
I swear you are not going to listen to any information that disregards your stance.
You are a tool and someone needs to shut this site down.
The absolute lack of any factual information here is mind boggling.

Well……….heroine is just a plant extract.So is cocaine.
Just because something comes from a plant does not mean that it is not physically addictive
Look at nicotine.
The bottom line is……cannabis the least addictive ‘drug’ out there.
Caffeine is more addictive.
There is no reason for cannabis to be illegal.

“Someone, somewhere cares about how youth lives are being destroyed.”Bull.
If they truly cared about the youth
we would take these illegal drugs out of the hands of drug dealers
and put them in the hands of licensed people
people who have to abide by the lawit is a fact that kids can get weed easier than cigarettes or alcohol
why is this you may ask
because alcohol and cigarettes are regulated
the people selling it can loose their license if they sell to minorsnothing happens to the drug dealer for selling to a minor.
The only PROVEN way to keep drugs away from kids is to legalize them
- Legalize Weed
Willy said : “there’s is no way to get mentally addicted to marijuana. ”Marijuana addiction is purely mental.
It is just like being addicted to food or sexmarijuana is not physically addicting
meaning that there are no physical withdrawls from smoking marijuanajust like there are no physical withdrawls from not having sex or not eating greasy foods
- Legalize Weed
LOLOut of all the replies on this site 99% of them are pro-marijuana
The average American who doesn’t smoke weed wants it legal.
the money spent on trying to fight it is a huge HUGE wastelegalize ALL drugs, regulate and tax them
and you will solve Americas ‘drug problem’the biggest problem with illegal drugs is that
they are easier for our children to get than
tobacco or alcohol, that is a fact that many
drug war advocates don’t want to acceptthe money saved on the drug war combined
with the tax revenue generated by the now
legal drugs could easily pay for public health care
and have PLENTY of money left overthe ‘war on drugs’ is a gigantic failure and needs to be abolished
prohibition doesn’t stop drug use, it only makes it worse - Legalize Weed
Amber says:All these people that keep saying, “You can’t die from pot,” are sadly misinformed. The human body is only able to process so much of any substance before it overloads and shuts down. You can die from ingesting too much water…that’s right, WATER!!! So can someone overdose on pot? YES. Most likely method: ingestion…………………….
Yes, it is true that you can OD on water.
But it is virtually impossible to OD on marijuana.Amber, you need to do some research before you spout your mouth off.
Everyone (mainly the ADMIN) should watch this movie called The Union.
It shows the stupidity of the drug war.
Many people in law enforcement and the government agree that marijuana should be legalized and taxed.
