  • De criminalize recreational or medical drug use

    our laws are over kill when it comes to marijuana. Allow a system for growing a cash crop, recreational use, and medical use. Also stop punishing those of us with allergies with all the restrictions on medication. If crack folks want to kill themselves let them do it and you can easily profile and target crack heads without punishing the rest of us.

    I mostly agree with the original poster. It is obvious that our laws on marijuana are absurd. We shouldnt have people who would otherwise be fine citizens arrested, harassed, jailed, and fined for possession or sale of marijuana. It is a plant. I think there should be no incriminating laws regarding marijuana. I should be able to grow it, sell it, or buy it at a convenience store without intrusion and complication by the government. If anything, we can set a law for a minimum age to handle marijuana, and I say it should be age 18, just like I think alcohol should be age 18. Why? Because at age 18, one is legally responsible for his or her own actions. Therefore, we should have the ability to govern our own course of action at age 18.
