AZ AG Favors Legalization

[gypski]

The Arizona AG says legalizing marijuana should be debated and considered. Not because it should be legal because its less harmful then alcohol, but because of the Mexican Cartels, who he says get their greatest profits from marijuana. I don't know if that's a fact since Mexican smoke these days is dirt swag. Still.................its another AG realizing the tsunami is heading their way. :thumbsup:

John Lovell, a lobbyist for several groups of California law enforcement officials, said the plan would create a large, illicit â?? and thus untaxed â?? black market, in addition to magnifying substance abuse problems. â??The last thing we need is yet another legal substance that is mind-altering,â?� he said.

I don't know how another black market would arise if marijuana is legalized. The only bitch the cops have is some people will get pink slips. They can always try Blackwater. They recruit avidly the type of thug cop that gets his kicks arresting marijuana smokers. And lying lobbyists like Lovell need to be given pink slips too. :jointsmile:
