And why should I pay someone in a downtown bureaucubicle a hunnert bux just so I can get their permission slip to do something I inherently have the right to do?

We need to take things back to the point where you could walk into the local apothecary/corner store and buy whatever the hell you wanted, as long as you were able to afford it. Neither Organized Crime nor The Government want this.

Hmm... maybe we're talking about the same people..

I was waiting for someone to say it! haha! When the government AND criminals both want something to remain illegal....hmmm, what does that mean to the rest of us?

I agree with what some are saying that if we legalize it the govt. will have it's hands in it and finding a way to still screw us over. Decriminilization is a great option, however, the govt. doesn't give a shit about that since that won't make us money! Taxing and regulating it will make them money....so that's what we are working with.

I've read a ton on the topic of legalization and it's crazy how it even came to be illegal. Our govt. can be very persuasive to the masses when need be. It's up to us to continue to spread the truth about marijuana and hope that one day the masses can see that MJ is not the monster it's made out to be....quite the opposite, in fact!

We should be free to consume things as we please. And not have the govt. telling us what we can and can't do with our bodies. If they were so damn worried about our health, they would stop making cigarettes, booze, aspirin, fast food, etc....

It's time for a change.....Legalize it! :jointsmile:
