Should cannabis be legalized?

[moka88]

at least keeping it illegal is stopping a good percentage of people doing it, im pretty sure if it was legal it just wudnt be 'as fun'.

Yes it should be legal! Unfortunately all the folks who make money in the industry now (however much) will kiss those profits goodbye. Phillip Morris will make billions!

...that is the most....true statement,..... I have ever heard.

If it were legal the only market that would boom would be fertilizers, hydroponics dealers, grow lights, etc. Is hops and barley taxed? I don't know...

We don't need laws to protect children, we need parents who give a shit. When I graduated HS, my dad said "son, your mother thinks your on drugs. But I know better. I know your on drugs." He then went through all the illicit substances, giving instruction and warning, and forbidding me to try meth. I wasn't even on drugs, I just smoked herb with my German exchange student, who liked to brag that in his town people grew canna in their backyards. Then he showed me video of him and his freunds smoking a cone as a policeman strolled by. Now those are bragging rights.

It's an offence punishable by jail for farmers in Afghanistan to save seeds from season to season. They are forced to buy every year from Monsanto or some similar corporation. I don't think this could happen in the U.S., but who knows? With the decriminalization of cannabis could come certain concessions to the fascist corporate state. You might be forced to smoke only Victory brand reefers. (Anybody catch that reference?)

YESYESYES total legalization

I'd be more than down for smoking victory reefers (as long as theyre chronic) in exchange for legalization?:stoned:

You're forgettin' about hemp! Like this! http://hempmuseum.org or this http://www.suffolkhousing.org/pages/hempage.html or this http://www.ecofibre.com.au/otherprods.html I'm actually surprised to see how well the medical marijuana movement is doin!!:thumbsup: But SERIOUSLY,we need to bring HEMP to the FOREFRONT instead of the sidelines and reinstitute the Hemp For Victory program! WE'RE TALKIN MORE THAN $500 Billion a year if totally legal! http://www.textfiles.com/messages/kindbud.txt

POSSESION OF MARIJUANA SHOULD BE DECRIMINALIZED.
in the early 1930's it was made illegal in southern texas, so that racist law enforcement officers could express themselves by penalizing mexicans who liked to relax after work. the propagana started and everybody caught on.
AS for the guy who said that marijuana is a gateway drug, i disagree, the people you surround yourself with is your gateway.

I voted NO, because more money will need to be generated to make facilitys for people who abuse cannabis, and it is very possible for some people to become completely reliant on cannabis even if they arn't physiologically addicted.

[bud.dy]

i voted maybe...
i did that because i think that if it was legalized it should only be in a way that u are allowed to smoke it but it can not be commercialized or put into ads in any way cos otherwise its like u guys said before the big companies would take over and put taxes on them and everything like addicting things in them u know...

so only like that i want it legalized
cos i wldnt want to smoke weed less natural than it already is lol
\/ peace

Sorry sir,I disagree here,we use caffiene and sugar more than we use cannabis! You don't see substance abuse clinics for THOSE do ya? Furthermore,don't just focus on weed ALONE! Focus on hemp too! The many uses of hemp and the incredible profit potential it has guarantees that hemp will soon be legal! There's NO way around that!
