Let's consider..

The Counter Culture would fade away. No more 'heros' fighting The Man. No more big profits associated with it so no one would bother to develop it. All that great music, radical politics, the sense of righteous indignation that rises up to fight the Oppression--that would all vanish. Hell, even this board would disappear. People would just loose interest.

Yup, the magical herb would be robbed of all it's glory for sure....and this generation's hippies would become Conservative Religious Republicans just like the baby boomers did.

They say when the gods curse a man they give him the desires of his heart...lol
You would change your tune if you got busted for weed.

There still would be a lot of oppression to fight against. The neocons, the war, the Fed and the IRS raping our wallets illegally.

There would still be great weed-inspired music and culture. My parents used to be hippies, and now they are Conservative Religious Republicans, and it has nothing to do with weed being legalized, because it hasn't been yet.

People like NORML are heroes to me. I take legalization of marijuana very seriously. Thousands of people are put in prison every year just for pot. If you went to prison for two years just because you had a pipe in your car when you got pulled over for a tail light out, I am sure you would want it to be legal then.

Especially since you can't get a job when you get out as a "convicted felon."

There is nothing cute about the War on Drugs. It's a war on the citizenry of the republic.
