As soon as the demonization of smoking a cigarette quits...I’ll think about legalisation.

Why are you making your thinking - and presumably, also your ACTING - against something you imply you realize is UNJUST contingent upon the consistent behavior of others?

What you wrote is like saying "I'll think about allowing Blacks to drink out of the same water fountain as soon as 'they' stop [insert any other arbitrary morally reprehensible condition in the world]."

And "demonization" is not to be compared to "illegalization." Getting cited and having to pay a $200 fine for smoking in a restaurant is NOT comparable with being thrown in the pokey and getting anally raped because you were sitting at home smoking some marijuana you grew in your own flower box.

I’m still rereading your post. I guess I’m not deep enough to understand you.

From what I understand...a small amount of marijuana or even a plant at home...is a ticketed offense. Much like smoking a cigarette in a restaurant. (at least it is where I live). You may not have to worry about being raped.

Now....if you have a field growing..you may need to be worried.

Since I am a wino..I really don’t care. ;)
