“Prohibitionists have always been Progressive do-gooders, well intended.”

They are not well intended.

Not in the least.

“They are not well intended.”

Their intent is to improve society and protect people from their own weaknesses.

Their method is to punish/destroy those who transgress.

I have been an advocate for full legalization for at least 40 years. I’ve encountered every variety of prohibitionist. But those two themes above are consistent.

Hell, 40 years ago I used to smoke it. And cigarettes. And drink whiskey too.

Then I got smart and only enjoy the buzz of coffee.

But I can say, without doubt, more harm is done by whiskey and cigarettes than marijuana...and by a large margin. Both individually and in the social aggregate.

It’s not even close.

And don’t even get me going on pain pills. They are as bad as methamphetamine, both individually and in the social aggregate.
