There’s got to be a reason why the drug has been illegal for so long. And yeah, freedom is not a black and white issue. Enjoy the regulation and taxation to what is currently an unregulated and non taxed item in most states. It’s like the difference between two women I know. The 1st raised her kid with a message of abstinence, the 2nd went for providing the child with birth control pills. Which one was the conservative and which the liberal? Knowing that people are most likely going to engage in an activity that isn’t good for them do you show due diligence by explaining why they shouldn’t or just throw your hands in the air and say have at it, here’s something to facilitate the deed.

Blind trust in government is not a conservative position.

A conservative does the former while NOT banning it just because it "isn’t good for them." And for government cease criminalizing an activity is NOT to "facilitate" it; getting drunk and overeating are legal.

“There’s got to be a reason why the drug has been illegal for so long. “

Actually cannabis was legal for thousands of years & was used medicinally (and recreationally I’m sure) in the USA prior to the early 1900’s. Since the federal gov’t has unconstitutionally prevented real research from being done in our country there is no real scientific reason Fedzilla can point to as the reason cannabis is a schedule 1 drug.
