I'm much more ambivalent about the harder drugs where I just advocate harm-reduction policies, but there's absolutely no rational argument for the illegal status of marijuana. None whatsoever.

Agreed, and that's where I come apart from many libertarians. Some libertarians think that the government has no business regulating plutonuim.

I think that heroin and cocaine and possibly crystal meth could be reasonably regulated by the government as toxic because of their predictable addictive and psychosis-inducing properties.

Marijuana just has no business in the same legal category.

Not that I expect any of the VERY DISHONEST pro-WOD posters on this thread will ever be persuaded to see reason.....

You still have a chance. A slim one, but still, a chance...
