Where I come from, pot is much easier for underage kids to obtain. Kids were getting stoned regularly in 7th grade. Drugs are much less bulky, and therefore easier to conceal. Next?

That is my point, if it were sold like alcohol it would be much harder for kids to get
the question was why is pot easier to get than booze
because booze is regulated and controled and sold in stores, the owner of the business stands
to lose out if caught selling to minors.
again logic, is something the Wod supporters lack..........

Try this on for size. The reason minors can get pot with relative ease is that it is an ILLEGAL economy.

Where I grew up, alcohol sales were illegal. It was terribly easy for us high school kids to get alcohol, because those involved in selling alcohol were already breaking the law - if selling is already illegal, why not sell to kids? Across the river, where alcohol sales were legal, the kids had a terrible time buying it, because there was no illegal alcohol economy. They came over to our town to buy beer.
