My thought is certain recreational drugs, such as marijuana, should remain off legal limits for the under 18 year olds, but become legally available when used in the proper environment. In many ways, pot is quite similar to alcohol, in that they should be used responsibly. My thought is to make the sale of marijuana less profitable by making it legal for home use. Personally, I don't smoke anything now, and do not want the smell of tobacco or pot on my clothes should I visit a public place, such as a shopping mall or bus stop. I know this idea has been kicked around for years, and hasn't really gained traction. My concern is, even if pot was declared legal and open for adult use, how would those newly arrived Mexcian gangs deal with this market loss? Would they end up trying to raid, ruin and close down any public seller of these formerly illegal substances? I think for the first few years, there may be such push back and attempts at intimidation by those losing business to the open market. Its' not really my fight anymore, but, so many cities say they are inching toward bankruptcy, this new open market may help to boost city funds. Yes, it would be a bold step in the cold, deep waters of chance. But it may work. We go rid of prohibition of alcohol, and the country survived the gang's angry wrath back then too.
In my younger days, I thought the same. However, once we cross the Rubicon, then what? Legalize Hashish?, Opium?, etc. etc. Once the precedent has been set, then it is downhill.

another entry into the Big Book of ZOT!!!
There are many reasons why people get banned, most likely this person is a retread. There is nothing to be afraid when it comes to the Viking Kitties. Just enjoy our antics. Don't be afraid to join in.
You are correct, and there is good evidence that use of marijuana in the teen and young adult years is especially problematic, with even a month of regular use risking permanent damage.

If you don’t want to smoke it don’t! what gives you; or anyone else the right; to tell someone else what they can do?
this is the same rhetoric we hear from pro abortion liberals. Don’t want an abortion? Don’t have one. What gives anyone the right to tell someone else what they can do is the freedom of living in a civilized Society with laws that protect us all.
I am little slow on this end. Interesting,...hummm, Yes, a Viking tomcat, I like the sound of that. I feel purrfectly suited to my newly assigned task. I like taunting, I enjoy toying with the progressive mouses. But I need to run out and by the hat. See ya later :-)
pot and homo special laws, is that all you left wing kooks think about, ?
All you want is to have the laws for what you want, to hell if the country goes to crap and we have dopes and turd pokers running about telling others how we should all change, even the communists back in 63 wanted drugs legal because they knew dopes would be dopes and the country goes to hell
I too love the Viking kitty graphics. Viking kitties are very clever. I guess eating Ludesfisk made them that way.
May I also recommend the kitty ping list if you are a lover of all things feline?
Amen. Like alcoholism, the do-gooder progressives will reclassify a BEHAVIOR as a DISEASE and we'll end up paying for it.
LOL!
Very nice! Great helmet, too.
I’ll save it in my Rogues’ Gallery.
Notted, the Viking Tomcat! I like it.
“Psychedelic”
BUMP!
LOL!
