I obviously think its destructive too. I don’t think making it legal at any level is particularly helpful. Again, for the reason of the third-party effects, if it only harmed the users it’s on them but it doesn’t.
Isn't it still illegal re: the harm it brings to others? Where it isn't, laws are certainly needed. But that is another matter beyond the discussion of whether or not weed is legal.
As has been pointed out by others up thread, if society concludes that the illegality of weed is unacceptable, that society may enact laws against it.
I personally think it is similar to alcohol in that prohibition was an awful way of trying to control its usage.
As a former addict, I can attest to the devastating effect of drugs. But making them illegal is not an effective way of preventing abuse.
The greatest weapon against drugs and alcohol is the TRUTH about them.
