Prohibition has been such a smashing success, hasn’t it?

“Prohibition has been such a smashing success, hasn’t it?”

That is an entire other subject. But it is ironic that weed is against US law and so is ILLEGAL immigration of armed drug cartel organized crime...but no one is doing much about that!

OH Boy! You ar asking to get flamed by the moralists on Freep who say alcohol is fine...mj not.
there is NO logic to this.

the straw man is always, “well, we have a bad enough problem with alcohol..we can’t let up on prohibition on mj...”

Get used to it...It doesn’t matter if we have gangs here, it doesn’t matter if we spend millions on the GREAT WAR ON DRUGS, it doesn’t matter if we fill up our prisons, who cares about our natural resources being ruined? Who cares about the lack of tax money that could help our economy and help addicts to rehab?

simple answer: alcohol good. marijuana bad.

oh, BTW...to the moralists..spare me your logical retorts” you better get more recovery ex hippie.” ( this is usually the ONLY “logical?” response I get.
