We’ve wasted far too much money trying to get people to not smoke a plant.

Treat it like booze in the eyes of the law and be done with it.

Does that mean that all the “Mules” packing in MJ over the southern border need to do is to get an “Import License” and declare that they are taking it to Colorado? Will there be tariffs? /sarc Maybe the Kennedy family can replenish their fortune by getting out of “Scotch Whiskey” and into marijuana. America...the land of opportunity even for shanty Irish.

They can legalize it, but what they can’t control is the fact it can be grown in your back yard, no way for them to tax it like they do cigs or booze. No one is talking about the dangers of it, being higher than cigs in causing lung cancer.

The pot heads know they can get scripts for it easily. And I don’t want to be on the road with a person high on pot any more than I want to be with one drunk on booze. Both are dangerous!

I agree. Punish people for bad behavior. If someone decided to get drunk or stoned, and winds up hurting someone, it's their behavior that's at fault.

Same deal with guns. Someone robs a bank with a gun, or murders someone... punish them for those acts... it's not the gun's fault.

Why not? Not much difference and booze and pot. I am tired of this police/ prison/ union tax payer money laundering crap.
