They probably don't want their kids downing a six-pack before school either, but that doesn't mean Prohibition itself wasn't worse than having alcohol legally available.

I didn't ask about beer I asked about pot but if you don't want to answer the question so be it.

I did 'answer' it, hence the word "either" in the reply. Do you grasp what that implies, or have you had too many beers before posting? :)

It has come to light that the Schedule I designation for cannabis was entirely political. The end of Prohibition II with respect to cannabis on the federal level is probably going to come from that direction to spare politicians being forced to vote on it.

They should vote on it though, because Prohibition II is a disease worse than what it proposes (and fails) to cure. We can't get the 4th amendment back, nor begin to roll back the police state its abnegation has caused, until the War on Drugs is recognized for the failure it is.
