Sorry, I don’t want legalizing but I would support decriminalizing, and let states decide.
We’ve got more important things to spend money on than putting people in prison for growing and partaking in something proven less dangerous than alcohol.

The war on drugs has been a colossal failure so far. It’s time to start fighting it a different way.

I am also for choking off the southern border, but any one who believes that will slow the flow of drugs into this country is delusional.

It’s simple capitalism that’s the answer. Supply and Demand. If you get demand under control, supply dries up. The other way around has never worked.

Amen!

If you get demand under control, supply dries up.

If we don't put people in prison for partaking, how do we get demand under control?
