What is the consensus (if there is one) on this conservative site about this issue?

The limited-government legalizers are IMHO a majority; the nanny-statist criminalizers are loud but (again IMHO) in the minority.

“Raw sales pitch for marijuana by Yahoo “news.””

It’s already sold and will pass Congress easily. And will be signed by POTUS.

And much to your chagrin, there’s not a damn thing you can do about it.

Marijuana is not smoked, in most cases, throughout the day. The amount of smoke taken in, in no way compares.

It is MUCH safer than alcohol. Do you drink?

It is time to legalize it nationally. It is cleaner than alcohol. Domestic violence with marijuana as a factor, basically does not exist. People are going to partake, as they did during prohibition. Regulate it, tax it, take the business away from the cartels.

I don’t think the cartels need any more illegal money!

Legal pot -> more stoners -> more burnout losers -> more Democrat voters.

Yup. Exactly. It's WHY the left ALWAYS is always for legalization of illegal drugs.

Problem is, everyone is already on it, except us. At a law school I’m familiar with, even the top students are puffing away in the parking lot. I know lawyers who are puffing away, and maybe even doing worse drugs like cocaine.

This stuff is everywhere almost as if there aren’t any laws against it.

I don’t know of any fatties collecting public assistance just because they’re fat. Can’t say the same for druggies or alkies who are non-functional.

You are inferring only rabid marijuana promoters like you belong here?

No.

FR has always been a place for robust and contentious debate on all subjects.

The reason YOU (MarvinStinson) don’t belong is because you snarkily initiate name calling and are generally an asshole.
