you need to stop drinking prior to posting such a lame argument.
One point you had right MJ versus booze there is no comparison,
Pot is less addictive, and less damaging to the body, as well the effects don't last as long.

comparing pot use to other crimes such as rape, murder, and theft is like comparing underage drinking to those same crimes.
It just doesn't compare

As far as government intervention, it would be on the same scale as what the ABC does now.

The kids of today, of course can get booze, but pot is usually easier to get. I never said they had a problem getting booze, just that pot is much easier to get because it is not regualted by the gov't.

Sorry, but I don't drink either. I stick to the stone cold sober facts. You should try it sometime.

My comparison is 100% valid. Perhaps you missed the point, so I'll break it down for you. Things are illegal because they are WRONG, not because making them illegal stops the activity. You try to apprehend and punish the wrong-doers, but you will never stop crime completely. Think of any illegal activity you want and ask yourself if that activity would increase or decrease if it were made legal. The answer should be obvious.

Yes, kids can get their hands on pot. And crack. And heroin. Etc., etc., etc. I suppose we should just make these drugs legal and easily available. And watch youth drug usage plunge? Gimme a break.
