"That would be exactly the same as saying "Nobody claims it's harmless" wouldn't it?"

No, and you know it. Marijuana is not illegal because it is bad for your lungs.

"... I'm better than you because I don't do drugs type people ..."

Many pro-marijuana people on this forum claim not to do drugs, so how could I have that attitude? It just comes down to the fact that I have yet to hear one good reason why pot (just pot) should be legalized. (As an example, if it could be shown that people would switch from alcohol to pot if pot were legal, I would consider that to be a good reason.)

Now, I have heard good arguments as to why ALL drugs should be legal. I've heard good arguments as to why the drug legalization decision should be turned over to the states. I've heard good arguments as to why marijuana should be decriminalized.

But legal? Nationwide? Nope. I see no overall benefit for the nation as a whole if marijuana were legal.

My point WAS that ALL DRUGS SHOLD BE LEGAL. So should prostitution, gambling and many other vices. As you stated "you don't see a good reason to make it legal". My whole point is - I don't give a rat's butt about WHAT freedoms YOU personally prefer. Either believe in freedom and defend it - or move over to DU with the other fascists. If your not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.
