Shouldn’t be legalized, but I’ve no issue with decriminalization. Our courts and law enforcement agencies have no business being clogged up with pursuing it.
I can't understand that line of thinking. If you are going to decriminalize, why not just go one step further and legalize and take all those billions and billions of dollars being made on the marijuana trade away from organized crime? That, and we'd separate marijuana from the hard stuff. The meth and cocaine and so on wouldn't be flowing through the same channels that marijuana flows through so using marijuana wouldn't increase exposure to the hard stuff so much. Is it because you think more people would use it if it was completely legal than would if it was just not technically a crime?
