Yes. And there was alcohol related violence during prohibition. Don't see much of that anymore.

I don't smoke pot. I don't want to smoke pot. I won't smoke pot. But I'm not for government making it a criminal monopoly either.

Johnny, the problem isn’t just pot. Some folks like pot. Others like morphine. Others like PCP. Others like Cocaine. Others like Crystal Meth. Some like huffing things that seriously screw with their brains.

You see, there’s always going to be a no, even to adults.

Adults grow up and accept it. Children do not. And yes, I’ve met an awful lot of 50 plus year old children in my lifetime. And I’m not just limiting it to drugs.

Sure, we can legalize everything. Then there’s only a black market to our children. Of course there are groups that want them to be able to do anything they can talk them into too.

I know it seems real simple. It isn’t really.
