Drugs are bad, plants are good.
Maybe I’m nuts, but things that occur in nature wouldn’t seem to require “Legalization”, and that’s just one of my problems with this entire discussion.
The language is perverted to the point that reasonable people cannot even discuss the issue.
I don’t want, and don’t believe the U.S. Constitution allows for, the FedGov to outlaw things that are clearly not within their purview. The states are free to regulate the consumption of any substance, based on the will of the people within that state and those people’s ability to assert their will.
We could have a completely different discussion around the trustworthiness of Prescription Medication and the pushers who sell it, but that’s for another time...
Hemlock? Deer ticks? West-Nile carrying mosquitoes? Oh, wait- that's regulation, not legalization.
