Nixon won a landslide against McGovern in 1972 by running against "acid, amnesty, and abortion".

I worry that legalizing marijuana throughout the country will create more people who are unfit to work or parent. OTOH, I don't want to put people in jail for harming themselves.

Do you think marijuana should be legalized?

More scare stories against its legalization? Yet we have no problem giving psychotropics to kids for BS reasons.

Not for recreational use.

I echo those sentiments. How do we do decriminalization without creating more users?

Marijuana should be decriminalized. Should not be legal however.

Some people can use it and some people can’t. But the same is true for anti-anxiety and anti-depression drugs.

I can use MJ but I am very sensitive to it. I get really stoned and sleep hard but I haven’t tried it since 1987.

I am 100% against the federal prohibition of cannabis.

I am 100% for states deciding the issue for themselves.

” It found that most of the killers believed they were in danger from the victim, and almost two-thirds reported misusing cannabis—more than alcohol and amphetamines combined.”

No mention as to whether those killers were high at the time of the killing. Nor any evidence presented that pot was the cause of the paranoid delusion.

And ALL the studies the author cites are of similar bullsh!t.

Pot does not make people violent.

Anyone who says it does is ignorant.

Alcohol and meth make people violent.

Today’s typical product is 20+ times stronger than in the 1960s.

I am Conservative and smoke.

NO it should not be legalized.

I smoke in the privacy of my home ONLY.
I never drive under the influence EVER.

I think legalization will effect our society as a whole in a bad way.

Its what the liberals want. The Dumbing down of America
