Nothing worong with saying it is bad. I don't somke the stuff because it is expensive, and illegal. The point i am making is WE MUST TAKE THE PROFIT OUT OF THE DRUG TRADE. This would make it not so cool to do drugs. Now for example, there are people who get drunk until they cannot walk, after legalizing drugs, I am sure there will be drug heads who are so smashed that they cannot see straight? But at least we can save thousands of black kids who grow up on the trade, and reduce the crime associated with dealers turf protection war.

I can respect your argument.

The thing I find disturbing is that so few of the pro pot people posting here can concede that you can make it legal but make the dangers of the substance clear (ie, make it not so cool).

Its almost as if they not only want it legalized but they don't want it criticized.

To be blunt (no pun intended), some of their behavior IS starting to look like the behavior of addicts: "There's no problem...it isn't addictive...I use all the time with no problem..." etc., all with an incredible indignation and anger at anyone who even SUGGESTS its a problem.
