...including decriminalization of marijuana, a drug he considers much less dangerous than the government claims.
This is the problem Marijiana isn't that dangerous and most americans know it.All of us know someone who has been killed by alchohol or tobacco but I have never seen or heard of anyone killed by smoking pot.Show me the bodies? The pro legalization people and the War on drugs people have this ridiculas all or nothing attitude that just doesn't make sense.Everyone admits that drugs like heroin and methamphetimine are dangerous and should be illeagal But why not legalize the softcore stuff thats less dangerous than stuff you can leagally buy in a convieniance store?The stoners would be happy and the "drug warriors" could still chase the Cocain and heroin cartels.And we'd SAVE MONEY.duh!

Nope. Self-imposed dangers are none of the government's business.
