Woot!

Just another reason it should be legal but the government makes too much money from it being illegal.

You guys should really get into edibles or using a vaporizer.........

I've been doing an infusion with garlic, organic oil and organic butter. Great for pasta

I guess my only question on this one would be..... How the Hell did Bob Marley die of cancer. The man smoked the herb religiously, every day.

...using a vaporizer.........

+1 on this... Vapos are AMAZING. If you've never tried one, I strongly suggest you do.

+2...on vaporizers.

the government makes too much money from it being illegal.

... how do you figure that?

[kwame k]

Ever see the numbers on the War on Drugs?

It's staggering how much money is wasted on it and how many nonviolent offenders are sitting in jail right now. All in an effort to legislate morality. The money generated in fines, lawyer fees and such are just insane.

In the case of pot....all for a weed that damn near anyone can grow!

Legalize it, regulate it, and be done with it.

[FORD]

Not to mention the entire privatized prison industry. THAT is what should be illegal. I don't understand how it's not. Without drug convictions - which are usually weed - those shitholes wouldn't exist.

Hell, even the state prisons profit from the slave labor of drug convictions. I've seen crews from "Correctional Industries" come into the office and build furniture. These people ain't serial killers and pedophiles.

[Guitar Shark]

Of course, kwame. What I am not understanding is the argument that the government "makes money" on it. It looks to me like it spends money -- a LOT of money -- fighting the war on drugs. Fines may be a source of income but I would expect the costs (policing, judicial resources, attorney fees, prison costs) would significantly outweigh any amounts collected in fees.

I support legalizing it, by the way. Regulate and tax the hell out of it, but don't criminalize it!

[kwame k]

Sure the Government spends a ton of money policing it but look at all the industries that pop up because of it!

Rehab, tethers, mandatory drug tests, classes and on and on. Millions are made off the system and millions are employed to enforce/feed off of it.

[kwame k]

Look at how much money is spent per second on this.
