Legalizing will only promote the safe, and responsible distribution of Marijuana. This buisness is sustainable, it's clean, it creates tax money, and even creates jobs. Can you imagine going to the store everyday, and picking up a sack along with your gallon of milk? Instead of calling up some shady guy and 50% of the time, not even knowing what your getting? Vote yes on Prop 18.
its even more expensive now tho thats stupid and dosnt solve anything. i saw a dude get like a 4th of an ounce for 20 bucks and illigaly i can get half an ounce for the same price that solves no crime.
LEGALIZE IT!!!!!!!! Seriously. I don't use it & I advocate the use of it, but I think non-violent offenders our wasting too much tax payers money in prison 4 selling a product that is not even dangerous.
-Drugs are a billion $ business. This 30 yr war on it is a complete & utter FAIL.
-Cigs & Alcohol r legal & every1 does use them.
-Why shud the gmnt have the rite 2 tell me wat to do if I'm not hurting anybody.
-Gangs sell drugs. Taking away their business wud lessen their violence.
America's high demand 4 drugs are killing ppl in the Mexican drug war. The high murder rates in Jamaica our linked to gang violence which basically comes back down to our high demand 4 drugs.
@XXDANtheMANXXxx I am in and from Columbia, SC where 8 time olympic gold winner Michael phelps was cought hangin out smokin marijuana. Michael Phelps is living proof that the war on drugs is total bullshit. Its time we quit throwing peaceful people in cages!
@Ramsez yeah man, i been smokin every day for the past couple years. ill have a sack last me a few days, but if i end up smokin it all, half way through the day, i don't sweat it and just chill until i go get the other sack. what you smoke out of?
this whole backwards view of marijuana as a gateway drug is sickening. proof in point, i never touched pot until i was 19. i was experimenting with mdma and lsd at 17.
I think the whole world should get stoned and stay stoned 24 hrs a day. I think that when one gets up in the morning that first thing (ok maybe the 2nd thing) is light up a joint. It would be kind of like taking your vitamin for the day and gets you ready for the morning traffic. There would be no such thing as a stressful day. Could there be anything better ? (ok - sex). You know it just takes the edges off everything and lets one float like your in a rubber raft on a calm sea and say F... it.
The gov. is so worried about weed its so dumb, Amsterdam has the right idea cuz not everyone ovr there smokes cuz its not the "cool" thing to do. Here in America your being a rebel, fighting the system, here its something "cool" in Amsterdam its no big deal cuz everybody can do it. if America would just legalize it would greatly lower our crime rate and solve the problem of our over-packed jails filled with non-violent offenders placed in jail simply for marijuana. LEGALIZE NOW
people who do not smoke pot cause of the enjoyment and needing it for medical support can get a special licence and they would not be fine jailed etc... That card makes the person`s pot legal pretty much. Though if shared with some one without it may cause a fine.
lol! oaktownwhiteboy, you got it right. The rest of the world is advancing while Americans are fighting for their right to smoke pot . They want to be high through their whole pathetic liberal educated life.
I thin,k it depends on the person actually. some people use it and learn how to live righteously through it. others just use it to pad their minds in some kind of "comfort" and they waste away as a result.
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I would someday look back at Nixon (!) as the "good" (lol) Republican president - relative the "conservative" dimwits (Reagan/Bush/W) that followed.
Most liberals as well as libertarians have known for decades that the "War on Drugs" is a complete WASTE of our tax dollars.
On the other hand, the VAST majority of modern-day (Reagan/Limbaugh) "conservatives" (90+% of the Republican Party) are STILL too blind to see. THEY are BIG government in this case.
I dont know why we cant all get on the anti big government train. The republicans dont like big government in some things, and the liberals dont like it in terms of others. Lets all just work together to reduce the size of government.
The republicans are for huge, massive, enormous size government, and this is just one example of it. Another form of course is their huge, government foreign policy.
i disagree, i think in the world of biggest assholes Nixon is #1 and Bush is #2, Bush was bad but that was because he was just an idiot, Nixon was evil
You may be right about that. However, you can see the evil in Bush's face. He reminds me of Damien omen 3 especially with the black trench coat he wore. Plus he gives stupid people a bad rap
No man, he said he wanted me to bring some in next time, but I forgot to rinse the jar out first, and once he sees the mayonnaise floatin' around, he'll think I'm on some weird drug again, and I'm really gonna f**k with his mind this time.
Obamaaaaa!!! all left wing followers join me! we must unite! democrats and liberals, view my page! we are the same! we are Obama's sheep and he is our shephard! we must follow him to change!
small percentage of people who do pot become paranoid when they smoke. and it can make you less productive, and to be less productive in a hard-line capitalist/christian society would be a sign of impending doom to some where the floodgates to sin would open. opponents use false logic to scare people into voting no. just like gay marriage, the reason was if you passed that then next, something worse and it becomes a slippery slope where sin snowballs. faith doesn't have to be backed by facts
I LOVED the comment from the Schaffer Commission. That needs to be played OVER AND OVER AND OVER on YouTube - both the summary key points - and the entire presentation.
Nixon was a lying, theiving fraud from day one - it is so obvious - and, like every Rethuglican, is a traitor and responsible for destroying our great country - our country that was founded by HEMP GROWERS (Go G Washington!!!).
I would prefer kids smoke marijuana over drinking, studies have proven that people can still drive while intoxicated on marijuana.
Pot is the key to solving many of our nations' problems, there is money to be made in marijuana, and it's a safer alternative to both alcohol and harder drugs.
whiteguysamurai: I so, so TOTALLY agree with you! I have living PROOF of precisely what you posted ~ and ONLY because weed isn't yet legal, I risk losing my son to either his own or another's drucken driving at least once a week! :(
i dont mean that as an insult either,just fact, marijuana does NOT kill, i dont know where you heard that , do the research, u will not find anyone,also research the reason it is illegal,it has nothing to do with health, it was because racial issues, campaign led by henry anslinger,i wont explain too much, u do the research,and the gateway theory is just that, a theory.....my theory is that because pots crimilization it puts cannabis users in contact with dealers who also have hardcore drugs
There's evidence that the original anti-pot legislation was heavily linked to political influence by the textile industry (because they feared hemp production competing with cotton).
That would explain the reason hemp production is still not allowed for industrial purposes. Too much government involvement from both parties has made a mockery of our economy.
There's a book called The Emperor Wears No Clothes that details the history of this, which I think happened sometime during the Depression. I haven't read it but a housemate of mine did and said it was good.
I do not smoke weed at all or I think ever will but why not legalize it? it is absolutely less harmful than alcohol and it falls right bellow cigaretes...
Guy says, "wish someone would come along and turn me on to a clue bout what's going on here!". Truth is: What if he never shows up? You need a better plan then that!
we need to demand full legalization of the cannabis plant in all it's forms in any way whatsoever. If we are continually denied and ignored, the only logical solution is revolution. Revolution is justified by the Declaration of Independence. if our founding fathers saw the state this country was in now, they would wonder why a revolution hasn't happened yet.

I'm definitely FOR LEGALIZATION & take my hemp hat off to those countries that have already done so!
There'd be a lot less dealing in hard & harmful drugs & alcohol consumption ~ & unlike alcohol, WEED / POT doesn't lead to aggression & violent behaviour. I'm just not fond of the idea of mixing it with harmful & very toxic cigarette tobacco, & much more in favour of either baking it in HEALTHY cookies or smoking it through a thoroughly cleansed bong / water pipe or whatever they'd called.
