Obama Says Legalizing Drugs is Worthy of Debate
Loading...
Uploaded by CopsSayLegalizeDrugs on Jan 27, 2011
Responding to a question from Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP), President Barack Obama says that legalizing and regulating marijuana and other drugs is "an entirely legitimate topic for debate" but that he remains opposed to legalization. The question is from MacKenzie Allen, a former deputy sheriff who did policing in Los Angeles, CA and King County (Seattle), WA.

If all drugs were legalised, that would open up the prisons to make room for convicted paedeophiles and child pornographers who should be given much stiffer sentences. There is no doubt in my mind which people are the greatest danger to our children.

@l30n4rd01981 i'm not sure that's the best way to go about arguing against the prohibition of marijuana.. you make it sound like it should not be illegal because when alcohol was illegal people still drank. so based on your logic, heroin, meth etc. should also be legal because prohibition doesn't work?

Yeah, nobody who is worth listening to is pretending these things aren't drugs. But the worst experience of my life was acid related. I can't imagine myself ever doing acid again because of it, but the idea that that experience should have landed me in jail is ridiculous to me. I've known addicts, and I agree it should be a public health issue - which is exactly why I believe in legalisation or at least decriminalisation. If substance abuse is a disease, why are we arresting people for it?

@TheTruthSlave Oh, the snuff is not a drug, is a plant, and coke is not a drug, is a plant, and the poppy...
Do you realize that they are not mutually exclusive terms right?

@Zhekarius exactly! Understand that marijuana actually cures cancer and other diseases/illnesses and understand that we need it in our society more than ever!
