    The question was

    “Why would we ban item A that is 100x less dangerous than item B that is legal?

    Then arrest people that use it and make them unable to find work again, does that make sense to you?”


    Getting “high” is a necessity for come cancer patients, people with MS, severe seizers.

    Source?
    Oh never mind, I forget you cannot source anything because everything is a conspiracy against you.
    Guess I’ll just take your word for it.

    You still get the same answer no matter how many times you ask

    We have enough health problems without adding more by legalizing pot

    So we should keep items that are more dangerous legal and arrest people for doing a substance that harms no one giving them a record making them less likely to support themselves...

    Insanity

    Legalization is coming as soon as the “lucky few” die off and stop voting, perhaps even before.

    I dont think many if any users are being arrested and certainly not sent to prision

    Although some users are dealers also who do deserve being locked up

    I wont demand a link

    But if you dig deeper I dont think many of those arrested actually served time in prison

    You think the "do anything if it feels good" leftist crowd will STOP at MaryJ!? No, they will keep on going until ALL drugs are legal.

    Yes, just like right-wingers are AGAINST the freedom to have an abortion - they want the gubmint to intrude on a women's right to choose.

    Many people arrested for Pot offenses were jailed.

    That said -what does this have to do with the fact that you are self admitted believer in collectivism - to the point where you would make a member of the Borg blush - and someone who hates essential liberty and Republicanism ?

    Cat got your tongue ?

    Actually, it would seem that the LEFTISTS are the ones that usually "desire control" as they are constantly trying to control our daily lives more and more and more with their constant desire to increase government regulation/taxation/control over our lives.

    All drugs should be legal!
    There is no time in History that I know of where a Drug Prohibition worked.
    Look at the History of Tobacco in Europe 1550-1700. Commonly prohibited, and could
    get one the death penalty in Ottoman Empire and Russia.


    No Drug Prohibitions!
    Different means of access that must undersell street prices.


    Operating machinery under the influence?
    Create a "Black Box" electronic game whereby a suspect's fitness to
    operate a machine, automobile, can be tested.
    Apply the same law for insulin reaction impairment, drug impairment.
    No excuse to endangering another by operating machinery in an impaired state.

    But smoking pot does indeed seem to cause people to vote Democrat, so there's that.

    All recreational drug use should be legal with appropriate laws governing distribution and consumption, like alcohol.

    It puts criminals out of business, it stops users resorting to crime and reduces crime and enforcement costs by massive amounts while generating billions in tax revenue, some of which can be diverted to drug education (prevention and/or responsible use )and addiction disease treatment (abuse cure).

    I wouldn’t give you one anyway as you would just decy it as liberal bias. If you were interested in the topic beyond a clinched fist you would inform yourself on the topic.

    You have no source for this and are basing it on nothing best satisfying your agenda.

    It’s sad so many people have had their lives destroyed because of people like you.
    Especially when your agenda and lack of a desire for information is so blatant
