^ If they can't control it being illegal, how are they supposed to control it being legal?

I repeat because some people can't read. LAY OFF THE WEED!

the same way they control Alcohol... it used to be illegal in the US, during the days of Prohibition. u should read the Amendments

No way!! weed should never be made legal!! the prices would be high as hell, u'd probably get less for ur money, they'd put all sorts of chemicals n shit in it to preserve it etc n the govt would jus make a killing off it! fuck them! its 4 us to enjoy as we like it! but in sayin that, they aint as hard on weed over here as they are in america, i definitely think that the american govt. should take a more leniant approach to weed tho cuz there are harsher drugs out there n worse ppl than dope smokers!

check this..............


If they Legalized weed and Taxed it.......... and the Taxes went soely to Social Security System........... the taxes alone would save Social Security for the next 5 generations........ Legalize it!!!!!!!!!

drinking is a proven worse thing to do than weed...they could just legalise it in social areas to begin wit i guess see how it goes there and take it from there...oh what it'd be like to be Dutch -_-

The prices are mad now it's only coz it' illegal people will pay £10-£20 for an eighth na it'll be cheaper but the contents will prolly be weaker than whats on the streets...

lol imagine it alcohol free beer (exists)...what about cannabis free weed lol -_-

Lmao. The Amendments don't relate to Prohibition at all.

I've read the Amendments, I know about the Prohibition.

Lol @ mentioning the Amendments..

i dunno, i cant really decide whether it would be good or bad...
here's how i break it down:

good (for legalization):
- increases tax money, government needs it
- reduces number of drug dealers- less business for them
- less underrage smokers- kids who want to smoke are more likely to just wait until they can legally, and less people will become addicted early
- its not very hard to get now, so why not control it
- by going into the business, the government might have an easier time tracking illegal drug sales

bad (against legalization)
- more people experiment, more people get addicted
- might eventually lead to legalization of all drugs, or a more relaxed attitude towards them
- people might still buy illegal weed of the legal price is too high
- secondhand smoke could reach dangerous levels if people could walk around in public smoking weed

but the second hand smoke would be what all the grumpy bastards in the world need anyway...........


respect

and u know this because u smoke it everyday and still aren't addicted?
