Marijuana Debate - Lawrenceville, GA

It's time to get the criminal element out of the Marijuana business. The War on (some) Drugs is lost.

Poole don't get violent

why the hell not - criminalize something truly hurtful like talking on your cell phone while driving and leave everyone else alone!

the illegal substance can kill people(slowly).it make you mentally slow and kills hundreds of your brain cells

time to get rid of the criminal element.d

When a law is not enforceable,and you can't control the product it's assanine to spend money to control. Its like trying to push dong up stream. The dumbest of all is money that can be generated by revenue. Not to mention no Sunday liqour.

weed=medicane.

its the perfect plant. it can give us many things, such as fuel, medicine, plastics, and many other things

As an avid potsmoker, it frustrates me that I have to pretend to like being straight at all times. And often go for months at a time or even years at a time smokeless just to insure my meager wages. It sucks!

This is a drug like any other narcotic that should not be legalized. Where are the boundaries? What's next! People wake up!

The boundaries are personal, miss.
If prohibition is not stopping users and it's giving money to criminals, what is it good for?
Denise, please wake up.

It leads to taking other drugs and after a while of using it does affect the brain, I believe. It messes your co-ordination up. It causes you to be too laid back to drive and lots of other things.

You've been taught to believe this is always the case.

Only because chemists can come up with new formulations that mimic the specific desired effects of weed, and the intelligent subset of the hippie culture can ascertain the efficacy but the lowlife degenerates won't be able to. this way we can restrict the benefits of weed to undesireable screwballs and the scientist's, movies stars, and the well connected can partake.

Are you speaking from experience or just repeating something you heard?

Perhaps you could point us to a study showing the link between MJ and 'other drugs?'

The war on pot has failed everywhere. Clean it up, tax it, open factories that employ people that grow it. That would fix quite a bit in America.

I am 56 years old now, and have smoked it since I was 16 years old. I would much rather see everybody smoking a little erb, than drinking hard liquor... and or boo coo beer.

Its a plant that grows naturally, with no over doses ever recorded. Keeping it illegal you might as well ban anything every farmer in America Grows...

Cigarettes are worse.
