They can legalize it, but what they can’t control is the fact it can be grown in your back yard, no way for them to tax it like they do cigs or booze. No one is talking about the dangers of it, being higher than cigs in causing lung cancer.

The pot heads know they can get scripts for it easily. And I don’t want to be on the road with a person high on pot any more than I want to be with one drunk on booze. Both are dangerous!

Exactly. That's why we can't waiver from the concept of punishing bad behavior instead of blaming bad behavior on things like booze, drugs, guns.

Have a sibling who has been a Calif. traffic cop for over 22 years. DUI arrests for alcohol dwarf all other causes. Nothing comes close. Did I mention he works in CA were weed is as prevalent as surfers or college students.

Under Colorado state law it is now legal to grow pot for your own use (tax free even).
