Marijuana was virtually legal in CA in the 80s when my kids were in school there - you drove past the high school at lunch break and got a contact high

Kids have been reporting for years that they can get illegal-for-adults pot more easily than legal-for-adults cigarettes or beer. Sellers of black market goods have no incentive to check IDs - another argument for legalization and regulation.

That’s not an argument for legalization. Marijuana is much more portable than alcohol, and the kids will just have somebody else buy it for them.

Definitely true. You can buy the illegal drugs IN SCHOOL, from someone who wants to sell them to you. For cigarettes or alcohol, you would have to go out to a store and try to fool someone who doesn’t want to sell them to you.
