Mr. Robertson's remarks echoed statements he made last week on "The 700 Club," the signature program of his Christian Broadcasting Network, and other comments he made in 2010. While those earlier remarks were largely dismissed by his followers, Mr. Robertson has now apparently fully embraced the idea of legalizing marijuana, arguing that it is a way to bring down soaring rates of incarceration and reduce the social and financial costs.
"I believe in working with the hearts of people, and not locking them up," he said.

If we legalize marijuana, isn’t that like saying that the hippies were right and we were wrong? I can’t live with that.

What's screwed up about the whole debate is that all the arguments are in the wrong order.
The first thing we need to get straight is where the legitimate authority lies to decide if it will be legal or not.
THEN we can talk about whether or not it should be legal.
