I am not pro-pot, I am anti drug war. Tired of militarized police and SWAT raids gone wrong coupled with gang crime related to control of the black market.

I do recognize that freedom comes with a price, but I still prefer the slightly higher risk of danger from intoxicated drivers to the loss of freedom to government and their jackboot enforcers.

Government and police need to re-orient themselves towards peace keeping and property crimes (and border control).

I don’t even care if we end up with more addicts on welfare and medicaid. Let them overwhelm the system. Maybe voters will get tired of supporting junkies and vote to end the welfare state.

Agreed. Freedom comes first. I don’t like alcohol but it’s legal. People will always use intoxicating substances.

You can obviously outlaw murder and rape as well. Human nature exists.
