Racing is life... anything else is just waiting.
I'm certainly for decriminalizing pot. I don't know about legalizing and attempting to control it. And I'm not sure what that will or won't do with regard to violent crime or turf battles. I don't smoke it, but I'm generally in favor of letting people do what they choose to do with their own bodies. They just have to accept responsibility for their actions, while they're under the influence of whatever it is that they've willingly put in their bodies. Whether its the moral argument or the health argument, I really don't see the difference between pot and alcohol. Is there really a difference? :dunno: From everything I've read, it was primarily that wingnut movie, Reefer Madness, that sent us down the path to idiocy and overreaction.
Weed, you can grow... most anybody can grow it. Coke, heroin and meth... that's a lot more complicated. I don't think there are any easy answers there. But just like the Boobinator character that was asking for advice on taking LSD, once someone realizes there is a risk (whatever the degree), what happens happens, IMO. If it works out, fine. If it doesn't, I guess it sucks to be them. I'm not in favor of being a nanny for risk takers.
The one thing about this that puzzles me is the position of the Mexican (quasi) government. They blame us for the demand side of the drug problem. But then, they also blame us for the supply side of the firearms problem. And yet, it's only very recently that they figured out that if you track and monitor large bank deposits, you might just figure out who is selling massive quantities of drugs. And they only searched cars coming into the U.S., not the ones returning to Mexico?
Who develops law enforcement techniques and policies down there, Barney Fife?
There once was an hombre called Fife
Who carried a pistola and a knife
The pistola was all dusty
And his knife was all rusty
Because he never caught a Zeta in his life

Looks like some top officials are on the take. :2 cents:
Man, guys, it technically is legal right now. I've been let go with small amounts before at least a couple times. One time my buddy and I just smoked a nice joint and I got pulled over. The cop just gave me a warning. :glugglug: There was another time when they made me throw my oney in the sewer. Yeah, I've met some pretty cool cops in my day (or maybe they just didn't want to fill out the paper work )

That sounds about right, have you ever seen the movie Traffic?
that's the whole irony about the war on drugs when you have self-righteous moral hypocritical politicians talking about being tough against crime and drugs not becoz these vices are immoral and detrimental...but becoz they want to get elected into office so they can stand to financially profit at taxpayers expense by criminalizing drugs and drug users
At what point in typing your diatribes do you finally say "yup, that's enough desperation?"
also: smoke weed every day

I agree, legalize marijuana, tax it, pay off the debt, and put all of these pot dealing thugs out of business. It's win, win, win. People are going to smoke it anyway...
