re: #301 ggt

What caused me to change my stance on legalizing Pot is the War on Drugs. It seems to have created more crime than it has prevented. We are wasting money on it —legalize it, take the profit from the criminals, regulate it, tax it. And most of all, stop mucking up our Justice System over a few stems and seeds.

The more I learn about cartel-scale pot growing in the Americas and SE Asia, the more I feel it needs to be legalized. Having just watched “Prohibition” that feeling is redoubled: the demand has diminished, the penalty hasn’t determined consumption, and there’s just too much to gain being a provider.
