Coming from the great liberal country of the Netherlands where Mariuana is legal (well, sort of up to 5 grammes is allowed) and can be sold in our famous Coffeeshops I support more countries that want to legalize.
Reasons are:
People that want to smoke can buy it in a controlled environment. This way they don't have to buy it from a dealer. Dealers also deal in all other kinds of stuff, like harddrugs. Legalizing softdrugs is a way to minimize softdrugs to hardrugs transitions. The number of hardrugs users in the Netherlands is lower than in a lot of other countries, including the strict US.
If softdrugs are legal, it's less cool to use them. People can try without the anxiety of doing something illegal.
