Also, USA has already banned alcohol and we all know how that turned out. Now you have Mexican drug lords running rampant near the USA border. They have a diverse line up of products such as cocaine, heroin, marijuana, etc.... that are in demand in USA. Keeping things illegal allows them to make huge profits. I am not advocating legalizing the other drugs but what else are we supposed to do? Keep fighting a pointless and never ending drug war? Lets throw countless billions at a war that will never end (that seems the most "rational" idea that our politician can come up with). Sure they have to take the stance "Drugs are bad mmmkay". However, it is time to grow up. You can't prevent people from wanting / doing drugs. If someone wants to do something they will do it (especially when it comes to drugs). Other ideas need to be explored. It is stupid to group Marijuana with almost any drug since it trumps all drugs with being the safest and least damaging to your body. USA citizens need to wake up and demand that at least marijuana be taken of its schedule 1 drug category. To group it with the likes of heroin is just plain stupid. USA is so far in debt that legalization of marijuana would be a God send to the economy. That is okay though lets keep going down the same path we are and then eventually the dollar will be worthless and USA will be forced to have a revolution due to the corruptness that our joke of political system has become.

I don't think you meant to quote me. I'm all for legalizing marijuana.

I was quoting you for the sake of alcohol being legal and once being illegal. I was trying to show similarities between the two being illegal (corruption, cartels/mob involvement, etc..)
