What about the gang activity by giving criminals a highly profitable industry where in the crossfire they not only kill themselves but innocent bystanders that cost us billions to police every year? What about medical marijuana for people who swear by it and live constant agony without it? Are the above anough for you to consider supporting legalization? |
Supporting? No, not really. I don't care one way or the other. I got away from marijuana, and I'm glad I did, but I don't care if someone else does it. Why are you preaching to me?
As for your questions, going to jail for dozens of years? What are you talking about? Most cops don't even want to bother with simple possession charges. I've seen with my own eyes police take small amounts of marijuana away and do nothing but give people a warning (and a very hard time) for it. If you're going to jail for a long time then you got busted with enough to be considered a dealer, and probably not even then.
Legal or not, doesn't matter to me. I'm done with drug culture, I'm done with party culture. I will say, however, that people who think the world will suddenly be rainbows and kittens if drugs are made legal are fooling themselves. Some problems might go away but others will take their place. I mean, it's not like gangs in povery stricken areas will suddenly say, "oh, hey, let's all be friends."
