Prohibition doesn't work. All it does is drive the products to the black market. Then you have gang wars everywhere. Remember Al Capone? That's what he was about. They did illegalize alcohol so all the gangs went out of their way to provide it leaving a trail of bodies in their wake.
Keeping marijuana illegal is making a harmless drug harmful. Instead of having safe dispensaries for the drug, we have druglords manufacturing the stuff. You know they often lace marijuana with something more addictive so someone thinking they're taking a harmless joint is actually smoking crack.
This is prohibition. Money goes to the drug lords, the government spends BILLIONS jailing people whose only crime is smoking a harmless substance.
