Thread Name: BS: Legalize Pot?
Subject: RE: BS: Legalize Pot?
Well gol danged, ya' all...

Seems like this issue is being argued out by a bunch of non-stoners... Hey, that ain't fair...

All right. lets look as some realities here:

1. First and formost, there is no victim other than the stoner (and that's is a matter of dispute).

2. By keeping it illegal we are pushing kids toward crime and ciminals.

3. The chances of kids using harder drugs is increased by making folks buy pot from criminals.

4. The usual. Tax bucks lost.

5. All the rest of the logical argumements for legalization..

Now I don't make no bones about being a stoner. Yeah, some folks will say "Hey, Bobert's brain is so fried that he can't type 'er spell 'er nuthin'..." but that ain't he case at all... Catchin' a little buzz (organic, LH, gol dangit...) ain't the friggin' end of the world here. Most folks calm down from it. Most folks become more, ahhh, peaceful from it... Most folks become more creative from it...M ost folks don't become criminals or junkies, 'er___________ (fill in yer own scarey end to "Reefer Madness").

Yeah, it would be nice if everyone lived as cleanly as LH, but, hey, they don't. When I think of my 19 year old son out in Oregon I find a level of comfort knowing that he will take a couple tokes tonight rather than drinking alcohol...
