I agree with him a little. I dont use drugs, not even pot so I am not exactly a "valued" opinion in this matter. I do feel that weed being illegal does empower small time drug dealers.

There is no debate. Weed should be legal.  Anyone debating against it being legal would lose.

My question is : would it be easier or harder for the govt to regulate?

Easier. Tax paying good natured hard working citizens get tired of going to the seedy part of town to pick up some herb or the dirty prostitute corner where the dealer hangs and there is the possibility of getting arrested or robbed. If it were regulated and taxed "coffeeshops" would explode all over the nation where people can go into a comfortable market type atmosphere where they WILL pay less than they are with it legal and get a good product. If they get shafted they'll actually have someone to complain to. (BBB or US Gov) Where now if you get robbed of your weed, who you gonna call? Nobody. the shady dealer just got your cash, your herb and your stuck. So in short, yes. It would be easier to regulate.

A correct inventory of the market would be impossible considering everyone and thier brother will be growing it if it were legal. Soooooooooo, to grow you would need a growing liscence ala tobacco farming. To sell, you will need a business liscence ala everything else.

As far as "easier" to regulate, it has to be regulated first in order to be easier. Right now there is no regulation. Just non-violent offenders getting locked up and overcrowding prisons and coming out worse than what they went in.

Regulating and taxing would drive the black market out with lower prices and a stable market.

for real regulation is far better than criminalization, prohibition is testament to this. The video i haven't been able to find it anywhere for "free", but I'm sure the guy has a website of some sort promoting it.

Weed should indeed be legal....  Of course, there are two large competitive markets that want to keep it illegal -- alcohol and cigarettes.  Don't you love it when lobbies decide what you can do in your personal life?

The powers that be my friend. As long as they don't try to step over my threshold. I feel for the officer that kicks in my door.

Yes, because it's not like it's been proven to cause mental disorders or anything....................

They've tried to link it to schizophrenia. That arguments going the same way as the "kills braincells argument". Stay tuned Bubbalo.

When I smoke MJ, am I affecting you in anyway? Nope? Exactly. Thanks for trying to protect me though.

I <3 you too

After seeing what smoking has done to my grandparents, I'm not touching any of that shit, I don't care how 'good for you' it is, your smoking smoke... I think life's short enough but I'm not judging anyone... GL and HF..

No, it has been linked to schizophrenia, and adolescents are particularly vulnerable.

By that logic there are a huge number of things which should be legalised: all drugs, gay marriage, incest.

i used to be really into thinking that it would be legalized some day......not in our lifetime though. ive done the numbers and the government would prosper immensly, it just wont happen. NORML isnt going to do shit...maybe if they had people that didnt sit around and have rallys where people smoke and say stuff like "dude, why ISNT this legal" people would take the issue seriously.
besides the US is making WWAAAAYYYYYYY too much money from arresting small time marijauna buyers.

Dude your so right! lol nah , seriously your F'ing right. Marijuana busts are a major, major money maker
for the police forces states wide. It is quite unfortunate living in the "land of the free" and not be able to smoke a big fat joint like out forefathers did in the ol' west back in the day. LoL , go to Holland , Amsterdam. THAT is the land of the free my friend. The USA is a fucking jail cell. A dirty one at that. Trash everywhere. In Holland, in a 2 weeks stay, seriously- the only lasting memory was how clean everything was. Not one F'ing smoke butt on the ground, not one speck of paper for miles. I swear I pocketed every single smoke I had if I couldn't find a place to throw it in lol . Shit man go soon. Round trip from Philadelphia to Holland only $411 !!!! Round "trip" hahahahhaah .

Try replacing "you" with "anyone"
What`s the difference between gay marriage and incest? Why should only one of them be outlawed?

The issue with this former cop isn't whether or not pot should be legal, it's the fact that he's teaching people to violate the law, something he's sworn to uphold.
