Legalize pot?

In the end, I see no rationale to have alcohol and cigarettes legal, but keep pot illegal.

It will be a long time before the feds will make it legal. The sun may die before it happens.

I strongly doubt that

Disagree or disapprove? I suppose you can spend your time as you wish. I know people who love oxycodontin and cocaine and seem to be able to function. I don't know many but some like heroin. and I know people whose lives are negatively impacted by cigarettes and alcohol.That is the convo here right? Should pot be legal? Or do you just feel like putting me down because you disagree with what I do in my personal time?

I used the word synonymously with disaprove. The sun will most likely still be shining when pot is legalized and like woody said.. how can you keep cigs and alcohol legal but prohibit pot?

If you judge by money spent versus results the War on Drugs is a failure.
If you judge by loss of personal liberty then the War On Drugs is a failure.
The people that are winners in the war on drugs are the cartels and the people that make money off the prison system, and government agencies at all levels that skim through asset forfeiture.

Well that's not the point but it is the reality. Of course it's not a great analogy since cigarettes are almost illegal now. apparently it's alright to deprive people of their livelihood if they smoke cigarettes in their homes on their own time.
