Bonneville America Forums Forums Off Topic Discussion Forums Lounge Marijuana Legalization Question

I wasn't speaking out of ignorance at all plus I don't use any drugs or alcohol or even cigarettes. It is narrow minded to think pot is any worse than alcohol , I for one think the reverse is true if you really want to come down to it. I also am not speaking of costing the tax payer money but rather adding money to the stream by making it legal and taxing it not to mention all the cases that won't cost money to prosecute or inmates tax payers won't have to support or law enforcement that won't need to be paid to arrest them or criminals that won't be created out of otherwise law abiding citizens.I for one also know quite a few people who smoke pot who are good family people and work very hard for a living so who is anyone to tell them that they can't enjoy a little pot rather than a couple beers at the end of the day? It is no different than proabition except the legal people can't seem to figure out they can't stop pot use any more than alcohol use. Proabition didn't work and neither will any laws prohibiting the use or sale of pot. So I say legalize it tax it and make it a revenue maker rather than a burdon on the tax payer.
