      Prohibition of things never works. It only creates an unregulated black market, and a new type of criminal to incarcerate.

        less people would consume the prohibited substance because it’s not something that is required to live, and it would never have been something that appeared in culture if it weren’t permitted by people as it is now, the only reason that alcohol didnt work in the prohibition is because it was most people’s lifestyle to drink on occasions

          Really? Because I’ve never lived in a place where cannabis is legal, and I’ve been consuming it near daily for about 19 years now.

      Wait, you’re not trolling? You actually believe this? Are you a kid, or did the DARE propaganda actually work on you?

          Okay, so it wasn’t DARE then, it was whatever brand of DARE your country has. You have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. If you aren’t a troll, then you really need to sit down and think about why you have the opinion of a 12 year old.

            it takes no genius to simply search for answers and know that weed is linked to poor development if consumed during adolescence, and it also takes no genius to see how retarded frequent smokers of it get when they cant get any

              Nobody is advocating for giving weed to children in this thread…

              And you’re argument about frequent smokers being ‘retarded’ isn’t even true. I know plenty of people who smoke. You’re just making stuff up.

                and i’ve seen many more people who act retarded over it than who smoke it and manage to remain normal-appearing, i’d reckon you’re making stuff up

                    you’re too blunted down to know that normal is normal in behaviour

                  I didn’t say people act totally normal after they smoke weird. You said, and I quote ‘and it also takes no genius to see how retarded frequent smokers of it get when they cant get any’. That is a generalization that is not true.

                  I know people who lived in states where it wasn’t legal, and would drive 2.5 hours to get it. But, I also know people who had professional jobs and managed large teams who smoke regularly and are very responsible. Your argument makes no sense.

                  It’s almost like everybody is different and you are extrapolating information you think applies to everyone when it doesn’t.

                    people who drink the occasional beer don’t go all postal when they cant get any immediately
