We actually had a fairly lengthy discussion about this issue in US History today. It pretty much went the same way it's gone down here.

If you don't mind me asking, what are you taking that *is* considered a narcotic?

Opiates (Codeine) drugs like perks and T3s and straight up codeine

Oh yeah, codeine.

I think it's funny how California is in a tremendous defecit, and even after a study showed legalization of marijuana would raise over $1 billion for the state, they still flat out refuse it. Woo, go Governator Arnold.

Legalization of child porn would probably raise a lot of cashola too. Your point?

Yes, because exploiting children is exactly the same as adults purchasing marijuana.

Legalizing drugs would be exploiting adults with poor judgement, not to mention kids who would then have considerably easier access to the stuff.

In all fairness, the people with poor judgment are already finding ways to get it.

Poor judgement is better than not having a say period.

Incorrect! That's why children need parenting and America needs police and US Customs.

Besides, druggies already have their "say" at courthouse protest rallies and Grateful Dead concerts.

So you're really going to compare adults who want to have fun at the expense of their own health, to children unknowingly being raped by adults?

I believe that was sarcasm. However, that's rather a rather harsh word for "guidance." If you think education is brainwashing, you've got to be pretty gullible.

Fixed.

What expense at safety of others are you talking about. Do you actually know anyone who smokes pot? First of all, people typically don't smoke weed then get up and go out into public. They do it at home with their friends so they can all play the Laughing Game or just generally enhance life to make it more fun. Sound familiar? It's called getting a buzz. You do the same exact thing when you have a beer or two. And if you think potheads are violent or hallucinate and try to stab you because you're invading their castle (true story), try again. Marijuana doesn't cause hallucinations to that extent. If you want awesome stuff like that, you gotta go do acid.

Second of all, alcohol is far more impairing when you drive under the influence. Should we make drinking illegal again? No. That's why driving while drunk is illegal.

Your entire argument of bawwing about people who smoke weed being dangerous doesn't hold water.
