I am a mother, and let me say, nothing is more important to me than my daughter. When the time comes and she starts to experiment with things I would much rather it be marijuana than anything else!

My mother raised me right, she understood I was going to want to try things and it was always ok, as long as I was in the house and didn't leave. If we keep shoving propaganda down out kids throats when they realize it's wrong and everyones lying to them they're less likely to listen.. lets give them the truth. Marijuana is not a harmful drug when used responsibly.

Legalize marijuana so it can be easier for the adults who are users and or dealers, who are already deciding to break the law, to sell or just pass it on to our kids or in some cases their own? This seems inevitable to me.
Please take a look at the big picture. There will be many more broken laws with legalized marijuana, therefore more arrests, prosecutions and imprisonment at the cost of putting children in the middle. How does that benefit anyone?
Maybe Mr. Linn is not a parent. Maybe he, too, just sees dollar signs.
Then what should be legalized next, cocaine? Maybe you should re-think your ideas of how the state of Illinois could collect more tax money for the budget.

Honestly i can see the children, but #1
it's the parents responsibility (stop using the escape goat).

#2 it always leads to other drugs can you prove that?
It's the persons decision to do the substance and
have nothing to blame but them selves.

#3 How would legalization lead to more arrests?
Sure there will be sum adult that will buy the green
for the kids but nonetheless with all the parents
that complain about marijuana use, kids would have a
harder time obtaining the substance.

#4 All drugs should be legalized!

Legalize!

cocaine is much worse that marijuana and we all know that, thats not logical thinking if your going to say if they legalize weed then there will be other drugs to follow. why would people commit more crimes if they can purchase weed over the counter or just not have to deal with major issues? it is your opinion and thats fine, we will really never know what will happen until it happens.

Marijuana won't be legal until Christianity is leeched out of the American society... sad but true. (and that will never happen)

Yep. Just like with alcohol. I'm 18, and it's way easier to get pot than to get alcohol. Everybody sells it because they have to - you can't just walk into a store and get it. You can walk into a store and get beer though, and that's why nobody makes moonshine in their bathtubs anymore.

The only gateway factor is narcoticly sprayed addictive weed,and fake hash that is usually plastic,rubber,henna and animal tranqs.
Once youve become addicted to these,you then need them because of what they have been sprayed or mixed with,therfore creating a bunch of fools that think they are addicted to weed.

Chances are that 9 out of 10 people that end up this way have been using adulterated weed or hash and not the real deal.

The other factor is that when young adults go to get some weed some unscrupulous dealers offer tasters for free of cocaine or crack,pcp,etc.
So how many kids would be getting offers for free tasters of cocaine if you could buy some weed at walmart?

I have smoked weed for over 20 years,before i became a freelance musician i used to build computers,i am not debilitated by weed mentally in any way other than that i do complain and question things more than your average citizen.

I figure that the people would be much harder to control if they had half a brain,i figure this is the real reason that alcohol the brain destroyer is legal and weed is illegal.
You cant have something that makes the common masses smarter,i mean who would clean up the rich peoples garbage for a megre wage if the poor were smarter?

Haha so true. The rich would just set up a police state though. With cops arresting harmless potheads like criminals, and cameras on every street corner relaying live feeds to a major internet search engine that also collected and stored everyone's DNA. Kind of like if cops used Google.

Give it a couple years.

So i guess what we really need to tell the rich people is that we will collect more of their garbage if they let us smoke weed.
If you let us smoke pot we will happily go about cleaning your homes and removing your garbage

P.S. I assume you realise and were being sarcastic about giving it a few years for the above to be true seeing as its already true

well. california is making a killing on taxes taken from "clinics/clubs/dispensaries"

and from the ones that i know of that are allowed to stay open, they have a system that is tied into the register, and a portion of all profits are automatically transferred to a "tax account" where interest accumulates and then the irs collects every fiscal quarter.

hahahahah.....

sigh. turning drug dealers into tax paying businessmen. brilliant.

I always thought that it would be a natural step. Nearly all of the same skills are needed, the only real difference is legitimacy.
