Why don't we legalize theft? Can you imagine how many billions of dollars are spent arresting, trying, and defending thieves? Drug users are LAWBREAKERS (at this point). They are not law abiding citizens. They abide by only the laws they agree with. For you to call them LAW ABIDING is ridiculous. Then you made another ridiculous statement. "and pot has killed no one in the history of ever." Really? Another unprovable statement. Some researchers say cannabis has the same if not more chance at causing cancer as tobacco. So if someone smokes both and dies from lung cancer, was it from pot or cigarettes? I'll bet you say its from cigarettes. Can't prove which one caused it. Both sides of this subject at least agree that as time goes on and more and more people use pot, you'll start to see pot related cancer cases. Your putting carcinogens into your system, that can't be good for you. They're putting more and more regulations on cigarettes and smokers then they ever have before. And I'm all for it, but to now allow another form of drug use to become legal is also ridiculous.
