California Proposition 19: the Marijuana Legalization Ini...
Legalize all drugs and tax them proportionally to their statistically genuine damage. This and only this will provide the relevant information on their dangers, and allow a real competition between medications. You can be sure that after a while alcohol and smoked tobacco will be expensive, and the life insurance will give bonus to the pot consumer, as the effect brings health benefices in the average. It is also the only way to regulate the drugs, which is the only way to really protect the kids. It will also stop the creation of the new hazardous drugs copying original one. It is a not a coincidence that pot is over-used in the countries which repress it the most. Drugs can be dangerous, but that danger is multiplied in the extreme by the prohibition laws. We have to separate health from the government and states, like we have to separate religion from state. (Aug 7, 2012 | post #11391)

The comments are far better than the post. They gave no references, and repeat the same myth, and repeat the same logical error. The cannibal got THC in the blood: that just prove nothing at all. Some murderer were sober, would you make sobriety illegal? But, even if they were true (which is not the case), that would still not make marijuana 1/10 as dangerous as alcohol. Also, if marijuana was legal, much less people would consume it. Prohibition of pot is so wrong at so many levels. (Jul 31, 2012 | post #11343)

Because, once pot is legal, it will be regulated and less, much less, people will smoke in your neighborhood. Being illegal, the kids will remain the targets of the criminals, and will buy pot at every corners of your street. So, if you want less passive cannabis, vote to make it legal. All studies show that pot and drug consumption is directly proportional to its repression. Prohibition is what make drug consumption non controllable. (Jul 16, 2012 | post #11186)

I have no clue why you say that I, or who?, can't ascertain what is legal or not. We are all supposed to know the laws, of course it can vary from country to country. I insist: when we make a drug illegal, we create an incentive to criminals to sell it to the kids. This is an obvious well known principle, and it is confirmed by the fact that cannabis consumption exploded in the countries where it is the most repressed, like USA and France. On the contrary, in The Netherlands, where it is the less repressed, the dutch kids are the one consuming it the less. Prohibition looks like fighting against the drugs spreading, but in reality, prohibition is the ally of the drug dealers, who are the one corrupting the politics to ensue its continuation. Why do you think that in South America those trying to legalize drugs get threats of the drugs dealers, and often get killed? Prohibition of drugs is a (criminal) hoax. It is ONLY a technic to sell drugs without any price nor quality controls to people of any age. There is no drug problem. The perceived drug problem is only due to prohibition. There is only a prohibition problem, and a deeper human "let us other thinking at my place" problem. When all drugs will be legal again, the drug nightmare will end. As long as drugs are made illegal, new drugs will keep appearing, and old drugs will continue to be sold to the kids in all streets in all cities. (Jul 12, 2012 | post #11151)
California Proposition 19: the Marijuana Legalization Ini...
We should legalize drugs because it is a private matter. If you let other control your appetite, they will control your mind too. Legalize cannabis as it is a good healthy medication, and a safer recreative products than most current one. Legalize the real dangerous drugs so that we can protect the kids from them. Today, it is simple: we can't. (Jul 10, 2012 | post #11141)

Yes. We have to legalize cannabis if only to stop 75 years of total mockery of health and humanity. No drug has ever been close to the ethical, social, economical, medical ... dangers of prohibition. Prohibition is ONLY a technic to steal your money, with the side effect of demolishing your health, and the health of the kids. "Prohibition. .. goes beyond the bound of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded" -Abraham Lincoln, U.S. President (Jun 30, 2012 | post #11089)
California Proposition 19: the Marijuana Legalization Ini...
I go very often in Amsterdam, I see only a problem with alcohol. Tobacco, when smoked, and alcohol are the most unhealthy and the most addictive drug existing. Marijuana is simply not addictive, but it can be habituating--- but less than TV, note. There are many addictive products sold in pharmacy. Drugs don't exist. They are just medication made artificially expensive by their illegality. It is just a question of (black) money. Once heroin and marijuana are made legal, they lost their appeal for the youth, who likes to defy laws and authority (it is natural), especially when it is made simple and not dangerous, like with marijuana. The truth is that marijuana is just good for your health, and I have seen this since I observe people using all kind of (legal) drugs. It is just time to cease that mockery of health and reason.

You are right. In fact the difference between natural and artificial is ... artificial. Many plants can kill us, but note that they are all legal. Only plant which price is multiplied when illegal, are illegal. And humans, actually most mammals are used to nature plant, since they exist. It is just a nonsense to make any plant illegal. It is a nonsense to make something illegal because it is dangerous. Life is full of dangerous things, in fact life is dangerous. The real danger of drugs, for the majority, comes only from its illegality, which creates the incentive to target the youth and kids. Nowhere in the world can we control drugs in prison, so it is a lie to pretend that drugs can be controlled our of prison. Making a drug illegal is ONLY a technic to sell it without quality control, without taxes and with abnormal prices to the kids on the streets and near their school. It is gangster technic. The ONLY way to protect the kids from drugs consists in making them completely legal, so that we can regulate them properly. Those who pretend the contrary are, willingly or not, the accomplices of the gangsters and mafia. (Jun 26, 2012 | post #11069)

Marijuana should be legalized because we know today that the scientific evidences for making it illegal were 100% fake. There are many books and youtube video which explains well how and why marijuana has been demonized for reason of special interests. The illegality of marijuana is a lasting scandal, and it perverts the whole working of politics. Not just health politics, also economy, justice, etc. And not just in America.

Could an American convert him/herself into an American Indian Religion? Could an European? Anyway congrats for your religion. I hope you include Salvia divinorum, my lovely favorite plant. The African Tabernanthe iboga seems also to have some words to say. (Jun 23, 2012 | post #11054)

I don't think so(*). Liars are problems. And their victims too if they can't awake. That exists in all nationality, I'm afraid. It is universal. (*) an "asian" movie on youtube might help you, perhaps: http://www.youtube .com/watch?v=fWpoM sumViU (Jun 22, 2012 | post #11051)

Wow, right! I am on coffee. Telling me that someone, belonging to some group, said X, is not an argument. Especially that I agree that there is a big problem with drug. We only disagree on the solution. I think that prohibition can only aggravate the drug problem. I begin to think that it create the drug problem. I suggest legalization, and regulation, and even taxation proportional to their genuinely statistically measurable problems. In that case, I think that smoked tobacco and alcohol will be expensive, and that the life-insurance will pay you to snus tobacco, to smoke cannabis and salvia, and to consume from time to time many other plants. Prohibition is only a tool to hook you with expensive inefficacious synthetic drug, instead of allowing the use of natural plants we use since millennia. Prohibition results in an unfair and unhealthy competition with nature and people's ancestral knowledge. It is insane at the start. (Jun 22, 2012 | post #11050)
BARACK OBAMA BIRTH CERTIFICATE: Suit contesting Obama's c...
Obama signed the NDAA bill which contains the worst mockery of the human rights and of the constitution. The bill has been judged anti-constitutiona l by the supreme court since and Obama's administration still refuse to change the language. Am I correct? And nobody says anything. Except Paul, Johnson and Solomon. 5 years of prohibition of alcohol = Al Capone 75 years of prohibition of marijuana = ? (Jun 18, 2012 | post #85976)

Thanks Ronald, but I am just born in Europa. Also I am not addicted to pot. I have an addiction to tobacco, but it is not a problem with snus. My favorite plant is salvia, and it cures all addiction, habituations and compulsive behaviors, even when we are not interested in curing them, like with my tobacco-snus. The reason why I am for the legalization of marjiuana and all drugs are purely driven by my concern to be able to provide the real information about all substances to the public, and to make health politics consistent, and to help the cure of people really addicted to drugs (legal or illegal). And, well, to solve the corruption problems. In my country the number of heroin users has diminish a lot when they made it (unofficially) legal to prevent the spreading of AIDS. I sincerely believe that drugs are not really a problem, unless they become illegal, because this gives an incentive to criminals to sell hazardous products to the kids. (Jun 15, 2012 | post #11036)
