    Alcohol is legal, but it's not free.

    Here is my deal with legalizing all drugs. Just because they are legal, doesn't mean that the negative social stigma will automatically be lifted from them. I think that social pressures are much stronger at discouraging people from things than laws and legislation are. Not to mention that legalized use, doesn't mean they are completely unregulated.

    The more I think about it, I think we could get some good results if we did something along the lines of being able to import and federally regulate certain drugs like cocaine, acid, mushrooms, etc. This way we can require a certain level of quality, while having the local violence associated with such businesses, be located outside of our boarders. Then set up something that basically says you can't manufacture any kind of a list of drugs state side (meth, and other cheap shit made out of cleaning products). This will allow the DEA to still run around like GI Joes and bust up home operations like they do now. Possession would have next to no punishments though (like weed now).

    Drugs should be legal, guns should be legal and labels should be removed from chainsaws. Let the dumbasses work themselves out. They are only good for voting democrats anyway.

    There is more money in having drugs illegal than ever having them legal so a source of revenue isn't a good argument for the legalization of any drugs. Also having drugs illegal makes the family/church voters happy for the most part.

    And drugs aren't mentioned anywhere in the Bill of Rights or the Constitution to my understanding. So it isn't inalienable right such as firearms are or should be. So, no they should remain as they are....ILLEGAL. Now on the other hand I do feel weed should be decriminalized a bit. I just feel laws are too harsh for such a substance.

    I got banned from coptalk over at glocktalk for proving, with results of scientific studies, that alcohol is more addictive and more harmful than cannabis.

    I never said that drugs are inalienable. I was suggesting that since firearm rights will be affected by this bill, that canvasing the dispensaries is the right thing to do.

    You can't be against big government, and want drugs to stay illegal at the same time without being a hypocrite.

    Lastly, illegal drugs only make more money for a select few individuals. Legalized drugs would bring much, much more money into a community than illegal ones would. I can't think of a better economic stimulus than the legalization of drugs.
