Legalize it with the same restrictions, laws, and regulations as alcohol

legalize....psshhhh...it should have NEVER been illegal to begin with. Why would the gov't legalize a product that would put so MANY political sponsors out of business..(pharmaceuticals, paper companies, renewable fuels etc. etc.) ......Legalize, then what, tax baby cakes...they'd be be taxing that shiii* so much it prolly make our heads spin. They'd prolly obtain all rights to grow it, then spray it with all their bud boosting chemicals, b/c then they'd be making $$ off it, so THEN it will be ok, pshhhh
lol, rant rant rant
but, yes i think it should be legal if we can still obtain the right to grow it ourselves.
could you imagine all the additives if the gov't grew all the cannabis

Who on this site would vote for it to be illegal. Of course it should be legal, there is nothing wrong with it and as another poster said before this one, It should have never been made illegal in the first place. This is a no brainer.

Just because you've never known anyone who has, doesn't mean nobody has. And for the record, a lot of the people on this website are already growing cannabis... illegally. Imagine how much more a lot of the people here would grow if it was legal to grow, and legal to use for any reason?

I actually thought about growing my own tobacco at one point. I probably should have, but I didn't.

I just want to know who are thoes 73 people who said NO. I know every one has ther own views on everything. That is cool so let me experss mine. Thoes 73 people suck and they need to role one up and just chill the hell out.

Cannabis should definatley be legalized, if there going to lower the drinking age (america)

Who is to tell you what you can and can't do?

Answer:Nobody.

If there were no restrictions you would have less youngsters smoking 'cause they wouldn't get as excited about it.

Legalize it, yes! If it were legal then it would make it more acceptable to grow your own. Take big corporations out of the picture. It's really not a hard plant to cultivate.

I'm not as think as you stoned I am!

They couldn't tax it to above black market value, if they did the black market would flourish. More grey money floating around.

Legalize it with the same laws, restrictions, taxes, and regulations as alcohol.
Figure that the tobacco companies already have the fields, packaging, marketing all wrapped up. It might cost them a buck and a quarter to make a pack of joints, and with the same taxes on them as alcohol, figure on $20 per pack.

It will not effect growing for personal use.... consider that you can make your own beer, wine, booze, etc for *PERSONAL USE*, but not for sale. Moon shiners only get busted because they sell the stuff and it doesn't have a tax stamp on it.

Either way, as soon as its legalized, the black market will be out of business. Do a little homework on prohibition.....just as soon as alcohol was legalized again, the speakeasies and mob control of alcohol went out the window...... Remember that Al Capone went to prison for tax evasion, not alcohol distribution or anything else.

Does this vote really count for anything?
I vote for it to be legalized.

Hehe, you are correct on that. Taxing it like crazy would be counter-productive for the companies selling it. People would just end up growing it to evade the tax. It would be taxed, yes, everyone knows this. But like FlyByNite said, they couldn't tax it to or above the black market value... the legitimate market just doesn't work that way.

SOMEBODY PLEASE CREATE THIS POLL (cos i cant):
(THIS IS FOR GUYS MOSTLY)Your sitting in your bedroom and your parents burst in the door with your granny. Would u rather be caught
(a) Masturbating in full view of them and your just about to.....
(b) Having a syringe in your arm
(c) Kissing a guy

ye but u have to understand that some people develop psychosis, schizophrenia, depression etc. and lets be honest when ur baked all u want to do is the stuff u enjoy, so if ur a kid and your going through school your obviously going to learn less cos your too busy enjoyin yourself: skippin school with your buds is obviously more fun than sitting in math class baked off your face daydreaming about random stuff. in otherwards it affects your motivation towards the shitty stuff that u have to do in life . What im tryin to say is for a lot of people in certainn lifestyles its AOK and there's no harm in it but for others, they should just smoke when their lifestyle is less hectic.

Since this is a very Debatable Topic, I'll make it short and sweet.

IMHO. I think if I were given the chance to smoke weed I probably wouldn't have done it. Just like cigarettes and Alcohol. They have always been there to buy and use, except for not being 21...MY question is, how many people In Canada are addicted to Marijuana compared to the people Addicted to Cigarettes, alcohol, and Hard core drugs, i.e. meth, cocaine, heroine,etc...

I think if anything should be illegal it should be alcohol. Its the most abused substance known to man, has the most deadly withdrawals, very addicting, and has more recorded deaths and OD's then any other drug. Marijuana on the other hand has no recorded OD's and zero deaths from withdrawals(lol weed withdrawals..). Anyways I am very high and my point was lost...Rant over.

Well, alcohol was illegal at one point, at least in the US. No substance should be illegal, not alcohol or tobacco, or even meth! If meth was legalized, at least it wouldn't be as tainted with household chemicals. It would most likely be produced in a professional scientific lab, not using a bunch of household cleaning supplies and lame shit like that. Not that meth or any amphetamine is good for you, they're pretty bad. Then again, the pharmaceutical companies have no problem giving kids amphetamines for their ADD (ritalin, adderall).

Okay.....Hell No on " Even Meth should be Legal." Are you kidding? I think nothing above Marijuana should be Legal. What I am trying to say is. There are numerous ways that you can "Class" drugs or "Rate/Scale" Drugs, and what is a Drug?

[Drug],-Noun, Verb, Drugged/Drug-ging
noun
1. Pharmacology. a chemical substance used in the treatment, cure, prevention, or diagnosis of disease or used to otherwise enhance physical or mental well-being.

A Substanced used in Treatment, Cure, Prevention, Or Diagnosis of Disease...
So How does Meth do this? Thats how I look at drugs, or doing drugs.
Marijuana on the other is used, and proven to Haven Cured, Prevented, maybe not diagnosed, but is alot less hardcore as meth and Doesn't kill you and or Turn you into
"Skeletor!"

So ya Maybe Just have like Cigarettes, Alcohol, Marijuana be legal and call it good??

The only information I have ever found as to why marijuana is illegal dates back to the mid-1930s and involves the possible loss of profit from softwood sales by William Hearst, as cannibis was found to produce more paper pulp per acre than his forest lands. I also found comments that a congressional committee lied to Congress about a report submitted by the AMA. Hearst 'demonized' the drug by blaming its presence on Mexicans, whom he hated, and making comments like, "when coloreds smoke Marijuana, it makes them think they are as good as white people." Dupont played a part in this as hemp ropes would outsell their new nylon ropes (as hemp was a superior rope), so they had to get rid of it to increase their sales and profits. Names such as Anslinger and Mellon come to mind. Please do your own research.

As far as age limits, I think the age of adulthood should be 19, as this gets just about everyone out of high school. At this point, they become full adults. I have always thought it strange that I could die for my country at 18, but could not buy a drink.

I do not smoke now, but did in the early 1970s. If it were legal, I doubt I would smoke it, and in countries where it is legal, the average user quits in his mid-30s. This is documented. In spite of this, I think our country spends way to much of the taxpayers money fighting this innocuous drug.

who in there right mind would say no to this *toke*
