    should growing be illegal, and make it a thing where you need a licence. it is the same with Alcoholic beverages so it is not totly not fair. please give your reasons why or why not.it would also make it so it could be taxed so the gov will be happyer about legalisation.

    I thikn growing should be legal. I mean the worst part of controled substances is the amount of violence the control creates.

    But they need the violence.....The violence makes fear.....the fear makes the average person willing to give lots of money and power to people who frame themselves as the people working against the violence when they created the violence in the first place.

    Man, are people really that stupid. Never compare alcohol with marijuana. I mean never. Alcohol kills people all the time, they die from doing retarded things or getting alcohol poisoning.

    Now, marijuana has never had one death from smoking it. It's an herb, and it helps people relax.

    I vote hell no, growing and smoking weed should be legal everywhere. And alcohol should be illegal. And if the government is crying about it taxes all they have to do is make it legal. And then everyone would be happy. Because the government would get their taxes, and we would get out bud at lower than normal prices.

    in my opinion, all drugs should be legal. all naturally occurring drugs should be legal for anyone to grow. all chemically derived drugs should be legal to create with a license(for safety and quality control proposes)

    thank you for not bashing me (like someone).but i must note something. you say a license for all chemically derived drugs for safety and quality control proposes. but if we do the same with weed we can stop people from putting stuff in it making it less SAFE. everyone here dose it (why i am waiting for college) and thank you for not bashing me once again.i am neutral on this and that is why i want your thoughts

    If it was every legalized that's exactly what the government would do. So they could have some control over it. Although, i don't think it should be that way.

    And well, if dealers had to do that, then say goodbye to your hookups.

    i dont think they will ever (or if they do it wont be for a very long time) legalize recreational pot, so growing will be illegal however they will loosen the laws on medical pot and lower pot jail sentences and legalize small amounts like a g- 2gs but nothing like in amsterdam where you can smoke on the streets and shit. but i should be legalized, i mean it doesnt have and physical addiction like cigs do, just dont allow smoking and driving, high in public, underage(18) or selling to underage. go NORML

    I don't think it will ever be legal, there is just too much money beening made it fighting the war on drugs on both sides, suppling the pot that takes pennies to grow, you can supple all the pot you need in the US by growing a 100 acres and the jails and police that make 100's milllions keeping in off the streets, money makes the US go around sad but true.

    they have that in states that allow Medical Marijuana. Its not like anybody but stoners with a spare 120 bucks ever gets a prescription. I mean, you o to a dispensery, and they tell you whih DR. to go to. That Dr. gives you a sheet where you tell him your problem ( insomnia seems to be the prevailing "ailment used". No examination, money changes hands, and a years long prescription is granted. I am not anti pot or anti medical marijuana, but this abuse by stoners is gonna get those leniency laws repealed, and its gonna be the cancer and aids patients that suffer the worst of it.
    *steps off soap box*
    sorry 'bout that rant.

    You know, you can grow tobacco without a license. They cant say "this is legal, but you cant grow it", that would REALLY piss some people like me off.

    That isn't the point, and uss, dont tell me what I should know, that shit REALY pisses me off. Anyway, they cant say "smoke but dont grow" no mater what it is because that would be a big bright red light showing its favor to the smoking companies, pissing off non smokers and those who were gonna grow it. Plus, tobacco is just as bad for you as pot, pot can slow tumor growths, and it clears out of your lungs faster.
