Yes, that Pat Robertson. I couldn’t agree more, the amount of money and time that is wasted prosecuting marijuana users is absurd. The government should be focusing on drugs that actually ruin people lives like opiates and cocaine. Coming from someone who in a previous life smoked a shitload of grass, I can testify that it’s pretty harmless and putting people in prison for it is overkill at its finest…
“I’m not exactly for the use of drugs, don’t get me wrong, but I just believe that criminalizing marijuana, criminalizing the possession of a few ounces of pot, that kinda thing it’s just, it’s costing us a fortune and it’s ruining young people. Young people go into prisons, they go in as youths and come out as hardened criminals. That’s not a good thing.”
On the flip side, if it was to be legalized I would want it tightly regulated so we don’t have weed shops on every corner as you see in parts of California.
