However Alaska had tried legalizing it in the late 70s with terrible statistics. Crime soared, school dropouts grew, and people dependent on the state grew.
thanks

I often wondered why it was illegal. It made no real sense to me as to why it was! It’s one of the many reasons I support Mike Gravel for president. :)

Cheers,

So they will keep earning money by arresting people and making laws.

Legalize it! Obviously it has several uses, it grows well in Northern California and Oregon. What about the jobs that can be produced for growth, security, and processing?

Pot has been turned into too many types of scape goat. They’ll continue to try to pin more BS on maryjane before their done and they won’t stop until the public finally gets informed about the truth.

Keep up the good work.

Take care,
Scott Riedy

i think a reasonable person would come to the conclusion that marijuana shouldn’t be illegal. our laws don’t do that observation justice, and i think its obvious it has to change.
