So... the people who think pot should be illegal are the people who are
apparently already smoking it? :-.

Well, that does make logical sense.
On the other hand, make it legal and 5,000x more people will be doing it.
In my opinion, tobacco should be illegal. We'd see far fewer people
dying a slow, lingering death from cancer. But it's far more profitable
for the government to allow its sale and tax it to hell. So it will
forever more be legal. Stupid but true...

Sure. And *that* is a whole *other* debate...

Understand that I have taken (not done :-)) drugs and I’ve seen people
get into bad states with them. I’ve seen young and old people of both
sexes lying unconscious in the street covered in their own vomit,
fights, dui, families kept poor and abused, lives ruined. The list is
endless and then we move away from alcohol.
If you tell some people that something is not allowed then that will
make it exciting and glamorous to them. Prohibition did not work in the
USA and the “war on drugs” is IMO a waste of time and resources.

Consider the Netherlands where pot while not legal is controlled and
sold in coffee shops. This has not made the Dutch into a nation of pot
heads. Most Dutch people I’ve met and worked with are quite dismissive
of cannabis, it’s what you try when you are young.

"Two countries separated by a common language". ;-) I've known people
who have taken/used/done (just to cover the bases) drugs, and yeah, some
of them have described "bad trips" to me.

Indeed. I've got a family member who served time in prison for a DUI
offense that involved someone dying. Pot? Gives one the munchies (so
I'm told).

Exactly. But don't get me started on the whole phraseology of "the war
on 'x'", because I think the whole idea is stupid. A war is something
that *should* be winnable, and you can't win against a concept.

Yep. There's no mystery, no sense of "I'm doing something bad/wrong" or
"I'm getting away with something I shouldn't be", and the mystique and/or
novelty wears off as a result.
It's the same reason many kids try cigarettes when they're in High School
(or earlier) here in the US: They're not allowed to. So they rebel and
do it behind the school while nobody's watching. Oooooo, dangerous.
You're SUCH a bad boy.

No, it's people who have no background in medicine or even chemistry at
all (for the most part), who want to assert authority they feel is
derived from their self-serving sense of moral superiority.

Maybe. Probably not. But if they do, the taxes pay for services that
they might need. In the UK, I'm fairly certain that part of the
cigarette taxes that the users pay go to the NHS, for example.

Well, yes, but again, it comes down to personal choice, too. I had a
great-uncle (ie, my mother's uncle) who had emphysema. It was serious
enough that he was on oxygen pretty much 24x7. He used to sneak into the
garage - WITH HIS OXYGEN TANK - to sneak cigarettes.
That was his choice. It was painful to watch (I was very young when he
died and I don't remember him very well, but I know my mother was
heartbroken over it - even though she and my dad were both smokers at the
time), but uncle Mac made his choice, and he lived (and died) with the
consequences.
The thing is - if tobacco had been illegal, he probably would have bought
his cigarettes on the black market. People will find a way.

Such policies have little or nothing to do with science. It's mainly an
economic, sociological and logistic issue.
You don't need the professional opinion of a chemist to decide what drunk
driving fines or sentences should be, or whether to fine them at all, for
instance. You just ask the chemist or doctor to provide you with the means
of measuring the amount of alcohol in blood. That's it.

Doctors can only look at it from a limited perspective, so they don't make
good policymakers. You duly note their professional opinion. The economic
and social implications are a completely different and larger part of the
entire picture. I'm not arguing pro or con, but it's naive to think that
those who are con are anti-doctor, anti-medicine and anti-science.

True, but the people who push that agenda misrepresent facts about the
science as well in order to get their way. "By any means necessary" is
the motto for many people with such an agenda.

Sure. But with regards to the bogus reason that it should be illegal
"because it's bad for you". By that logic, eating eggs should be illegal
because they can elevate your "bad" cholesterol. Drinking water should
be illegal because you can drown in it (or die of water intoxication by
significantly "overhydrating").

Sure, I didn't mean to paint everyone who's against it with a broad
brush, but the majority (in my observation) use bogus science to push
their agenda. I live in Utah, and I see this quite regularly with
regards to the sin taxes on alcohol and tobacco (highest in the nation
IIRC), and given that there are a significant number of the population
here who are LDS who believe that even caffeine is "evil" (I've heard
some people say that - and if you think it's not against the C&Ds, try
ordering a Coke, coffee, or black tea at The Roof, which is a restaurant
owned by the church).
Granted, that's going to be something typically held by the purists. I
know plenty of inactive church members who drink alcohol and/or smoke as
well. But the alcohol laws in Utah have been backwards for longer than
pretty much everywhere else in the US (I think Kansas now has more strict
laws regarding alcohol than Utah). When I moved out here, a friend said
"Welcome to Utah: Step back 20 years" and at least regarding the alcohol
laws, he was right. There still are strange laws on the books, but at
least now you can order beer at a bar without ordering food, and I think
they might even be allowed to put more than one drink down - when I moved
out here, you had to finish the first one ("Don't worry, I'll wait" said
one waitress as I finished my first beer - and she held the second one
while I did).
So now I think we're probably only about 12 years behind the rest of the
nation. ;-)

Uh.. Sorry, but this is total bull. **Most** drugs need to stay illegal.
They have no medical use, their effects require you keep taking higher
doses to get the same effect, due to how they mangle your brain
chemistry, they often do serious long term damage, and they create a
danger to the public that, even more than alcohol, which you need to
drink a fair amount of first, even a single dose causes for the drug.
More to the point, overdose is caused as much by the need to keep
increasing dosage as it is by the effects of addins. A consistent dose,
with purity control, simply won't help *at all*. You would still need to
take more and more of it, to get the same result, and, in many cases,
its the impurities that keeps it from killing you dead the first time
you take it.
Point being, this is a bit like saying that alcohol should be classed
the same as hemlock, since both are poisons, but as long as hemlock was
properly regulated, and checked for purity, etc., it would be fine to
sell it, like like alcohol. Its not the same thing. Pot, or even coca
(before some idiot purified it into cocaine), is closer to alcohol in
effect than it is to say, crack, which **should** stay illegal, since
you can OD on some of that stuff just by taking it too fracking often,
not just taking a bad dose.
I seriously hope you where just failing to make a proper distinction here.
> * You have fewer people being locked up for non-violent offenses (such
> as possession or possession with intent to use/intent to distribute).
The problem is, we are willing, based on moralizing, and "they are not
victims, it was a choice", bullshit logic, to lock up *everyone*, from
the dealers, to the guy that had a small back of the cheapest weed
possible in his car. We make no distinction between which drug it was,
whether they are a dealer or a user, and we spend probably less than 1%
what we do to arrest people to **treat** them, so they don't use in
jail, or keep using, after they get out. Worse, more than half of the
"treatment" we respect in this country isn't medical, but bullshit like
AA for druggies, which **doesn't work**, because it doesn't stop them
wanting the drug, or even accept that it *is* medical, not religious, or
cultural, or 100% about whether someone "chose" to do it. Imho, the
idiots, like the moron pushing his, "Read the Bible and you will be
cured of everything! Addictions have nothing to do with biology or
science, or medicine!", types should be the ones in fracking jail.

For the sane drugs, definitely. Same can be said for more than a few
other things, including prostitution, which we have never gotten rid of,
but *have* turned into something where you can't get police protection,
health care, or a safe work environment, but *may* instead get arrested,
killed, hooked on drugs by the pimp, or even sold from one pimp to the
next. All hail our, "moral" solution to the problem.

No it won't. As I already said, 90% of the drugs out there make the
person need more, and more, and more, the longer they use them, its the
nature of the chemical process they work by. This, short of a treatment
like Ibogaine appears to provide, is **permanent** and **cumulative**.
The guy breaking into someone's house to steal their TV, sell it for
$10, and then break into 2-3 other places, to make up the remaining
amount needed to buy their "fix", isn't some guy smoking pot, and they
are not someone that is going to a) be off the drug when at work or b)
smoking pot. They are going to be someone taking crack, who paid $2 for
their first hit, $5 for the next one, $10 for the next, $20 for the
next, and now, at this point, is robbing 4-5 people a day, so they can
get 3-4 hits a day, because one hit won't do it any more. Purer product,
as you suggest earlier, does nothing but make the initial hit worse, and
escalate this process **faster**.
Pot and other drugs are *not* in the same category *at all*,
biologically, chemically, effect wise, with respect to what danger they
represent to the public, by the person taking them, etc, as the vast
majority of the crap they have "engineered" to give massive highs. Its
like comparing someone that likes holding up a lighter at concerts with
someone whose obsessed with making, and lighting off, containers of
napalm in random parking lots. No one that understands the difference,
especially on a biochemical level, would claim we would be in *great
shape* if we treated all of it the same, by decriminalizing it.
No, the problem the US has, is a 100% complete and total denial of how
bad the problem **really is** with most of the drugs, the false
perception that AA type programs work, (they actually fail at a rate of
close to 90%), how barely more effective "real" rehab treatments are, at
this point, (since they still rely on the idea you can just learn to
avoid it, without fixing the chemical problems), and a complete and
total refusal of most of the general populous to accept the idea that
the solution to the problem may *require* something as extreme to
"reset" the brain, as what screwed an addicts brain up in the first
place. It is, in fact, the argument that has been made for *at least* 20
years, maybe longer. "We **will not** allow you to research, or use, a
drug, which has narcotic/psychodelic properties, to *cure* addiction to
some other drug!" You can see this argument as far back as at least
1976-1983, when the same, "Why can't they try this as a cure?", argument
was being made on shows like Quincy, M.E., and some others. The reaction
from most politicians, much of the public, etc., has been everything
from, "We don't want something 'worse', like this, which people would
might take as recreation, but isn't addictive.", to, "Why are you trying
to cure addiction to drugs with drugs, instead of Jesus?", or similar
idiocy. And, in all of it, is a perception that is no more rational than
if 90% of the country told a guy that lost his leg in an accident, "You
chose to do what lost lost you your leg, so stop whining about your
'problem', and just walk already, why the hell should I help you by
paying for a new leg!?"

A little rabbit is running happily through the forest when he stumbles upon
a giraffe rolling a joint.
The rabbit looks at the giraffe and says, "Giraffe my friend, why do you do
this? Come. Run with me through the forest! You'll feel so much better!"
The giraffe looks at him, looks at the joint, tosses it and goes off running
with the rabbit. Then they come across an elephant doing coke.
So the rabbit again says, "Elephant my friend, why do you do this? Think
about your health. Come. Run with us through the pretty forest, you'll see,
you'll feel so good!"
The elephant looks at them, looks at his razor, mirror and coke, then tosses
them and starts running with the rabbit and giraffe. The three animals then
come across a lion about to shoot up.
"Lion my friend, why do you do this? Think about your health! Come. Run with
us through the beautiful forest and you'll feel so good!" The lion looks at
him, puts down his needle, and mauls the rabbit.
The giraffe and elephant watch in horror and look at him and ask, "Lion, why
did you do this? He was merely trying to help you."
The lion answers, "That little bastard! He makes me run around the forest
like a f'ing idiot every time he's on ecstasy!"
