One of the things is that neither Alcohol nor dope damage lives, it's the tards taking and consuming it that are too thick to control themselves; hence the rest have to suffer. Same with gambling.

Oh, hell yes! Let's legalize making of atomic bombs too! Let's destroy ourselves and everything that our ancestors built for us before nature destroys us. Let's teach our children that the usage of drugs is acceptable, and when they grow up and no longer get a kick, they can move on to using heavier drugs, and then eventually die at 35.

come on Nevada! Vote Yes, if you want your state to be like Manhattan in ''Escape from new York''.

Well there's 2 sides to every argument, all drugs even prescribed drugs are bad for you in the incorrect amounts. And some people have addicitive personalities and will become addicted to anything. You can't protect them all

For me the only thing that having drugs illegal does is put money into the hands of the criminals who buy guns with it. Ifs it legal they will have less money to do that with.

I would rather see people taking a persribed amount of a drug and which is unmixed with all kinds of crap than to see people do it illegalally and be taking goodness knows what and putting lots of money in the hands of the crimnails.

We live in a free socitey and the downside to that is people will do things that you don't like, this is one of them, if they want to do drugs then at least we can try to make it safer.

And if the Goverenment is making money of it, then proper drug programs can be put into place.

But wether its legal or illegal they both have a down side, but thats drugs for you.

i would vote yes....if cigarettes can be legal and have not any good sense why shouldnt be marihuana legalized too? It has some effects (like alcohol) and alcohol is legal too. For me marihuana is not as "other" drugs. you cant die after one using (theoretically yes). I think that situation in Holland is the best solution and i would like if we have the same rules here(and i have not smoked marihuane anymore!) Other side is that smokers, who use it often and long time, become simply minded (but it is problem of that users, people using alcohol long time have the same problem) So YES :thumbs-up:

I never thought of it like that, so in a way maybe legalizing it would be better.

Yeah legalizing marijuana would pretty much be the federal government acting like a pussy. They would basically be saying, "Well, we can't win the war on drugs, so let's legalize the most common one!" The the day after that they will legalize cocaine or something. Give me a break, even if it is a state law, the federal govt. must have some kind of pull here.

Cigarettes and alcohol (not the song) have done more damage than pot ever did and they are legal. The government makes billions off that stuff, hell they make money off hookers somehow in Nevada.....might as well be stoned when you're pissing your life savings away at the blackjack table! Damn crazy Nevadians (?)!
