I don't really care honestly.. people can do what ever they want to do with their bodies just keep me out of it. By that smoke in smoking areas not out in the street where other people can breathe w/e you're smoking or smell it.

and if it bothers them to smoke in a zone where only they will get breathe it then it deserves to be illegal because not everyone likes to smoke.:|

Distribution of weed has "few" ethical implications :lol:

I guess the little civil war that is going on between the South American and Mexican cartels and that gets tens of thousands of innocent children killed every year is not a big deal.

You're completely right, and if we legalize pot then it makes it easier to crack down on illegal sales and makes the cost of black market weed prohibitive in comparison.

Or the government can stop sitting on their asses because of corporate lobbying and actually deal with the problem. And the cartels don't just do pot... You'd have to legalize every drug out there too.

Insinuating that the cartel problem is simply a matter of government action.

For one, if there's no demand for black market pot then there's no point in the cartels selling it. There are costs to pot production that simply make black market production unproductive such as smuggling, paying dealers, and dealing with law enforcement. Without a good deal of profit from the black market they have no incentive to keep peddling it. Besides, dealers use weed to try and hook people on other drugs. If you legalize it you eliminate that element and you make it easier to police those other drugs.

Also, thinking about the cartel problems as simply a matter of resources is fallacious, we've been battling the drug trade for decades and we haven't made a lick of difference. People like you need to realize that the military and police aren't the solution to every problem, and that policy changes (such as legalizing weed) can have a more profound impact than just throwing more force at the problem.
