The main reasons it is being legalised is to reduce the of influence organised crime and recognise that lots of grown adults are already using it. Plus it's kind of ridiculous that the stuff was illegal in the first place.
I doubt it will have much effect on crime
You see even today tobacco and alcohol are still huge cash cows for them despite the public consuming less
Totally agree throwing someone in prison for marijuana was absurd
Its like Prohibition all over again

What I don't like is people claiming it's some medical cure-all or super amazing pain killer we've been missing out on years. That's complete and utter crap but we'll hear about that for the next decade until actual scientists do some studies.
It certainly is a pain killer (any drug would be) the thing I have issue with is that people are trying to push it as being a healthy alternative
The term "medical marijuana" should be outlawed, I can't believe anyone can say that with a straight face

I also don’t think it would be a good idea for anyone to get high every day, just like you shouldn’t get drunk every day. Everything in moderation, right? What I do think though, is that there are a significant number of ignorant teetotalers who need to stop worrying about what other people are doing and chill the f out.
Stop agreeing with me, all that does is bring the universe closer to the apocalypse
