Just wondering, thoughts on legalization of pot.

Yes?

No?

Now, since the person who started this thread thinks it's a Repub./Demo. thing, state where you stand on that political scale if you don't mind.

Me thinks Independents/Demos say Yes, Republicans/Conservitives say no.
Republicans and Democrats say no because that is what the alcohol lobby pays them to say.

IMO, most conservatives/indpendents don't give a crap anymore than liberals do. It most definitely is a government intrusion on civil rights; which, would preclude it being a conservative ideal.

The only real difference between the two ideals is not whether or not they want to control, but WHAT specifically they want to control.
