Depends on where you are. Down here, we'll convict you for half a joint, and send you to the big house to think it over for 2-3 years.
State issue, IMO.
Where are you, Mini?

Alabama. Georgia and Florida are more lenient, but AL, MS, LA, TN, Ark, SC, they're similar to us in their views on pot. Bible belt and all, I suppose.
I have always thought it should be a State issue, regulated by ATF or a similar agency on a Federal level with State Law taking precedence as they do with firearms and alcohol.

I'd like to see marijuana decriminalized, and the DEA dismantled.

I personally would love to see the Death Penalty for anyone that sells drugs to kids or on school property.
I think it should be decriminalized with all laws that apply to alcohol use, applied to marijuana use. If there are tests to determine whether one is driving under the influence of pot, then all laws applying to alcohol use should be applied to driving under the influence of cannabis. Pot is a mind-altering substance.
What about companies that give kids drugs so parents don't have to do their job and the population can be more easily controlled?Alabama. Georgia and Florida are more lenient, but AL, MS, LA, TN, Ark, SC, they're similar to us in their views on pot. Bible belt and all, I suppose.

One would think that the very best TEST to determine if one's driving is imparied can be found in REALITY.
How many marijuana related accidents are there every year?
According to a study done in France about 2.5% of all fatal accidents involved drivers who tested positive for THC.
Of course that begs the question :What about the 97.5% of all fatal accidents where marijuana was NOT involved?
29% involved alcohol.
Now that leaves us with about 68% of all fatal accidents happening to SOBER people.
What does that mean?
That means that you are about 25 times more likely to be killed by a SOBER driver than somebody high on pot.
And you're a tad over TWICE as likely to be killed by a SOBER driver as somebody high on alcohol.
Ok what about your employer testing you for drugs? MJ stays in your system up to 30 days and shows up on testing.
Decriminalization of MJ is necassary in the fight against drugs as a whole. Remove the cash cow of MJ from the drug cartels and tax it like cigs and use that money against the more dangerous drug traffic. Take the cartels out of he MJ trade.
The prisons in the US are overflowing and most of this is due to drug convictions. Legalization of MJ would aleviate this to some degree. Not sure about other drugs though. Should we legislate what a person can do to themselves if they do it in the privacy of their home? Personally I think we legislate too much control over peoples lives, as long as what they do does not harm other people let them do it!

Still, t'aint unreasonable to ask that stoned people do not drive, editec.
Most studies find no effect of marijuana on psychomotor functions after four hours. This suggests that a waiting period of about three hours after smoking a medium to strong social dose (15-20 mg) will be sufficient to reduce a drivers impairment to that comparable to a blood alcohol content of less than 0.03%.
A blood alcohol content of 0.08% corresponds approximately to a THC concentration in serum of 9-10 ng/mL. (nanograms per milliliter a nanogram is one-billionth of a gram)
Persons who consumed marijuana within the last hour are likely impaired and will typically produce a blood serum THC concentration of greater than 20 ng/mL
Persons who consumed marijuana 48 hours earlier or who were exposed to second hand smoke will likely show a THC/blood serum level of 0-2 ng/mL.You Are Going Directly To Jail - NORML
Variable measurements of THC in identical blood samples among various forensic laboratories suggest that a safety margin of standard deviation should be included in testing standards. Researchers suggest a standard deviation of 3-4 ng/mL for blood serum testing when finding a concentration of 10 ng/mL or higher.
Effects-based laws are the most reliable means of determining whether a driver is impaired. Effects-based laws require states to prove that a driver was under the influence of marijuana in light of the totality of facts in the case: drivers conduct, testimony of witnesses, field sobriety tests, as well as any blood or urine tests. Such laws allow for cases where a regular marijuana user may produce a high blood level of THC but is not necessarily impaired.
Marijuana consumed together with alcohol produces a greater level of impairment. Even low doses of alcohol together with THC can produce significant impairment.
