Well, I think possession of personal use quantities needs to be
decriminalized, especially for marijuana. I'm against lifting criminal
penalties for drug trafficking and big-time dealing.


That is a weasel position. Where are the "personal use" quantities
supposed to come from?
This is as bad as the other ill fated prohibition experience we had.
They tried to punish the manufacturers and importers without
criminalizing the use too.
You don't need a history book to see how that worked out, you just
need to look at our inner cities and the Mexico border..


Where? From licensed stores, of course. If you are over 18 and you want
pot, you should be able to buy a couple of ounces it at a licensed
store. The state would be able to collect its tax, just as it does with
cigarettes. There are ways to regulate how much you buy in any given
time period.


That is not decriminalization then, that is legalization. I agree it
is the only answer but there are only 2 candidates suggesting it, Paul
and Johnson. Both are written off as whackos.


Paul is a wacko for many reasons. I don't follow Johnson, just as I
don't follow a number of posters here. They're not going anywhere and in
the case of those posters here, they've not nothing to say worth reading.

I'm not opposed to legalization and control of marijuana.

Johnson is actually pretty reasonable but will never get much traction
because there is no big money behind him.

Even when he was polling better than some of the others, he was
ignored by the media.



I wonder when reality will hit Bachmann...
