Sovereignty is Popular
Smoking marijuana, in most cases, is a victimless crime as there is no injury, with the possible exception to the person inhaling it. There is no property damage or bodily injury or otherwise any grounds upon which another party can bring suit. This includes the State/Federal government.

This cannot be a free country with the government simultaneously criminalizes the things people can purchase and consume. A person either believes in individual liberty or believes the government is supreme. There is NO middle ground.

It's not a civil right because it is illegal. SHOULD it be? Probably.

Absolutely. It should be a medical/health problem, not legal.

I think its none of the government's business if you smoke it. But the law's the law so right now its not a civil right.

If you are asking whether the government should have the power to regulate the ingestion of substances, the answer is yes, I think the government should have that power.

If it is prescribed by a doctor from something like cancer, then it is a personal right.

No, just like I don't believe it is a civil right for me to kill people who cut me off in traffic, chew gum with their mouth open or wear white shoes after labor day. It doesn't mean we can't dream though...
