Yes.
"But it would end the stupidity of criminalizing non-criminal behavior, and likely would free up a lot of space in jails and prisons."
That's not a better world?? So, getting rid of insane laws is not a betterment? Why do it at all then? Makes no sense.
So people that downvoted me WANT to pay more taxes to support our prison population, when our schools are failing and we have two wars to pay for? I can't believe the level of retardation of some of the nutjobs on here. |

No! Instead of us against them, it would be them against them! It would be like the inner city for the world. This is my turf, don't cross the line or else! |

no but you could legalize small amounts of it say less than a gram..........it would save time enforcing it............driving high is not safe to those on here claiming it is........it only "feels" safe because your perception is altered and you think you are driving "better" |

Yes, but not because we could all smoke weed without being arrested. It would be better because fewer marijuana users would be wasting away in prison. |

Yes it would, it would prevent the jails from being overcrowded so the criminals who deserves to be in jail will remain there and legalizing marijuana would also help the economy
IMO marijuana is nowhere near as bad as alcohol and tobacco and it shouldn't be classified as a drug. |

1. We'd save money on criminal costs.
2. We'd make money on taxing it. |

No.

It doesn't make it a "better world". It just removes some of the insanity. Getting high is still a stupid practice, and we'll have more public high-ons to deal with.
It makes it a different world. Not better. |

I don't know about better but if cigarettes and alcohol (both dangerous)
are allowed I don't see why marijuana cant be legal. |
