Continuing Reagan’s failed War on Drugs.

Easier for teenagers to get weed than alcohol in areas that have prohibition of cannabis. If protecting children is the goal, legalization and regulation would help.

And teenagers have had those of legal age buy for them forever.
Exactly. So what have we learned from this? Where there is a will, there is a way. Keeping weed illegal does nothing to stop kids from getting high. You may not truly understand just how common and easy it is for kids to get weed. The stuff literally grows anywhere and there is an abundant supply, unlike hard drugs.

Still higher than the national average. Surely something to be proud of.
Nice to see you being blatantly dishonest. Your current claim is all about the children and you want fewer children using drugs. When presented with evidence that legalization accomplishes this you find something else to hang on to. If you don't want to acknowledge solutions that work to accomplish the goals you claim to be seeking why debate?

Except the kids that are afraid of getting busted, and I promise you the :censored2: that a kid might grow in his dads yard isn't the same :censored2: he's gonna buy. Did you grow :censored2: in your yard, of course not, fear of being busted, some kids won't use for the fear of being busted.

That is if anyone stipulates your facts are true, you inconveniently leave previous years decline in usage out also. If the numbers can be believed in the first place.
I have 2 questions:
1 Who rats themselves out on illegal activity?
2 Have the authorities dealt differently in reporting or charging since legalization?

You know someone has lost the argument when they resort to the "won't someone think of the children" cliche. It's the last resort of a failed stance on everything.

No, a RED X with no corresponding response is the last resort, or labeling someone as a troll, as IWBF has because they can't counter an argument beyond a couple of posts. I will take on dissenting opinions, questions, and degrading posts from anyone and not hide. Do you FIDO, @It will be fine , and @MAKAVELI understand that? If you are chicken:censored2:, be chicken:censored2:. Sorry Van for getting in front of you to respond to red x super hero. Pussywillows are becoming abundant in this place.

What point are you trying to make? Most drug users aren't addicts requiring treatment. Addicts that need treatment should have easy access to it without criminal liability. Are we on the same page?

you tried to make the point that legalizing is somehow better. How is it better when usage and addiction went up in your example. hope that helps.
