I'm personally of the opinion that it should be legal, but don't you try to kid me that marijuana is a completely harmless drug with no side affects whatsoever. It may not kill you like cigarettes, nor damage you as fast as alcohol, but mentally people just are not the same if they are active users. It definitely is a lifestyle changer.

The power of the drug cartels stems more from cocaine and crystal meth than it does from marijuana. That's where the real drug money comes from.
