Thank you. I agree that that is ridiculous. I have always said that legalization really should appeal to both sides of the political spectrum. The points you raise here function as a great conservative argument (I am not assuming your politics, by the way, but your points can be very useful in that reguard) for total legalization and I think that is a great way to sell the idea to groups who sometimes, strangely, oppose it.

I would say, though, that anything that keeps people out of jail is a step in the right direction but the regulations on weed are terrible even in legal states. I plan to cover a few of those things in future installments of this series. The next one might on home grow restrictions or maybe about the unjust "drugged driving" laws.
