167. It doesn't "mean little'. I'm not going to get an abortion, but I'm pro-choice.
I'm sick of my tax dollars going to idiocy like the drug war. I think we need to get government out of the bedrooms and bloodstreams of citizens. I think it's fundamentally offensive to any notions of human freedom to tell consenting adults they can't do something like smoke pot in the privacy of their own home.

Not to mention the fact that states like California are running massive deficits, when pot could be a revenue source much as the wine industry is. Like I said, I don't drink, either, but I'd be an idiot not to recognize that wine grapes are a cash crop.

It's funny you mention Amsterdam. The Dutch have lower rates of pot use than we do. Legal pot certainly isn't making it WORSE.
