Legal system now is set up to arrest as many people as possible to collect revenues via fines/court costs/probation so police departments can get some damn tanks and sniper rifles to "protect us from terrorists".

Such a joke.

It probably is being increasingly found at schools, but I'd say that's because it's the hot new controversial topic at hand and not because of mom and dad leaving it around the house. Give it 5-10 years and I bet the craze does down (in states already legal)

I'd say your experience regarding underage drinking is an outlier. Now it's 21+ and laws are a lot more strict. I remember having to jump through hoops to get a six pack

I pity the fool who takes a politicians word at face value. Talk about lessons unlearned.

D or R.. They are politicians. They do not care about you (unless you're one of their very generous donors)

It comes down to a personal responsibility issue for me.

Dumb people are going to be dumb. Don't punish the rest of the country (guns, McDonald's, beer, etc)

if push comes to shove and the American people ever need to take back the country from the government, the last thing I want is for the local police to have tanks while I have a BB gun

I think a standard assault rifle will work. No need for city police to have the latest military gadgets.

I'd vote for it....the billions saved in the "war on drugs" could better be spent elsewhere.......

But legalization and regulation would actually make it harder for kids to get it. Right now your kid can buy it from any one of his classmates with no real hurdles. Finding a source to buy alcohol was significantly harder for most kids in high school because alcohol has to be purchased by a 21+ year old inside a licensed store.

Drug dealers don't ID, stores do.

Ok real conservatives - would you vote for or against marijuana legalization in the state of Texas?

Fine with me. I support the legalization of prostitution as well. Hooker gets her money, guy gets the service he payed for. Win-win. Free markets right?
 

Personal freedom - Check
Tax revenues - Check
Less taxpayer money spent on court costs - Check
Less taxpayer money spent on jailing non-violent offenders - Check
 
 
Common sense would say that marijuana should be legalized, regulated and taxed in a manner similar to alcohol. For those without common sense who oppose pot legalization, can you give us some reasons why?

So you admit he's not a socialist, seeing as the rich have gotten considerably richer.
 
BOOM ROASTED
 
CHECKMATE KAPOW
 
 

I'm fine with legalizing and regulating marijuana without the taxation. Would that make you happy?
 
How about you answer the question? What is so hard about that? Do you support the legalization or marijuana? Yes/No and give reasons why. It's not that hard TVC, stop beating around the bush.

Ok legalize pot right after we legalize gambling (casinos)!

Lol... I'm talking to an old senile redneck stuck in his ways
 

We need to ban cheeseburgers as well. Too many fatties in this country taking up the parking spots

Republicans will kill each other off and democrats win by default in 2016

I don't know about you guys, but I am excited at the thought of a TRUE CONSERVATIVE running for 2016. Those dang liberals in disguise (McCain, Romney, etc) hurt our party. Now that we have a STRONG INDEPENDANT WOMAN who don't need no welfare running well be able to get this country back on the right track.
