@8ZL6BBD3yrs3Y
Yes, fore medical purposes and for people who smoke responsibly.
@9334YP33yrs3Y
No, but the penalty for dealing marijuana should be increased, rather than the penalty for using marijuana.
Deleted3yrs3Y
Yes, but it should be regulated the way alcohol is regulated, with similar laws limiting use during certain activities such as driving. There should be more research to measure the long-term psychological and neurological effects it has.

@8ZK5HYT3yrs3Y
Regardless, this decision should be made at the state and local level
@6HDD83R4yrs4Y
Yes, legalize, regulate and tax all drugs
@92YHQCV2yrs2Y
Yes, but only for medical use, and A. immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses, & B. legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it.
@8C4Q7JD4yrs4Y
yes, there are a lot of studies that show positive effects for cancer patients etc. but, make sure there are similar laws to alcohol.
@84JHJXZ4yrs4Y
Yes, for both medical and personal use. Also, release those serving time solely for drug possession.

No, not until there is long term research into its effects on the bodies.
@IINXMP4yrs4Y
Yes, but regulate it's manufacturing, requiring at least 40-50% consisting of CBD, not 10-20%.
@73MMLPT3yrs3Y
Yes, and reduce the sentence for anyone serving time for non-violent drug offenders and have a age restriction in order to purchase it.

legalize all drugs instead of criminalizing it.
@7NCC4DH4yrs4Y
No, but at this point, it is a lost cause. Marijuana has become the new alcohol.
@85QWNPG3yrs3Y
Yes, immediate release for anyone serving time for non-violent drug offences is also necessary, and the further decriminalization in posession of other natural substances is of utmost importance to lowering the extreme rate of imprisonment in many poor regions, and allowing more personal freedoms to those who wish to experiment with drugs that are far safer than both medications often prescribed and alcohol/cigarettes, which are widely available.
@8BVCB3Y4yrs4Y
Treat it like alcohol, and then decriminalize some other drugs
@8CN7P7L4yrs4Y
Yes, we could us the money to fund public schools.
@8F3TJ7L4yrs4Y
No, but sentencing needs to be less severe and those serving longer than w determined maximum sentence--ideally a short maximum--should be released.
@8HK5GRT4yrs4Y
Yes, recreational drug use should be allowed for any drug. The government shouldn't regulate what people put into their bodies, unless it poses clear public safety concerns (eg - DUI).
@8JDNVJK4yrs4Y
Not federally, but leave the decision to state governments.

Yes, there is huge economic advantage.

@8NY47RM4yrs4Y
Yes, but make harsher sentences on other drugs.
@8NY4BWF4yrs4Y
I think it should be legalized and taxed, but I also believe there should be someway to regulate how people that have used marijuana cannot drive while under the influence.
@8PB4YRX4yrs4Y
Yes, but there should be restrictions imposed socially and corporately allowing for regulation

Yes but it is a States rights issue
@8STPPF34yrs4Y

@8Y77Y9G3yrs3Y
Yes, but Marijuana should not be sold in any store, and individuals who sell Marijuana to minors should be jailed
@926DQTR3yrs3Y
Yes. The Government did a horrible job in the past of, and continues to fumble, enforcing the Law that makes the Drug illegal, and it seems to be a waste of resources to not fully enforce the law. Plus, Marijuana has medicinal benefits, which should not be restricted by if your State has Marijuana Dispensary or something similar.
@93CS3TH2yrs2Y
No, drugs, including alcohol and tobacco, should be illegal but decriminalized, and addicts must be helped through rehabilitation programs.
