To be honest, I would compromise with the U.S. government for decriminalizing certain aspects of marijuana such as:
1. Marijuana cultivation with an EXTREMELY easy to acquire license required (like going in to pick up a fishing license) for personal use AND for selling to...
2. Marijuana stores. We already have tobacco stores selling us 500 deadly varieties of nicotine (which I consume wholeheartedly), so this is kind of a no-brainer.
3. Possession of marijuana up to ? (perhaps 10 kg?). This would allow enough growing to go around, and allow the DEA to do their fucking job and target the dangerous cartels that would...kill(?!) over weed. I've met a few types who are in it to stomp on anyone else just to get into a HUGE market with more competition than you could shake a stick at.
4. This is probably going to be a bit controversial, but how about I.D. required at the stores of 14+? I hate to say it, but marijuana CAN be abused, and I know from personal experience from early teen years that street ganja is a gamble: you can get a nice heady buzz, where you actually pay deep, close attention in class...and body stoned that you might as well bring a pillow to school.
5. This is sort of an extension of #1: No one under...16-18 can purchase it before school hours unless they can present a (again easily acquired) doctor's recommendation. If this sort of thing happens, I reckon brainwashed doctors will actually start to look at ganja as a verified source of ADHD balance, anxiety soothers, etc.
Penny for your thoughts?
