Wouldn't kids still need an illegal method of getting pot? Therefore, still a need for dealers?

yes, it is. It's not resolved with decriminalization, but that is purely the step in the right direction.

Fake IDs and buying from friends like they do booze. They wouldn't need street level dealers

What evidence do you have of this?



You're talking to a guy who both simultaneously claims to be a doctor and claims that marijuana kills hundreds of people a year. He has no evidence because he doesn't understand what evidence is.

So glad you stand with the drug dealer selling to teens and preteens in schools.

My personal preference would be for decriminalization rather than legalization, but I think it should be decided at the state level. The people who claim that it is completely harmless and some sort of panacea are idiots, but so are the people that claim it is the scourge of the earth.

The only people left who oppose it are beyond reason - like many in this thread. Unfortunately, we can only wait for their antiquated political beliefs to die off with them. Won't take long though. We're up 30% in the past 10 years on legalization support and will have it passed in the next 10 years.

What did the mob do after prohibition ended?

Dealers are part of a distribution model which will be severely impacted. The only hope for he street level dealer is overregulation

but an all out decriminalization of all drugs will.

We just need to get Big Pharma to stop dealing the opioids and methamphetamines.

I oppose it unless there is a national vote to legalize because you can't contain it's usage within a state boundary.

Reduce the penalties for simple possession and increase the penalties for distribution, manufacturing, cultivation, trafficking, etc.
