hey rainchild. decriminalization is not the answer at all. if pot is 'de-criminalized', criminals will still be selling it. all decriming does is give pot smokers a break. it must be legalized. that way people can grow their own, or buy it from govt authorized outlets, allowing taxes and income for the govt.

and argante, i think you need to smoke a dube and relax.
i think we're having a pretty nice little discussion here. mellow out and join us. you obviously have stuff to say.
