Rekreasjonsbruken av cannabis har blitt legalisert i 19 amerikanske stater og Washington DC. Ytterligere 12 stater og De amerikanske jomfruøyene har avkriminalisert bruken. Kommersiell distribusjon av cannabis har blitt legalisert i alle jurisdiksjoner der besittelse har blitt legalisert, bortsett fra DC. Personlig dyrking for rekreasjonsbruk er tillatt i alle disse jurisdiksjonene bortsett fra Washington State og New Jersey. Talsmenn hevder at salg av marihuana bringer inn skatteinntekter for stater og kutter ned på ikke-voldelige narkotikafengslinger. Motstandere hevder at marihuana er et kraftig rekreasjonsmiddel som kan føre til avhengighet og psykose.

Federal government should not be involved, leave it to the states.
@NMNMS55 år5Y
No. Drug abusers who want to stop their addiction should be offered treatment. I certainly don't see businesses allowing employees who are high to work for them. Marijuana doesn't make anyone a better worker, student, parent does it?

@LGWBC95 år5Y
Yes. Legalize, tax and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it. Prohibition of alcohol was a disaster and caused crime to surge - the same has happened with marijuana.
@NKKTLP5 år5Y
No, and make any detectable level in blood or urine be considered proof of possession and to be made public. However, limit the sanction to loss of driving privileges and loss of DOT or HHS jobs and loss of other jobs at their employer's discretion. Block all welfare, unemployment compensation and food stamps to anyway on marijuana. The public should not have to worry about their lives being at risk at work or on the highway, and the taxpayer should never have to pay for a dope addict.
@LJG6MT5 år5Y
Yes, but treat it as alcohol - so drunk driving penalties and other legislation should apply.
@NMHD685 år5Y
Nothing in between completely legalizing and freeing those from prior conviction and throwing their tails in jail? Somewhere in between the extremes is decriminalizing MJ for recreational use along with "Real", and get "Real" with your reasons, medical purposes. What I am against is legalizing MJ for just getting high and then hitting the "Un-stoned" population for money for rehab and/or support because you are too eff'd up.
@NDRPYY5 år5Y
Yes. Legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it but do not allow imports. It is impossible in ensure the quality and safety of the plants unless growing them is a carefully regulated industry.
@LZS7GR5 år5Y
Decriminalize the possession of marijuana, but keep the sale of marijuana a criminal offence. Also, free those in jail on marijuana possession charges and require that all marijuana users undergo a series of court mandated detox programs instead of going to jail. Jail the sellers though.
@LSC2DN5 år5Y
Legalize, tax and regulate at the federal level, AND release all drug offenders, hard drug offenders into treatment programs, marijuana offenders simply released with all record of a conviction wiped off their record.
@NNXSF45 år5Y
Leave it to individual states, make Federal Law subserviant to State law in this area, except for providing reasonable protections of extreme penalties & prosecution of transient outof state residents inadvertantly violating the states laws.
@N2HBWX5 år5Y
Yes, and immediately free all citizens jailed for non violent drug offenses
@N2JVCY5 år5Y
Yes. Legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it. Free all citizens jailed for drug offenses to further halt any costs of inmate food, water, etc.
@NCSR7K5 år5Y
Yes, and immediately free all citizens jailed for drug offenses while legalizing, taxing, and regulating marijuana instead of criminalizing it.
@LW5ZQ35 år5Y
Yes, primarily for medicinal purposes. However, they should follow the same guidelines as cigarettes (no smoking in public places) and alcohol (can't be under the influence at work or when operating a vehicle or machinery).
@NN4TF55 år5Y
"Medical" marijuana needs to be prescribed by a legitimate doctor and dispensed by a legitimate pharmacy just like prescription drugs. Second hand smoke from this is hallucinegetic for any who breath it even if your neighbor smokes it. So it should be regulated more so than cigarettes.
@NNRKYX5 år5Y
Why would anyone in their right mind want to legalize anything that causes anxiety, addiction, memory loss, panic attacks, mood disorders, psychosis, schizophrenia and many other mental disorders ???
@GGJSPL5 år5Y
Should be regulated the same as alcohol.
@LS8N9M5 år5Y
Yes, and immediately pardon and free all citizens jailed for use of marijuana, not the dealing of. It should be made illegal to operate heavy machinery and drive while under the influence of marajuana.
@LQDB445 år5Y
Yes, Legalize, tax, regulate marijuana instead of criminalising it, and immediately free all citizens jailed for drug offenses
@G3WTN35 år5Y
No, decriminalize it instead and free those in jail on marijuana charges.
@GH7B245 år5Y
DECRIMINALIZE IT, NOT LEGALIZE AS TAX IT AS THIS WOULD CREATE YET ANOTHER BUREAUCRACY. KEEP PENALTIES FOR SALE OF IT IN PLACE,THOSE THAT SMOKE IT SHOULD GROW IT THEMSELVES.
@GGCFZJ5 år5Y
let each state decide without any Federal Government interference.
@GGK6J65 år5Y
They are illegal for a reason. Don't legalize them ever.
@GHFWQN5 år5Y
Yes but only for medical reasons and to declared addicts.
