If you read the Constitution of the United States, no where does it say the government has the right to tell you what you can and cannot put into your own body. Also I believe we've wasted far too much money, far too many lives and far too much time, fighting this supposed 'drug war'. If you look at the statistics, since drugs have been illegalized crime has increased, especially the homicide rate. this is almost an exact repeat of what happened when the government tried to prohibit alcohol in the 1920's -30's

Also a drugs usage isn't going to increase, just because you make it legal. You're not going to go and jump off the nearest bridge just because someone told you it's now legal to do are you?

that's just my 2 cents... i know i'm going to get some arguments

The constitution does say that we have a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness...What if my happiness depended on the death of someone else?...Would I then be allowed to kill that person so that I could be happy?...

Our constitutional rights end where someone else's begin...Drugs don't only harm the person who is using them, if that were the case, I'd say give them all they want, and eventually there would be no more drug users, they would eliminate themselves...

The constitution has been twisted and taken out of context, almost as often as the bible...Maybe even more...Sometimes it's just a matter of common sense:rolleyes: :)
