And what is so bad about that?

And as for the countries that were ruined by WWII, where would they be now without American help? True, a lot of countries were financially ruined after the war, but America helped them back on their feet with aide and huge loans that were never repaid, and most likely will never be repaid. Even the countries we considered our enemies at that time, like Japan and Germany, were greatly helped. Now they are among the wealthiest countries with a standard of living that is even higher than America.

However, the countries that fell under the influence of the socialist Soviet Union are still, to this day, unstable and on the brink of ruin and revolution.

Actually, during WWII Japan bombed Perl Harbor and invaded Alaska. That would be considdered fighiting a war on American soil.

Also, during the war of 1812, England invaded America and burn't down the Whitehouse.






But enough about politics, this thread was set up to discuss marijuana laws. And really, all the posts can be narrowed down to this:

Marijuana has never done any major harm to anyone.

Marijuana Laws, however, have inflicted great harm on individuals and society as a whole. These laws have wasted scarce national funds and resources, ruined the lives of individuals young and old by placing non violent people who have never hurt anyone in prisons, have denied medical treatment to patients with debilitating and mortal diseases, by creating a black market commodity that funds terrorism and violent cartels, and most of all, has made it EASIER for young children to purchase marijuana. There is absolutely NOTHING good that has ever, or will ever come from marijuana laws.
