EPTLegalize it. It's the only responsible decision made if you want to ever be considered fiscally responsible. The results for the amount of money wasted in the War on Drugs are laughable.
Regulation is fine as long as it is within reason.

Have leaders agreed to something if this reaches 500,000 signatures? I can't see an internet petition doing anything real, especially influencing government officials. | ||

Cuz you know thats conservative whereas having even one spec of weed on you is enough to be charged for possession in most every other country. Not saying youll be convicted but you will be charged in many cases.  Netherlands you have the best legal policy out there and brought us Nils Christie, best country ever in terms of forward effective legal legislation. | ||

what people do in the privacy of their own homes with their own time whilst hurting no one doesn't matter; law enforcement should only step in, in the occurrence of violating another individuals personal freedom. Furthermore, when the person taking said drugs overdoses from said drugs, society will be better off without them as they are only bringing it down seeing that there is a very strong chance they aren't contributing to it. as for the bill, I honestly don't care. It is a no win situation: you either throw money at the problem to control drugs/educate or "regulate" them from minors and we all know how well that works with alcohol/tobacco... | ||

No flamefests please, this is a moment to realize that you do have that individual right to move something forward, to change something which otherwise would of HAD no change. Be appreciative. It's a known fact that the war on drugs is UNSUSTAINABLE, it is EXTREMELY inefficient and spending right now is the WORLD's thorn on its side. And the amount of money we spend on this is astronomical. I wish weed was legal but you remind me of the hippies from "Die Hippie Die." WE'RE GONNA SIT HERE AND LISTEN TO THIS CRUNCHY GROOVE UNTIL THE CORPORATIONS STOP." If you want weed to be legal then go spend money on politicians who will vote to legalize it, don't sit around hawking for e-petitions with typical SUPER-EARNEST but also KINDA SILLY stoner political rhetoric. Is it bad if i think the wars we are currently participating in are good? I am all for helping out the middle east. I personally do not want the war to be over and all our troops to be pulled out. Of course it isn't "bad," it's just solid gold trollbait for 75% of the people here who'd care to express an opinion about your opinion. Don't know you how evil and stupid the wars are?!?!?!?! | ||
