Marijuana should be legalized, and could be taxed and regulated, it should absolutely be decriminalised. I strongly believe that those who were imprisoned for drug offenses should be immediately released in addition to the legalization of marijuana.
@96CRC9R3yrs3Y
yes but it should be legal to those who have permits
@97YCF7S3yrs3Y
Yes, but it's use should be limited to private locations
@B6WDWHQ2mos2MO
Treat it the same as alcohol. Regulate the strains being grown, regulate the conditions in which they are grown in. Allow citizens to grow up to one plant themselves.
@B6SQSR72mos2MO
From experience it is a burden on the public (new york, amsterdam). I'm not against it in principle, but public use should be limited. Think on premises licenses, similar to pubs. Go smoke it in a location, this creates economic activity. Or maybe at home. I don't want people smoking it on every street in a captial.
@B65TY4P3mos3MO
If cigarettes are allowed, and even kill but are still sold, natural , regulated tested cannabis should be legalised, but not sold by random dealers, taxed, and owned by government
@B2GVP7S9mos9MO
Yes, but a lot of consultation would be required and only for medical use in exceptional cases (for example cancer patients or multiple sclerosis)
@9ZVHMPY11mos11MO
I think legalize it but put out the true information about the benefits but also about the dangers and let people make their own choice on it
