Ive seen people destroy their lives for ****ing drugs, just so they can get their next fix. My girlfriend used to have a serious problem with it as well. Ive seen how it effects people first hand. She's still trying to recover finicially, (5 YEARS LATER, STILL TRYING TO RECOVER FINANCIALLY), from all the damn pay day loans she took out so she could buy more drugs. I gave her a second chance and she cleaned up her act. Only now she has an alcohol problem. Oh yeah, lets replace one addition with another. If i didnt feel anything for her id have left years ago, but the alcohol is becoming a problem now. I wont marry her so long as she has addiction issues. If she toch's any drugs again ill drop her like a brick and wont look back and she knows it.

Naturally, i dont think legalizing pot is a good idea. You want to start to destroy your own life, fine, but leave others out of it with self serving poltiical agendas. leagalize marjuana indeed, F that!
Anyone that can't handle their drug use shouldn't use them regardless of their legality, but, IMO lumping every drug in to one governmental "don't do or else" basket like you are doing causes way more drug abuse than it prevents.

You cannot legislate morality.
