same same arguement could have been made about alchol during prohibition. look at the world now. there is one key difference that sets pot aside from all outher hard drugs. and thatis that pot is no where near as harmful, to the body, nor is it as addictive. there are reasons why hard drugs are banned, i an agree with them 100% but pot isnt a hard drug. and all that aboutit killing brain cells. i go to UBC the 37th ranked university in the world. and i dont think i know someone who doesn smoke pot once in a while. its funny though cause if it were my choice i would rather ban cigarettes and allow pot, cause cigs are ALOT worse.
