I guess my use of the word promotion was incorrect.

Saying it is a convenient excuse is a convenient excuse to avoid the subject.
No. It's a valid excuse. Guess we'll agree to disagree on that point.

People are going to smoke weed. Period. You aren't going to stop it and really, nobody even cares, so it shouldn't be illegal.
Of course people are going to smoke weed and eliminating it will be like trying to eliminate cigarettes from society.

But while we hang on to these laws that pretty much everyone just ignores, all that money pours into the hands of organized crime.

You appear to be fine with that. Some of us aren't.
I'm not fine with money pouring into the hands of drug lords - wrong assumption.

I don't always agree with the laws that are set out, but do i try to follow them wether i agree with them or not. Yet somehow i'm made out to be a bad guy because i have no sympathy for someone who is charged with pot. Personaly the law for possesion for personal use is a joke, but at the same time i know that i could be charged if i got caught buying that product.
