Or maybe the government should just legalize it and regulate it...
I think you should just concern yourself with your own business...I RARELY smoke it, but I think that telling people to quit because 4 cops were killed is ridiculous.
THAT is far-fetched.
P.S., For a lot of people, illegal economy provides a better standard of life than legal employment could. Whoever killed these cops is SICK, but a lot of pot growers are just chilled out folks...Not evil crime-doers.
Take a trip, read a book...
Look outside of the "Alberta way of life/way of thinking".

Instead of just categorically dismissing Sylvanfan's correlation maybe you could provide the logic that leads you to that conclusion.
You may THINK it's far fetched or tell yourself that it is to further justify your indulgence, but Sylvanfan showed a logical progression that leads to a conclusion. Can you?
P.S. Just because someone can make a better living illegally than they can legally doesn't mean they should does it? Does that justify illegal activity in your mind? [/b][/quote]
Yeah I can. It's already de-criminalized.
Legalize it. Monitor it. Regulate it.
I think the same should be done with prostitution.
Both of them are going to happen anyway so why not make them safer?
As an anthropology student, I've learned and I think that making a living in the illegal economy is more a societal problem than a problem of specific people, per say. We discriminate so terribly as a culture, that it's an inevitable progression.
