All criminals are idiots.
Marijuana use/possession is a criminal activity.
Those partaking in criminal activity are criminals.
Those who possess or use marijuana are criminals and therefore idiots.
The minute weed becomes legal, pot users cease to become idiots in my argument. Unless you disagree with my statement that criminals are idiots, and in which case we can have a debate about that another time, and on a different topic.

Except if Cops don't actually enforce anything when they find someone who has a small amount of weed (and I've heard/seen this happen in Calgary) then you have a law that isn't being enforced and thus is in some sense being socially accepted. So it ends up not being considered "criminal" by the very people enforcing it.
If most Cops don't consider owning a small amount to be criminal in Western Canada it kind of defeats your argument about weed users being criminals which makes them idiots. Not sure why you are so set on insulting a large percentage of the population.
Do you consider jay-walking to be "criminal"? It is against the law and not always enforced much like having a small amount of weed is. So is everyone an idiot? Because you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who hasn't jay-walked at one point in their lives.
