I see the populace getting more stupid distracted every day.
Pot use is a part of it.
That said…leave it up to the states and pull the federal prohibition.

The “war on drugs” absolutely had a racial component.
You literally called for a regulation here:
weed has been legal here for awhile what have we seen?
increase good paying jobs, increased tax income, crime has not been effected still declining.
I was working on my ego and being considerate when I did you that favor.
You can have the point.
WuWei:Neither of which should be “regulated”, so yeah, get out of all of it.
You literally called for a regulation here:
WuWei:There should be no laws whatsoever regarding the use, possession, production or sell of marijuana with one exception - minors.
“With one exception”. What do you want from me? What are you looking for?
Agreed.

What other “regulations like alcohol and tobacco” are even controversial? Don’t drive while inebriated, don’t sell to kids.

What do you want from me? What are you looking for?
Don’t drive impaired is regulating driving, not weed or alcohol.
Minors - if their parents want to supervise them while they drink or smoke weed, ok. Regulating minors, not weed or alcohol.

Hope the DNS host never changes for the National Library of Medicine, otherwise he’d have a chest full of 404 errors.
And on Facebook, and on here.
What do you want from me? What are you looking for?
The avoidance of picking nits, because we agree on what the result should be.
Don’t drive impaired is regulating driving, not weed or alcohol.
Banning the use while driving/being under the influence while operating is regulating the use of it. If alcohol or weed are involved, then you’re regulating the use of it.
Minors - if their parents want to supervise them while they drink or smoke weed, ok. Regulating minors, not weed or alcohol.
Laws regarding parental supervision regulate the circumstances under which it may be used by minors. If weed is involved, it’s a regulation on the use of it under specific circumstances.

why stop there?
You know it’s been about 45 years maybe since I rolled one up and got high with my friends. Good times but I kinda moved on. Those ‘ 60’s and early ‘70’s were rough and I had some acquaintances that did time for.weed. But you know now that I’m older and the more I read about the medicinal benefits of boo, I must say it’s interesting.
Do they still make Maui Wowee and Panama Red?

Why do I matter to you? Why do you care what I think? What are you looking for?

I already said it isn’t.
