Alcohol has been available and legal since it was "discovered". Prohibition was an attempt to clean up the country and failed like trying to switch to the metric system. Before prohibition though, getting a beer wasn't illegal like scoring some pot is today. Maybe I'm mistaken and legalized pot will become a reality, but I still don't see it happening.
No offense, but before DuPont lobbied to have Hemp illegalized in the first place to limit competition to its petrolium based line of products, it was not illegal to smoke a pipe or roll a dube either. Even if it they were just to legalize hemp, we would open up new potential industries for chemicals and textiles. Not to mention the new tax base. It would also help open up pharmaceutical research. Hemp, MJ and Humans go back a long way. It's been theorized by serious archeologists that it was among the first plants to ever be cultivated by humans for, especially for medicinal purposes. The Romans even used it. BTW if you must know I am often referred to as a plethora of useless information.
You're actually filling us in on some useful information! I'm just old fashion though and have never been interested in it and never got what was so great about it. I'm just going to vote with my conscience come November 3rd.No offense, but before DuPont lobbied to have Hemp illegalized in the first place to limit competition to its petrolium based line of products, it was not illegal to smoke a pipe or roll a dube either.

You know I can't find it in a quick Google search and I don't want to waste much company time (I am at work right now). I thought that Amsterdam would be the place, but as I recall I was told that was wrong. It wasn't Amsterdam. That being said, I can't find it and there are no gaurantees that where I heard it was 100% right either.
It should be legal for Medical Use. If someone can't use pain killers for whatever reason there should be an alternative. Not to mention that it won't F-up your heart muscles like Oxy will. BTW, this may sound stupid, but I thought it was already legal for medical uses in Maine?I believe your getting off the track. The question is would you vote for making pot legal for medical purposes only not for private use
I thought it was too, but I'm not sure if its officially passed yet or something. Maybe I heard wrong though.
care to elaborate? seems to me, we are all pretty much on the same page?
Basicly medical mj is already legal in maine..Question 5 on the nov 5 ballot would legalize nonprofit medical mj dispensaries,which would be regulated by the dept of human services.
not 18 so i can't vote
