Question by Metal Mike: Should Marijuana be legalized and how many people died of a Marijuana overdose last year, decade, century?

Best answer:

Answer by shweebe
It should be legalized, and it’s more vital than ever now with what’s going on in Mexico. I don’t think anyone died, except some idiots who tried to concentrate it and shoot it up. I heard 3 tried it and 2 died and the other barely made it. I guess it’s not a good idea to do that, don’t know why.

If Pot were legalized it would ruin the drug cartels in Mexico that are destroying Mexico, or what was left of it. We should take some smart measures that really yield effective results, not just get all hung up on some idiosyncratic garbage like we did over prohibition with such ugly results. If there had never been prohibition there would have never been the mob activity it generated and we probably wouldn’t have the Kenedys or Obama.    Read more...
