Reply #4: What is behind the desire to legalize pot?

[county worker]

I mean is it the desire to get high? Other than for medical purposes what else is it used for?

I know we have a nation of people who like to get an alcohol buzz now and again. But do those who want to legalize pot want to get high without the fear of being arrested?

Just my opinion but I think one of the reasons people are against legalization is the picture of a bunch of people getting stoned daily. I know they already do but why don't you come out of the closet and smoke in the open. Civil disobedience. Go to jail by the thousands, clog the courts, get real!
