Flash Points: Stop the hypocrisy; legalize marijuana for medicinal, recreational uses
Which, if any, of the latest proposals legalizing medical marijuana do you support? Why or why not?
In a free society, adults must be free to make their own choices — so long as they do not interfere with the safety of others. Marijuana should be decriminalized, medicinally and recreationally.
Including the caveat that a medical provider must be present when it is used is absurd.
This debate ignites the ongoing hypocrisy of government banning the use of some controlled substances while legalizing the use of others — including alcohol, caffeine and prescription drugs.
