Even if it is, that would still be conceding more authority to the government than is reasonable. And it will leave open the possibility of re-criminalization and prohibition through another propaganda campaign such as the one that enabled the initial prohibition. Only when the courts acknowledge that the consciousness of the individual citizen is not the dominion of the government will the responsible use of such substances be legal. Of course, you should kick those a-holes (the legislators) out anyway. The problem is finding a credible candidate who would be willing to run for the office. Legalize it and leave it alone. -ED I doubt that marijuana will ever be legalized through the legislative action.

Obama already said he would not pursue medical patients, but they said he wouldn't legalize it. If it is available nation wide for medical use, then it will have to become somewhat decriminalized.
