Why decriminalization and not legalization?
Alot of people seem to think it's a good idea to decriminalize cannabis but not legalize and to me this just seems stupid, the worst of both worlds, you remove penalaties for possession but you still leave an unregulated black market to supply the drugs to the users. The idea just seems stupid to me. Why not fully legalize and remove the black market completely.
Is the word "legalization" too scary for people. Maybe if we called it ending prohibition people would make the link with the alcohol prohibition of the 20's and todays drug prohibition.
