We should discourage by educating/warning people how bad it is. It's really worked for cigarettes.
What about marijuana is terribly unhealthy? And can you point to one life marijuana has ruined (except by the state)?
I didn't realize we were talking about weed specifically. To me, it's already a given that weed should be legal, so when I said "I think all drugs should be legal but highly discouraged" I was referring to all the other (more hardcore) drugs that are actually up for debate in whether or not they should be legal.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
