Marijuana and the law

[Doubting Thomas]

I used to think that marijuana should be legal for recreational usage only, however lastly, my opinion shifted to it being illegal in any case.
For if you are a recreational user, you must procure the drug from somewhere. That usually is a drug dealer, that breaks the law so that it can supply users with its wares, and the continued use of these makes the drug dealer naturally commit more crimes in the future by selling illegal drugs.
Or, you could be a self-grower, in which you would be treated the same as a dealer, as you create a massive quantity of the illegal substance, whether to sell or for your own use, its the same.
I think it should be illegal for both use, manufacture and trade.

Um, you know we can change the laws to make it all legal, don't you? And keeping it illegal because it's currently illegal doesn't seem to make much sense, at least not in a progressive way.
