Very few people ever got locked up in squalid and violent prisons for recreational pot use, and there is little reason to believe that repealing the law or strengthening the anti public smoking measures would result in that. Here's a thought, pot smokers should try being considerate of others, not smoke while operating vehicles etc.[/quote]

People are getting a few months - sometimes no time at all - for attempted murder in this city. Acting like repealing pot legalization is going to fill the prisons with recreational drug users is the kind of outrageous hyperbole that's too be expected by the activists here who are completely detached from reality.

And I feel the same way as the rest here, I was for marijuana legalization but would vote to reform it at this point. It's obviously failed, and all of the problems the advocates told us wouldn't happen are occurring. People are just openly smoking marijuana on metro cars at this point.

I hope someone starts a ballot initiative to roll things back.[/quote]

I was a big supporter of decriminalizing it. But I would honestly vote for it to be a criminal offense again. The pot smokers have absolutely ruined it with their selfish behavior. [/quote]

I would vote for it to be heavily regulated in public places, essentially banned in all but private homes, similar but perhaps more robust than current anti-smoking laws.  And just fine the crap out of people.

I have no problem with people smoking away from others, but I'm pretty sickened by the fact that my 8yo can identify the stink of pot because he smells it by his elementary school and local library all the time.  [/quote]
