Question by Master Bate: Is Marijuana Prohibition helping anyone?
I’ve heard alot of supporters of the Prohibition say they are helping people by preventing people from using marijuana, and thus preventing their lives from going downhill. Illegalizing pot, however, doesn’t prevent people from using it (as we can clearly see from reality), it just punishes them even more after they are caught using it, which is just adding to the burden of already being addicted to pot (If pot really is the addictive, life-ruining monster like heroin and crystalmeth that alot of misinformed people make it out to be.)

Keeping people from using marijuana would be more like making the Cannabis Sativa plant COMPLETELY and utterly extinct, or putting surveillance cameras over every inch of U.S. ground so that noone could ever grow it, or do anything else without the Government breathing down their necks and being aware of it.
