Since marijuana is against the law, criminals now sell it to whoever they can get to buy it. If they decide to sell it at our schools, then that is where they will sell it. I think that regulation would be a much better procedure than our current system. It is difficult for school children to purchase cigarettes. It is easier for these same children to purchase drugs. There is some hope that pot smoking by school children might go down if a minimum age for purchase were established by the state. I think that eighteen would be a good age. Do you have any hope that pot will go away soon? Who do you think should have control? The state or the criminals? Current laws do not stop marijuana consumption. The method used in China worked. They shot every drug user they could find in the back of the head. Are you willing to go that far?
