Proving that even a stopped clock is right twice a day, Rep. Barney Frank along with Ron Paul introduced legislation last week to decriminalize the personal use of marijuana. This country wastes billions every year enforcing these stupid laws while cruelly disrupting and destroying the lives of thousands of decent people. Republicans and conservatives like to rightly point out the liberal propensity for arguing issues based on emotions rather than facts. They should take their own advice on this one.
Opponents of marijuana decriminalization will never be able to reconcile their position while alcohol, a far more dangerous and addictive drug, is legal. Prohibition of that drug didn't work either and served only as a source of income for organized crime. The prohibiton of Marijuana has been doing the same for far longer and has caused much more damage. It's time to end this insanity.
