Prohibition is EVIL, it prevents further scientific research on cannabis, it prevents sick people getting the safe medicine they need in what form they need it in, it jails gardeners and non problematic users. It does nothing to reduce cannabis use, it creates a black market, it glamorizes it making it more appealing for minors to sell or use, it disallows regulation making it easier for kids to obtain, disallows quality control allowing criminals to contaminate the worlds safest drug with hard drugs or poisons and this FAIL of a policy costs this country millions. The fact is if you want to see harm reduction and all associated crimes cease then the only logical step would be to introduce a regulated market. By handing this market over to criminals it has created new jobs for drug dealers and presented more dangers than the cannabis itself. Alcohol is FAR more dangerous than cannabis, yet its regulated (not as good as it could be), If cannabis was regulated properly it wouldn't be in supermarkets or sweet shops like alcohol and cigarettes are. There would be designated outlets, collectives, dispensaries or Dutch style coffee shops where no minors or adults would be allowed in without ID. Prohibition is dangerous! The propaganda is psychosis, even though there is not one study proving a causal link. Minors with developing brains should not use cannabis, or caffeine or alcohol and tobacco. Prohibition offers no protection. People with mental illness should stay away from prohibited cannabis as it usually has a lack in CBD (Anti Psychotic cannabinoid). People with mental illness are being treated with cannabis where its legal and regulated as they have a selection in CBD rich strains in herbal or concentrate form. Cannabis Prohibition is WRONG!

"The lesson has already been learned with alcohol prohibition. We tried to engineer an alcohol-free society and ended up with huge criminal enterprises, government corruption, children lured into organized crime and random violence that took the lives of countless innocent people."
- Kurt Schmoke, Mayor of Baltimore
