Paul commented on the article |One other note: Marijuana was legal in the United States until the head of the Bureau of Narcotics committed perjury before Congress in 1936. The government has been lying about it ever since.

The prohibition of marijuana is turning otherwise law-abiding citizens into "Al Capone". If cannabis was legally regulated and controlled, you would have commercial businesses checking IDs, making sure that children did not have access to marijuana. You would have tax-paying businesses similar to Anheuser Busch, Philip Morris and R.J. Reynolds, instead of organized crime such as Al Capone's illegal drug dealing of the 1920s. The fact is, marijuana is less harmful than either alchohol or tobacco; it is the prohibition that is causing the violence.
