Removing the income from crims, increasing the average age of first use, removing the most likely source of exposure to harder drug, removing a barrier to seeking treatment for those with issues, increased tax take. All these things sound like good outcomes to me, not saying I think pot is good at all but that the prohibition model has failed.

I have been told that one of the things standing in the way of law change is the lack of practical tests to show if people are currently high v were high last night. Having had to fire several people for drug use I can see the importance of the distinction

The ozzy police have a tongue swab method that is able to differentiate that they use in order to charge people with drug driving.

Seriously think about how many police have been shot at due to them busting someone's weed grow op, so many examples.
