For the sake of those who refuse to be careful, must we have laws that restrict the liberties of the intelligent?
Or can we legalize marijuana?
Police are wasting too much time and money busting small-time, private pot users, they argue, when they could be focusing on violent crimes, even terrorism threats, and legalization, and allowing the state to distribute marijuana could wipe out the underground market for the drug -- because the state could sell it for a lower price. But others insist today's pot is too potent.
