Another Reason for legal to grow and possess, illegal to sell

I don't see how free trade of cannabis would be incompatible with a better world.

I don't see how free trade of cannabis would compromise public education or cause people to be racist or cause progression of modern medicine to become impossible.

No one's saying big pharma can't continue to exist, or big prison can't continue to exist, or propaganda can't continue to exist, or that racism will flourish due to allowing people to do whatever they want with their own bodies, as long as they aren't unjustly depriving anyone else of their rights.

It is no one's right to make my preference illegal, for the purpose of eliminating competition for their own business. It is no one's right to force me to purchase anything, nor is it anyone's right to punish me for more highly valuing a competing and subjectively superior product.

And: why does anyone believe it is a bad idea to strive toward the best possible realization of an imperfect utopia? Obviously it can't be perfect, but look around; we could surely do better, if not for those using violence and coercion to manipulate all situations into their own favor, at the cost of others.

If a bunch of people prefer to live a life enhanced by cannabis, that isn't "taking" anything away from anyone.

If i don't want to buy someone's crap, i don't have to!

IMO, let people be racist; society will quell them in due time. I don't agree with racism, and neither do plenty of others... but i can't force anyone to agree with my worldview or value system... but what we CAN do, is simply refuse to deal with people who hold unacceptable positions on any matter. If you don't like racists, good! Don't deal with them. If a racist is allowed to refuse association based on race, everyone else is also allowed to refuse association with racists, based on that person's racist views. That's a problem that can actually work itself out.

The problem that doesn't seem likely to work itself out, is how our hijacked government has apparently decided we are ALL their property, not just any particular race, and that they can and should inflict harm upon, and deprive anyone non-compliant, of their human rights (which everyone in the entire world actually has, regardless of any group's lack of recognition or acknowledgment).

Who is it, again, who is supposed to be protecting us from "all threats, foreign and domestic?"

They are not doing their job. Instead, they serve the domestic hijackers, working to destroy what they swore to protect, from within.
solid rant
