The problem with pot is the violence that surrounds it. At levels higher than the casual smoker or the $10-$20 a bag seller that sells to his buds, violence surrounds it. How many people have been assaulted or killed just to get you that blunt you just rolled?

I have been on many drug raids. In almost every one that involves sale of meth, crack, oxycotin, ect. we generally find pot for sale also. That is one hell of a dangerous atmosphere to go to buy a little pot.

On the other hand as a Law Enforcement Officer I encounter many people under various drugs. Alchohol, meth, cocaine users are generally more dangerous. I have had very few violent events with pot smokers.

I generally am not on the lookout for Johnny Toker smoking a blunt at his house. I have much better things to do than hook someone up for that. If you bring it on the street it becomes my business.

I am not here to judge my friends on this board. You gotta do what you gotta do. Just don't be bluntin up those Opus and PAMs.
