tell us what it will take for RESPONSIBLE ADULT POT SMOKERS to be given the opportunity to STOP being persecuted.

There are constant distractions and false arguments used to continue the prohibition of marijuana and the persecution of Americans who use this substance. We would like an explanation of WHY we need to continue to be prosecuted. It's not for our own good. It's not for the good of the children. It's not because of a false "gateway theory." Please Explain to us why it is a good idea to continue prosecuting adults who simply want a CHOICE of vice. Why is it economically responsible? Why is it legally responsible? Why is it just? Do you think this contradicts the American concept of Liberty? This petition is for what this site is intended for- a REAL explanation.
