I think it should stay illegal because sometimes when people smoke that stuff, they get crazy and they can't control their reflexes. We don't want them getting into their cars and causing freak accidents on the road. We already have enough drunk drivers as it is; we don't need drug drivers.
Well it doesn't affect your motor skills as badly as alcohol does. What people don't understand is that it's illegal to have a blood alcohol level over .08%. It's legal to drink alcohol, but not to get drunk, so people are breaking the law already when they're doing that. It's stupid to say that pot should be legal because alcohol is worse, because that isn't true. Alcohol is fine if it's used responsibly and in moderation, but it becomes dangerous when people abuse it.
