So is it fair to say that proper time management takes a major part in this situation?

I would also like to mention that time management requires one to prioritize specific duties.

So would it be fair to say that if we are making time for fighting the sale/use of MJ we are cutting specific duties or pushing them back?

Proper time management has its place in EVERY job. Every job has requirements that some would feel is ridiculous or just does not agree with. What we dont get to choose is whether or not we should do them. If theres time for them to sit on the side of the road for 6 hours running radar then there is still plenty of room for other duties. The choice is whether they wish to actually protect and serve or generate revenue.

No that was the intended product of the argument.

Didn´t we cover this discussion on another thread on the pro´s and con´s of legalization of weed?

I´m pro-legalization. The only argument of the majority of people, and I think the strongest argument around, is we don´t know the long term side effects of weed consumption. I´ll give you that, but I´ve never heard of anyone overdosing on weed or having to have their stomach pumped because they ate too many brownies or smoked too much...so it´s my opinion weed is less harmful to humans than alcohol consumption. We can apply every law that applies to alcohol (no smoking and driving, no public smoking, no underage smoking....etc etc.) and have a functioning society.

I was just in Amsterdam this past week and found that legalization of marijuana had no adverse impact on the society at all. If people want to smoke they go to coffee shops...if people want to drink, they go to bars...drinking and smoking is not allowed in either one of them. And everyone is happy...riding around on their bicycles, going to work, shopping, etc etc.

I had the same feelings when I was in Amsterdam as well a few years back. When you saw some cop cars racing to a crime, you knew it was something worth calling the cops for.
