I think this is nuts personally, being pushed by those who want to sell it.
1. They're already doing it while driving. You're already meeting them on the road.

2. Most people don't want to sell it. Most people who are prolegalization want to buy it, legally.

3. Your argument might make sense if you were also fighting for the return of Prohibition of alcohol, except it wouldn't make sense since it's already been proven to be a failure. The cannabis prohibition has also been proven a failure, which is why it's legal in 18 states already and - in fact - lots of your fellow Villagers are smoking or ingesting cannabis and related products legally already with a medical card.
