    How much longer?

    How many more lives ruined? How much more money wasted on police, courts, jails, prisons? How many more of our tax dollars wasted in a futile quest to stop people from doing what they have done for as long as there have been people, which is to enjoy intoxication?

    How long before the message that marijuana is safer than any of its legal rivals sinks in? How long before we can publicly discuss what so many law enforcement officers admit privately: the drug war is a massive failure, and completely counterproductive to the goals of keeping drugs away from kids and helping addicts recover?

    How long before we accept that part of freedom is the freedom to allow others to do things that we don’t approve of?

    How much longer?
