But they did reduce illegal grows, and that is represented by all the legal marijuana. No one ever said that legalizing marijuana would get rid of illegal marijuana completely. It would if there were no restrictions whatsoever on marijuana (how much could be grown, where it could be grown, how much could be possessed, who it could be sold to, etc.). You must think that no alcohol is ever sold to minors. You must also think that we should get rid of banks, as sometimes they get robbed. Sometimes women get raped. Maybe we should make rape illegal. Oh yeah, it already is. News flash for you.
