But think. Decriminalizing isn't the same as legalizing. Decriminalize, but don't legalize. Legalization is almost as bad as criminalization. The difference is the ways it is almost as bad. Rather, decriminalize, and let us be free.

Btw, upon decriminalization, free all the illegal drug users who were never convicted of hurting anyone.

Cool

I have to disaggree. I think discriminalization ang legalization can be used interchangeably. Using marijuana is mala prohibita which means the use of it is not inherently illegal but because of a law criminalizing it, it became illegal. Now changing the law and discriminalizing the use of it can make it legal.  Smiley But of course the most important is to regulate who can use, on what purpose and how much dozage may use.
