Today in Connecticut the State government will begin debating a law which will decriminalize small amounts of marijuana (less than an ounce - possible amendment, less than half an ounce). This bill is a cheap attempt at legalizing the narcotic. I am strongly opposed to the decriminalization of the drug; they say that they are just simply fining persons for possession, instead of conviction. Some arguments include saving the state money and that it's not fair that a teen who gets caught three times cannot serve in the military. To the former, there are other ways of saving the state money, like cutting the representative's paychecks. To the latter, I do not want an officer in my army high when protecting and serving our country. Your thoughts? Am I crazy to think this way?
