Yeah, I’ve had that same discussion even as an adult. It usually follows like this:
“No, I mean addictive drugs”
“Like tobacco?”
“No, I mean psychoactive drugs”
“Like Coffee?”
“No, recreational drugs”
“Like Alcohol?”
I have never had someone give a description of why weed should be illegal but not tobacco.
Because you can quite easily grow your own weed avoiding them sweet sweet tax money you’re forced to pay when buying tobacco products. That’s the only logical explanation I could craft and I’ve been thinking about the same question for a long time.
no one ever told you? it was to fuck with leftists and racial minorities. the same reason for everything fun being illegal.
