The law about pot is not an outdated law, such as the horse dragging law you talked about. The law about pot is discussed ad nauseam (look at the TFP forums) everywhere around the US and in just about every forum.
I am not saying it is right or not, but the MAIN reason I choose not to smoke pot is because it is against the law. What is so hard to understand about that?
I dont kill people, I dont steal, I dont shoot my gun in my neighborhood, I dont bash into cars because they piss me off. These things are against the law. Does smoking pot make your skull thicker?
I can or could smoke pot at any time if I wanted to. I could also drink and drive, I could puke on a police officer's shoe. But you know what? I would go to jail. And I dont want to!
So if you are honestly asking me if the reason I dont do drugs is because it is illegal, then your answer is yet.

I dont understand that arguement, why is any law correct? What about laws like "no eating oranges in the bath tub in California" or "no dragging a dead horse up main street on sundays" and things like that. Sometimes laws make sense at times and get outdated, sometimes laws are so completly wrong that they should never have been made. Have you read the Crucible? like really.
Is it that your afraid of the concequinces? which is fine, like that dude who failed a drug test in that other thread recently, he might loose his job over it, there are plently of valid reasons not to smoke pot, pick one, it's easy.
But, objecting to solely becuase it's illegal is kind of strange, what about the places where it's not illegel, would you smoke there? or what?
