Pat Roertson of 700 club say's Legalize It

[Markers]

“We’re locking up people that have taken a couple puffs of marijuana and next thing you know they’ve got 10 years with mandatory sentences,” Robertson continued. “These judges just say, they throw up their hands and say nothing we can do with these mandatory sentences. We’ve got to take a look at what we’re considering crimes and that’s one of ‘em.

“I’m … I’m not exactly for the use of drugs, don’t get me wrong, but I just believe that criminalizing marijuana, criminalizing the possession of a few ounces of pot, that kinda thing it’s just, it’s costing us a fortune and it’s ruining young people. Young people go into prisons, they go in as youths and come out as hardened criminals. That’s not a good thing.”

Wow If Pat Robertson agrees with legalization maybe it'll happen in my lifetime.

Pat Robertson is full of hate. I wish more real Christian leaders (who keep their religion out of their politics and vice versa) would vocally support medicinal pot, like the church in the Castro that ministered to gay people and passed out med-pot to AIDS patients.

I wish all politicians wld keep their religious beliefs out of politics but unfortunately the complete opposite seems to be the status quo....at least for the current batch of underwhelming Republicans.

I agree. Politics and religion don't mix, but they have never been able to separate.
