I'm not a member of the "legalize it" crowd. I went through my phase in high school and college like a lot of people did...I enjoyed myself....I still do occasionally.....but the idea of legalizing drugs just doesn't make sense to me.
HOWEVER......this legislation DOES make sense. There is absolutely no reason to put someone in jail for 6 months because they had an eighth on them, or a dime bag. I like the idea of having a fine....i'd even be OK if the fine were increased (you want to discourage drug use, even if you don't plan to prosecute and jail for it). Drug dealers would still be targets for incarceration and jailing, but the casual user would only be risking the loss of their stash and a chunk of change. That seems rational.
