I know it is legal in other countries. I just don't think it would be good for the US culture.
No thanks....

Truly don't mean to be persnickety rabbit.......and I promise I totally understand your point in principal.........but......
Kids drink even though alcohol is legal in America (albeit NOT for minors).......and kids smoke pot even though it is illegal in America! I've always been of the opinion that the more you try to take something away from someone....the more they want it! Take sexuality for example! If one is brought up to think it a "dirty" experience..........they try to experience it and hide the discovery of it.....(ex. Playboy mags. under the mattress). There are much worse examples...but you get my gist!
My motto....don't make everything so taboo....and we'll not have the secrecy of trying to discover it!
