<< Just curious as to what you guys think marijuana's legal status would be
in the 2060s, for the various North American countries. You figure it'd be
legal 100 years later? Controlled? Vanished through some strange sequence
of events?

Vanished?!? VANISHED?!? Good gods man don't speak of such things!!! ::starts
hoarding an emergency stash just in case:: I'd like to think it would be
legal, but unless they figure out a way to tax it I would highly doubt it. On
the other hand however, I don't think the corps would concern themselves too
much with enforcing the law even if it WERE illegal, especially with much
bigger fish to fry such as BTL abuse. Much the same as it is now, marijuana
thankfully tends to be ignored in favor of the actually dangerous and
addictive drugs such as coke and speed, etc... I know in my own little world,
when I'm running SR, it will be either legal or ignored...because SR is a
fantasy world, and erego, whatever you think it should be to enhance the
enjoyment of your players. If your troupe is strongly anti-dooby, then by all
means make it illegal and harshly punished. On the other hand, if a little
cannabis consumption is a regular part of your gaming group's get-togethers,
then let 'em be free with it.

Just my .02¥, which I could have been saving to buy more stash!
