    I would like to know where drug free researchers compile their data, from snitches, the cops. It never does state where they get their prices from. I myself am directly involved in both and know the differences and why the prices are what they are.
    In my area legal weed is $105 an ounce illegal is 200+...

    It is not your data since you did not compile it. I will use my scale of the sale since I live in reality.

    Because there are more guns in circulation than people. If you banned the manufacture and sale of guns tomorrow, they sill leaves over 400 million existing guns.

    Your data also leaves out additional costs incurred like the two hundred and fifty cost of the doctors certification and review to prescribe medical marijuana and the fees to the state just to purchase..the only way to prove it is for you to get away from the internet and go and purchase the weed to see.

    The united kingdom has a far smaller population size, and a vastly different legal system, than that of the united states.

    Except for the fact that they are. If an individual wishes to own a handgun, a rifle such as an AR-15, or anything else that is quite commonly available in the united states, especially for the purpose of self and home defense, they are simply out of luck.

    More bovine excrement!

    The US legal system is based upon the British COMMON LAW precedent with a great many aspects being more or less IDENTICAL.

    The legal system of the united states is based on what used to be the legal system in the nation of Britain. It is not based on the current system in the nation of Britain, or the rest of the united kingdom. Nor does "based upon" mean it is an exact copy.

    Illegal marijuana doesn't need a doctors note.

    Your BOGUS allegation that they are "vastly different legal system(s)" has been DEBUNKED by the fact that the IDENTICAL ORIGIN and still FUNCTION along the SAME PRINCIPLES for Courts, Lawyers and Legal Authority.

    Except here in America we have partisan judges making stuff up based on their political beliefs not the constitution.

    What a crock of crap that has nothing to do with the subject at hand...

    Fact is illegal pot on the street is cheaper than legal pot purchased from a dispensary.

    Also, when drugs are illegal everyone using drugs isca criminal. So crime goes up when people use illegal drugs. Then consider that the drug cartels that drug users support are some of the most violent people on the planet, well, you have to conclude that buying illegal drugs means that you approve of their violence.

    There is more to addiction than chemical dependence.

    Anything you are unwilling to give up is an addiction.

    If you smoke pot and are unwilling to stop. Then pot owns you. Not saying that's necessarily bad , just the truth of the matter.

    When you start looking at the wide range and universality of addiction you can see the scope of the issue.

    Everyone is addicted to something and usually you can trace that back to being adficted to ourselves.

    And yet the two systems of today are not identical to one another, or even similar. No amount of condescending tone of address, or constant abuse of all capital letters, is going to serve to change that fact.
