Darth,
The only place I'm aware of, and I may be wrong, is the Netherlands where you can legally buy weed as long as it's for personal consumption and not for re-sale, and I don't even think you can legally leave these cafe's with it in your possession. They have places similar to US coffee shops catering to those that are looking for it, and have menu's not unlike those of McDonalds complete with pictures for even the most written word challenged to choose from. (you know what I'm referring to sandbagger, those goddamn potheads.)
There are other countries though where the authorities look away irregardless of the actual laws concerning such Hell-fire retributionals, Canada being the most obvious I can think of. Google the weed scene in Vancouver sometime. Though still silly Canadians, at least those people retain the ability to think.
Believe it or not, I started my voting life as a staunch Republican. lol.

in england weed is classified as a class c drug which basically means if you have it the cops cant fine you or arrest you for it.

if the u.s made weed legal they would probably tax the hell out of it.

Let em, just think of how many lives that would be saved if they could just take that same reasoning concerning other drugs? It boggles my stupid-ass noggin how much capital could be raised towards funding other of the worlds less desirable quandaries especially homelessness, hunger, addiction etc..??
Face it, they're all gonna be a problem either way.

i mean they should make it legal, me being a former stoner, i never once wanted to fight someone or do something stupid while i was stoned. but yet alcohol is legal and some people get drunk and fight and get in car accidents, wheres the logic, weed=chilled out having a good time you can function almost normally. alcohol= staggered walking impaired judgment among other things.

It's a stupid argument, and an argument I can't document as being 100% true, but they say (just who the hell are these THEY anyway) that the legal form of alcohol has killed far more than all the illegal forms of drugs added together.
Makes perfect sense to me though, once there is someone (i.e. lobbyist for example...Budweiser or something), with unlimited funds at their disposal, who will end up with the sympathetic ear on their side?? No brainer.

weed is legal in Alaska! Not for resale of course, but you can grow and smoke your own!

I'm not sure, but I think you can still get a doctors prescription here in California and start growing.
(Only for medicinal purposes now, you hear?)

The so called, "War On Drugs" is a losing battle when it comes to cleaning up the streets and population...But it is a money making war for the system...

sometimes i think it is everywhere . . . of course, i'm a counselor at a rehab, so i'm surrounded by it, i'm always surprised when i meet people who've never done drugs at all!
