Make smoking pot illegal

I am not suggesting getting rid of pot. That has been proven impossible, but that SMELL... Also the long term issues associated to smoking is well known, kills millions of people. Why not make smoking pot illegal, but ingesting THC in other ways legal?
Have a brownie, or eat a cookie, or put it in a candy bar or something. Anything that doesn't cause second hand <anything>.
If smoking pot was illegal, it would be easy to relay to the police.. impossible to hide.. easy to ticket.

That means the police would be tasked with chasing millions of pot smokers. Not going after violent criminals and robbers, which are a real public danger.

A much better way to deal with cannabis is taxing the sale of it, and education, NOT criminal penalties.

@badminton Right now they aren't chasing violent criminals or robbers so no difference. Just another revenue stream like speeding tickets.

@badminton Yeah I mean there are probably more people that smoke 420 than people who smoke tobacco.

I do not even "partake" but I say just make it legal everywhere. Maybe with the same restrictions as alcohol as far as 21 and over, don't smoke and drive, don't show up to work stoned etc, but really if someone wants to h*t the peace pipe, no harm.
