I think this one needs a third option
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
National marijuana consumption has hit an all-time high, with alarming results, a new poll has found.

The Debate
"My factory's productivity is down ten percent since marijuana was decriminalized," complains employer Steffan King. "And the number of thefts from the candy machine is off the scale. This so-called 'pot' needs to be banned in all public places. Let the junkies do what they want at home, but not in my workplace."
[Accept]


"Whoa, dude, no need to get, like, you know," says Free Your Mind campaigner Pip McGuffin, from his parents' basement. "This is, like, a personal choice issue, you know. It's like... whoa, just back off what I want to do with my own body. Don't let the fascists win, man. There are some hot new eckies coming in soon, they should be legal too."
[Accept]
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
A third option of allowing it to be banned in working environments and establishment that do not wish it on premises (bars, restraunts, etc (although only the swankiest most expensive restraunts, lets face it if mac donalds (the peutrid rancid rubbish that it is) had people smoking in the place their sales would go through the roof)

Anyway just my thought for the year

Amelia Bedelia trots in with a jug of wine as spews "if I can't drink on the job, then why are they allowed to smoke on the job?" "Keep pot legal for all I care, be darned if they take away my booze, but fair is fair."

Or....

Desire Moi saunters in wearing the black shroud of the day crying "Two days after this drug was legalized my husband got in airliner with 183 people. Needless to say that Jet crashed and killed my husband and all the passengers. The blame? It falls on the crack pot dope smokers that were supposed to be fixing the landing gear, but didn't because they were so whacked out." Drugs in the workplace are dangerous, and my husband's death and the death of those passengers are proof." Outlaw drugs in the workplace!!!

I like this one but it is to similiar to the 1st option check out my one
how about this
"How about just restricting it to a sensible amount?" asks a man having a pint. "Not enough so that they are wacked out of their minds just enough so that it satifies them and everybody is happy!"
[effect] limit is put on cannabis smoked in workplaces
[stats] civil rights decrease by a very small amount
