It should be for medical purposes only.

I am for de-criminalization and not legalization. I have advocated for this for many, many years.

I'm up to 30 years sobriety now Ter and do not regret quitting ever and no ... I almost had a slug of wine at my brother's wedding which was way the heck back when I first quit but it tasted so wicked in my mouth that I spit it out into the flower vase that was on the table ... LoL

They can legalize it all they want , but only after i am dead. Just another stimulant that impairs people when driving. We have enough democrats in the USA. People who smoke that stink too. Just saw the ad above, Drug Treatment Chat..LOL

There's no way to measure the degree of impairment. You certainly wouldn't want me behind the wheel after just one hit. My youngest son smoked pot while he drove...scared the cr*p out of me).

I vote no.

I don't give a sh- - - if people use marijauna. I just don't use it myself, b/c it makes me feel disorientated and nauseaus.

I guess I wouldn't make a good drug addict, or alchoholic, for that matter.

Pot was legal until 1949. My grandmother, mother and other relatives all smoked pot or drank it in tea. It was consumed widely before the people of this country choose to build a new nation here, separate from from the English monarchy. Our leaders at that time chose to export tobacco to Europe, but not marijuana because tobacco is more addictive and our leaders felt no obligation to enlighten the British with pot.

In 1949, the Ilumenata leadership sought a firm grip on the reigns of power in the US and the consumption of pot presented an undesirable complication to the minds of potential subjects who were thinking excessively from pot use, the lack of chlorine in the drinking water which dulls intelligent response and a shortage of dietary iodine which if reversed would end many thyroid problems and pacify the populous. These dietary changes were supported in the German culture before WW2 and enabled the Ilumenata to control the German leadership and people.

I favor the legalization of pot for recreational and medical use. I think it is especially useful if you are looking for a solution to a problem that has you wringing your hands in worry because with pot there is a vast lighter side to life and a lot of those serious problems need to be taken off the stove and let it rest for a while.
