I found 1 prescription of Lortab (given after having a tooth pulled) more difficult to let go than weed was after an entire bachelors degree of staying stoned to the bone just about every single day.

It is no accident Big Pharma is pushing ketamine as the next big thing to treat depression. Jesus Christ, THAT scares the **** outta me way worse than weed -- and it should anyone else, too.

Big Pharma isn't in business to make cures, its in business to make people sick to peddle their "cures" and make more money. Why do you think Big Pharma has put so much money to fight ecigs? Why do they put so much money to hide the effects of food additives? Without sick people they don't make profits.

I've dang sure been on the fence bout how I'll vote. My gut is saying no. I hear decent points both ways. Right now I'm thinking I'll just stick with the current laws on it.

I'm pretty sure if medical passes then recreational will soon follow and I definitely don't support recreational. I honestly couldn't care less if you want to use it behind closed doors but I don't think it'd be smart to have it become a familiar thing.

Why? If you enjoy a beer now and then why not allow someone else to enjoy a toke now and then? Why can we inebriate ourselves with alcohol and not with THC? Why does the government get to dictate what we put in our own bodies as long as it doesn't harm others? DUI will still be illegal.

To be honest, I think a lot of the world's problems could be solved by having everyone smoke a joint together. I can not partake myself due to my occupation, but I should be the ultimate authority on what I can and can not put in my body, not the government.

It's kinda like smoking vs chewing. My use of snuff affects nobody around me. How many kids will be sitting in houses with smoke in the air, or riding in cars? I support anything that won't interfere with another person.

I assume you support all the other illegal drugs then?

Reminds me of walking into a Denny's once back in the day. The smoking section was the booths by the bar. That room was rolling in smoke. The number of booths in there with little kids sitting with their smoking parents made me sick. I was one of those kids growing up. That was a law I was glad to see passed. It affected everyone around them including those who had absolutely no say. I would hope parents nowadays have more sense.

Driving and smoking a joint would be illegal, just like driving with an open container. People who would smoke marijuana with their kids in the room are the same lowlife people who already do it now. Freedom can be scary. Embrace it anyway.
