It's sad because those are the same people that either waste their lives away getting high and losing any potential they had or either used pot as a gateway drug into something worse. I have a whole list of friends that threw their lives away during college and it was all due to pot. Some of them eventually recovered, most didn't, and all at the time said it wasn't a problem. I honestly don't know how people can be so stupid as to smoke pot. |
I won't try and debate recreational use of marijuana. However, I am pretty sure that you realize that plenty of people can benefit from using medical marijuana. Cancer patients and AIDS patients that get sick from the prescription meds can't even eat. Weed allows them to have an appetite after taking prescription meds. Glaucoma patients benefit also from marijuana. Anyways, for the USA government to label marijuana as a schedule 1 (no medical value) drug with heroin, etc.. is pure idiotic. At least some states have stepped up and realized the federal government isn't always right.
