I'm not upholding the views of corrupt politicians. These are my views, formed from seeing 1st hand the destructive nature of drugs. Each one of the family and friends that I saw destroy themselves started on pot.

As for putting a black mark on my son's record, he did it to himself, he knew the rules, and he knew the consequences he would face if he brought that crap into my house. He also learned a valuble lesson in the process. He is now an E-4 Specialist in the Army, is married and has a little girl. He has told me that what I did in that situation was the best thing that happened to him. He was 19 at the time, half a$$ing his way through Community College, bouncing from one dead end fast food job to another, and hanging out with complete douchebags. He cleaned his act up after this incident, and is better for it. You won't change my mind, and I probably won't change yours, but I'm going to keep doing what I do.

And, I have NO problem with it - in fact I applaud your unwavering stance. THAT is exactly what families and parents are for.

However, I have ALOT of problem when the government does it. It ain't their job.

And, as for me, I have had many, many more friends have thier lives ruined by legal alcohol than all other drugs combined.
