I do not currently smoke pot. It's not something I'd do, but frankly the government puts out a whole lot of false information about it, as do the anti drug groups. It's just not the problem they want us to believe it is, nor is it as dangerous as they want us to believe it is. Personally, if we are going to fight drugs, meth is a much more important issue with which to be concerned.

Meth isn't illegal, it's controlled.
Cocaine isn't illegal, it's controlled.
Marijuana isn't illegal, it's controlled.
Controlled Drugs
What is a controlled (scheduled) drug?
A controlled (scheduled) drug is one whose use and distribution is tightly controlled because of its abuse potential or risk. Controlled drugs are rated in the order of their abuse risk and placed in Schedules by the Federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

What is "illegal" are actions such as the illegal possession of controlled drugs, possession of controlled drugs for unlawful sale or supply, etc.
"Illegal drugs" is a figment of the imagination.

Americans aren't illegal, they're controlled!
