"several times more tar and carcinogens than tobacco"
Nobody smokes two packs of joints a day! NOBODY!
With all the tar and carcinogens in marijuana, THEY DON'T HAVE TO!
You're right. Back in my bad old days (a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away) I only smoked about 10 or 12 in a day. %-)
I haven't gone near that stuff in a very long time. I still don't think that there is any reason for it to be illegal though.
I was speaking with a LEAP (Law Enforcement Against Prohibition) representative at last year's hempfest, and he said, "I've never had somebody smoke a joint and then try to beat me up. I wish that I could say the same for alchohol."
