I don't support the guy but I do recognize that the WOD is a total waste of taxpayer money & has no effect upon the numbers of pot smokers in the U.S. People that want to smoke pot, get it and smoke it. People that don't want to smoke it, don't. The WOD is not stopping it.
I don't think anothers responsible usage of pot is a threat to me anymore than anothers responsible ethanol usage is a threat to me.
I don't want my confiscated tax dollars redistributed to the WOD. I want my money back.
BTW, I do not smoke anything, pot, tobacco or otherwise nor do I consume ethanol except in very limited, occasional circumstances, perhaps once or twice a year.
Your points well stated,even although I think your point is arguable,in an equal forum. One could follow some experts, who say that use of the plant leads to needs of a more powerful drug. This I don't know. Still, those on your side of the discussion will say this. That many solid citizens and with professional occupations smoke the weed, with no effect.
Thanks for your comments, we do have one solid problem, I will agree. For me the jury is still out, as to the value of massive deployment of man power here. My generation conjures up the drug dens and utter depravation- al la the Hollywood of the 1930's in relation to drugs.
So if pot were legal, we'd see no increase in the number of users.
Even you can't believe that.
