> Pot is pot, and everyone smokes it for the same reason- to get stoned.
The experience of many even on this thread argue agaisnt that.
Even "stoned" is a vague and slippery term. There are those who get well and truly baked, and then there are those who just get lightly buzzed. Neither appeals, but it's not my job, nor yours, nor the governments, to say that someone shouldn't be allowed to get all tore up at home.
Wrong. When your supplier also peddles his wares into my kids or grandkids hands, it is my business what you do. Society, yes even free ones like this, depend on basic laws and societal standards to exist. The reason this country is falling apart is because we are becoming a lawless, anything goes society, and like Rome and any other society before it, unless we stick to our foundational laws and standards, this one will fall too.
750,000 marijuana arrests last year. How many do you think were arrested while getting "all tore up at home"? Maybe 4?
I know you'd like us all to think that marijuana users are bothering no one, responsibly smoking a half-joint every other day "just to relax" in the privacy of their living room.
Obviously I, for one, don't.
