To hear some of the posters here, you'd think that Marijuana was the curse of Satan and should be punished to all ends. Personally, I don't see why the drug gets so much attention. I've had three friends killed by drunk drivers but none by potheads.
We obviously have cops in here. Their power-mad cries of "Hey, you broke the law! You're going to jail!" echo over our TV sets amid the beathings and gangland shootings. But cops also gassed children in Waco.
I'm not a pot user and believe pot is bad for the youth of this country. I also believe its illegality has promoted more harm than good; it's time to change that and redirect resources.
And, yes, Marijuana causes death. Every person who has ever smoked marijuana has died.
"And, yes, Marijuana causes death. Every person who has ever smoked marijuana has died."
Huh? Did you mean every person WILL die? And lots of cops think marijuana should be legal and believe me, most cops let a lot of people go when they have pot on them. They often just dump it out (small amounts) and let them go. I would venture to say with an estimated 14 million pot smokers in the US, our "war on pot" isn't very effective.
