Teens should go back to smoking tobacco like a normal person instead of being a disgusting pot head.

Ah, but it is legal, so it must be safe and okay. /s

Not in favor of pot but I don’t think it should be illegal. It makes stupid people more stupid but you can’t make stupid illegal.

"Safe and effective" is the language they utilize.

Plus weed today is often cut stronger than yesteryears gone by.
I used to take pot and drugs in my teen years but today’s variety would scare me plus with fentanyl out there. Excessive weed use is for losers anyway.

I thought marijuana was perfect and a panacea, and it was illegal to insult it. May peace be upon it.

The four pot smoking kids I knew in high school, were not exactly firing on all cylinders before they started either.
Hardly scientific but made me to suspect that troubled kids turn to drugs sooner than others.

You’re okay with it being legal, Even if users get paid for by the government? And even though users get reduced punishment for property and human damages?

All the people who are okay with it being legal should check their a mark on their taxes so they can pay their share of the social services related to it.

You're a prime candidate for relief. Two negatives make a positive. Sort of like the beer analogy.
