This is the first time I ever voiced in on this issue. I had to break in and say this...Personally, I do not smoke weed. BUT, I hang around and ride with a lot of people who do.

They are all successful individuals(/couples) and Happy. The hard dope I can see your point, but the weed, ...maybe you're not looking at this from a Freedom standpoint. There are a lot of folks who I would much rather hang with high on the weed than others who are drunk.

Those of you who never indulged in anything other than a little Christmas cheer, you're unfortunately out of the conversation. You must know the difference in "High" from alcohol, and weed...In my younger days, I experimented.

As far as Libertarians go?...No Real interest in any present Party.

I appreciate you chiming in on this issue sit-rep. Some people see drug control as a law and order issue. Some see it as a freedom issue. I go with the former.

I grew up in NYCity during the height of the 60`s drug culture and have many experiences from my youth that I will never forget. But I did get around and know whats happening. For a period of time, I even worked in a drug rehabilitation center through my church. So when I talk about drug/alcohol abuse, I'm speaking from direct involvement and first hand knwoledge.

Remember one thing, one joint, a couple lines of coke, a mainline of heroin and you're high. Most people can have a few drinks and not be intoxicated. The same can't be said about illicit drugs. There's a big difference between alcohol and drugs like cocaine, heroin and marijuana. Many people believe marijuana is a harmless drug. Not true.

Btw, are you the same "sit-rep" from the website, "America's Situation Report"? Just curious.
