My experience is that people who are regular users of marijuana are not physically addicted, rather they have adopted a lifestyle that centers around its use. To criticize pot is to criticize their lifestyle.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

I think that's true for a lot of liberal pot smokers.

They look at it like: we smoked pot, we fought for civil rights, we protested the vietnam war. Ergo, pot smoking is as idealistic as the others.

Conservative pot smokers are another tale entirely. I don't get the appeal.
