• I agree! I think it's sad that we have more people in prison for committing consensual crimes than the "real" criminals who really hurt others (rape, murder, theft, arson, etc.). Not to mention that the police are spending their time arresting people who are not hurting anyone instead of looking for the real criminals. We are spending billions of dollars to fight a war (War on Drugs) that is senseless. We have become very distrustful of others.

• How about instead of spending billions jailing people for having pot, our stupid ass government legalizes it and TAXES THE SH!T OUT OF IT. Duh!! Make billions instead of spending them! Or would that make too much sense? lol. This mad tirade against marijuana is just sad, and I agree that it is quite senseless. There are MUCH better things to fight for, the politicians need new pet projects.

People that managing a gas station make 40,000-45,000 dollars a year.
  If I spend 4 years of my life getting a bachelors degree with an A average, do you really think I would mess that up? Get real. Everyone has their opinion-you don't know me, so there is no reason to offend me. You will be surprised the people you know and you have know smoke pot. Since you are making fun of people what job do you have?

• I'm not going to argue with you because whatever I say you are not going to listen.I used to be that way until I tried it. I don't have to ask a pot head because I do smoke when I want. I do not crave or have to have it. Sometimes I go months without doing it, and then I do it with friends just like one would have a drink with a friend. It is a fact that Marijuana is not addictive, you are smoking the actual plant so there is nothing added to it like cigarettes. And if you do really smoke cigarettes its pretty sad you are on here discriminating us when you are the one smoking something also for stress or to relax. That is all marijuana does is make you relax. People don't need to judge before they know the fact, and my aunt is on medical marijuana because her body has built an immunity any drug that relieves her pain. She has multiple sclerosis and without it she would be suffering. I don't see cigarettes or alcohol helping one. Look at the death rates of those and then look itup 4 pot

• If pot and alcohol is on the top ten list of why people die-then why is it legal. I think we should have a right to do it just like anyone smoking a cigarette or drinking alcohol. Smoking pot doesn't have any worse side effects than taking pain medicine prescribed to you. Even Tylenol taken too much can cause liver damage and holes in your stomach. Drinking too much coke can cause enamel on your teeth to come off and also put holes in your bones over time causing them to be very weak when you get older-my doctor told me that.

• hahaha candygirl your so ignorant, you can barely listen to others opinions, or in this case, facts. marijuana isn't technically addictive, it makes heavy users dependant on it. they will feel a constant good mood relaxed feeling, as they are high and have THC in their brains for a longer time (because a higher concentration of it has been built up). if that heavy user stopped once the effects had worn off, it would seem like they were very down, and prone to irritation or stress. this makes them want another hit on the bong to get them up. ask any occasional marijuana user that has a few bongs and a few joints on the weekend. its definitely not hard for them to stop after the weekend.
