Pot is legal in CO and WA

Pot is already accessible to kids. Kids get pot easier than alcohol.

The days of Prohibition are numbered. Congratulations to those two states, as well as the MA that will now allow legal access for patients. Cannabis is *by far* the safer alternative to alcohol.

Alcohol literally poisons your body. Cannabis does not.

Best educate yourself somewhere other than high times magazine.

Legalizing it won't stop people from renting houses, destroying the houses to grow their "medicine" and using massive quantities of herbacides and pesticides to get more out or their crop. Do the research.

Thanks for the tip, officer. But I don't read High Times. I read peer-review studies. You should try it sometime. Check out the organization Patients Out of Time and and you might learn a thing or two.

Easy...I am not saying cannibas doesn't have it's place. In fact, I am not saying I am against legalization. What I AM saying is that pot is not as innocent and innocuous as many people seem to think. Another thing, of all the folks I have come across who have "green cards", most were frauds. That is a fact! Absolutely, some people benefit from injesting it, one way or another, but there are also many dangers - medical, societal, etc. To say cannibas doens't poison your body is an ill-informed statement, at best.

Marijuana is a gateway drug. If you make it accessible to people, those people will distribute, or sell, it to the kids. These kids will grow to do crack, and will ultimately end up incarcerated. This will expand the cost for the department of corrections and overcrowd our prisons.

Because marijuana interferes with our ability to think, it will affect our ability to learn, and make people dumber, further damaging the middle class and creating more people who think that "the rich people are too rich."

I, personally, am against it. I will not support a hypocritical system that tells people to not smoke the very drug that helps keep them in the classroom in the first place.

Well said (or not said)

In my experience, not EVERY pot smoker ends up being a "heavy" drug user (heroin, meth, etc) but MOST heavy drug users did start out with pot. Like it or not, it's the truth.

And most people who have any addiction at all start out with cigarettes, alcohol or even Caffeine! Did you know caffeine was a gateway drug? I mean, considering the number of adults in the world who use that upper every, single morning there sure are a ton of druggies in the world.

Are you a caffeine user also?

2 cups of coffee a day. What's your point??

I will continue to use and cultivate cannabis as it is directly correlative to my overall success as a scholar, athlete, and capitalist. Yesterday's decision in those two sensibly brave states was a victory for social freedoms as a whole. I for one, embrace this positive change and welcome efforts to compliantly generate revenue for local/state economies.

There is absolutely NO toxic level in cannabis. Cannabis is actually safer than potatoes. It is impossible to overdose on it. But alcohol can kill a person. I'm not saying that it could never possibly hurt anyone ever. Rather, I am saying that there is no dosage of it that would cause any toxicity to the body.
