Well it's ridiculous. Companies like Kellogg's do way more to drive up health care premiums than any marijuana pusher. Obesity is by far the worst health problem here in the U.S., not drugs.

Well, it's still an illegal substance and I don't see what being 23-years-old has to do with it. Illegal is illegal.

Once again I nominate you for Prez in 2012 I dont care waht they say, weed is a hardcore gateway drug. I cant even count how many of my former friends smoked weed "cause it was harmless" and then decided to go and "try something a little harder than weed". They're all tweaked out and jobless it sickens me.. but I still pray for them.

I've never smoked marijuana in my life; but I have known several guys in the Army who smoked it heavily in high school and, even years later, it was all they talked about. In fact, they frequently fantasized about being out of the Army so they could smoke pot without worry of the random drug tests. They spent so much time thinking about smoking weed again, that I really have trouble believing that it's not addictive.

There are also several side effects that I noticed including forgetfulness, paranoia, and a proclivity to believe in massive and improbable conspiracy theories.

but I have all of them and I've never smoked anything naughty

Yeah...I already have as bad a memory as a pothead and I've never smoked up...I avoid it for reasons like that. I will admit, I have had a curious interest once a year ago in trying lsd, though obviously I never did. I've only heard stories of what that crap can do to you.

i tend to think pot just enhances someones personality (paranoid people get more paranoid, stupid people get dumber, not much different than alcohol) i know plenty of potheads that most people couldnt tell if they where potheads unless told (not saying i dont know any idiots potheads, but i know sober people who are idiots to)

as far as a gateway drug, my guess is people that smoke pot then move onto harder stuff would probally still be in the same place they are now if pot wasnt there, pot is more common, and easiest to get, it only makes sense its the first drug people try, technically i would guess most people drink a beer before they smoke pot so if anything beer should be the gateway

its just my opinion, i just dont get what the big deal is, yes its illegal and alcohol is not, but i dont really see a difference between the 2 neither benifit or hurt anyone any more or less than the other

23 year olds often do minor things that are considered illegal. You know, speed, play poker for money, smoke weed, etc. THAT'S what it has to do with it. He's young and on top of the world, all that pressure on his shoulders, let him cool out for a bit. He was only this nation's hopes and dreams for an Olympics and all.
