That's NOT why it lost, it lost due to it being a big business monopoly.

Don't lump Marijuana smokers with Meth and Heroine users, which it seems you guys like to do.

Are ANY "drugs" okay to your narrow mind?

Alcohol ... I would guess not.
Nicotine ?
Caffeine ?
Sulfa drugs?
Phenobarbital?
Dextroamphetamine?

We should all live under you and Finn's rules?

We see it .. we get it.. you will use drugs no matter what

ALL drugs harm "other" people.. but ..please.. keep whining about how they dont


I guess you don't understand that you have came in contact with a VERY VERY small percentage of Marijuana smokers, a FAR majority of them are average everyday joes, hold down jobs, have families, homes, you would NEVER be able to pick them out in a crowd, it fact I am pretty sure you come in contact with one almost every day and NEVER know it.

People who use any kind of substance are losers. Especially drunks and stoners.

A good point. Stealth and discretion are second nature for most pot smokers.

What a quote. "Land of the free doesn't mean free for all". Its like someone cheering on slavery, and looking for a sound bite. I bet you heard some cheering inside your head as you typed that.

I'm far more addicted to caffeine then most pot users are addicted to pot. I get headaches and withdrawal if I dont get it. And the health effects. OMG.

Caffeine is a hell of a drug.

And yet...you probably are addicted as well. And you ignore it by focusing on a addiction even less harmful, and less addictive then caffeine, and make that out to be something horrific. Even worse is your efforts have caused more damage then the actual use would.

EVERYONE knows someone who smokes pot.....nonsensical laws that get widely ignored cause contempt for law and order. Make laws that make sense.

And everyone knows someone who needs their caffeine. Who gains weight from the soda, or like me drinks diet soda, and wonders if the chemicals used will give me cancer.

Making caffeine illegal makes more sense then pot being illegal. And yet look at the nonsense that you go on and on about. Enjoy your coffee.....druggie.

Most things are, so why is this a problem?

Nah, if they wanted legal pot, they would have voted for it.
