I will say that I just had this sort of conversation with a friend of mine. A lot of this discussion deals with morality and I don't think the government has any right to legislate morality since your morality and my morality may be totally different.

As for people who smoke pot being useless, I would like to point out that my nephew smokes pot on a regular basis and is a city planner with a master's degree in Environmental Planning and has designed a "gradebook" for neighborhoods that is being used all over the country.....so much for useless.

Oh, and I have never smoked it and never will, but, have never smoked a cigarette either simply because I think it's gross and stinks, but that's my opinion and I refuse to inflict my opinion on others simply because I choose not to participate....

Oh yeah...hey Soledad.....when I teach health I give them the facts and don't try to sway their opinion one way or the other!
