Yep, I think the effects of legalizing marijuana would not be as drastic as everyone thinks, I dont smoke but I know at least 3 different people to get it from, and Im not even "networked"
But the "health kick" will probably ensure it never happens. Or if it does it will be regulated in the same way cigarettes are, which still makes sense to me. But as mentioned, everyone is afraid society will fall apart. Have we forgotten about the early 1900's when the stuff was perfectly legal, along with "magic potions" containing all SORTS of things including cocaine predominantly.....
You cannot overdose on marijuana by the way.
And off-topic, have we gotten so spoiled that smoking outside of a restaurant is such a harassment of our freedom? I mean, COME ON, damn. it's called common courtesy people. However, not being able to smoke in your own home IS ridiculous. But if you have a non-smoking spouse or children, it's something that should be obeyed...my dad smoked like a chimney inside our house and I always had lung problems and was never good at sports because of it, the effects were substantial. BUT the government stepping into family matters draws a dangerous line in the sand
