the war on drugs is slowly coming to an end. Evident with 13 states who recognize the need for Medical cannabis. This issue is not a joke. If you think it's just a way for stoners to hide behind a legal law of some sort you are terribly wrong!

I do not know what things in Hawaii were like in the 70's, but in Texas kids from elementary to high school were buying Marijuana and PCP like candy.... by the 80's that had all but stopped. So I have to think that the War on Drugs has done some good.
it was all the BS the Government shoved down the throats of parents in America. Some took the bait ,hook line, and sinker...like yourself! But there is nothing wrong with cannabis whatsoever! Our Government like the current administration relies on scare tactics during the 60's ,70, and 80's. to scare people away from the harmless cannabis.
Of course this was also a perfect time for pharmaceutical companies to jump on the bandwagon too. For they had the most to loose back then, and now. Why do you think Pharmaceutical companies do so much research on Cannabis. They try turing over every leaf looking for scary evidence against cannabis. With Cannabis becomes a legal medicine like it should, plenty of pharmaceutical companies will go belly up. People will opt for cannabis to relieve pain instead of an addicting oxycotin at 10 times the price.

[ We do not know who bad thing would have been had the laws not been passes and the DEA not done its job. I do know this, every person I new in High School that uses Marijuana is dead, or has never amounted to anything. Most moved on up to the "better" drugs.
you're joking right? During the 60's,70's Texas had probably the strictest state laws against cannabis than any other state. My friend's kid brother got 15 years for a single gram of cannabis in 1968!!!
As for every person you knew in h.S. who used cannabis is either dead or in prison...you're from Texas ,right? I got no more to say on that!
Cannabiss is not a Gateway drug, get over it!!!!

[ That said, I think Marijuana and all other drugs would be legalized. but sold only by a licensed pharmacists, taxed to pay for rehab, and if anyone is cough selling to a minor or is not a licensed pharmacists they get the mandatory death penalty and all their assets goto the rehab fund.
how about a life sentence of "Hard labor", working on the Crawford Ranch of the world's most famous 'Dirt Farmer'?[:o)]

[ If you want to grow your own... no problem, but you also have to pay the tax. I don't want to have to pay for your rehab.
Rehab for cannabis,gateway drug, etc,etc, what armadillo did you crawl out from under?
