The pop culture image of the marijuana user won't help at all. Neither will the thirty plus year crusade against the tabacco industry. Still reach for my marlboros everytime I see a truth ad

I wanted to vote yesterday but got stuck at work, then after I had dinner it was way too late.
Two words; absentee ballot

I guess I was just being optimistic between the fact that it just makes sense to legalize it, and so many celebrities and a lot of politicians were actually for it.

O well, I guess we'll see what happens in 2012 when it goes up for vote again..

I believe you missed the point, being that Avatar has a disease and uses Marijuana as a medicine/pain relief from that disease.

Yeah.

That's what chemo does for cancer patients: relieves pain.

So a cancer patient is relieving pain, but Avatar is a drug addict?

You thought incorrectly.

Are you now going back to the pot argument?

I didn't call 'tard an addict.

I was pointing out that chemo is the exact opposite of a pain reliever.

I have known too many chemo patients in my life and NOT ONCE have I known anyone to enjoy it.
