Hurray!!! They put me on a morphine drip when I got my leg jacked up, does that mean that it's okay for recreational use?
The pot argument is moronic, because it's "not as bad" as some drugs and it can be used medicinally, it should be legal...WHAT? My favorite is always the "well, hemp can be used to make things" argument. So if I can figure out a way to make a blanket out of poppies, I guess that heroin should be legal too.
Yeesh, admit it, for the most part the people that want to legalize dope are potheads that want it to be easier to get high, bottom line. Nobody gives a rat's ass about medical use-there are several alternatives that produce the same effect as any of pot's "positive attributes". We already have paper, clothes, rope, etc...thanks. Personally I don't care how you all kill yourselves or your braincells but please quit trying to justify it with all of this crap.
