Maybe the definition for “drug” should be looked at alittle closer when it comes to pot. My def of a drug any controled or over the counter taken in abundance which will then result in death. Overthecounter meds and perscribed meds if taken in abundance will cause an overdose resulting in death. Alcohol falls under that catergory as well. However, does marijuana? I have never heard of anyone overdosing and dying for smoking. How is it classified as a drug? Gimme some feedback and don’t forget it was the only plant that grew on king solomans grave and remember he was the wisest man in his days.

marijuana is a plamt therefore big phrma companys
cannot patent it bring them private revenue this
country has treated this as worse as it could get
still spreading its proaganda to cover the truth
take it off of the schedule 1 drug list where it sits
along with herion and cocaine and stop letting mass
media blur your truth

Cocaine is actually Schedule II. Somehow it has more accepted medical value than cannabis.

Legalalization of marijuana should have been done a long time ago and It is a medical herb that has no dangerous side effects. The government just wants the people to think it does so they can be so crooked as to shit on the American people. This country was founded under the right to be free and our freedom is being tok away. We need to get together as a nation and stand up to the government and put and end to thier lies and stop being so chicken shit and take back our freedom that was once given to us.Are we just going to sit on our asses and let the government try to fuck us any way they can by keeping the legalization of marijuana and raing gas prices or are we going to join together and fight for our freedom. Well I choose to fight. I don’t care if any one joins the fight with me but Im gonna stand up for my freedom.

[...] I think it is important to note the difference between legalization and decriminalization. I was under the impression he wanted to make possesion of marijuana a misdemeanor instead of a criminal offence or a felony, that does not make it legal.

What i dont understand is why the American people are so blind by the “war on drugs”. The mayjority of crime is in relation to drugs. By decriminalizing weed it would bring more peace to the world, boost the economy and save ALOT of gang bangers from shooting each other up over a dime bag. I dont see why a working professonal who smokes weed but still is a college graduate with a decent job in society would be labeled a criminal for smoking something that grows form the earth and poses no general harm what so ever. Legalize it and see the endless possiblilities of world with hope and give everyone a little bit of a sence of humor, maybe then our world would look a little brighter.
GO GREEN!

i had to walk away from my job of 13 yrs, actually 13 yrs ago cause i refused to tolerate random drug testing. i went from 12.75 per hr to packing hod for 6.50. now my son and i are self-employed, quite upscale brick/stone masons.the outcome is awsome and we now know what freedom means to us, but this sick shit should have never happened since i took utmost pride in my former machine repair work.at least i left with dignity after one on one meetings with all involved and my senator.such a clamor,ha ha..
