Comments on: Because Women Are NORML Too! http://blog.norml.org/2009/10/04/because-women-are-norml-too/ Working to reform marijuana laws Tue, 14 Feb 2012 12:59:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Stilleto Stoner http://blog.norml.org/2009/10/04/because-women-are-norml-too/comment-page-2/#comment-59040 Stilleto Stoner Tue, 13 Oct 2009 23:20:36 +0000 http://blog.norml.org/?p=1803#comment-59040 Im so excited to see this, its a great feeling to know theres so many others out there who do this. Im glad its finally being brought out that marijuana does not necessarily lead to unemployment, or laziness, or crime - successfull and moral adults can do it too. And I love how this was compared to a glass of wine or a bubble bath, because thats exactly what it feels like to me. Its about time people starting seeing how pot isnt as harmful as everyone thinks - its not addictive, and it doesnt necessarily cause problems in ones life. In my opinion, alcohol is much more impairing and harmful. Go stilleto stoners! Im so excited to see this, its a great feeling to know theres so many others out there who do this.

It is my contract with the government but they seem to have breached it some time ago. I plan to take it back with some Court action that I'm bring to them instead of waiting to be one of their victims. I DO.

I pray everyday for the revolution or some major change in our government and society. I am tired of people looking down their noses at men and women who enjoy cannabis when honestly I feel that we're the ones who have it all together. The billions of dollars spent combatting the "war on marijuana" is ridiculous when in actuallity it is billions our government could make with the legalization and regulation of marijuana. I am a successful owner and operator of a small law firm in Southeast Texas. I have always felt that I could do more for the cause but never knew where to take my first steps. After watching the NBC interview I felt the urge to comment. I relate very much to the annonymous woman in the interview. My family is aware the I smoke and they worry only because it is illegal. I come from a family of women with chemical imbalances; my mother and grandmother are bipolar. Doctors have told my mother and sister that they will have to be on medication forever. I, like my sister, struggled most of my childhood and early adult life with severe anxiety. I tried smoking pot for the first time when I was 20 yrs old and it changed my life. The idea of being medicated by pills for the rest of my life is very saddening to me. I refuse to do so when I know there is a natural way to get the same effects. I know in my heart that if marijuana was legal it could change many people's lives that I know. I have been a regular cannabis smoker since my first toke. I don't walk around feeling high or out of control. I feel normal. I am always able to converse with others and do my job. I am certain that many lives would change for the better if marijuana was legalized. I have never been a big drinker, never abused prescription drugs or tried any other illegal substances. A very dear friend of mine died from alcohol poisoning two years ago, he was 21. If the system was different my friend would've never touched the bottle. He preferred smoking over drinking to take the edge off but after a few ridiculous arrests over a roach or two he gave up smoking and turned to the bottle. I believe he would still be here today if the Texas laws were different. I want to ask our government officials to explain to me how alcohol which has been proven to kill people is legal yet marijuana, which I have yet to read about the person who smoked to death, has remained illegal. I have no big beef with alcohol. My husband enjoys having a few drinks and occasionally I have a class of wine but I get infuriated everytime I see some biased government official putting marijuana on the same level as heroin when in all actuality it is less harmful than most things your doctor would prescribe to you. I've been fed up for years and thought surely things would have changed by 2009. I see now that I've ranted for a while, when I only meant to comment on the positive NBC interview. I really do hope and pray that this movement is taking off. Millions of lives would change. I was thrilled to watch the NBC story about average successful women whom are pot smokers.
