Pot raid targets patient advocacy group

You know I am torn on the decision about marijuana. First let me say I don't smoke the stuff but sure as a teenager I inhaled a few times.. Been at least 15 years since I have even seen the stuff up close.. But I honestly feel it is no more dangerous then Alcohol, that I don't drink much of as well.. Hemp has many other great benefits as well if taken advantage of... Once when I was younger I asked a detective (drug enforcement) why he thought it was bad.. He said he believes it is a gateway drug leading people to harder drugs.. I at the time told him that I would disagree with that.. I then told him if anything having to do with a gateway drug is that it is illegal and to get it that you have to most likely deal with people who are around harder drugs, thus being around harder drugs one may be tempted to do them much more if they was never around them in the first place.

If you look into Holland where it is totally legal many who live there don't even smoke the stuff.(well into the majority) That should say something in itself. Like I said I have been undecided on this issue for a long time.

 

I agree that it not harmful, I smoked it thirty years ago when I was a young person, I if I were to smoke again would prefer it to alcohol.
