[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pot will be legal everywhere before your kid turns 30. It's not a big deal. Quite frankly I'd rather see college boys smoke pot than drink - it tones down aggression and probably helps a really driven kid deal with stress. Don't worry about it at all! If you live in DC get yourself some and try it - you'll see that it's no big deal.[/quote]

Such an ignorant statement.  Pot fucks people up.  It alters brain chemistry, kills motivatiom and is a gateway drug to more serious addictive substances.  I have seen the devestating affects of pot firsthand on two relatives.  It is not a gentle drug not to be worried about.  It is a big deal and you are perpetuating mistruths.[/quote]

Two relatives?

Thanks for the anecdotes. [/quote]

As i just said in another post, you don't know what effect pot will have on any one person.  Yes I gave true anecdotes to make the point that pot isn't always the harmles drug it is made out to be.  It hsa caused some very devastating consequences to people I know.  The person saying it's no big deal doesn't know anyone that has been negatively impacted by pot.  Now she knows that to many other people, and I can guaranty you that my 2 relatives are not the only people negatively affected by pot, pot is a very dangerous and life altering substance and is something to worry about.[/quote]

To be fair, even your anecdotes prove nothing. Your two relatives may have been fuck-ups even without pot. They could have got into booze or a cult or prescription drugs or depression....[/quote]
