Learn to spell. And don't sound so judgemental, your definately anti-marijuana by the way you interject your cooments. What happened to the liberties and pursuit of happiness, I have bipolar and MMj relieves me of the psychmotor agitation, just thinking about it relaxes me, and smoking it doesn't lead me to crash my car into a family of law abiding citizens. Where are their rights? Mj use has no victims if alcohol or tobacco doesn't, where's the justice of these laws? Human equality brought to this country post Martin L. King should have led to a review of the reasons for legislation. Inferior races? Doesn't the Mj part of the war on drugs seem like a waste of manpower and resources when it was initiated by racial causes? |
