I'm 63. When I was in college (1967-71), marijuana became popular. I was not into the hippie culture. All the benefits of marijuana you hear of today were going around then. At that time I thought, yeah, sure...just excuses for people to legalize it just so they can get high.
After college and a good job, I got acquainted and became good friends with a group of about 10 or 12 guys. All were gainfully employed in high paying, responsible and professional positions. We became good friends. After socializing with them a while, at a party I found they all smoked pot. I was shocked. I was offered a joint but refused, told them it was okay with me if they smoked. I was never pressured. After a few years I tried it. I enjoyed it and smoked with them whenever we got together. One of the guys turned out to be a phoney and a loser. He told us about how great cocaine was and offered us some. We all looked at him like he was nuts and none of us fell for his bullshit. He left our group, and we said good riddance.
Since then, we've all moved on and I've lost contact with my good friends. I didn't continue to smoke pot because of legal implications and my employer testing for illegal substance abuse. But I did the research. Today I still do not smoke it, but I'm damned tired of people not doing any real research on marijuana, accepting the utter nonsense behind the keeping of pot illegal, and spouting off the same idiotic nonsense over and over.
Naysayers, for your information, when you've had a little too much alcohol nothing stops you from getting behind the wheel and you can pass out while driving. When you're high on pot, you look for a nice comfortable place to lay down. You don't just drop into unconsciousness like with alcohol.
If you believe pot is harmful, you've not educated yourself and you've bought the lies that lead to continued destruction of beautiful planet all in the name of profit.
