    From @usatodayopinion: We should do all what we can to avoid glorifying or sanctioning recreational pot for impressionable youngsters, especially preteens and early-teens.https://usat.ly/2zBDWqE

        If people want to smoke weed they already smoke weed. People like this jack wagon think if its legalized a whole crop of new weed smokers will magically appear. The train has already left the station, legalize it, be done with it, move on.

        It being a schedule 1 narcotic sensationalizes it. The US government did this, it's the only one who can rectify it.

        Yeah! We should only glorify Alcoholic Beverages on every TV show, movie, and county fair. That way kids will be safe and drink instead of smoke.

        We absolutely should. And as far as those informed adults that would like to consume cannabis? They should have reasonable access and freedom to do so.

        THC aka Marijuana changes the Brain. It is medically proven and also people are still driving so we now have a real problem on the roads. ma·ri·jua·na[ˌmerəˈ(h)wänə] NOUN cannabis, especially as smoked or consumed as a psychoactive (mind-altering) drug. Not good for Anyone.

        Educate yourself. That is from a study by Doctors. Do you know more than a Doctor? Weed is BAD news for a persons brain. It appears it has already damaged yours's.
