Also, there was a recent news report of a teen who killed his passenger THC was found in both of their systems in Rhode Island.

I'm all about freedom and "choice" but I believe there's more to this. Where do we set the bar as a republic? Alcohol is a drug and is legal, so all drugs should be legal? Making all drugs the same... so where will the bar be set? Cocaine should be legal too? Opiates, like heroin and pain killers?

You say "you people" need to look in the mirror, I reply "In the mirror, I see a person who contributes to society (honestly) and wants the best for humankind. A person who wants the issue people are escaping from that drives them to abuse alcohol or escape with marijuana to be resolved so that they can be happy without the use of drugs" Who do they see in the mirror?
