TREAT MARIJUANA LIKE ALCOHOL
I am not a marijuana user, and I truly believe its use should be
legal, at least legal for medical purposes. How can alcohol be legal
and medical marijuana not?
Alcohol has destroyed more lives than can ever be counted. Cigarettes
are the leading cause of cancer. I also keep hearing about the
long-term effects of secondhand smoke, and yet no plan to ban either.
You can drink all the alcohol you want, and puff cigarettes all day
long, but one bag of marijuana can land you in jail.
