LEGITIMIZING MARIJUANA

By promoting its decriminalization or outright legalization, our government
is basically legitimizing marijuana's consumption and implying it's
basically harmless. As a former pot-consumer I, along with most of my
former pot-consumption peers, can attest to the permanent damage that
marijuana can cause to the consumer's body and mind. If pro-pot people
propose legalizing marijuana for practical reasons -- less pressure on
already-overburdened law-enforcement and justice systems -- that's a clear
and perhaps practical motive, but there's simply way too much
media-propagated BS telling our impressionable youth that pot is harmless.
