Sounds like nothing more than a 'Lifestyle Choice", Steve.

Friend of mine posted this to FB few days ago, it shows how legalizing it in Portugal has effected the country. http://www.tdpf.org.uk/blog/drug-decriminalisation-portugal-setting-record-straight

and, the reality of it all is....
******************************"So what parties might be interested in promoting legalization of marijuana? Perhaps foreign countries that are considering legalization themselves and ultimately feel it might be a valuable cash crop. They might do well to look at the experience of those that have legalized marijuana, and are now rethinking the wisdom of the move, because of the increase in crime. Then there are the domestic users, who no longer want to hide in the shadows. Often the debate on marijuana includes a large number of habitual users.Lost in the narrative of those who promote marijuana usage are the consequences to society as a whole. Marijuana is known to impair judgment and compromise decision-making. What happens to citizens driving after smoking? What happens when employees show up to work still high? States that have legalized medical marijuana, such as Arizona and Oregon, are still trying to sort out this issue. What are the options for others unwillingly subjected to the stupefying second hand smoke that also is more damaging to cells and DNA than cigarette some? How much will the chances increase that teenagers will enter the drug culture? Studies have found marijuana hinders the development of teenage brains. Where medical marijuana has been approved, it has become clear many without a medical need have received the card.Drug legalization promoters often prefer to dismiss these arguments, rather than acknowledging their validity. Legalizing marijuana sends our society down a slippery path based upon unfounded premises." -
oh, come on, "second-hand toke" was funny.....

Just about everything listed there that's bad about pot can be said for alcohol. I see no justification for promoting one as a magical elixir and demonizing the other. The only reason pot is illegal is our willingness to go with the status quo and the negative connotation around it. I don't see how there is a case to keep it illegal.

Nobody is promoting booze is a magical elixir it's just that it can't be stopped now. If the idea is to have more people fucked up more of the time then you might as well legalize everything. if I owned a factory I'd be happy to let my workers snort coke all day. dexedrine? Bring it on.

2) no one said the idea was to have more people fucked up more of the time

Booze has been marketed as a "magic elixer" for 1000's of years.

This is still Q1, but that may turn out to be the best one-liner for all of 2015. LOLOL

Well I assume you mean beer because boos commercials are banned. But besides advertising beer as a refreshing beverage what elixirlike benefits are listed?1) watch a commercial for alcohol
2) no one said the idea was to have more people fucked up more of the time
So you think legalizing pot has a benefit other than more people getting fucked up more of the time?

But what is the cause and what is the effect?
Is the Pot responsible for making them 'stupid' or do 'stupid' kids tend to look for outlets such as Pot.
I continue to believe the legalization of Pot, or not, has its roots in Politics, rather than Medicine, etc. For one, I am not sure that legalizing ALL drugs will create more addicts that we already have. More casual users, perhaps, but so what?
To me, the article was unclear as to WHO was smoking the Pot - the two legged 'victim' or the four legged 'victim'.
Any way, Pot should be 100% legal, IMHO.
I am willing to reconsider my stance on all other drugs.
The War on Drugs. The War on Poverty. The War on Terrorism. Which one is working?
