With that said, I am not willing to try to change anybody's mind on the subject. We each have our reasons for our beliefs and what anybody else thinks about them is irrelevant, unless one of your beliefs is trying to change mine.

EDIT: Anyone who has gotten drunk knows how their reflexes and judgemt are impared. Those who have not smoked marijuana can't possible understand the difference.
The sad truth is that they simply do not know.. It's all speculation at the expense of millions of Americans that could benefit from its legalization. I understand we will lose jobs due to the lack of need for street dealers, but little consequence in my mind.
