This issue is about choices we make in life and taking responsibility for those choices. I should have gone to college. I should not have married that person. Why did I take drugs.

Another dimension to this large verdict is the incongruity of punishing a company that produced unhealthy products yet state after state are passing laws allowing the legalization of marijuana that has 4 times the tar content of cigarettes and is as addictive....and additionally because of its "getting high effect"makes it riskier for people around those using marijuana. so if a person is driving in Denver and it by a driver high on marijuana expect a multiple billion dollar verdict against the driver, the marijuana producer and the state

Does it occur to some of us that people in this nation have lost any sense of common sense?
