Gracie, I'd say that the majority of Baby Boomers have tried grass and, unlike Clinton, they did inhale. Some still use today. Some don't. Some are chronic users. Some aren't. Some smoke grass on a truly recreational basis, don't smoke and drive, and are otherwise very law-abiding citizens. To me, it is less evil than alcohol.
I'm very pro medical usage of marijuana. When I was going through chemo, I could hold nothing down and no legal medication was working. Back then, there was no legalization. Finally got some joints from a friend at the advice of my doctor. That worked. The marijuana helped save my life as much as the chemo did. I didn't smoke any more once I was off chemo and haven't had any since. Please don't think that just because there is a pill that works for some or claims to work for all necessarily works for everyone.
