One of the problems inhibiting legalization is that people that smoke pipes or joints are not considered serious or mature. It is This stigma that scares many pot users to hide that they smoke pot. Therefore the Reality of who smokes pot and how much the smoke is very different than it seems. The last three presidents were admitted pot users and by my Understanding the same is probably true of the first three presidents as well. Marijuana Legislation is very serious and has everything with how we define what it means to be American. What credence do we as Americans give the rights of the individual to the pursuit of happiness as well as a right to privacy? In the end it is up to us to be public about our choices and to Voice our opinions to the ones that ultimately decide what the rules are.

My pain doctor told me that if I do not stop i will lose ALL my man made pain meds for life. Now I am in more pain and in bed 24/7. I get piss tested 2 times a month and medicare pays the doctor $220.00 a test. Is this fair..no it`s not.. But I guess the law is the law. I am a disabled US Veteran with NO help from the Va. I guess this is what I get for the Love I have for America when I joined the Military when I was 17 years old.
