Why don’t you let people choose for themselves? You think it’s somehow going to hurt you? Those folks are doing it anyway, whether it’s legal or not.
Your war on marijuana is over. At least 17 states have decriminalized possession and use in some form or another. I think Mass. has joined that list recently. Now, New York is thinking about it by not arresting for possession of small amounts. Even New Hampshire, with Republican majorities in both houses of the legislature, has legislation pending.
It’s not a matter of if the Fed Gov would decriminalize it, it’s when.
So, stock up on your guns and butter for when the pot hippies come and put a drum circle on your front land.

Like many medicines, cannabis has harmful side effects. Cannabis, alcohol, tobacco, and bacon double cheeseburgers are all bad for one's health - why should that be reason to ban only the first?
