Do you think regulating marijuana along the lines of alcohol would result in increased drug addiction? If yes, why do you think so?

Do you both agree that there would be decreased profits for Mexican drug gangs and fewer SWAT raids?

Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise — pot is self very destructive.

A brilliant kid can turn into a complete idiot on the stuff.

Initiative, ambition and self motivation are gone.

Life is put on hold. And the fear of facing the realities of life keeps them using. A life that is a bit of a mess because they are using. Compounds the problem. And they are probably exposed to other drugs.

Eventually, after years in a stupor, they stop and they find out that they have lost 10 years of their life.

Very important years that would have been spent going to college, getting a degree, and developing a career and starting a family.

Their lives are forever affected.
