re: #227 sizzleRI

I don’t see that. Marijuana in the United States is ubiquitous. It is not difficult to obtain. At all. It was easier to obtain before I turned 21 than buying alcohol.That to me really says everything.

I have friends who smoke and friends who do not. The ones who choose not to do not do so because it is illegal. They don’t smoke because they don’t like it. Like cigarettes or alcohol.

Hypothetically, you could grab 50 high school kids at random, all social classes and types (rich, poor, academics, athletes, goths, punks, etc.), and give them each $25. Then tell them they have a few hours to get $25 in alcohol or $25 in pot, either one, and they win some kind of prize or something. If they fail, they lose.

I can promise at least 40, if not 45 or more, would come back with the pot.
