Poll: Colorado Wants Marijuana Legalized, Regulated Like Booze and Smokes

[Rain Mcloud]

43. I don't know about other folks but

to me a drunk is someone who has to have alcohol or they are going to be very sick.
An alcoholic is someone who is perpetually trying to quit drinking.
I wish i had back the neurons that i shot on alcohol over my career,i was lucky,i was able to stop.
I wish i had back all the money,friends,relationships and talent that i squandered on booze.
Other folks are not so fortunate and some eventually die.
It's not funny,it's a travesty.

Calling someone who uses marijuana a stoner is an easy handle,i did not mean it as a put down.
Alcohol and marijuana are so dissimilar that comparing the two is like Apples and Eggs.
Do You know anyone who has died from smoking too much pot? Or been made seriously ill?
I have not known or heard of any people suffering because of weed,in fact some of the kindest and caring people that i have ever known are stoner's.

I think our world leader's should all use it,Native American Style,when doing their summits.
The world would be a much more hospitable and pleasant place to live in,listening to other leaders with the heart instead of a jaundiced stink eye.
So i would ask that you consider the handle "stoner" is used as a term of endearment.
You have to admit that it goes better than REEFER ADDICT which we know is impossible.

Peace.
