(4,451 posts)My mom is Mexican, she and my Mexican grandmother used marijuana for medicinal purposes. They would add it to rubbing alcohol and keep it in a dark cupboard for months before using it as a rub pain reliever.I never grew up with thinking pot was bad or profiling other users as nutty pot heads. I'm not a kooky far left or alt left person. I supported Hillary from the beginning. I knew she was a bit too conservative for me but she had other qualifications that I loved. Hopefully, in 2020 we could get a good candidate from the West Coast.
I think I smoked pot maybe 3 times in my youth then I bought a huge chocolate bar and had 3 pieces. I did not feel high at all. Just a body relax type feeling, like a muscle relaxer except a muscle relaxer gives me jimmy legs and this did not.
