How many marijuana overdoses recorded last year? None. How many people have smoked so much pot that they go out and commit a violent crime? None. How many people have smoked marijuana, got behind the wheel, and killed others? None recorded. Supplement alcohol in the questions above and the answers are in the thousands!!!! This is the 21st century, marijuana isn't going anywhere, it's time we regulate it. By doing so, we will put the REAL drug dealers out of business, bring some money to the state for once, boost the economy, yes, it will boost our economy, it will also free up prison space for non violent criminals, save taxpayers money, etc etc etc...As for the "so-called" negative effects on the brain, I ask you, what do you do for a living? I'm a practicing attorney that uses marijuana on a recreational basis once in a while. My brother is a computer programmer who smokes occasionally. I have a good friend who is a Dr at Boston Medical, graduated top of his class from Harvard, and guess what, he smokes marijauna too. Don't try to stereotype your so-called average smoker because everyone is different. As for adverse health effects, they are miniscule compared to cigarettes, so shouldn't we prohibit cigarettes?? There are far more pressing issues to debate over, this is not one of them.
