Davis Terminated! Arnold becomes Gov...

I don't think he was refering to smoking marijuana in a medicinal sense or for it's uses as a cash crop. I don't think there's anything wrong with using it as a medicinal remedy or as a means of making textiles, paper, etc. That, however, is a far cry from recreational use. Take it from a former loser...I smoked pot (or "cannibus" to those of us you'd like to think are uninformed) for 3 years just about every day so, while it may sound a little hypocritical, I actually know how badly it can screw you up. I watched good friends who had goals become listless wastes of space because they just wanted to get high. In that effect, yes, it's solely for losers who have problems they don't want to deal with. Cigarettes are legal because their metal effects are so minute that they're almost non-existant. Alcohol is legal because it can be regulated...you have no way of knowing how much tetrahydrocannabinol (or THC to those who are uneducated) is in one plant or one leaf or one joint. And NORML...NORML is a joke. They do lobby for it's medicinal use but they also advocate it's recreational use. That's a pretty slippery slope. They also believe that "drinking and operating heavy machinery while under the influence of marijuana should be prohibited". Ummmm....both are actually currently prohibited. So...to summarize:

1. Marijuana for medicinal uses (i.e. cancer patients, AIDS patients, etc) = good

2. Marijuana as a cash crop = good.

3 Marijuana because you can't deal with your problems = you're a loser.
