+1 lol
I like you have no desire to use marijuana, whether legal or not; I just find it ridiculous that they'd send a response back stating the reasons why they intend on keeping it illegal are because of ill effects and public health. There are many other legal substances that people use daily that are known to cause much worse adverse effects.
I think the most absurd part is that it is a naturally growing plant, a damn plant lol. I can't stand that our system works off of "what if", so many stupid rules are in place because of "what if". I don't feel that the government should even have the power to tell me what is and isn't good for me, if I'm doing no harm unto others don't bother me.
I'm sure a good reason for them not allowing it to become legal is probably because people could then grow it in their own homes, so taxing it wouldn't work quite as well as they'd hope for.
