I smoked weed starting in the mid 70's..alot of folks did, thats why zepplein, skynard and floyd got big.
in the 80's I kinda got into a rut of being constantly high,,,during the whole 80's...
but we had to do alot of work to buy the stuff, not walk into a store...:/
in the 90's I quit, cause, hell I got high off not being high...lol
I don't think alot of weed is good for a person, maybe a lil to unwind (like alcohal)
I only know 1 person with a legit reason to smoke weed constantly, he would go into convulsion, and what weed does is slow the electrons firing in the brain, this helped him stop getting convulsions
I think weed might be ok once on a friday if your fishing or watching a movie, but if done alot it dumbs a person down...and if someone is on weed they might try worse stuff, it takes that guard down...
now the worse stuff in the 70's was coke or acid,,,,,but now they have meth and fentanyl...so thats a problem.
then the real problem is folks get on drugs and start talkin bout being multiple gendered...:/
so I don't think weed should be legal, but it shouldn't be 11 years in prison with no priors..
you want to keep kids off it, and have plenty of folks not smoking weed so the US can be competitive..
