adding to that, i agree. like, if you have that same mentality towards alcohol, you're a forgetin failure, and you should be in a twelve step, yet it's totally cool to live a life devoted to burning a god damn plant? just smoke it and be happy, don't see why people have to brand themselves.
One thing I have noticed is that pot smokers go through 3 phases. The first phase consists of casual smoking, the second phase involves dedicated their whole life to a plant, and the third phase is where it becomes a occasional thing or they just quit smoking.
Honestly though, at this point we might as well legalize it. Right now I can buy a lab coat and pretend to be a doctor and sell people medical marijuana. We have all these fake doctors making a stuff ton of profit off the medical marijuana.
Basically
"Do you have Cancer or are you terminally ill?"
"No?"
"Are suffering from extreme pain or some uncureable disease?"
"Well I uh... got into a car accident and my hand hurts! Also I have bad gas!"
"Hmm.. I see. Take this prescription, here's your card."
"Nexxxxxxtttt!"
However In Washington and Colorado, I hear people aren't buying from official dispensaries and are instead are continuing to buy from growers and shady street dealers.
