Sorry friend! Life was catching up with me. Yes, I’ve lived in Colorado, Oregon, California and very very close to Washington. I find Seattle San Fran and Portland cities that have completely succumbed to drug violence. I am not a believer in the utilization of any drug for escape. Their is one reason to smoke pot. To get high. Same with alcohol, heroin, and all mind altering drugs. Illicit drugs breed illicit actions. I am a proponent of THC and CBD in serious pharmaceutical form for pain management. That’s not yet happening. I guess what I was saying is that legalising pot created an enabler of criminality, poor choices and significant deterioration of moral fiber. I’m not a pot smoker. Never have been. I’m a 63 yo successful man that is now completely physically messed up. I’m not looking to escape. I know that I can steer my mind down positive paths. The more I do that, the easier my mind walks those paths. I’ve survived 40 years of of this pain with that methodology. I do not support h\getting high. It’s about escape and weakness. I do support drug intervention to control pain. Sorry for the long rant. Only my opinion and meaningful only to me.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I mean that sincerely. I know people who enjoy marijuana recreationally like some enjoy a beer or martini. If you need it, you’ve got a problem. I see trying to keep it illegal like a Prohibition era type thing. If a criminal wants it, they’ll get. But seriously, the folks i know or have known don’t smoke and get unpleasant...they are usually at home, watching a movie and eating something yummy. I don’t see it as a gateway drug any more than I view alcohol that way. There’s responsible folk and stupid folk. I am 70, live in Wisconsin and can tell you drunken driving is a very serious problem here that is still not being taken seriously enough! Very sad.
