@wsh66, no worries, love! None whatsover

"I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in". We shouldn't have to parse out what is legal or illegal in which state concerning pot. The notion that pot is bad but alcohol is just fine is ridiculous. 40 million plus Americans have been smoking pot everyday since 1970. If it one tenth as dangerous to smoke and drive as the government says it is, our roads would be undrivable. If it were really the "access" drug that leads to hard drug addiction we'd have 100 times the heroin addicts we have. If it were legal and you bought it at the "pot" store or grew it in the back yard, you'd have never meet the folks that sell hard drugs. We've been living with these fantasies about marijuana since the 1920's. More recently it's been about the left versus the right culture wars. One half of all of the prisoners in our federal penitentiaries are there for 1/2 pound of pot or less. Who wants to keep things as they are? The private prison industry has the largest vested interest in keeping pot illegal. Folks who want to suppress the votes of black Americans are right up there too. One felony for selling pot, your vote is gone for a life time. I get really frustrated when I think about this assinein situation. It's gone on too long,it's time for change. So may of the people who participate in these discussion groups that we have could benefit directly or indirectly from legal marijuana. If anyone could buy medical product made from pot, the market would explode with good new products. Presently, that market is too small to attract real research dollars.

We indeed have a dope problem in America, we have far too many dopes in positions of power. Love and Blessings to each and everyone of you who read these comments and Love and Blessings to all of the folks who have created and sustain this absurd situation.
