I see the Department of Justice has reclassified certain marijuana products from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3. In case you're not aware, Schedule 1 means that a given drug has no accepted medical use and has a high potential for abuse. Schedule 3 drugs are acknowledged to have medicinal value and has fewer regulatory restrictions.
I smoked a LOT of pot in my younger days and absolutely believe this is a step in the right direction, and I may or may not indulge in the occasional edible if I'm in a location where it's legal to do so. I don't believe that pot is completely harmless, but I am fully convinced that it has medicinal value, and that it's no more harmful than alcohol. I believe the federal government should decriminalize marijuana and allow states to regulate the sale and consumption. As I say this, bear in mind that I live in a state that only allows medicinal marijuana, and even that is tightly regulated. I'd like to see it legalized here, but that's a separate discussion. Either way, it looks like we may be getting closer.

They should just legalize it already....and I'd love to say ban booze- but I wont cause I know some people usually do drink in moderation.....
Honestly, I would a thousand times rather be around someone who smokes pot than someone who is drinking booze.
You usually get one of the four kinds of boozers who when they are drinking either
A) Get affectionate and just loves everybody
B) Feel sad and cries on everybody
C) Get sick and throws up on everybody
D) Gets mean and wants to fight everybody
I've never seen a pot smoker who does anything but smoke, chill out and then get the munchies and then fall asleep.
Great for the food industry!!!
