Cali to Legalize Pot?

[hideyoursheep]

Not that many people brew their own beer or make their own wine...

Your Appalachian offspring do it all the time, they just call it moonshine.

[hideyoursheep]

The problems of current would have a fiscal solution, but the further problems stemming from legalization would cause far more social obligations upon the state from the incarceration, lower work productivity, and highway accidents that would far outweigh any benefit.

Pot will never be legalized and it mustn't.

Remember that the next time you crack the cap on that bottle of stawberry-kiwi MD 20/20.

Seems to be some overlapping in those numbers. If somebody died from an "Incident involving firearms", wouldn't it likely be either a homicide or a suicide? Sure there's the occasional drunken hunting accident, where some idiot confuses a human being in camoflauge pants and a bright orange vest for a deer, but those can't be more than one or two a year. So that would make them Alcohol related as well.

I'd also wager that a lot of the suicides and homicides would fall under "adverse reactions to Prescription drugs".

Inhaling smoke of any kind can't be good for you.If you've ever tried to
keep the smell down by exhaling into a towel you've seen the residue
that didn't stick to your lungs.Imagine how much did.Look at a bong
and the shit that cakes up in it.Also I'm sure some stoned moron has
pushed his luck doing something stupid and ended up dead.As far as
an overdose , I doubt that's possible.You'd fall asleep first.I've seen
dudes choke from eating too fast when they get the munchies.None
of them died.Unless you're mentally unstable I don't think a pot buzz
would cause you to want to hurt someone or yourself.As far as research
goes it would depend on the agenda of the funder.If they are against
pot the research will focus on proving it's bad.Same goes for those who
want it legalized.Neither one would be unbiased.

probably went by the death certificate.

I don't think you would get "Poor Diet and Physical Inactivity" on a death certificate.

Mind you, you could have some pot deaths in there... i.e. too many years of eating munchies and sitting on the couch.

I've smoked since I was 12. Wish I'd never started. Whoever says pot isn't addictive, come see me when I've gone two days without a toke - can't sleep, can't shit, and bitchier than one could ever believe.

I tried quitting once, didn't fucking sleep for 3 months. When I found myself taking sleeping pills, I decided this is fucked, and went back to smoking. Like I say, I wish I'd never started.

My ex, who some of you may remember has Parkinson's Disease, couldn't function without it.

building shit is half the fun. Give me a bottle of water, a pen, foil and some tape and I'll have a water bong in no time, or a pipe. The only downside of the home-made stuff is that aluminum foil is no good for smoking, it's slightly dangerous.

You grow out that....
