any prohibition law is contradictory to everything this country stands for. freedom will be truly achieved when i can sit on my front porch with fatty blunt and toke to my hearts content. WHY DOES IT BOTHER SOME PEOPLE IF I MAKE THE DECISION TO SMOKE POT? the only reason i can see is that we are run by an overbearing government run primarily by hardcore, christian, right-wing, conservatives who push thier values and opinions upon the public. we as a nation should rise and speak what we truly feel. VOTE NADER!!

Sure people say marijuana doesn't kill, but one thing for sure is it sure makes you a lot slower. I sure like to see anyone prove me wrong on that fact.
