NJ Tackle, Slingah, Yup, couldn't agree more.... been sellin' booze for 26 years, know all too well the damage, and down side of that stuff, on the other hand, I know people who been smokin chit forever, and don't have the problems, legal, family, or medical, of the heavy boozers, nicer folk to boot!... know one guy in his 80's that still puffs it...
Legalize it, tax the chit out it, cripes, costs more to enforce the "law", and it gets broke all the time.... know some people that should take a puff once in a while

And if it helps somebody with cancer, or glaucoma, go for it!
me, don't do either no more......... too many other things to do!
