&lt;blockquote&gt;awwwww precious….I sense butt-hurt….and a massively out-of-control ego given your obvious lack of substance.
 
How about we get back to you explaining the whole “Lifestyle BS” oh wise one?

Tim_CA on December 19, 2012 at 10:42 AM 
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

um.....waiting.....?

So....you&#039;re obviously not a little girl (per you...I can&#039;t make them run away)...so you must be &quot;in bed&quot; again.

Where&#039;s that super smart good speller who knows how to &quot;argue&quot;?

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;Mimzey is exactly right. The real motives are for destructive lifestyles to be seen as perfectly normal. Except potheads won’t sue churches, hopefully.

MelonCollie on December 19, 2012 at 12:35 AM 
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So help me oh wise one....how is smoking pot a &quot;lifestyle&quot;?

Is having a drink a &quot;Lifestyle&quot;?

How about a cup of coffee?

A ciggie or cigar perhaps?

What about anti-siezure meds prescribed by your M.D.?

Grow the frig up.

Legal issues by your state aside, smoking a joint is smoking a joint....just like taking a drink is taking a drink.  Nothing more, nothing less

If it was even 1/10 as bad for you as you geniuses want to pretend it is....everyone who went to college in the 70&#039;s and 80&#039;s would be friggin&#039; dead.

By all means oh wise one....let the government make your choices for you....it worked so friggin&#039; well during prohibition.

Friggin&#039; &quot;Lifestyle&quot;....FFS.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;For if there’s one thing on which we can all agree, it is that legalization will mean even more use by even more people.&quot;

I didn&#039;t see anyone address this assertion.  I disagree.  From around 1975, Alaska had legalized personal use of marijuana.  Studies in the later decades showed teenage use of pot in Alaska to be lower than other States.  Teenagers saw marijuana users as aging hippies and they didn&#039;t want to be like them.

Today, with marijuana illegal, marijuana is so widely available, that anyone who wants to obtain marijuana can.  How many of them are attracted to marijuana due as a &quot;forbidden fruit&quot;?  Will the number of users of marijuana increase or decrease?  No one knows, which is a far cry from everyone can agree.]]></description>

But that doesn&#039;t that mean &quot;no problem&quot;, or &quot;problem solved.&quot;

Being illegal didn&#039;t stop Ricky Gates. Because of that incident, the Federal Government is now in the business of licensing all railroad engineers. The railroad industry didn&#039;t need &lt;em&gt;that&lt;/em&gt;,  and the survivors of those killed at Chase, Md didn&#039;t need to deal with pre-mature funerals.

Public &quot;stigma&quot;, is the best way to deal with this.
That will require a revival of Christianity.]]></description>
