...why? Your drug seeking teenager is NOT innocent anymore... and there is no evidence whatsoever mj is harmful in any way at any age, hell, Clinton's first Surgeon General actually openly recommended mj for morning sickness... and if my kid was looking for weed I would much rather he get it from a trusted source than be smoking paraquat drenched brick weed found in dark corners of warehouses, having been lost for decades. They will find it, and if they don't, god help you, because then they'll be switching to much dumber things, like drinking or doing inhalants. Or slamming Red Bulls like Cory just mentioned. Caffeine is actually quite addictive and kills people (heart problems...). It's very stressful on the body. The high doses you find in those drinks makes them feel like hits of speed.

So you're justifying giving other peoples kids drugs? Good luck with that!

You prefer your kids smoking paraquat and huffing spray paint?

MJ is blown completely out of proportion... if you don't think kids should smoke mj then you should be taking away all the coffee, red bull, etc. as it's proven by science to be far more addictive and physically harmful, sometimes deadly. Same with ice cream and soda and bacon.

Evidenced based reasoning...

Honestly if a kid is going to experiment, what are you going to do? All other forms of 'buzz' are scarey as hell. Alcohol. What 18 year old hasn't tried alcohol? (Same ones that haven't tried pussy probably.) Ya, let's bitch about pussy for a minute. What can screw a kid up worse than pussy? Nothing. But what kid is gonna take our word for it? None of em. lol.

its an herb that has countless benefits for humanity, and only one flaw, which is it is So suited to humanity, humanity think it MUST control it on every level.

On the subject of discipline...

My parents were of the "whack em" school of thought and it certainly whipped me into line at times, but not out of respect... rather, out of fear of the consequences, with a burning sense of resentment and desire to skirt the rules...

My grandfather never laid a finger on me or raised his voice once, but when he was disappointed in me he made it clear, and believe me, that sunk in far deeper than getting whacked. It made me really respect him and genuinely desire his approval, and helped me to see why my behavior had to change, rather than just ruminating on "my stupid dad i hate him i hate him!" typical teenage bs.

Maybe some aren't like me that way, but at least I know if I ever had a kid like me I'll know how to raise him.

I agree with you purk.

I wasn't beaten as a kid, but I certainly had my fair share of lickens. As a parent, I just assumed that physical correction would be a part of disciplining my children. My wife had other ideas, as she came from an abusive home, and felt that hitting our kids wasn't an effective means of discipline. I agreed to try it, under the pretenses that we would not take it off the table if the situation presented itself.

Almost 10 years, and 3 kids later, I can confidently say that hitting your kids does NOT have to be a part of raising them. I do believe that every kid is different, and each child may or may not respond well to different stimuli ..... but positive reinforcement coupled with active parenting can yield great results. We have 3 well behaved, respectful children that have never once had to be hit. There have been times where this theory has been tested, and I've been tempted to whack them upside the head, but it's never come to that.

Total legalization across the country.... no cards, no md's ..18 and over can buy from a store or from a grower on the street...each state can charge 100$ a year for a grow license and growers pay income tax on sales.testing facilities available to get product checked for harmful chems and insecticides and for potency...This would create many legit jobs and the price would drop 50% across the board..schwag would be a thing of the past and the cartels would be cut out completely..home grown american green would be available to anyone at a good price.

I don't think it's a big deal to card kids. I agree that it's relatively harmless and won't hurt them but society says they can't have booze til 21 can't vote til 18 can't drive til 16 (or something, aparently that changed alot since I was kid) so weed at 18. it makes the fools who fear it feel safe and let's ADULTS do as they please, legal at 18 and card my son (stupid bilboard especially when the very next one is a beer comercial with all the things preteen and teenage boys would die for: chicks, tits, cool cars, status etc.) I can hang with that til the rest of the world comes around and sees it as harmless. call it a compromise, and I won't point out all the crazy ass hyprocrytical shit with booze and cigs if lay off my weed and drop the medical shit right off it.

I have a unique perspective in that I was physically abused for 5 years as a young child.

When a neighbor or relative disciplined it was proper use of force, etc.
When my abuser at home worked it was just pure evil.
The former had the benefit of teaching while the later caused me to hate and learn self-reliance.

Total Legalization would be nice but then big corporations would take over the marijuana market probably butchering the genetics or just cutting all the little guys out. Sadly enough there is a lot of people in the state of Michigan who rely on marijuana to put food on their table. In a perfect world not filled with corruption total legalization would be key but I feel that by keeping it regulated as medical we can keep out the corporate cats and actually give back to the community. Too many dispensaries, compassion clubs and provision centers are in it for the money as is when they really should be giving it back to the community.

25 Dollar per plant tax stamp would generate a ton of revenue for the failing bankrupt cities and counties accross the country. The feds could cut back on monies they give to the states that tricle down to the cities and counties. The Gov has never figured out an effective way to tax I think this is it.

Beat me up about the price but I would pay it in a heartbeat to be 100 percent free from the feds. Well worth it.
