I am all for pot being used to treat people with MS and such, if it helps relieve any of their pain.
In high school, many years ago, I smoked pot quite a bit with my best friend. It just relaxed me, and made me hungry. I never did get addicted to it, and I have not touched the stuff in years!!!! But I don't think it is as bad as other drugs....not even in the same catagory.
The problem with pot these days...and the reason why I would be terrified to have my step-children even try it, although I did, is that back when I smoked it, it was the mid 80's, and people weren't adding stuff to it like they do now....now if someone buys pot, you never know what else has been mixed with it, and I would never touch it now. I suppose it depends on where you get it.
Anyway, I don't feel like I was a terrible person for having tried it, and it didn't lead to other drugs, and I don't do it anymore, but I have a couple friends who do, and I don't think any less of them.
