While i can honestly see both sides of the story, I question a few things

TimE, you say that the people you know that smoke pot are lazy, don't have motivation, and don't get things done? Have you ever wondered if maybe they were just worthless people to start with? I know a lot of people who don't smoke pot that fit your criteria. And before you start your mouth, know that I'm not a coughhippiecough, a pothead, a stoner, or a geezer that smoked the crap back in the 70's....I've known a lot of people who smoked the stuff, but it was never for me...Some who smoked it showed the traits you described, but they showed those same traits when they were sober....They were lazy....i've also known some who functioned fully in their everyday life, and weren't lazy, got things accomplished, and had motivation high or sober

Have you ever wondered if marijuana is a problem simply because it's taboo....In this crappy world we live in, some people do things just because they're illegal

Again, I'm not saying I'm for legalizing the stuff, just think you're putting a serious stereotype where it doesn't belong....Not all people who drink are violent or go on major crime sprees...If you want my opinion, the biggest problem we're fighting now is COMPLETELY LEGAL prescription pain pills...

And just for the record, if I'm going to be involved in a car accident with an impaired driver, I'd much rather get hit by a pothead going 35 than a drunk doing 70
