ColleenMcCool: Yes whoever died from marihuana? Of course no sane person would ever suggest imprisoning tobacco smokers either.

Over a thousand people die each day due to tobacco use! Close to 300 a day die from prescribed pharmaceuticals. The tobacco, alcohol and pharmaceuticals gangs deal drugs causing more death annually than all illicit drugs We tolerate their salesmen!
Alcohol contributes to traffic fatalities, rapes, domestic violence and child abuse even in the womb. Our prisons are full of victims of fetal alcohol syndrome! Many of its victims are not able to comprehend the consequences for their actions.

Thanks Dean and Robert, for all you do for reform!
Marijuana or cannabis is one of the most benign chemicals know to man. Stop hararassing people for making a safer choice. We need to focus on neglected and abused children of more risky, violent, aggressive behavior causing drugs, not the children of parents who made a safer choice.
The really risky drugs are the legal ones.
