Not that lame fetus argument, again.
If those wanting an abortion believe so strongly in it, let them use coat hangers.
I was simply pointing out that the same argument can be made for both, its a good exercise in seeing things from another viewpoint.
They're DEMOCRATS.....

U.S. marijuana industry’s economic impact to approach $70B by 2021
The U.S. cannabis industry is poised to inject nearly $70 billion on an annual basis into the American economy by 2021, an eye-popping figure that underscores the broader economic impact for towns and municipalities that accept legal marijuana businesses into their communities.
Estimates published in the newly released Marijuana Business Factbook 2017 show the total economic impact of legal marijuana sales rising from $16 billion-$18 billion in 2016 to $48 billion-$68 billion by 2021 – a 241% increase.
By comparison, the $68 billion figure is similar to the 2016 gross domestic products of the Dominican Republic ($72 billion) and Kenya ($67 billion), according to International Monetary Fund data.
The projections are another example of marijuana’s rapid transformation from an industry dominated by black-market players into a legitimate and considerable economic force, quickly becoming a major job generator and bringing new business opportunities that produce significant ripple effects across the country.

That's what I said. It affects more than just the user.
Sad how you admit something can be harmful to children, families, and society yet believe there's no problem using it.
Maybe you support it because it will give you another ambulance to chase. Hopefully, the one in the ambulance will be you the next time one of those potheads is smoked up and drives a car.
If you knew shit about Cape Cod you would know that it is conservative country.
You might also consider that despite being 86% democratic, we routinely elect and re-elect GOP governors.
Clearly Dems don't trust Dems to not fuck things up (see Deval Patrick).
A healthy two party system requires two parties.
I haven’t ever met one of those people. I must hang with responsible weed smokers. People I know like that usually have alcohol or other drug addictions. I have never seen a purple weed smoking person as you describe. I wonder how many of them there are .

I've never heard of a weed 'addict' .. but do you believe those who smoke weed would be more harmful to their families than an alcoholic?
I have always thought so, balance works, if people will compromise.
He is also lying about my voting.
Corporatist Patrick was horrible for the very poor in Mass.
Romney's greatest faling was not running for re-election.
Weld was a true champion of the poor in Mass...may Trent Lott burn in Hell.
Dukakis was a disaster...
Applause.
WTF is a weed addict?
If you can't put aside $50 a week to be stoned everyday then yeah, I guess so.
America is a right leaning nation because racist white men set the standards we live by.
You want me to state the dems are just as racist as the republicans when they are not.
The dems never had control enough to pass leglislation to stop the war on drugs no matter how much your try to spin it.
Americans are waking up to what you racist have been doing to this country and we aren't taking it anymore.
dems who side with the right will be thrown out of office.

... which is far different than being an addict.
