Re: Washington, D.C., Approves Medical Use of Marijuana

I don't buy the whole gateway argument and I've never seen any meaningful research to support such a claim. THC is a drug that's practically as benign as caffeine, yet you don't see people worrying that drinking coffee is going to lead to someone snorting coke.

I do believe we'll see it legalized in our lifetime, support for it is higher than ever (lol) hopefully California will set the standard this fall and get this thing rolling (ha-ha).

Legalize it, tax the hell out of it, and let's start using our legal system and resources on more important things.

This.

Will it happen in our lifetime? I would say possible, not likely. I would say once the "old guard" of the war on drugs era politicians lose office over the next 20 years, mostly due to age, and then maybe.
