POT PROHIBITION ISN'T WORKING

Decriminalize! It's obvious that prohibition isn't working. They want 
to call it a gateway drug but spoiler alert, the only gateway i 
experienced came from the people I had to see to buy pot. Hey dude, 
check this out: Try a dime's-worth, see what you think. When I 
started growing my own, my use of other drugs vanished. As far as 
violence, it is just like booze in that the violent people are that 
way without being high. I never became violent on pot. I was never an 
addict and I used it heavily for years only after my day was my own. 
When I quit, I had no withdrawal symptoms other than what to do with 
my library and equipment. Oh, and I destroyed lots of Polaroids of 
harvesting in the living room. I wish I had kept the issue of High 
Times that had a picture of my prize bud. What a rush!
