theres nothing to be civil about. i have read both sides of the story, and i continue to believe that "cannabis" (better LIP?) does not contribute to the downfall of anyones life. i believe that i can be used by anti-cannabis activists as a crutch for explaining this. i do consider your viewpoints on this, but they do not agree with my beliefs. i feel that if someone has ruined their life and wants to blame it on cannabis then that is fine. i just feel that one should look at their entire life before blaming it on that. i know many many people that smoke everyday like myself and continue to be productive. on the other hand, i know not one person that can actually say their life is in shambles because of cannabis. if someone is looking for an easy explanation, then why not blame it on what the gov't deems illegal? if someone allows this plant to ruin their life, then they need to get their priorities straight before dabbling in a mood enhancing drug.
