you must have family who is drug dealers, unless you're one yourself, either that or you use drugs.

I think its sad and ridiculous. I wish they would legalize it and control it so we wouldn't waste our tax money on eradicating a silly plant. And besides its not marijuana, poppy, or coca its the people who ALTER IT, MISUSE IT, and ABUSE IT, just like tobacco and alcohol, so don't blame the plant. And I wish people would open their mind to see the THOUSANDS of ways cannabis by itself can BENEFIT us.

Good I wish all the drug dealers would get caught drugs ruin people lives and have so many effects that are not even realized it ruins the person who is doing them their families and friends I wish all of them would get busted
