Yeah. It certainly isn't good for you, but it does have its medical benefits. But the people who claim it's some kind of "miracle cure" for all ailments are fucking retarded. I'm exadurating of course, but there are people who think it can treat virtually anything.
Like anything of the sort, it should be used with moderation. That said I would very much like to see it legalized in a way similar to alcohol. Just last night, my friend was in town from college (about four hours away) and we really wanted to get together and toke for the first time in a while, because it's an enjoyable social occasion. But of course, we couldn't find anyone to sell because all the dealers have been dry due to the cops busting left and right.
Wish there was a liquor store for pot. Some day,
maybe.
Also I never really intended for this to be a prohibition thread, but I guess the answer for the original question is a bit obvious, innit.
