I agree with Elana. To be honest I think alcohol is much worse-people can drink to black-out state. Pot doesn't do that. I think that weed is in a somewhat different catagory than 'hard' drugs-but that it still can cause definate problems for some people.
I think medical marijuana is fine and I don't care if people smoke recreationally or whatever.
I've seen people who smoke all the time and get real crabby and definately go through withdrawl when they are out of it. That would describe every ex-boyfriend of mine. Ugh!
I agree about alcohol being MUCH worse.
Also, I do believe that if smoked frequently enough that marijuana can become physically addictive to a degree. I've never experienced any kind of addiction to it myself but had a friend who smoked multiple times/day and decided to quit...it took him about 2 weeks to be able to sleep properly after he stopped smoking....so there's definitely something there.
That said, if you drink enough coffee you'll get withdrawls from that too....so....
