In reply to the discussion: CNN's Sanjay Gupta: We've been misled about cannabis [View all]90-percent
(6,829 posts)I think this is a consideration in the debate, however;
The serious emotional effects of going to jail and having your life ruined by our American Criminal Justice System is the most horrible risk to marijuana use by far.
The state had to wreck your life to save it, you wretched pot smoker you!

PS - it was very honorable of Dr. Gupta to publicly admit he was wrong. Its too bad more public figures don't do it. Like it would be nice for Obama and Holder to admit they are wrong about busting state legal pot dispensaries. Especially when they are simple dead wrong, from the vantage of being on the wrong side of history, given the obvious trend for the public to be more accepting of pots benefits and the absurdity of pot prohibition. Historically, most prohibitions eventual are proven to be stupid and unfair, don't they?
