What really bothers me is that kids KNOW mj isn't the "Evil" drug it is 
supposed to be and they tend to downplay gov't information relayed to them on 
other legal and illegal drugs.
Jimson weed (member of the nightshade family), excessive alcohol consumption, 
tobacco will be used by kids becasue it is legal or easy to get.
Even the sucking of the certain species of hallucinogenic frogs are utilized 
by kids to get high.
It's a shame since mj has been proven to be virtually harmless while other 
drugs are allowed to florish.
But the CA and AZ laws will start to change things even as Clinton and the 
Washington spin doctors launch an all out attack. I am waiting to hear of 
threats to CA and AZ (as per the kids on drugs and no license) as Clinton 
seeks to maintain his hold on these states.
