Pat Robertson seems to be in favour of decriminalizing marijuana.

I believe the word you're looking for is "bong," as in: "Pass the bong my dear..." |

No thanks, I'm one of those rare individuals who gets raging hangovers from pot. Nausea, cold sweats, bazooka barfing, not a pleasant experience.

I read about that and I must ask: what are his motives? Robertson has earned a reputation for unbridled greed and that makes me wonder if he's not in collusion with a major pot farmer. But, just this once, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. He said some good words.
I get Rat's symptoms from legal Oxycodone, available in bulk and at no cost from my friendly VA, and you can add constipation and the risk of addiction to the list. In my opinion, THC is the best pain killer out there for taking on a regular basis.

On a related matter: Missoula District Court: Jury pool in marijuana case stages ‘mutiny’ GWEN FLORIO of the Missoulian The Billings Gazette | Posted: Sunday, December 19, 2010 5:20 pm |
A funny thing happened on the way to a trial in Missoula County District Court last week.
Jurors – well, potential jurors – staged a revolt.
They took the law into their own hands, as it were, and made it clear they weren’t about to convict anybody for having a couple of buds of marijuana. Never mind that the defendant in question also faced a felony charge of criminal distribution of dangerous drugs.
The tiny amount of marijuana police found while searching Touray Cornell’s home on April 23 became a huge issue for some members of the jury panel.
No, they said, one after the other. No way would they convict somebody for having a 16th of an ounce.
In fact, one juror wondered why the county was wasting time and money prosecuting the case at all, said a flummoxed Deputy Missoula County Attorney Andrew Paul.
District Judge Dusty Deschamps took a quick poll as to who might agree. Of the 27 potential jurors before him, maybe five raised their hands. A couple of others had already been excused because of their philosophical objections.
“I thought, ‘Geez, I don’t know if we can seat a jury,’ ” said Deschamps, who called a recess.
