I read your reply to the use of marijuana and how more people's lives are ruined by painkillers and alcohol than by marijuana. Marijuana is a drug just like painkillers and alcohol. The lives that are ruined by these things are not because of the "things" themselves, it is because some people who used them are addicts. They have addictive personalities. Addiction is a disease, just like cancer, or diabetes. It is very misunderstood disease. People that do not have an addictive personality do not usually have problems with drugs and alcohol. It is those who do have an addictive personality that lose control and drugs and alcohol.
Just letting everyone know.
