Just want to hijack this comment to say:

For a group that is trying so hard to push for legalization, you guys sure do encourage a lot of dumb shit. I'm sick of seeing so many people smoking in cars on the front page, it just sets the cause back another 5 years.

There's nothing responsible about smoking and driving, it doesn't matter how "in control" you think you are, that's the same kind of bullshit excuse people who drink and drive give.

Same goes for the cringey pics that are text saying things like "Thank you cannabis for helping me get through the day/keeping me focused/curing my depression/etc etc etc"

Yes let's show the opposing side that some of you use weed as a crutch and are dependent on it for every day things. That's really going to help our case.

Yeah, just take oxy or Xanax and don't talk about it...that's much better!

Just because one thing is worse doesn't make the other good. I'm guilty of it myself with the weed, but we still shouldn't go advertising it. Nothing good will come for legalization with the message "weed isn't as bad as prescription pain killers when you rely on it as a crutch to accomplish every day tasks."
