Props.
I really believe that as soon as any of the mainstream candidates for president endorses legalization/decriminalization, everyone else in the field is going to wish they had been the first to do it. There's so much enthusiasm in support of legalization and no real demographic is highly motivated against it as far as I can tell. Yeah, some olds are gonna do the whole "These lousy potheads, I don't want my grandchildren seeing that garbage being smoked" etc but that's not likely a main issue for them anyway. Of course it will be another matter for Congress to actually vote on it. Expect delays.

Are you seriously comparing alcohol to the likes of Marijuana and cocaine?
Sigmund Freud defined four parts of a psyche; the id, the ego, the superego and the stratego. The Stratego being the highest form of morality and scientific thinking.

Yeah alcohol is WAY worse than weed and probably worse than cocaine.

Alcohol is made from grain, so unless you have celiac disease, it's not bad for you.
