Irritated that pot decriminalization/legalization didn't pass in Oregon. Other than that, I'm a pretty happy camper!
It still passed in Colorado/Washington, which is a start. Once they start taxing it and duke it out with the feds, and let loose all the people in jail for Nonviolent pot charges, if they do that, and suddenly see hey those states are saving tons of taxpayer dollars, not imprisoning potheads etc, and getting revenue from the taxes on it, More states will be more willing to legalize it.
Funny part is I agree with legalizing and taxing it, I havent messed with the stuff since I was l like 19, It makes me sick and I dislike the taste, but I have no issues with anyone that does it, I mean it seems to calm many of them down. While Alcohol I can't stand, I hate it, I dislike drunk people very much, is completely legal. I mean I still think you should get a DUI under both but booze IMHO is worse, I've seen way more drunken brawls and accidents, and just plain human stupidity from intoxication then I have ever seen from high people, which isn't to say there might not be people like that or it might be a side effect, but whens the last time you saw someone get into a fist fight while high, and I'm not talking about the scuffle to be the first person to grab the cheetos.
