1. The anti folks are still rolling out the lies.

Here in Ohio, where we've got a legalization issue on the ballot, I drove past a billboard that listed 'Facts' about marijuana, including things like it is 'addictive'. Last I checked, 'addiction' had a real, physiological meaning, and just didn't mean 'some folks like it, and will use it a lot.'

Abuse grows with use. Of anything. American abuse of easily available cheap foodstuffs has grown tremendously too. But I'd rather have more folks smoking marijuana than using tobacco or binge drinking.
