re: Former Tiger Dwayne Bowe arrested

Why is weed illegal and not alcohol? Why is weed illegal and not cigarettes, cigars, chewing tobacco? Why have they recently fully legalized absinthe, but only a few states "legalized" weed?

I've never heard of one person dying as the direct result of smoking too much weed. But drinking, all the time, cigarettes, you betcha. With prescription drugs, you have to wait in line to die. This world's prioties are so messed up that they'll run you in for this little shite, but can't find a rapist or murderer. Cold cases miles long, but they can book ya for a fatty. I can understand law is law, but why hasn't this shite been changed in the 90+ years it's been around (law for making weed illegal weed)?
