I used to be indifference with weed and didn't have any opinion about prop 19.

My opinion changed after what happened to my coworker though. His wife died in a car accident and his 9 month old baby was seriously injured because a pothead from Santa Cruz fell asleep and hit them head on last month. It was heartbreaking and I think many ppl really downplay the side effect of smoking weed.

I realized that alcohol is the same thing. I guess for me, I don't think I respect ppl who are addicted to alcohol or weed (except for medical marijuana). Sure, I drink occasionally, but it's never about addiction or losing control, I can go months or years without alcohol if I want to and I don't rely on it to cheer myself up.
