john walters stated that marijuana is an addictive drug. there is nothing in marijuana that has addictive properties. john walters should retract his erroneous statement[s], apologize, and legalize marijuana. why are his false statements tolerated, and not even pointed out?

One of the most common test used to determine the addictive quality of a drug is to medicate lab mice for a determined amount of time and after that, allow them to medicate themselves as thier bodies necessitate.

Of all of the drugs, nicotine, caffeine, cocaine, heroin, and marijuana, guess which drug they did not self medicate?

Marijuana, of course! Apparently, mice do not like to get stoned.

Uh, he can't legalize pot. So don't hold your breath on that one.

But Mr. Walters didn't clarify to whom the drug was addictive. Uncle Sam loves the stuff because it keeps his boys employed.

"Uncle Sam loves the stuff because it keeps his boys employed."

Again with that myth? I might as well bang my head against the wall as explain it again.

Jimmy Jim

It would do you no good to bang you head against the wall because you'd have a concussion and I'd be no wiser.

And despite the fact that I've explained why legalizing mj wouldn't cause massive layoffs, more than once, this myth still keeps coming up.
