Great multi-article snapshot on the state of marijuana in America today. Very honest and very very good for the movement. Seeing stuff like this in a conservative mag like Time gives me hope for America.
Anyways, lots of good stuff here, check it out...

look, Darin. drugs are here to stay, regardless of their legality. The L.A.W. does not make the SLIGHTEST dent in drug use! The fact that they are illegal has NO EFFECT whatsoever. I can score pretty much anything I want, regardless
so the legalization thing..it has only to do with the fact that the govt is legislating morality, and that is unacceptable
making things legal would NOT have caused your doper friends to be worse dopers, nor would it cause non-dopers to become!
it is frustrating to talk to you about this because you really do seem to think that "illegality" is a genuine form of deterrrnce.
Im sorry but this is not the case, except in maybe the smallest numbers!
the drugs are already there. changing the laws would not make them appear. what it would do is put some bad people out of business, and get some GOOD people out of TROUBLE!
oh..and those fucking propaganda commercials, 99D..."drug money supports bad things"
FUCKING TAX MONEY SUPPORTS BAD THINGS

I wouldn't be who I am or doing the music I do if it weren't for pot and hallucinogenics. Hell, I'd still be writing newage soundtrack music (nothing wrong with that, but it's hard to get yer friends excited about your latest mix if you know what I mean).
I sure hope I don't smoke as much as I do for the rest of my life, but I'm sure if someone hands me a spliff when I'm 80, I'll be takin' it. I'm young, and I'm enjoying every experience, high or not (though usually high), and it's doing great things for me.
There are too many negative stereotypes of stoners. Like any generalization, those things are probably true to some degree, but there are MANY successful and brilliantly creative stoners out there. I mean the list for the arts alone would fill a set of encyclopedias. For some people, pot is a really wonderful stimulant, not an apathy-inducing toxicant. For others, it just doesn't work with their life or personality. People need to choose the path that fits them the best, you know?
Man, I was a dickhead before I started smoking, and now that I smoke (not trying to be an egofreak here) everyone likes me as far as I can tell. People have told me how much nicer I became when I started smoking. It always makes me laugh.
