27. Wow.
I absolutely disagree with everything you've said. The only way to compare cannabis to alcohol is to say that one ruins millions of people's lives and it's legal and the other is not legal. It also feels way better to be stoned than drunk, I've never thrown up from smoking too much pot, I just go to sleep.

Compare alcohol deaths to pot deaths, oh wait you can't because there has never been one reported incident of someone dying of a pot overdose.

It is an issue when thousands of people sit unjustly in prisons across America for the possession of something that is harmless. As a recreational substance it's the most harmless we have.

As far as the miracles I see everyday in pain and symptom management? I've never seen anything like it. I have a friend with MS who walks because of cannabis.

Don't even get me started on hemp and how it can save the world.

You should get some information and rethink your stand on this, I'm not trying to be snarky, really. The only harm that has ever come from cannabis is the harm that comes from it being illegal. You don't realize it I'm sure, but you're really coming off as a cannabis bigot.
