I am fine with the legalizing weed stance and see the benefits with tax and regulation.
The only hesitation I'd have is any person I knew growing up that ended up with a harsher drug problem like crystal meth, heroin etc started off as a pot head. Not saying that this is the norm but I believe there is some truth to weed leading to harsher drugs.
That's not a weed problem its a drug problem. Just because weed is the lowest on the scale and easiest to obtain, people tend to blame it. But a person with a problem would seek it out whether they try weed, or ecstasy, or MDMA or whatever the case may be.

Weed creates drug addicts = Pop creates alcoholics IMO.
