Lizzy Borden killed her parents with an axe. You aren't making the point you think you're making. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I can't figure what point he is trying to make. Trying to justify getting stoned I guess. The President is a fink. |

The current interpretation by Nevada Gaming seems to be that it can not be used on any property licensed for gaming. The gray area is can it legally be used in a casino hotel room? There are Innkeepers laws that some will argue allow it because a hotel room is considered your personal and private area while you are renting it. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Not sure how gray that would be. For example, smoking can be banned in hotel rooms, or pets. The President is a fink. |

Fair point: if you do it too much, it can be a time-consuming distraction. But there are always exceptions. Francis Crick, Steve Jobs, Stephen Jay Gould, Carl Sagan, Richard Branson, Arnold Schwarzenneger, and Sergey Brin are known for being industrious & hard-working. All of them are (or were) stoners. How many Olympic gold medals does Michael Phelps need to win to prove he's hard-working and ambitious? |

No, it changes your brain chemistry. “Long-term regular marijuana use seems to have a [strong] effect on brain chemistry,” says Michael Bloomfield, Ph.D., lead author of the study. “After a period of time, your brain cells aren’t able to make as much tyrosine hydroxylase, an important enzyme that’s a key component in making dopamine. We know that dopamine affects how the brain controls motivation and addictions; therefore our study provides a scientific explanation as to the reason that cannabis users seem to become less motivated.” Pot kills motivation and ambition in people, but they seldom see it that way. That's the insidious side of dope. http://www.mensfitness.com/nutrition/what-to-eat/unkind-buds-why-pot-turns-you-slacker If you take a risk, you may lose.

It's not quite that simple as a very large part of legal marijuana is via consumables not just smoking. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Don't worry, you can't tell the difference, only those of us forced to deal with you notice there's something wrong. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
