An update during 4/20

Let me start out with this: What is 4/20? If I am being completely honest here, I did not know, or have any clue as to what 420 meant. Thanks to some good friends of mine, more of me has been introduced to this North American culture of what is today April 20 and what it stands for the many people here who advocate towards whats makes this day 'special'. So let me indulge you, those of you who are not aware of what 420 signifies: it is a day where shit loads of people smoke marijuana or 'weed' on April 20 and preferably on 4:20 (I'm not entirely sure whether it's in AM or PM).


So, without any prolonging to this post - my view.

My view is simple, and have stated it quite a few times to some of you. To me, marijuana is illegal. It has been, and not for some time but it still is here and in the USA. Society, for whatever historic reason has looked down upon the use of the drug that gives you that "high" on life feeling. To me, my opinion - surprisingly is indifferent. While I have grown distant towards the use of this drug - I appreciate the arguments that are framed to advocate the decriminalizing use of non-medical marijuana. So, you might be confused here.

Tell me what do you think?
