    With no prior knowledge of the child, I 100 percent give him pot over peanut butter, which could definitely kill him.

    Only dangerous to those who claim an allergy. And Americans only have themselves to blame on that. Decades ago there were never that many kids with an allergy to peanuts.

    So we can stop with the arbitrary exception regarding peanut butter and allergies. Let's use turkey....or ham....or grilled cheese. You all get the point.

    Weed, like whiskey, is not for kids. But there is nothing wrong with it for adults.

    I don't like weed, I wish I did, as I think it would be better for me than alcohol and help me with anxiety without making me fat.

    Why specifically?

    Unless it's an adult with an already challenging brain chemistry. The thought of a veteran with PTSD and a regular drinking situation, doesn't inspire confidence. It shouldn't necessarily with pot, either.

    Whatever floats your boat cupcake. I have my own reasons for not partaking but I don't care if others do and as often as they like.

    Because it's fun. Because it helps people relax. Because poeple enjoy it. The same reason I drink Guinness and Jameson.

    Don't you ever feel a bit stressed? Maybe enjoy a whiskey on the rocks and sportscenter? You don't enjoy that, find it calming?

    So naturally the Marijuana Simpsons episode is on FXX and Homer asks the Doc who is trying to prescribe him pot, isn't weed illegal? Doc says, Only for those who enjoy it. Lol

    There was an episode of Two and a Half Men where Charlie asked the pharmacist about medical pot so he Skyped to some doctor in India who wrote a prescription
