Marijuana is a natural herb that is prescribed in over 200 countries as treatment of serious ailments. The current law is an archaic law that is rooted in some reprehensible undertones. It is not in anyway a gateway drug. It has so many healing qualities.

As Mizzou learned the hard way, campus protests can be very bad for the institution of higher learning. Police and even the National Guard should be used to restore order and make it safe for minorities (e.g., Jewish students) to attend class. The left has taken over higher ed, you see results. FJB

Harry, your reply to me is true, and accurate, but a peaceful protest is legal.

No, not if they are peaceful, otherwise the answer is yes.

When was the last time you saw a peaceful leftist protest? "We need some muscle over here" ring any bells?

It's not just sleeping, its defecating, starting forest fires, setting buildings on fire, littering, stealing shopping carts, drug use, crime, untreated mental illness. All of these things are bad for society, especially the so called homeless, and must end. Liberals are not helping situation. FJB

That would require a convention of states. Good luck with that.

Frank Jung

Does that include sitting on a bench and dozing off?

Belinda Kitchen

Nope, but it would be a help if rent would be affordable and people could actually get jobs instead of discrimination against them . And it would definitely help against crime and stuff.
