Explanation:
The recreational use of marijuana has been glamorized over the years by such on-screen duos as Cheech & Chong and Harold & Kumar, but is the drug everything that Hollywood makes it out to be? Then again, are we being hypocritical by allowing alcohol consumption but not cannabis usage? With passionate believers on both sides of the argument, it will be interesting to see what happens when the smoke clears.

I was going to make a comment...
You said exactly what I wanted to, and I am glad I read this before I commented because I couldn't have said it any better. I love when facts are withheld from an argument to support one side, but when the picture is zoomed out, it completely negates all their original points.
Kudos NORML.

Addiction?
I have smoked pot since 1968,and have quit several times because of job requirements and
it was never a physical problem,or even that much mental dependence ,nothing close to quitting cigarettes,which I did,and even quitting sugar had more of a physical reaction.
The addiction you seek to define is the addiction too anything that gives you pleasure,
whether it's stretching out with a good book and a martini,or a 2 hour soak in a hot tub
with Mr. or Ms. June,or all of the above. So until people can find a way to stop people
from finding pleasure in anything,or nothing,we'll be blessed with groups like drug free
america and idiots like david.
