I mean, seriously! Get with the times. Considering the positives vastly outweigh the negatives, it should be a no-brainer on where to stand regarding our failed drug policies, especially marijuana.
Edit for clarity: I was referring to the positives vs negatives of marijuana itself.
Another edit: There's a lot of great discussion and points made and I appreciate all the input so far! I do want to say that I am well aware of the downsides of smoking weed. It wasn't my intention to completely dismiss the the negatives nor overstate the positives. That said, I'm totally on board with fully legalizing it and giving it at least the same treatment as alcohol, as well as the decriminalization of other drugs. Fuck the war on drugs.
Joe Biden has literally NO policies that the youth on the left believe to be better than the other candidates yet MSM keeps harping on him like he is the next big progressive "Which he is NOT."
It should worry anyone that is even an old school Dem that Fox News and the right LOVE HIM and tout him as "The only real threat to Trump." He is not a threat. He is a right leaning centrist if not a flat out conservative in his policy decisions throughout his career. No wonder the right wants him in so badly.
