      I know I’m just speaking for myslef, but I’m 100% on board for full legalization, but have 0 interest in the stuff myself. I’m actually partly convinced that the really vocal anti-marijuana folks use/ have used it themselves but have some weird mental idea about it being legal. See also: anti-sex work politicians getting caught with prostitutes, anti-adultery christians getting caught cheating on their spouses, anti-groomer pastors getting caught… well, you know.
