I don't know, I always thought the "lazy and stupid" pot smoker was just a negative stereotype and judging from my own personal experiences it depends more on the type of person doing it then the effect of the drug itself.
What really bothers me the most about pot being illegal is that I have yet to hear a truly viable reason why it should be. Most of the myths touted as to why have been debunked over the years (gateway drug, addictive, ect) and the reasons left behind simply aren't good enough in my opinion. Certainly not good enough to justify the amount of time and money wasted on arresting, prosecuting and jailing smokers/growers and It certainly doesn't justify the revenue lost in taxes and sales that could be benefiting our country and helping states that need the revenue. Is their anybody out there that would argue that marijuana is worse for a persons health then cigarettes? Alcohol? Fast food? Some of the legal drugs doctors prescribe everyday? Its time for us as a nation to reevaluate our views on marijuana, we have more important things to worry about then "stoners".
