Do you know this or is it something you pulled out of your hat?
I'd say it's more like 8 out of 10...I like my hat better.

But I also know that no matter how much someone says marijuana is not addictive, it is. Maybe not the same way nicotine does it for cigarette smokers but, mentally, I have seen people who would just not quit. If even their mothers requested it on their death beds. Though, for those few people who can quit, I respect for their willpower. The ability to say no and mean it. Not taking a puff or a swig here and there. I'm sorry if you guys took that comment a bit too personally but I wasn't trying to invoke a stereotype. I just know how people operate and lie through their teeth. Willpower is a trait that's becoming rarer everyday.

But I also know that no matter how much someone says marijuana is addictive, it is not. I don't buy your argument that it's addictive, not at all. Some people may like it alot and might get pissed off if they run out, but no one I know can't do without.

Maybe the people you saw that "would just not quit" didn't want to quit. What's wrong with a dying person wanting to smoke a bit of pot? My 87 year old Grandmother wanted a couple of sips of brandy during her last days. Should we have said no you shouldn't drink this, it's not good for you?
