Missouri is showing the nation how much they like weed.
Better weed than booze.

I would disagree SSG Dennis R.. Both Washington State and Arizona already allow recreational marijuana sales. The study listed below would seem to indicate that not only has the impact of the legalization of marijuana been bad for vehicle crash rates which are up as much as 18%, but that fatalities in some states have increased by as much as 4%.

"According to data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), drivers on marijuana were about 25% more likely to be involved in a crash than drivers without the drug in their system."

I approve of clinical/medical use of MJ and not for recreational use as the most common clinical presentation is poly sub abuse. MJ is a CNS depressant and when combined with alcohol is causes acute organic brain syndrome (OBS).
