The only thing the police seem to care about right now is driving high. That makes sense to me. Impaired is impaired.

Considering that marijuana is a plant, I find it quite absurd that it was ever illegal. That the government can step in and regulate nature blows my mind. I suppose that's another rant for another day.

Hippie mentality for the win.
I agree about pot, but have mixed emotions about not regulating things just because they are plants. A few years back, I got the mistaken impression that salvia was a mild high that some former pot heads enjoyed from time to time since it was legal then. I tried it and it scared the crap out of me. It's a full blown hallucinogen and disturbing experiences are not at all uncommon. That's what happened to me.

Pot is still pretty heavily policed in my state. The closest thing to leniency is a first offender program with a significant fine and lots of community service and a requirement to attend some rehabilitation/education sessions. Air Canabi-, I mean Canada, just announced they are going to start using a larger plane for the direct flight to Toronto in January and add a new direct flight to Montreal in June. Probably has nothing to do with legalization...
