Additionally, it should also be treated like cigarettes because of the smoke. So while a person may enjoy a beer in their seat at the stadium, they will not be able to smoke unless in a designated area.

I agree that that's a common sense approach if you want to legalize it.  But I'm not sure I want to legalize it.  I smoked so much in my younger years, I'm surprised I don't have lung cancer.   And I enjoyed it.  But I think it was the biggest most non-productive waste of time in my entire life.  I guess we might as well legalize it because everyone who wants to smoke it is already smoking it.  But there's nothing good about it.

Same. I am 36, wasn't really an avid smoker or consistent with it. More of a social thing, same way with alcohol.

I just don't like it. Dulls the mind. Dulls the senses. I end up regretting it the next day. Because it's usually something you do and it leads to more drinking, overeating or sleeping in longer.

I get it though. If it helps you function? Have at it. My Mom is a life long smoker and stoner. It's helped her function. My Dad quit right after I was born.

Everybody is wired differently.
