is better than or the same as half the nation....25 states to be exact. I suspect those stats will trend downward and Washington will join the orange states sooner rather than later now that it's officially legal. BTW, numerous studies have shown marijuana to be beneficial in the treatment of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, suicidal ideation, alcoholism, chronic pain, insomnia, PMS, and menopause.

citicens of those red states (the ones that want to secede from the union) are some of the most under-educated and poor people in this country.
I'd like to know why they keep voting Republicans, who are CLEARLY against their best interests.
As far as I am concerned, if they're dumb enough to want to secede (which will raise local and state taxes a LOT, since they won't be getting any support from that "terrible" United States), then go ahead and secede, BUT don't come running back with your tails between your legs, expecting financial help from the sane 98% of Americans. The election results made that crystal clear.

... Well, Well. The Boston Brothers Did NOT Have A License Apr 22, 2013 to own guns. This kinda blows the argument that stricter gun control will curb murder and mayhem. The younger one wasn't old enough to own or buy a gun. The older brother never applied. He probably wouldn't have been able to lawfully own a gun anyway because of his previous charge in 2009.
They didn't have assault weapons, either, so that blows another argument. Get mad all you gun control posters want, but facts are facts and it's something I've been trying ...
