POT: OBAMA SAYS WHAT ANY POT USER WOULD SAY TO JUSTIFY HIS SMOKING OF MARIJUANA (UPDATE)

Says marijuana is less dangerous than alcohol

In a strong statement, Harris County (Houston) District Attorney Devon Anderson rebuked Obama for his remarks on pot, accusing him of being reckless. Here is what she said:

"I adamantly disagree with the President. According to a 2012 Drug Use and Health survey, marijuana is the number one drug that citizens over the age of 12 are addicted to or abuse. The negative effects of marijuana use on a developing brain can be permanent, and our President is recklessly giving what amounts to parental permission to our most impressionable citizens to break the law. Marijuana is creating deadly situations right here in Harris County. I welcome the President to come to Houston to review the same capital murder cases I did just last week that were the result of marijuana drug deals. Maybe then he will see that the most effective way to keep our law-abiding citizens safe is to obey all laws that our legislators put on the books at our State Capitol."
