"It all boils down to personal choice. I agree that weed may have some negative effects just like alcohol and tobacco do, but I also believe it can be used safely and smartly. Everything in life has some risks and negative effects. It's all about assessing the risk and making a choice -- a choice I should be able to make and not have Uncle Sam make for me. I really believe in legalized adult cannabis use, and I will do just about anything to support other people or organizations who share my same views."

Nate says that cannabis makes him happy, reduces stress, and makes him more friendly and talkative (he's anti-social sometimes). He also can get more philosophical and into music. Sometimes it makes him feel lazy, so he will get everything done that he needs to before he smokes.
