Assessing the extent of what is see as negligence the way to gather information depends greatly on honesty, truth, and in the way a reply to questions is presented. I concede fully you have taken control of the debate by the limited answers you provide. So, this means more question must be asked as the lack of answers to questions still provides us with information to build a search on.
As for gambling it is an example of addiction as united state, there is a consistent lack of addressing united state in debate, in many of the debate people take part in. As I do not disagree with basic principles that you being to the date, In fact they help set the idea of negligence in Ex post facto, as we get to see the change taking place after the facts are presented as accusation of written law.

As a substance abuse in basic principle this means the substance is used incorrectly or in a dangerous way. Dirt is often associated with substance abuse in legal precedent and children it is described as hygiene with infants, a form of organic contamination of pollutant. Common defense to the general welfare.
(Pure John opinion, as well) Number of children Xfound reported who have been killed due to smothering with marijuana so far. Buried? 0 reported
More of your internet preaching John,
I am looking for information how many babies are smothered a year under the weight of marijuana, a fallen bail or trash bag full ? How many babies crawl into a five-gallon bucket and drowned in marijuana?There are a number of deaths that take place as a supervisor of children under the influence of THC, none under drowning directly in marijuana. Can a person get high by touching marijuana? Is the chemical pollutant THC a threat by contact like poison ivy?
All information collected so far is along the line of second hand breathing of marijuana smoke supporting air pollution and not owning of marijuana as a crime.
The understanding is ;who would have this vital common defense such as how much marijuana a person can touch before they are high?
When a substance is burned and creates a threat in basic principle this is air pollution can you provide any links which state this is not true?

Why no response for the below?
Maybe you can't come up with a real life, or world counter argument, for the below is a probable truth?
From Parents Opposed to Pot:
"STONED BABIES AND UNDERACHIEVING ADULTS
By Dr. Drew Edwards
Physicians and medical professionals routinely warn women not to use marijuana while they are pregnant or nursing. Why? The best available scientific evidence has established that exposure to marijuana’s psychoactive constituent, THC, in utero causes neuroadaptive changes in their baby’s brain, especially in the regions where their cognitive capacity and emotional regulation is formed. As a result, the life trajectories for prenatally exposed children may be permanently altered. These facts, like so many others germane to marijuana’s toxic effects have been well established in the scientific literature for years—and largely ignored. But why?
Blatant ignorance, apathy, greed or all of the above, coalesced and organized by pro cannabis politicians, financiers and a large, grass roots constituency of chronically addicted users who support full legalization of marijuana. As a result, more women than ever are smoking marijuana both during and after their pregnancy. Specifically, research informs that two-thirds of pregnant women now believe that smoking marijuana during pregnancy presents “no risk at all”, or only a “slight risk” to their baby–meaning they are going to continue getting high during their pregnancy and after.
NAS Report, other recent research
Recently, a shocking revelation was by reported by researchers from The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. While researching the risk factors associated with marijuana during pregnancy, they discovered numerous instances in which non-medical personnel (uneducated sales clerks) at state approved marijuana dispensaries throughout California were recommending that pregnant women smoke marijuana for morning sickness. The fact is, smoking marijuana is an effective antimimetic, as it is for terminal cancer patients on chemo. But is it safe?
Recent research published by The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists concluded that marijuana use (twice per week) increases the risk of low birth weight, citing previous studies that revealed that babies exposed in utero had “statistically significantly smaller head circumferences (smaller brain) shorter stature and lower birth weights” compared to babies not exposed. Not surprising, the findings were more pronounced among women who used marijuana during the first and second trimesters. In addition, a well powered study (in press) from Colorado Children’s Hospital, describes how THC is commonly being fed to newborn babies via their mother’s breastmilk, causing intoxication to the infant…yes, stoned babies.
How is the brain affected?
The human brain does not fully develop until the mid to late 20’s. The female brain develops a few years sooner than the male brain. Moreover, the brain develops from the back (cerebellum) to the front (frontal cortex). This is developmentally significant, as the frontal cortex is what makes us uniquely human. It is where conceptual and abstract learning develop, as well as our capacity for empathy, and motivation to sustain focus, set goals and work hard to achieve them. Our frontal brain is where we develop morality, learn fairness, desire to help others, to delay gratification and inhibit primitive hedonic impulses from the midbrain. Marijuana use retards the development of the frontal cortex and degrades the neuro-circuitry that innervates this region.
In a paper published (2015) by researchers at Columbia University Medical Center and the New York State Psychiatric Institute, investigators used a novel and highly specific carbon radio-tracer, which binds preferentially to dopamine 3 (D3) receptors in the brain. Using sophisticated imaging technology, these studies revealed that regular cannabis use is associated with lower dopamine release in the associative striatum and the sensory motor striatumwhich mediate reward salience, motivation and cognition. Dopamine is the neurotransmitter that causes reward when human and mammals engage in pro-survival behavior. All drugs of abuse usurp this most primitive survival drive by releasing dopamine, thus fooling the brain and rewarding the user as if they had accomplished something significant. Lead investigator, Dr. Anissa Abi-Dargham, concluded. “Cannabis shares a negative impact on dopaminergic transmission with other drugs, only with a different regional profile”
Why is this important?
There are currently 24 million marijuana users in the US. Today, approximately 7,000 children or teens will smoke marijuana for the first time. And 7,000 tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day…. Yet, the acute and chronic effects of the 120 plus cannabinoids and other constituents present in marijuana are mostly unknown.
When a person smokes marijuana- THC, the known psychoactive cannabinoid is pumped from the lungs, into the heart, reaching the brain within minutes. The body absorbs THC more slowly when it is eaten, delaying the onset of action for at least an hour and prolonging the duration of the effect. Users who are naive to the slower onset of edibles may consume 2 or 3 times the initial dose, erroneously believing that the initial dose was insufficient to get them high.
This is common cause of visits to the local hospital’s emergency department. Moreover, competition for market share of this multibillion- dollar business has driven up the potency of the marijuana products, with little regard for safety. In order to increase the percentage of THC in retail products, the manufacturers make room by eliminating most of the cannabidiol (CBD) which has been shown to have positive, neuro-protective effects. In short, THC degrades neuronal connections and circuitry while CBD is protective.
Legalization has produced intense market competition, which, in turn, has produced dangerously potent products. Since legalization in Colorado, admission to poison control centers and pediatric emergency departments have experienced a 300-to-400 percent increase due to marijuana toxicity and overdose. In addition, dozens of babies and toddlers have died because their parent or caregiver was so stoned that they left a small child unattended in a bathtub, or near a pool, or strapped in an overheating car and was literally baked alive because the adult just “lost track of time.”
Altered life trajectory
Numerous prospective and longitudinal studies reveal that teens who smoke marijuana grossly under achieve in life. One such longitudinal study (10 years) showed that teens who used marijuana at least twice per week are 5 times more likely to drop out of high school, 3 times more likely to be incarcerated or unemployed, earn significantly less money as adults, and have multiple failed significant relationships. Additionally, teens who smoke marijuana are 2.6 times more likely to become addicted to opioids.
Clearly the consequences of marijuana use, via legalization, has fallen most heavily on the very least of us, e.g., the unborn, infants, small children, and the poor, while making many politicians wealthy and elitist billionaires even more wealthy.
Stoned babies, brain damaged and psychotic teens, underachievement, incarceration, unemployment, depression, suicidality, infant death by neglect…Is it worth it?
Apparently so, as too many ignorant, apathetic users and greedy and powerful politicians and financiers are willing to trade the lives and the future of millions of children, so that marijuana users have the legal right to get stoned and impaired whenever they want, and without consequence. This must change, less we become a nation of underachieving, sick and unproductive people. "

This is not the whole truth. In order for this number to be this low legislation of chemical pollutants such as refined poppies would had needed to be in effect. The odds are realistically as low as 50-50 and as high as 95 - 5 of an opioid addiction taking place when marijuana is not monitored in a united state constitutional reprteatation, that in consistency to its religious freedom by public use. This the common defense to the general welfare aloud by the states union made within the Union of Constitutional legislation. It, marijuana does meet a quality separating it form other narcotic chemical's as a public pollutant for it is a raw material grown and used as grown.

Do those state's Marijuana Law's, have any of the below stated, in their published laws, that can support your individual statement?
"It, marijuana does meet a quality separating it form other narcotic chemical's as a public pollutant for it is a raw material grown and used as grown."
Again, educate the public, on your reiterated statement, as being a part of those published Marijuana Laws?
Where it explicitly details, about viewing recreational marijuana, as a public pollutant?

It is a united State that is shared in all pollution so before going over the Ex post fact law's it is best we look at the negligence taking place in public opinion fueling the problem. also the issue with law is in all states in a constitutional union, not just those who are allowing the use of marijuana it does include those who restrict such use. What I am looking for is the common defense as to why a pollution issue is not regarded as a pollution issue and find none in your debate. The grievance on marijuana as a substance appears to be unsubstantiated
by the position of legislated law, and the common defense to illegal law, we are to follow orders as a dictatorship without military authority to relieve a person who demonstrates a lack of understanding of their command as it relates to negligence against preservation of united state Constitution. The support on both sides of legislation is to be able to continual criminal protocol with changing fact of basic principle after criminal accusation are investigated by law.

Here's the truth, you couldn't find any supportive evidence that the those states, Marijuana Laws, have published within their own words, right?
Or in other words:

In the USA it is a constitutional right. A right that should be protected with rigor.
Yes, it is a Constitutional right, it is also an American Amendment right. How the United State Constitutional right is preserved and how the American first Amendment right are preserved is not the same process, they are not part of the same state of union made on speech. They are two different things.
Where it explicitly details, about viewing recreational marijuana, as a public pollutant? They are in details how THC is released from marijuana. A change in evidence takes place after it is collected Marijuana has THC inside it is not THC. There is a clear transfer being made changing evidence after the fact is enforced by law.
So that there is an understanding as common defense this process has a legal position up to a specific point. Once cross the legality of the process is sacrificed what is to be established by preservation of United State Constitutional pre3servation is the states right to address this matter of state of the union.
Here's the truth, you couldn't find any supportive evidence that the those states, Marijuana Laws, have published within their own words, right? No it is not the truth, it is a statement to hide a inept understanding of responsibility to preserve a United State. The wrong is clear in the truth you are not addressing Law as united in the matters of state, and this is the principle which Ex post fact-o law’s take advantage of for any number of reason, legal and illegal.
So what does your shared website have to do with those states published Marijuana Laws? Are you trying to pass as credible an answer in informal in debate that is to be form me? Ex post Facto of it being directed to me? Like stated earlier we know gambling is an epidemic addiction and most law stops short on abuses this addiction has on United State Constitutional legislation.
So what does your shared website have to do with those states published Marijuana Laws? It is showing an understanding known as truth, THC is the basic principle in question of harm, and not a pharmaceutical processed chemical manufactured without permission.
Do pollution laws exist?
How long have they existed?
What is the reason as common defense to the general welfare and tranquility they had not been used?
Would it have made a difference on the attacks of (sabotage) terrorism made against the United States of America?
