Side question.

Who would you rather share the road with, a drunk or a pothead?

There's an old saying. An alcoholic will come home from a night out with buddies and beat his wife. The worst a pothead would do is eat her dinner.

Some drunks want to drive fast and fight.

ALL potheads want to do is eat, laugh, and have sex.

I would share a funny story, but I am afraid if I admit I was there, then I can potentially be a witness......so, I can't!!

Oh wow......now that I think about it, the only one that could actually get in trouble is dead anyway!!!:(

I voted for legalization of both. "Driving under the influence" is a different issue all together.

So to answer your question of who I'd rather be on the road with: I say neither.

It would keep people from going to the dealers of more harmful drugs to score some weed.

How does the government make money by putting people in jail? Confiscations? Please. It costs far more to incarcerate than they could ever take in from the few confiscations they make. Unless of course you believe the governmenat makes a profit from reselling the drugs?

You could also grow tobacco in your back yard, but that don't mean it'll be the "high quality" stuff.:D ............although I have heard mention of some "high" quality home-grown weed, ain't nobody gonna make it grow with the same quality as Uncle Sam.:smoker: They have quality down to a science. They have hydroponic technology and growing factories, cross-pollenation techniques, and other technology that would make your average "head" stick with Uncle Sam's stash.:D Therefore, instead of Uncle Sam having to fork out money to put the dope-heads away, they could tax it and make boo-coo bucks selling it, while maintaining control of the industry with high-quality products.:D ............meaning more money coming IN than going OUT....;) Just a thought!

I know what you mean, RM. I mean, like I say, I don't condone its use, nor do I use it, but it seems to me that the best answer to the problems weed causes is to legalize it so it CAN be regulated. I wouldn't group potheads with criminals, that just makes the problem worse, in my opinion. Morally, I am against legalization, but otherwise that just seems to be the only logical answer to control its use. That, and the government could actually MAKE money at it instead of just throwing the money away like they've been doing for decades. History shows that what they are doing is not gonna stop its use, it just drives the prices up because the supply is slowed (not stopped - something they'll never accomplish). It's just gonna cause the problem to get more dangerous at every step. The more expensive a drug gets, the more dangerous it gets. If the government actually MADE money at its legalization, then they could regulate it, make money at it and spend money on more logical things, such as what was done with tobacco products,......you know, try to get people to understand the dangers of the product, and campaign against its use.

I'm torn on this....I enjoy a beer as much as the next guy....but what makes me different from some is that as I've gotten older, I've learned moderation. Some never grow out of the "binge drinking" mentality. (From my experiences.) I have friends that are in their 30s and 40s .....with kids ranging from teens to newborns and still think it's okay to dump their kids on grandma and grandpa or a babysitter every weekend and go out and get tanked starting Friday and ending Sunday. This in my opinion is not responsible behavior for an adult.....A: you've got kids at home, B: you may just have something to lose and going out and acting like a teenager, getting drunk driving, etc. is a stupid way to risk it all.....did I mention you have children depending on you? Anyway.....

I'm not OPPOSED to legalizing pot 100%......but if it were legalized I'd say it should be taxed just as tobacco is. I don't smoke, but I don't really think it's any worse than drinking....although I think there could be some sociological effects by legalizing pot....especially for those that I spoke of eariler that have not learned moderation. I won't get fully into that here though.

With that said....I don't want to be sharing the road w/ either. DO IT AT HOME OR HAVE A DD!!!

And I'm way too close to this issue to be able to make a call like some of you can. Maybe it is an issue that I have a stronger opinion on because I do work with the population that I do. It isn't just an issue that I relate to some funny movie or something but I see how it relates to children on a daily basis. Yep, maybe I am too serious. Thanks for making me a 'Debbie Downer'....:(

Let me put it this way.....I have a family member who is an alcoholic....I don't see her living throughout the year.

Her twin brother is a pothead......he holds down a job, goes to work EVERY day, doesn't smoke on the job......I guess he's lucky his company doesn't drug test.


I would MUCH rather be around him than her. He has WAY more brain cells....oh yeah...and way more liver too!!!

Most folks use 10-20% of their brain. Pot heads use 1-2% of their brain. Good point.

THC, a chemical found in marijuana, contains 20% more tar than a common cigarette but the THC is known to shrink cancer cells in the lung. FYI.

:) which are essentially like adderal and methodone. One legal, one not. Marijuana needs to be legalized, it costs more to enforce it then problems it alone creates. It would be more holistic then the crap the pharmaceuticals peddle, and likely more effective, cheaper and easier on the body.

Do we grow it? Import it? You cut the "middle man out" (our friends south of the border) and what does that create? Theses are problems the government isn't willing to get into....not to mention how it would taxed......more of a headache than the current situation I'd be willing to bet. Laws are laws and in place for a reason. I didn't realize we had so many "heads" on our quaint little web board, LOL.

Likely it would be grown here, it was done before, and correct me if I'm wrong, but by some Presidents and fore fathers lol, guess they were potheads too:thinking:
Tax it? like everything else, the price to grow it would be cheap, hell, it's a weed lmao So many potheads because people believe it should be legalized? haha I guess because alcohol is legal, everyone is an alcoholic! Then again:thinking: and how many are killed on the road by drunk drivers? hmmm danger from one compared to the other seem disproportionate

Been going to fringe websites to collect that info (lol like someone said watch out for those black helicopters circling overhead lol). I bet you believe in "global warming" too even though the official name of that little fantasy has been changed to "climate change" because global warming has been proven untrue in it's theory that we as humanity are causing it.:eek:

It all depends on each person and how addictive their personality is psychologically speaking. One thing I hate is when people say marijuana is a "gateway" drug. lol Oh and its true about heroine being the new morphine look it up if ya aint got nothing to do lol. I added the end of that sentence though, obviously. :p

Not addictive? I do not know where you are getting your information...but it is WRONG..I know cause I see it every day in my work....and also the bigger problem is 90% of pot today is laced with stronger drugs....I hear it all the time " yeah , I smoked a joint but I do not know why I am positive for meth " cause you do not know what the pot you smoked has been laced with .

Go ahead people , smoke it if you want , I need my job!

Just because some of us think it should probably be legalized makes us "heads?"

I don't smoke it, wouldn't smoke it if it WAS legal.....but that doesn't change my opinion on it.

I didn't realize how sheltered of a life I led until I started working when I was 18...at a hospital. I was SHOCKED about how much all those Dr's. and nurses cussed and smoked weed!!! To this day I am shocked at how many people I know that smoke on occasion. Growing up I thought it to be a "low class" drug, but now know ALL classes of people who indulge!

I have seen first hand the effects of both and other than the feeling the person gets who uses them the effects are far reaching. Grades, relationships, depression, other drug use, etc., etc., etc. There is a reason these things are illegal and I could show you many of the reasons in our community and schools!

If marijuana was legal most of those problems would diminish. Like overseas and in many other countries alcoholism isn't a big deal because you are allowed to do it and there is not a rebellion factor to deal with.

Hence the benefit of taking the dope pushers out of the equation. If you grow your own, you won't have to worry about any unwanted "additives".

As for your job, I don't smoke pot, and don't plan to if it's ever legalized. However, you might find yourself reassigned to handling REAL criminals if it is.;)

PPHS- you may not have an IQ of 1650 but you might be doing something with yourself other than playing on a computer all day everyday and something tells me you are probably at home while doing this. Most potheads I know as well as alcoholics do very little with themselves. It is a real shame but they will have a million reasons or excuses as to why they are the way they are when they just need to confess that it is their lifestyle causing the problems in their life.

I will readily admit that my lifestyle causes problems in my life. The fact that I'm a workaholic takes me away from my kids more than I would like. The fact that I enjoy fine dining makes it hard for me to enjoy bad food. The fact that absolutley live to watch House and 24 has caused me to sit on the couch for at least two hours a week. And the fact that I am such a friggin genius makes it impossible for me to find stimulating entertainment, however I have a lot of friends here who make me smile everytime I drop in.
