Are you pissed about something else? Because what you claim I'm saying is completely off base.
I didn't say one word about being against pot or drugs. All I did was post facts about the CONSEQUENCES you could face, whether it's employment or law enforcement related.
Safety is a concern with any legalized drug, just like alcohol. You can't truthfully say society is safer with recreational alcohol use, can you?
I grew up in a family with alcohol problems, and I lost my wife over her addictions. I think I have a more than casual acquaintance with the consequences associated with abuse of LEGAL drugs and alcohol. You'll never be able to support a position that pot is/will be different.
So, go ahead and throw a childish tantrum. I really don;t care. You can't convince me that recreational use of any drug is 100% risk free. The risks I listed are primarily societal, but you go ahead and pretend I was talking about something else.
Maybe you should put down the keyboard and read more closely before banging out another attack reply..
I get mad when you make dumb claims about dangers and consequences, because you decide to chime in with your never ending expertise on every subject, when you really don't know anything; i.e. highlighting that the guy who wrecked the trajn had cannabis in his system? Please educate yourself.
And you keep bringing up consequences of legalization. Alcohol and alcohol related incidents kill more people per year than the entire recorded history of cannabis consumption, yet I dont hear you crying about the consequences of alcohol when people bring up drinking on this forum. The fact of the matter is that there are irresponsible people doing irresponsible shit with any substance, and therefore the individual should be held responsible, not the substance or tool. With your apparent perspective, you should support more gun control, because its obviously the tool, not the individual, according to your responses.
So because you and your family have problems with addiction, that means everyone else will? In psychology, that's called projection, in which you project your own faults and inadequacies onto other people, assuming they will do the things you do. Sorry, but that's not how the world works. Just because you and your family suffer from addiction doesn't mean we should ban things that you might get addicted to because you feel we will as well
