It sure would be awesome to be able to get a bunch of cowshit and grow my own mushrooms without fear of the law.
The point I was making is that there are widely varying degrees of impaired.I don't distinguish. Impaired is impaired. The thread however states drugs so that could be weed or something else. I just have a thing about impaired drivers.
I understand what you are saying. I don't know where the line is for legal impairment but I still think it is dangerous for someone be behind the wheel.The point I was making is that there are widely varying degrees of impaired.
We already have laws against driving impaired. Why ruin someone's life fir smoking weed if they choose in their own homes . There is no evidence, as I assume you fear, that their will be an outbreak of people driving high if it's legalized.I understand what you are saying.

I haven't said anything about smoking in their homes or anything else in their homes. I have been quite clear about my position. It is driving impaired whether from drugs or alcohol.We already have laws against driving impaired. Why ruin someone's life fir smoking weed if they choose in their own homes .

Driven drunk and driven stoned. Let's just say going five miles and hour and ending up at a Taco Bell drive thru is not as dangerous as flipping a car over.By the way, with regular use marijuana does not impair driving. Nazi fags.
You implied it in post 8. Then backed away saying it was only DUI you had a problem with. I get that no else is ok with it either. We already have laws for DUI, and I have no issue with making them harsher. My point was it seems to me that you are worried that if drugs are legalized we'd have an outbreak of DUI. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what I get from your posts. I'm just saying if that's your worry it shouldn't be. DUI is already illegal.I haven't said anything about smoking in their homes or anything else in their homes. I have been quite clear about my position.

I have already gone over this same drill a while back as I said. I am not going over it again so just take my word or it. My problem with drugs and alcohol is impaired drivers. If you don't think there will be more impaired drivers I guess you can wait and see what happens in the legalized states.You implied it in post 8.

If you aren't willing to go into why post in the thread. I understand impaired driving but we have laws for it, and your fears about it increasing are just that your fears. It isn't a reasonable reason to try and tell another American they can't use drugs or alcohol.I have already gone over this same drill a while back as I said.

Did I say you can't use drugs? Use all you want even to the point of not being able to walk. Just stay from behind the wheel. Having laws against being impaired while driving hasn't been enough. Users and drinkers still get on the roads. I just don't want any more on the roads. You have my position so I see no point in addressing me further on the subject.If you aren't willing to go into why post in the thread.

It is the same argument I could use for more gun control if I was so inclined. I'm afraid that easy access to guns causes more murders you shouldn't be able to own a gun . See how irrational that is.
I don't use drugs or alcohol but thanks for your approval. You ceretainly implied you didn't think people should be doing drugs. Your reasoning behind not leagalizing drugs isn't rational. You want to restrict personal freedom because of something that may happen. It's the same as people wanting to restrict gun ownership because someone may go on a shooting spree. I get not wanting people driving under the influence. I think the answer is making the penalties stiffer and not encroaching on personal freedom.Did I say you can't use drugs?

From my experience as an attorney the worst drivers are the ones who smoke synthetic weed. Just saying.The point I was making is that there are widely varying degrees of impaired.
Sure, letting minors make adult decisions like that for themselves sounds like a brilliant idea.In addition to legalizing all drugs, I'd eliminate minimum age limits for drinking and smoking.
That's a waste of money and resources as well.
And synthetic weed has been linked to college football players jumping out of windows. Your point?From my experience as an attorney the worst drivers are the ones who smoke synthetic weed. Just saying.
Agreed. I'm just hoping Phil is playing devil's advocate here.Sure, letting minors make adult decisions like that for themselves sounds like a brilliant idea.
Some kids are going to do it anyway but there is no way it should be legal for them to obtain those things for themselves. If they want to drink and smoke they should be forced to go through the hassle of getting someone of age to purchase it for them and they should have to fear the consequences of getting caught.
