Yeah, clearly it's different for you than other people. It's sort of like I don't understand how someone can feel the need to smoke cigarettes every day, all day long. But clearly for them it affects them differently than it does me. I can understand the joy of an occasional cigarette or drink but to me it seems crazy that someone wants to do it all times.
It all depends on the type of weed. Different weed has different effects. Some last longer. Some are creepers. Some are heavy (more intense). Some are more mellow. And, that's just regular weed. That doesn't even factor in hydro or other altered weed.
No telling how damn high you are right now.I laughed at "the point of weed it to get so high you don't know who or what you are anymore."
I haven't touched grass in over twenty years but if alcohol is legal, it should be as well. Alcohol is physically and mentally/emotionally addictive but the THC in Marijuana is mostly mentally addictive. I've never read a study that stated anything otherwise. That said, it shouldn't be abused any more than any other drug including alcohol. Personally, I've seen more people addicted to prescription medications such as pain killers or antidepressants than either alcohol or Mary Jane.
I might disagree about your last paragraph to the extent that people may tend to get behind the wheel and then it's would seem to be no different than another impaired driver.
Being impaired on pot isn't the same as being impaired on alcohol. If anything, you would drive slower. Driving while high is way safer than driving drunk.
If you get in a car accident, you're only going 4 fucking mph. Ooops...we hit something. You forgot to open the garage door, man.
I have no first hand experience but if pot doesnt impair or alter the mind what the point of it? My observations of the reactions of someone smoking pot is that it moves the mind to a stage of just not being alert or caring but again I really don't know.
I hear you, it slows your reaction time in a way similar to alcohol. The difference is, I don't believe there is any field test like a breathalyzer for alcohol outside of the old walk a straight line, follow the pen with your eyes, etcetera sort of thing.
I don't agree with this at all. Being high adversely affects your judgement and your reaction time. There is no way you'll ever convince me that driving high is way safer than driving drunk.
Okay, so maybe I should have phrased it less emphatically. Driving high is safer than driving drunk. How's that?
You shouldn't drive under the influence of any substance, and it is already a crime.
Still don't agree. They both are extremely dangerous. There's no tangible way to measure which is MORE dangerous. It's all subjective.
I don't agree with that. I guess we will just have to leave it at that.
You can still be punished for committing a crime. Same way a player gets punished for a DWI and yet the NFL doesn't randomly test players for alcohol.
This is a stupid question. Just because the league would stop testing for it doesn't make it mandatory that players use it. If players are caught in possession, they'd still be charged legally. Just like a DUI.
