no like the situation I presented. A child could get tested to see if he or she is positive for Marijuana.

And I know the effects of addiction to Marijuana. I see it all over the place. People smoke Marijuana and become homeless. They kill people. They rape people while under the influence of Marijuana. So what is your point? Nothing.... If people weren't addicted Marijuana they wouldn't smoke it when they are looking for a job or smoke days before they're set to get 3000 bucks etc... That my dear is addiction when you can't control yourself.
Are you serious in this post? Marijuana, except in very rare cases, is a sedative. The chances of someone committing a violent act after smoking marijuana are somewhere between slim and none, unless the marijuana they consume is laced with something else. Hell, most of the smokers I know can't even carry on a lengthy argument when under the influence, much less attack anyone.

As for the homeless marijuana smokers, I'll be sure to let all of my friends know that they are in danger of becoming homeless. I'm sure that they will get a kick out of that, especially the ones who are doctors and lawyers.

You do realize that the movie Reefer Madness was a propaganda piece and not a documentary, don't you?

you still did not cite your assertion that drunk driving went up as a result of legalized cannabis.

I'll wait.

Any pot smokers I used to know usually just got the munchies, laughed a lot and then fell asleep. Sounds to me like you're just making things up as you go along.

So the child would be forced to get high with marijuana addicted parents as oppose to having alcoholic parents the child would not have to get drunk simply because the parents do.
Because being the child of alcoholic parents, who tend to be prone to violence, is soooo much better than being the child of someone who partakes in a natural plant.

Dianne you need to start citing your claims or they never happened.

Sounds like you have a very vivid imagination.

heroin is a sedative as well. They're both drugs and they are both dangerous.


And people hold jobs smoking meth. That mans nothing you can have a job and do drugs. What's your point? Nihil

Shhhhh, don't confuse the anti-pot crowd with facts. They get flustered when you throw facts at them.

Ya, because stoners drive slow as hell. Drunks drive with conviction... Right into oncoming traffic, or a ditch, but they get where they are going much faster than the stoner. I would feel safer riding with a stoner than a drunk any day though. Later is better than never, always.

Detox Network Sees Pot DUIs Spike in Colorado After Legalization - NBC News




I gave actually true stories....


And your claims still fail to address how a child is safe smoking marijuana everyday since they were 5 or younger.


Keep beating around the bush it only proves my point.
