Funny, a google search of news results for car accidents contributed by marijuana returned nothing. What's your local news paper there?
Weed cannot be used as a cause in any accident because the THC test does not prove your high so it isn't recorded as so also it's the same in death weed can not be the direct reason because of the testing procedure that doesn't mean no one has died because of smoking weed but it can't be recorded as so.
I would rather not have that kinda crap near my home, so as a responsible citizen I would notify the police and let them sort it out.
In Oklahoma people can get up to life for growing pot, but more likely a prison stay of at least 5 years or so. I am not interested in rewarding a pot grower any span of free room and board via prison time on my tax dollars.
Many people are surprised to find out that after alcohol, marijuana is the next most prevalent substance found in impaired drivers. When used together, marijuana and alcohol have a significant impact on a driver's ability to perform.
In two years, the number of fatal car accidents caused by marijuana increased 25 percent. In Montana, marijuana now causes half as many traffic fatalities as alcohol, and the gap is narrowing.
All from Google. Then there are also the NORML et al sites that downplay the issue.
Marijuana has never killed anyone? I know 3 people who died in car crashes because they were high. I have been in 4 car accidents while and because i was high. One of them was serious. (destroyed my truck)
I'm sorry to hear of such tragic trouble, but thousands of people die every year because they were stupid enough to drive while drunk, yet there is no serious grass roots level movement I know of to ban alcohol to do something about it.
By the way, the government's ban on pot and other drugs shows how sorely ineffective the ban has been thru your own awful experiences.
No,you're wrong. About all the chemicals found in pot are no more dangerous than chemicals found in plants commonly used for food. There's also studies that show pot is useful for fighting cancer.
I would do nothing, just as I do nothing about my current neighbor who grows. It's basically legal here anyway, so the cops wouldn't care unless it was a major non-medical growing & sales operation.
If your neighbor was growing marijuana, what would you do?
If I found any neighbor doing such a filthy, disgusting act, I'd report them immediately!
