NFL To Reduce Pot Discipline

You sound a little irate...Like what....specifically?
Can you illicit an example that's a similar comparison, or you gonna jump straight to ray rice and ray lewis?
You ever get a speeding ticket or jaywalk? Fucking criminal!!!
(I thought weed mellowed you out)
Did Ray Lewis get a suspension? Nope.
Burglary, illegal possession of a firearm, grand theft auto, domestic violence, assault, statutory rape, DUI?
Oh wait a minute, what if he made politicalLy incorrect statements.. Can that get you kicked out of the league?
PS I've never been convicted of jaywalking.

An admission of guilt if ever I saw one...

I've worked at jobs that do regular drug testing...and have fired people for failing it with just pot in their systems.
My wife works at a nursing home where you are not allowed to even smoke...and they do testing for it by nicotine levels.
Fair or not, it's legal and we follow the rules or get fired. We can bitch about it all we want but bottom line is you're unemployed if you don't follow the rules.
With each passing day this country is trying to get pot legal and would seem cigarettes (tobacco) illegal. Maybe the answer is to get all tobacco smokers switching to pot? The goverments (from local all the way up to federal) are going to need a replacement sin tax if they ever do succeed in completely stamping out general tobacco products.

This country, or our government for that matter, doesn't want people to quit smoking. You wouldn't believe the amount of money the government gets from just cigarette taxes. It's pretty fucking sickening.

It's not sickening at all. If people want to suck poison into their bodies then go ahead and tax them. We should call it the "dipshit tax"This country, or our government for that matter, doesn't want people to quit smoking.

or how about a coffee tax for the caffeine then? What about an environmental tax on plastic bottles for bottled water then? We could go on and on. The point is it is bullshit to tax the fuck out of smokers, they fund the roads, the schools, the bridges and much, much more. And yet it's a law that you have to smoke outside a fucking bar. If people were so concerned about their health maybe they shouldn't be at a fucking bar then.

Is someone a smoker?
On a serious note, would be in favour of taxing drivers to pay for roads, taxing basically everyone to pay for hospitals (although with private health insurance that essentially works like that anyway), having school costs coming directly from the parents, etc.?

That's a subject for the politics board but as I see it any of us who've had a public education are fair game to be taxed. I would imagine it might be fair to get a tax rebate if you or your children attended private school but...Is someone a smoker?

Yet I keep reading claims that the smoking population is dwindling, as less and less of the young generations choose to smoke. Perhaps should be taken with a grain of salt, but why lie about that? I think the gov't is fine with people quitting smoking, because they will find something else to help carry the tax burden. I've heard Obama admin has been trying to put more tax on soda pop. Some would consider that a sin tax too I bet. High sugar content and unhealthy, etc...

Actually...
While current rate is woefully inadequate, U.S. roads are paid for with gas taxes.
Public hospitals are funded by property and sales taxes (in Texas... ysmv).
Ditto above for public schools (in Texas... ysmv); if private school is a choice, it's additional and on the family.
