Booze leads to drunk driving cigarettes lead to heart attack weed leads to whatever it leads to. You couldn't figure that out? You're just adding one more buzz to the other two.How does getting high lead to the same dangers as heart disease and drunk driving?

Weed leads to cocaine, crack, meth, heroin and death. Plus weight gain and laziness.

Right, but what does it lead to? What makes it dangerous? What negative affect of weed is comparable to those two?
-
So you agree drunk driving is bad correct? So you think it would be better if we still have drunk driving and up the ante with stoned driving?
In your zeal I think you're forgetting we already have the first two negatives with pot you will just have a third negative. That's all. Unless you think there is absolutely no downside to smoking pot.
And if that's the case then it doesn't matter. Even if it is the case I think people should be free to be stupid.
But I still don't want to see people who can't cope with the real world and have to be taken care of by the government spend that money on cigarettes booze or weed. I think that's a fair request.
(But that's another issue)

I'm just saying I think the adverse health affects of weed don't come close to those of alcohol or cigarettes.

You're nuts.
Or high.
Or blinded by a desire to be hip.
Fucked up driving is fucked up driving.
Booze weed oxy....
Maybe blow is safer. ..

Now, I may be mistaken, but I thought there were studies out there comparing drunk driving and high driving. I'm pretty sure high drivers were just more cautious.
I'll see what I can find online.

Here's a very recent study

Fat fuck weed smokers. Lazy, apathetic. End of story.
-
Smoke 'em if yea got 'em.
Was a good time, many moons ago. Been so long that I can't say if I miss it or not. Legal or illegal doesn't bother me too much.
-
I'm in that boat. I used to smoke it a long time ago so far be it for me to criticize anyone for it. I really don't care if it's legal or not I still won't be able to smoke it nor would I be inclined to at this point
-
To the weed zealots, I really don't give a s*** about how much dope you smoked or how much you love it. I don't think it should be against the law. I just cant take it as seriously as you guys do.
Generally the people I know who smoke a lot of dope seem stupid to me. Drunks seems stupid to me. Cigarette smokers seemed really stupid to me.
(PS just for the record Woodrow did you just post me a study involving 19 people? I'm sure Cal could find 19 scientists the think global warming is a hoax.
)But as to the norml propaganda sure there are less cases of stoned smoking. Probably lots more people drink than smoke pot and probably lots more people take a breathalyzer than a blood test.
So if you weed warriors would have no problem with somebody getting smoked up and driving a school bus, who cares?
(Still I don't want people on welfare spending their meager allowances on whiskey cigs or weed.)

I think the push back is that it wont be free enterprise, but is gonna be controlled by 10 "pre-determined" investors.....and all the pot grown, bought and sold in Ohio will be produced by these 10 "investors" only.....they will be selling shares, so others can invest, but guess who gets the money from the shares ???....they'll make millions before even one seed is produced........so, is it fair to give all the business income to just 10 individuals.....????
Sounds like a good guy deal to me that will make the rich richer and not allow others to benefit from the income potential....
Can you think of any other products that are a monopoly from day one???........

Well don't worry dopers, you can still grow weed in your house as good as anything you can buy really easily, unlike any other intoxicant.

Pal I think you're getting the idea that I give a fuck. Legal, illegal who cares? There are some de facto monopoly is in the world. Oh well. Weed is no different than any other product and people will make big profits from it despite the fact that the supporters like to think it's all peace love and flower power. I suppose you guys just have to make a decision between corporate profit and being allowed to get high legally. Are you letting the perfect be the enemy of the good?You can also make beer, wine and some seriously good meth at home.....
