I love the feeling. Alcohol can be fun, too, but the vomitting and vehicular homicide dissuade me.

Then what about alcohol? It IS physically addictive. It IS intoxicating.

Sorry, but the war on drugs is simply a war on human choice.

Also, I get so fucking sick of people implying that drugs are bad, but Budweiser is a good beer. ALCOHOL IS A DRUG, you fucking wankers.

Completely agreed.

Alcohol and Tobacco are both more dangerous than marijuana. Therefore alcohol and tobacco should be outlawed. This is very implausible, as we've seen from the alcohol prohibition of 1920-1933. The legalization and taxation of controlled substances is much less dangerous and much more profitable for the government than prosecuting those who abuse illegal substances.

If marijuana was legalized and taxed, that would get rid of a portion of the "war on drugs" and create another income (which will more than likely be very large) for the government.

Yeah, it's the same thing. Safer for you body? Sure. Safer to drive on? Fuck that.

That's the issue I take with it. People wanna cry foul on alcohol and say that weed is no different, but they drive high. They go to work high. They take care of their kids high. Yeah, great, you can handle yourself. I don't care, that's not how the world works, get over it.

A guy has a shot of whiskey every morning, he's got a problem. A guy wakes and bakes every morning... and what? Nothing? It's the same shit. And don't even get started with "you can't get addicted" bullshit. I've seen some pathetic motherfuckers looking for a joint they lost, just freaking out cause their last bit of weed went missing and now they have to go out and get more. A mental addiction is still an addiction.

Look, this really doesn't upset me as much as it sounds. Like I said, I know a few people that smoke and do it pretty fucking responsibly. One works are the NUMMI plant out here and he never smokes at work. Never drives high. Never smokes near his kid or is high near his kid.

However, from experience, I've known more loser ass potheads than I have smokers. It's California, man. We're cocky here... and weed, just like alcohol, breeds stupidity. There are responsible drinkers and responsible smokers. And then the idiots... I just lump them together, pot, beer, whatever... all idiots.

Maybe it's different elsewhere... but here? Fuck, man.

That's because those people are irresponsible. They would be irresponsible without pot. And PLENTY of people take care of their kids while drinking. Hell, many of them beat the shit out of their kids. No one is calling for pot to be totally uncontrolled. It will always be a controlled substance, as it should be, but people should not be spending months and years in jail and losing their livelihoods for smoking.

Those people are weak minded individuals. I have friends like that. I also know people that get off of work and purchase a tall can at the first store they pass.

The point about addiction is that I could stop smoking today without hesitation. I may be more irritable than usual (when I could legally go to the doctor and be prescribed a FAR more dangerous drug to take care of the anxiety). However, Xanax makes me groggy all day and I will happily shrug off work when taking it. That said, I would not go through withdrawals (unless I was taking xanax regularly and stopped).

So, I guess it's safe to say that you think your friend should be thrown in jail.

The problem that I have with your reasoning is that you seem to be blaming the drug for the idiot. Those people were idiots before drugs. They will be idiots without drugs. Not just that, but they will find drugs. Hell, give them a can of duster and watch them go. It seems like a better idea would be to outlaw stupidity.

No, only I am right. If someone agrees with me, they are less wrong.

Agreed.

Great, you're not addicted. Congratulations.

How did you get that?

Agreed, sort of. Drugs make some people stupid. Not everyone. Not even a lot. Some. I recognize that it's not everyone.

We agree on almost everything. We're just on different sides of the same coin. You were reading things that weren't there. I'm not pleading the case for alcohol. I think punishments for reckless use of alcohol should be harsher. I haven't been drunk in over a year. I'm just saying what you basically said. If you're going to say that pot is no worse or better than alcohol, you have to hold it to the same standards. A lot of people don't.

But it's OK. I'm willing to concede here so that this topic can get back on track. Sorry for derailing things again.

As long as people are spending more time in jail for simple possession than 3rd offence DUI, our country will never be just.
