I really have a hard time believing that this is a “genuine question” since it is obviously illegal to cate for children while inebriated. Why do think that is not still the law?

I asked because COMAR says a “provider, substitute or additional adult may not consume an alcoholic beverage or an illegal or non-prescribe controlled dangerous substance… “

Marijuana is now legal.

Uh, no. We voted for it to become legal. It is not yet legal.

So, you know how alcohol is legal? Do you think that teachers and daycare workers are allowed to drink on their lunch breaks? Genuine question.

I suppose they technically can since it is their unpaid lunch break.

I hope that’s sarcasm, and you’re not really this stupid.

The defense of all of the people who smoke and drive is that there is no test for it. Well, the same applies here: there is no test for it. So while marijuana inebriation would be considered to put children at harm for a caregiver, it would be difficult to prove. As a result, why promote policies that increase this risk to children?

So…not sarcasm. Got it.

Not true. There most certainly is a roadside sobriety test that police are trained to administer.

If a teacher is inebriated then why would a chemical test matter? Why can’t you simply observe the caregivers behavior?

In some people's minds, legalizing pot is promoting equity in two ways. The first way is to make it so POC don't get arrested for possession of pot. The second way is so that POC can make money by growing pot and selling it to the citizens of Maryland. Black people have argued that they are the people who should be able to grow pot and sell it to make up for past wrongs. This is way legalization is being pushed.

I'm happy about legalization because I can now treat my anxiety legally with small amounts of weed, instead of benzos. It's not political at all.

Is it legal for teachers and daycare workers to drink alcohol on their breaks?

This sounds like it was written by a young white person who has never met a black person.

Treating anxiety with pot makes about as much sense as treating anxiety with vodka. Maybe better to just deal with the underlying problem instead of trying to find ways to mask it.

New Pp here.

Lucky for you it’s recreational use so you can treat the chronic stick up your butt with it.

+100. Never seen someone strive to be a future dual diagnosis patient as a reason why drugs should be be legal.

I am worried about the proliferation of fentanyl in street drugs so I'd prefer a child try marijuana that is regulated IF they are going to try it anyway. I also worry that the bar to trying it has been lowered because it will be legal.

I am someone with a medical marijuana prescription for what it is worth.

Of course not, what a stupid question.

That is not what I said. I said legislators should have proactively worked to mitigate the known harms before legalizing it. Instead all they care about is tax revenue.

Yeah, they should have dragged out for years until a bunch of hand wringing old bags like you were happy. You would never be satisfied with any sort of legalization so just shove it already.

If we allow alcohol and not weed, it doesn't make sense.

So you voted against it? Really?

Might want to check your logic there.

This myth of people going to jail over pot possession refuses to die.

Nobody cares. Nobody deserves to have any sort of prosecution or police involvement for MJ use or consumption.

But continue your temper tantrum.
