I think that impaired driving should be illegal.

I think drug possession and use should not lead to jail time but could be handled more as a public health/mental health issue.

Marijuana use is akin to alcohol use IMHO.


Probably. But we as a nation have not conducted sufficient medical research because it's illegal (significantly, at the federal level), so there are difficulties getting funding to conduct the research. Additionally, since it has been illegal while alcohol has not, we also have decades of health information on both use and misuse. It's going to take at least a generation before we get a more accurate picture of what cannabis does to people.

Don’t need government funded research to tell us that weed makes you stupid.

Curiously, it's also linked to almost every mass shooting. Uvalde, Pulse, Stoneman Douglass, Gabby Giffords' shooter, Columbine. And more.

is it a good time to point out that correlation and causation are not the same? because I think it's always a good time .


There are lots of things that are bad for your health and others that we don’t criminalize, including guns, alcohol, cigarettes, skydiving, etc etc etc
We can criminalize violent behavior toward others like drunk driving or mass shootings. Smoking weed in the privacy of your home should not be a prison sentence, especially when it’s used as a means to disproportionately incarcerate black people.

Amazon drivers are usually sub contracted and are usually drug tested.

I actually don't smoke, it makes me psychotic. But I respect other people's liberty.

I respect other people's liberty too. But not when I have to smell it in my home, the whole train ride on the Metro or walk through it at 8:30am on my way to work. When they respect me, I will respect them. Do that s(*t at home.

Well, if that is your opinion, then you don't actually respect other's people's liberty. Respecting their freedom to do certain things means accepting that it may impact you. And vice versa.

I don't think you understand how respect works.

After 26 pages we're still stuck on some people think other people should go to jail because they don't like the smell of pot.

No. Some of us are just asking that people smoke in their homes and not out in public while acting like a strung-out fool. I didn't vote for pot to be legal but not because I want people to go to jail. I don't care what you do at home. Or let's open up hash bars like they have in Europe. I'm all for that. But it is out of control how commonplace it has become and how the entire city smells like shit all the time.
