Marijuana: Facts, Myths, and plain old Stupidity.

Your memory is shot from your days of smoking.

You said "That's why they tend to not drive too fast where any of that stuff impedes their driving." So there is some speed where someone high suddenly becomes impaired?

Also you have claimed slowing down helps potheads drive better. But according to you, potheads aren't impaired, so why the need to slow down?

You head is firmly impanted on this one, pothead.

This is why I hesitated to mention my own use, because people like you are incapable of providing your opinion without putting some sort of slur at the end of it. Not that your reasoning abilities are very impressive in the first place, so I do understand why you have to resort to it.
 
And this is why it's so hard to keep cool about this topic at times; for doing nothing more than consuming something that helps us feel better about ourselves, those around us and the world at large, we're labeled as stupid, lazy, pot head criminals, completely undeserving of any and all sympathy.

****.

Yes, there is a point where driving becomes impaired if you drive to fast.

You are talking out of context. I have not been talking about alcohol or anything else. I am talking about driving while high and that is it. And your rebuttal was that there is some speed you drive while high that makes you impaired. And driving slower while high suddenly makes you unimpaired. So sorry you're wrong. And funny you call me a troll because I asked someone who knows you to describe what you look like and they said "a troll".

And now you are trying to go with the "weed slows you down" so potheads drive safe cuz they are slow. That's pretty stupid even for you. First off, it's not the same for everyone. Second, there are a myriad of other effects besides slowing you down. Surprisingly you have not addressed those.

And you're also using the reasoning that only potheads are qualified to talk about pot. Another moronic line from a troll.

Apparently, weed makes everyone into superman. Even trolls.

You're still dumb.

Because distribution would be regulated like alcohol and tobacco, which, if you believe the surveys taken of American high school students, are much harder to obtain than illicit substances. Do drug dealers ask for ID?

I'm going to have to see your response to "do drug dealers ask for ID?" first. I'm also just heading out for a lengthy walk.

Oooh Lengthy...best kind!
Why does our friendship have to be conditional? Why can't you just accept me for me?

As an addendum to what GVC said - which I agree with 100% - a regulated system would provide a bedrock for proper education. And I believe people will generally be more responsible if they are allowed to use within a structure, rather than being prohibited entirely.

You really think pot is more available to teenagers than alcohol, and that suddenly with legalization people will respect the regulations on it where they didn't before? That's rather romantic.

As available or more. Pot is ridiculously easy to score.

That's not really what I said. For the most part, the regulations now are; YOU CAN'T HAVE IT. If it's legal, and you can use it w/o fear of being incarcerated for it, why not respect the regulations? The folks in Amsterdam don't seem to have a problem with it.

Legalizing it would actually make it more difficult for minors to get, and offer greater incentive to adults to use it properly.

Okay, so why would the regulations on age limit( like those imposed on alcohol) suddenly make it more difficult for minors to get if the dealers and teenagers are already willing to break the the laws against its use?

Because the regulations would be age limit, and who could grow and sell it. Why would teenagers suddenly decide to obey the laws restricting their use of it based on their age, and why would dealers suddenly respect the laws restricting who can sell it and to whom?
