stereotypical stoners instead of average adults.

That is because “average adults” are not stoners!

Driving is the big issue for me also, we don’t have a decent test to determine level of intoxication from THC. All the tests can show is if it has been used in the last 2 weeks.

Pot is hallucinogenic, alcohol is not, it is a depressant.

Driving is a huge issue as there are no standard forms of pot sold. One has X amount of THC, another 10 times as much or more. We have been constantly told today’s pot is nothing like what the stoners of the 60s used, it is many times more powerful.

A user has no idea what dosage he is getting when he buys today’s products. Someone with slowed reflexes due to ingestion of depressants is a hazardous driver, but someone on hallucinogenic drugs isn’t a public danger?

Where is the FDA or the USDA on establishing quality controls, dosage levels, and safe blood levels of pot? When you buy a candybar, levels of salt, sugar, carbs, fat, etc are broken down to the nth degree, but pot labeling consists only of “really good stuff”.

Smoking cigarettes is bad, smoking weed is good? Really?

What’s the difference between a drunk driver & a stoned driver?

A drunk driver will blow right past a stop sign.

A stoned driver will sit & wait for it to turn green.

actually 30 days.

pot also has a very well documented pathology of destroying reaction time and brain function permanently.
