The WOD has been a blatant failure for years.

And here is that Liberal propaganda getting repeated once again. Compared to what? Is the "War on Murder" a failure too because we still have murders?

Liberals/Libertarians have unrealistic standards for what they believe a "success" might look like.

His mother says her son likely didn’t see the warning on the back of the container which says,...

So he could have just as easily gotten into the bathtub with a hair dryer.

I don't recall there being any instructions on a bottle of booze.

Or tobacco products, either. I think it's a legal dodge. "our product is safe. Who the hell told you to stick it in your mouth and set it on fire?"

ROTFLOL Sounds like something Gun Control Inc. would seriously promote.

"After they left he got a handgun that he typically traveled with for protection, and turned it on himself."

It was illegal for him to be in possession of a firearm (federal law). But with pot legal in CO, nothing would have been seen or done about it.

“Sigh. Once again, Basic logic. I did not compare Alcohol to Marijuana. I pointed out that Conflating Freedom is always comparing Alcohol to Marijuana. I was MOCKING the comparison of Alcohol to Marijuana, not indulging in it.”

Again, regardless of whether you were mocking or serious, YOU brought the subject of the comparison up. YOU introduced it into the discussion, not ME. YOU cannot accuse ME of a “tu quoque” fallacy for commenting on a comparison that YOU introduced into the discussion.

“You can’t seem to tell the difference between something meant to be humorous and something meant to be serious.”

Yeah, right. You regularly try to tar anyone who disagrees with you on this topic as a pot head, so I’m not letting you play that off as a “joke”. It’s an ad hominem, a fallacy, as you are so fond of accusing other of making, except this time, the charge is accurate.

This part right here is priceless. :)

Potheads are special here.

WOO HOO! Indeed.

Having posts removed by the mod is all fun and games until you get put in time out. Don’t know what that is? I do.

Don’t ask me how I know, but you really don’t wanna go there.

/WOO HOO!

If he were only a pothead then fine. But being a retread troll who was zotted once before - then he gets extra FR brownie points.

I don’t know how or why he is allowed to agitate and cause friction here at FR. It’s JR’s house, he is OK with it.

Poor DiogenesLamp, can’t function in this world without the big old government setting his moral standards. For the rest of us self-functioning adults, marijuana legalization is not harming us.

This kiddo was going to kill himself with or without legal pot. Deal with it.

I am reminded of being mocked by kindergartners telling me I just don't understand something. :)

I might be mistaken in my perception of the societal change which will result from the legalization of drugs (Marijuana is just the camel's nose in the tent) but it is quite apparent that many "self-functioning adults" really have no greater grasp of the consequences beyond what they can see at their own arm's length.

IMO, think very thoroughly about where this sort of thing goes. Leave this topic to the drug promoters. Advocate against it elsewhere. Good advice for everyone? If you don’t see, think some more. Then, you’ll see.

It’s something much better addressed in each of our locales. That’s been neglected.
