yeah and the freakin retards say marijuana is harmless.
Even if you could prove some medical benefit to marijuana, smoking it wouldn’t be the delivery method.
Stupid hippies just want to get high
Nothing is 'harmless'. Not water, not food, not anything. This person should be tossed into prison for the rest of his natural life regardless of the substances he was impaired by at the time of this incident.

*But* cigarettes *must* be banned.
That deadly second/third/fourth hand smoke kills people, you know.
Hypocrites.
[am I the only person who’s noticed that pot has *smoke* too?]
Alcohol is much worse than marijuana. Just ask a cop.
A driver can be “impaired” by pot, alcohol, cocaine, heroin, lack of sleep, methadone, foot cramps, and about 40 other things, half of which are legal. To use this accident to try to make a point about pot is foolish.
Careful - pot is much like booze in its effects. It's not the substance so much as the person who uses the substance that causes problems. Your argument about it not being harmless because some of the people who use it cause harm is the same argument that those who would take our guns away use - we say guns are harmless and it's the person who uses it and they point out that because they can be used for harm makes it wise to confiscate them...
I used to agree with you, but immersion in political "discussions" over the years has taught me the importance of consistency in defining what one stands for. If I agree with one set of actions, the n I have to agree with those that use the exact same principle, even if it entails something that I don't like. Else, I become a cherry-picking enigma that is all over the spectrum and holding to no definable set of principles.
Their argument is that it makes you driver BETTER because it relaxes you. Didn’t work out for this guy (or the people that he killed).
