I suppose pot isn’t as non-dangerous as the potheads wanted people to believe.
Interesting. I remember stories of people “hallucinating” when they ate pot. This was many years ago — 3 plus decades.
Maybe there is some truth to the “myth” and by eating it, you can consume more and maybe the stomach digestive acids change it properties. Or maybe there are other chemicals that are neutralized by burning pot but are potent when eaten.
Alcohol is fine in moderation, but we don’t want to bring up all the deaths by self inflicted alcohol poisoning now do we? Water is great for you, in fact needed. But (as we learned not too long ago) you can kill yourself with it as well. Maybe we should outlaw more substances for the greater good, comrade. I hear some kids at my school are allergic to peanuts. Need to ban them; oh wait, they did because the kids at risk are too damn stoopid to be educated by their parents. Point is, people are going to do stupid things; I don’t want my liberties infringed en masse because of others poor decisions (hold THEM accountable, NOT me) no matter what I choose to partake just so long as I don’t hurt or otherwise damage another citizens rights or liberties. You need to re-focus on personal responsiblity as does this society and quit punishing society through a politician because we can’t hold the offender accountable.
Referring to my libertarian side, this seems like a problem that solves itself... but, the (no doubt soon to be) number of inadvertent or deliberate underage or unknowing victims will be absolutely unacceptable.
