Mr. Norris, with Washington and Colorado recently legalizing pot smoking and their football teams (Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos) being in the Super Bowl, some have asked whether there is going to be added marijuana use during this year’s Super Bowl. And President Barack Obama recently said that he doesn’t think marijuana is as dangerous as alcohol. What do you think, Chuck? Is it? – “Trying to Make Sense of Sensimilla” in Seattle
I understand the arguments for the legalization of marijuana: It can generate tax revenue. It can reduce illegal supply and demand. It can strip power from cartels and lessen crime across and at our borders. And it isn’t so dangerous as other illegal drugs or alcohol.
You’re right; President Obama even claimed one of those arguments when he recently told New Yorker Editor David Remnick, “As has been well-documented, I smoked pot as a kid, and I view it as a bad habit and a vice, not very different from the cigarettes that I smoked as a young person up through a big chunk of my adult life.”
Obama explained, “(Smoking marijuana is) not something I encourage, and I’ve told my daughters I think it’s a bad idea, a waste of time, not very healthy.” But then he added, “I don’t think it is more dangerous than alcohol.”
With the president entering the cannabis conversation ring, debate has intensified around the nation. But what’s the truth in the alcohol-vs.-marijuana dispute?
This past week, CNN reported on some extensive studies and evidence surrounding the topic, especially in comparing use, addiction, withdrawal and the effects on using motorized vehicles.

I see you trolling for those people and their anti-conservative agenda, but you wouldn’t answer this question.
Do you think that if a resolution was placed before the libertarians requesting that states enforce child porn laws, that the libertarians would jump on the chance to vote yes, or refuse to vote on it?
Unfortunately, though God apparently thought it a good idea to give us each free will and He doesn't violate it, and our Constitution does state its mission to honor this truth, a great many believe God got that free will thing wrong and that they know better. (anti- "Christ", so to speak?)
The Constitution of our united, yet individual states is NOT perfect, but seems such an ideal way to address and balance our duality that Heinlein speaks to, while protecting ourselves against each other, yet live with each other and advance, thanks to what shakes out and is tempered by the friction and heat between those two forces within each state's experiment with democracy.
The Republic thing seemed like a good idea at the time, but people were different then and now it's a war out there. A crisis!
The EPA, with assistance from the NEA and a few other alphabet agencies, are finishing a new ruling that these experiments are an environmental hazard that causes global warming or climate change, not sure which yet, and we will soon be made to cease and desist all such activities.
"They" have decided that life in this wing of Schoolhouse Earth is to go under lockdown...for the children, who will inherit what we've created and what to think about it. And us.
1. I don`t believe in militarized local police.
2. “Ten months after the raids and the killing, on March 2, 2012, Guerena’s two brothers Alejandro Guerena, 28, and Gerardo Guerena, 24; along with Alejandro’s wife, Pauline Guerena, his sister-in-law, Denise Ruiz, and his father-in-law, Jose Celaya were indicted, and it was alleged that they imported and sold at least $4.9 million worth of marijuana between 2005 and the time of the fatal raid. The Guerena brothers have outstanding warrants for their arrest. Ruiz and Pauline Guerena were released from jail to the county’s Pretrial Services agency, and Celaya posted a $50,000 bond.”
Considering that Bruce Lee laid waste to Norris’s ass, it is a damn shame we can’t go back and bring Lee here and see what he says about weed legalization. Considering the insane amount and type of substances he placed in his body, at the very least he’d probably find it very tough to argue for a war on marijuana based on its health hazards.
already answered. see my experience with Lib in previous post.
Now please go away and bother someone who wants to listen to you BS.
I didn’t see your answer, was it a yes or a no, which post was it that you posted your answer?
“Do you think that if a resolution was placed before the libertarians requesting that states enforce child porn laws, that the libertarians would jump on the chance to vote yes, or refuse to vote on it?”
Was your answer a firm yes, that they would of course vote for a resolution calling for states to enforce their child pornography laws?
Or was your answer no, by refusing to vote on it, libertarians were signaling what the libertarian position on child porn is.
#68 now go away
sorry, 70
I leave you to make up some more stuff
I picked up the tar baby and don’t seem to get rid of it
I haven’t made up anything, but you have.
The libertarians refused to vote on the resolution.
That is the fact, they rejected it, which is a pretty strong stance.
So I made up my own experience in the party.
Nice twist.
Troll on
Now say anything you want make up anything you want. We’re through. A golden opportunity for you.
You lied when you said that I was making up “stuff”.
Here is what one of the major figures of the party you are defending and sharing your personal claims on wrote.
“”Children who willingly participate in sexual acts have the right to make that decision as well, even if it’s distasteful to us personally,” Ruwart wrote. “When we outlaw child pornography, the prices paid for child performers rise, increasing the incentives for parents to use children against their will.””
Here is what the party you are defending did when asked to take a stand against child pornography.
“”The party’s executive director, Shane Cory, saw the danger as well, and rushed out a press release titled, “Libertarians call for increased communication to combat child pornography.” Cory was attacked by hardliners who saw the release as an endorsement of increased federal prosecuting power. The party refused to vote on a resolution asking states to strongly enforce existing child porn laws. Cory resigned in protest, depriving a party in the midst of what may be its most promising election season of one of its most able organizers and fund raisers.””
oh, gosh, GIBBON: THE DECLINE OF ROME for a start...
THE WAY THINGS OUGHT TO BE by LIMBAUGH, too
Thanks for calling them out and saving me the trouble (and being a Net Nanny, and getting called "Net Nanny").

Another one over the fence by Burke.
I don't know how many times John Adams and James Madison said it, this Republic needs Judaeo-Christian morals in the People, to remain a free republic. Libertines, they warned, cannot remain free.
Link at StartPage won’t open. Sorry.
Physically impossible unless you're posting w/ eyes wide shut. Ansel just named one for you, Mary Ruwer, and quoted her on that very issue. She's been on the Texas ballot. What, that too obscure for you? You want to call "King's X" and insist she doesn't count?
The real stoners used to call it “sizzmillion”
