No wonder Prince Harry wants to move to Canada.
Comparing law abiding people with stoners? Apples and oranges.
After legalization, one can be a both a user and a law-abiding person. The non-law-abiding were already using, and driving while stoned, before legalization - so also represent no increase in DUI after legalization.
Be happy the ER doc spoke English. The last time our kid was in the ER the doctor didn’t speak a word of English and did nothing for him. Of course, it was a several hour wait because two drunk illegals had a wreck which somehow took preference over a little kid with a huge inflamed knot as big as a fist on his neck.
My only experience with hash was in the Army in Panama. While Panama Red was common among the pot smokers, they were able to get their hands on hash bricks (is that what they're called?)
Just checking to see if you are reasonable on the subject.
Following the VA’s entirely irrational policy change, I expect to see a significant uptick in suicides.
One type is.
I’m only aware of two types, both were from Afghanistan. One was kind of rubbery and brown, generally in a ball, and the other was a brick or block, it was blonde in color, had the consistency of hard, thick butter, and had a circle stamp on it that indicated it was from Afghanistan, but for some reason, I can’t quite remember exactly what it said or how it was written.
Marijuana is harmful. It’s addictive. Legalization causes all kinds of societal problems.

So now you know I am reasonable on the subject. Morphine not strong enough. In the past they used fentanyl on my kid. This time profopol (sp) to sedate.
Meet is the new hash. Hash is just jerk, heated and pressed. Meet is the loose trichomes, knocked off of the buds. I’ve seen people with grinders that sift the meet out and store it separately. Smoking weed was a lot less complicated when I was doing it.
It’s called “Honey oil”
“So give them the old roadside tests: walk a straight line, etc. It may not be enough for a conviction, but it will get them off the road that night”
No, it won’t get them off the road, because they will have no problem whatsoever passing those roadside tests.
Other things they would have no problem with (presuming they could do these things in the first place):
Performance on the LSAT.
Playing quarterback in an NFL game.
Dancing the lead in a ballet.
Archery.
Skeet.
Ping pong.
Playing musical instruments.
Driving the Indianapolis 500.
Japanese tongue-twisters (Tonari no kyaku wa yoku kaki kuu kyaku da.)
Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
How strong do you think THC is, anyway?
Draw a continuum running from caffeine on one end to fentanyl on the other. Marijuana would lie right up against Earl Grey.
Wow. Autocorrect really doesn’t like “keef.”
Propofol
In South Dakota my kid was pulled over for speeding.
The officer gave him a ticket and then noticed who was riding with.
The rider had been arrested before for possession of pot.
Just like that they transfered both to the police station and gave them both a blood test.
It came back positive for pot.
My kid was issued a ticket for ingesting pot
Frankly, worse than the respiratory effects are the mental-health effects of cannabis. In my town, San Francisco, this idiotic drug is legal, widely available and the drug of choice of our infamous, deplorable homeless/street population. If you want a bunch of crazies on your street crapping and ranting, please encourage the use of marijuana. Now, pot fans will point out that not all users end up psychotic, and that’s true. But nearly all of the folks who do end up psychotic are pot users. If you don’t believe me, come to S.F., and walk down the pot-scented streets.
“It’s addictive.”
Imagine how much better life would be if people just stopped lying.
Oh, I believe that you were told that by someone you regard as credible, but somewhere back in the chain leading to you was a malicious liar.
Shall we ban everything that's harmful? Alcohol? Tobacco? Fast food?
It’s addictive.
So are alcohol and tobacco.

Quoting Tobacco Nazi sites on FR? For shame.
Most pot users like that also consume a lot of alcohol.
The dose makes the intoxicant - it's certainly possible to take enough THC to hamper one's driving ability.
“In the past they used fentanyl on my kid. This time profopol (sp) to sedate.”
I recently had a surgical procedure for which they gave me fentanyl and profopol. The hour or two after I woke up was the first time in years I have been without pain.
