I will relate one incident...
I came across a pot patch once on a hunt. Two men fired upon us. We were well out of range for their cheap 9mm carbines. They were within range for my .300 Browning and I proved to them what an expert marksman I am by picking off their tent poles from 600 meters. Although they decided to run after this demonstration, they did fire first.
My partner was a Marine on leave. (We talked about hunting them down like animals.) It ruined our outing. They were fortunate we returned to the truck, drove to a ranger station and made a complaint. We were never called to ID them or to testify, so I assume they weren't found even though their precious marijuana was.
I think it should be legalized, however, I don't differentiate drug abusers by their drug of choice. All of them are a danger to kids, especially to the teenage girls who a lot of these creeps try to get high to reduce their inhibitions about having sex with them.
I have been around the block a few times, so don't try to piss on my leg and tell me it is raining.
No argument on the pot garden dangers. I should mention that I wander in pot growing areas often, have had no interaction, I do carry Betsy (45 auto) at all times in said area. Now, lets discuss drugs as a method of raping somebody's children. For years I had the opportunity to employ hundreds of teenagers. It was an opportunity, I considered it a perk, loved those kids! Seems to me, alcohol would be the drug of choice for rape.
Although I'm anti WOD, don't frame me as pro drug.
