Not a fair comparison. Way more people drive drunk than drive stoned.

Ok, Mr. Empirical, where is your data?

[Craizie]

Done studies, have you?

Show me the proof.

You just think that BC the stoned people aren't out there getting into head on accidents so you never hear about it.
You've gotta be trolling...

First one is absolutely attributed to alcohol, because drunks are assholes.

The second one is potentially weed, due to clouded memory, but could also be blamed on alcohol.

he doesn't want to smoke... a few drops under the tongue might mellow him out a little

you want to creep up to a therapeutic dose, especially if unexperienced

What? Are you saying I'm not mellow?

[Cooter]

What? Are you saying I'm not mellow?

lol, no... just saying a little might calm you down in times of stress... too much could ramp up paranoia

I don't understand why some people say they want decriminalization instead of legalization. Don't they both basically do the same thing? What is the difference?

[YALE]

Fine then. Show me the proof.

Alcohol:

http://www.cdc.gov/alcohol/fact-sheets/alcohol-use.htm

"There are approximately 88,000 deaths attributable to excessive alcohol use each year in the United States."

In contrast to that, it's fucking hard to overdose on marijuana, much less die from it. The LD50 (lethal dose to 50 percent of test subjects) is something on the order of 20,000 to 40,000 times the standard dose. Have a nice day.

Not really. Legalized will result in government interference (taxes, regulations, more cost, etc). Decriminalizing means just that, it isn't an issue to have, but the government doesn't get their cut/say.

[talisman]

Ah. Well, I don't think that is going to happen. If they're going to free the weed they're going to take their 40%. Maybe this has been the plan all along. Damn Illuminati.

Google is very very simple to use.

Excellent! +2 internets to Crapstang and Sean88gt.

So many people make these statements but have no facts to back them up. It makes them look like idiots. There have been over 400 studies in the past ten years on the effects of marijuana. Cmon guys if we cannot educate - how are we ever going to get it legalized?

There's a way to have someone prove what they say, and a way not to. You did it the wrong way.
