So, are you denying what he said? It doesn't look like it. It looks like you are deflecting. Look at the OP and his statement.

Why does the GOP pick and choose what we are allowed to do with our bodies?
Weed (no way)
Cigarettes (kill yourself)
Alcohol (BRB alcoholic)
Abortion (don't even think about it)

The argument being made is thta we lost the drug war, so we should legalize it and tax it.
Hi point is, no law is obeyed. None. Every law on the books is being broken, so why not make all of them legal and tax them? He is pointing out how dumb the argument is that the drug war is lost, so we should make drugs legal.
And he's right. Making that argument is dumb.

I agree with your general idea. Government shouldn't tell you what to do with your body, but...
Why do democrats believe I don't have the right to not insure my body without incurring a tax?

Are you arguing that people have had control of their bodies?
Does that mean Heroine meth etc should be legalized?
If you want complete control over your body, then you have to accept complete control over your body.

You change the subject. My reply was in context of the comment along the lines of "So should speeding result in a death sentence?"
quote:
Almost everyone speeds by driving over 55 or 65 or 75mph.
And?
The number of people driving..and speeding, has little to do with the cause of traffic accidents.

That's just human nature.
So is getting high.

Yes it all should be legalized
Legal limits of consumption just like with alcohol

How about manufacturing and selling the product you made?

Are you suggesting that speeding isn't a cause of traffic accidents?

If you want to use alcohol as a parallel, then you have the same regulation and government involvement. ALL aspects of alcohol production methods, production standards, licensing requirements, control of the active ingredients, allowed percentage of active ingredient, storage, transfer of product, etc, etc would have to be included in the "just treat it like alcohol" shtick.
Do you really want that level of government involvement, when now pot is seen as a very low priority to law enforcement? Be careful what you wish for...you just may get it.

What exactly is bad about that? I live in a state where weed is legalized, and having a clear process where ingredients are labelled and I know exactly what I'm getting is why legal weed is superior than buying it from a dealer. I can even buy vials of concentrated THC and dilute it to the exact concentration I want.

No..I'm not. I'm claiming that it is not a significant cause.

The data suggests that a third of all traffic related fatalities are speeding related.

I think that apples to oranges to what most people dream of as it being "legalized". In your state, where it is legal, you have to go to government sanctioned suppliers and their price is quite high. I think most people who want it legalized what it to be like planting a garden..."whatever I plant and how much is MY business".

The weed here is much cheaper now that it is legalized. I can get 20 mints, each of which are stronger than a joint, as well as safer, for much cheaper than what an eighth costs where weed is still illegal.
