re: Give me one good reason why marijuana should be illegal while alcohol shouldn't

Not to come across as showboating, but I will make you an offer. Meet me at work and we will get in a personnel basket attached to a crane that is going to lift us 150 feet in the air. Maybe the crane operator will be stoned, maybe he won't. We have no way of telling for sure because there is a "lack of testing measures" as you put it. You see no problem here?

What about a coworker with a prescription for pain pills who abuses them on the job? Where's your oxycodone breathalyzer, so you can test them in real time? Out of all of the legal substances that exist that can be abused with or without a prescription, alcohol is the only one I'm aware of that has a real-time breathalyzer type test (i.e. no blood work).

Also, what you're saying is that this scenario can't possibly happen now? That'd odd, because despite marijuana being illegal in Louisiana, I've definitely had jobs where my coworkers were high... You're starting to sound like those gun control loons who think that criminals won't have guns anymore if you just make them illegal.
