Are you saying that weed doesn’t impair driving? You’re not saying that I hope.

Do you want to live in a nanny state where the government tells you what to do? Most people are able to not drink at all or drink responsibly

How old are you? And do you have kids? No judgement, regardless, it will just help me know how I want to respond. Which I do. Respectfully.

It’s easily the worst drug that we have such easy access to.

Yeah, all that heroin, fentanyl and crack are softcore stuff compared to the brown water.


Reading is hard. You can’t go to any store and buy Heroin, like you can alcohol. That’s my point. Easily accessible.

Prohibition actually worked much better than you may think if the goal is reducing alcohol consumption. It took decades for alcohol consumption rates in this country to reach the same levels that they had been at prior to prohibition.



You're forgetting about Local Option elections. Alcohol laws were not changed overnight across the country. There are still dry and/or restricted areas today.

No I’m not. There were dry areas before prohibition too.

ok buddy youve never been to bourbon street or a bar in general?


And that’s the trouble with weed. It isn’t contained to a building or a street full of bars. It’s an absolute invasive nuisance to everyone the fern worms smoke around. Never knew edibles were illegal. They really oughta fix that. It would be better for everyone. Or maybe yall should cultivate a less offensive smelling strain of weed.

Beer and wine have been clean sources of water and calories forever. Liquor, on the other hand, will kill you.

It’s not an argument. It’s a fact. Weed stinks. And the people who
Smoke it stink. And when you smoke it around others they smell bad too.

Deal with it.

That’s not a legitimate enough reason to make something illegal though lol.

One thing I learned in life is that you're gonna meet many people who smoke and drink in this lifetime, and my basic life perspective is that as long as they remain respecful then God Bless Em

My only complaint with edibles like gumming, is standardization of dose. You don't always get a good buzz

They tried banning it and it was a catastrophic failure?
