re: [marijuana talk] How worthless do you have to be as an adult...

It's not so much a pot thing as it is a freedom thing. If you want smaller government being ok with recreational pot use is a natural position to take
Yes it is. And it's stupid.
We got people on here advocating for muslim registries, gun bans for felons, gun bans for people on no-fly lists, stop-and-frisk...and then they cry about muh weed, muh freedoms when Sessions was appointed AG.
Is the war on drugs a drain on society? Yes
Is pot criminalization stupid? Yes
Is Jeff Sessions stance on marijuana going to make me question his appointment as AG, as if it's even top 10 on the list of high priority issues to tackle in this country?
Smoke your weed; do your thing. You're not going to go to jail over it. Unless maybe you're selling it. In which case lol your side hustle is selling weed.

Would that be from the same group that believes that Global Warming is the greatest threat to world peace?
I started this thread because there were actually people on this board that said they were getting off the Trump train over Sessions' stance on weed. Those are the people this thread is targeting and those people should be ridiculed. Talk about losing sight of the big picture.

So you believe it has nothing to do with health and safety? If you do, then I assure you that you need additional understanding.

So Bloomberg, I guess we should have a ban on soft drinks too.
People are going to smoke weed. Quit making criminals out of normal fricking people.

Y'all make single issue voters out of people. Just like the left does with guns. Weed is something the right should be championing. It is the perfect case for small government.

Smoke some weed and relax my friend.

There are many issues one can advocate for. Marijuana being the predominant issue to determine who you vote for, does not speak towards your concern for freedoms. It speaks to your concern over weed. If you care that much about weed, you're a loser.

I don't intend to impress anyone with knowledge, only asking those that may not have a world of experience to think critically about their actions in youth. I didn't in many cases.
There are times and places where it would be acceptable if it weren't a habitual occurrence. But that leads to driving which endangers others and it is also destructive to your long term mental abilities if over indulged.
My family was raised with a very careful eye on what they were involved in and it's turned out pretty good. Did they have a good time and a toke now and again, I believe likely.
In the day my discussion centered around one of them were injured due to someone under the influence of drugs of any type. How would they deal with it?
Do what you will, but alcohol, marijuana or other drug taking the life of one of my children would have met an avenger like none they could imagine.

Trumpkins lecturing other Trumpkins about being single issue voters is an absolute classic. Today has turned out to be the most enjoyable day ever on this board. If one ever needed proof that we get the democracy we deserve, this forum would be exhibit A.

Fun filled fact, our first president has written more in his journal about growing marijuana than I've written in mine. Hell he's likely grown more than me too

There isn't a good argument towards criminalizing marijuana use. Not a single one. The one you provided is probably the worst.

Lock the doors on the Trump train. We can't have the dope folks jumping off the train before I get my tax cut.

Republicans aren't about small govt though. But you're right, this would definitely be ideologically consistent for the party that believes in small govt

There have been recent stats stating otherwise from NTSB; I will provide link tomorrow if possible.
As for my thoughts on long term mental. My thought are self observations of loss of goal setting, energy toward objectives, laziness, inattentive and other personality changes that have occurred with coworkers and peers. How much of this is documented in medical studies don't know and don't particularly care. Observed at its worse first hand from 1970 to 1985. Some did self-correct, some had not.

It's a litmus test of political insanity and common sense to determine if you're fit to be a politician that has executive power.

None of which are reasons to make it illegal. It doesn't matter if it makes you retarded after 5 years of use, the government shouldn't decide what is and isn't good for you, what you should and shouldn't put in your body, or how much of something you should consume.
We can both list hundreds of legal and seemingly innocuous substances and activities that can cause irreparable damage to the brain and body with prolonged use. That's probably the worst argument there is for criminalizing the drug.
I still think potheads are losers. Just like I think alcoholics are losers. And anyone else who depends on substances or drugs to get up and function throughout the day because they're too weak physically or mentally to do it sober.
