You honestly think employers are going to treat marijuana the same as caffeine and tobacco?  Really?  You are incredibly naive.


As it is now, being certified to use medical marijuana doesn't get you out of a random drug test.  Because employers still view it as impairment.  Great, use your medical marijuana at home, but the stuff still is going to make you high, and no employer is going to risk somebody on marijuana running a forklift.

Dumbass, that isn't going to go away when it is legal.  You think your employer is going to want to have a bunch of stoned goons running heavy equipment?  Are you allowed to show up to work drunk?


C'mon, use your brain.

Of course we all know how much Big Marijuana wants pot legalized! http://www.politico.com/story/2013/07/big-marijuana-lobby-fights-legalization-efforts-94816.html

That's the medical marijuana industry genius, which will be dwarfed and squashed by the recreational marijuana industry.  Once it is legalized, there will no longer be any need for medical marijuana laws. 

After it's legalized it will all be DOOOOOM and civilization falling apart and kids will turn into weed addicts in DROVES and there will be no societal benefits.

There will be no societal benefits, just the same social costs we see with the other legal vices.

There's no way  that 40-somethings who grew up around weed and have friends and colleagues who smoke or eat weed and have seen firsthand over decades how not-especially-destructive it is, especially compared to alcohol, could possibly have formed accurate impressions based on their own observations. No, we've all been FOOLED by Big Marijuana!

As it turns out, most of my colleagues are 40-somethings, so in that respect you are correct, they/we haven't been fooled.


You and DOUR on the other hand, completely and utterly clueless, as you have demonstrated time and time again. 

Pretty sure Rush favors legalization. 

Uh excuse me, I'm an atheist.

So why don't you dial back that overly broad brush you're paint with there for just a minute.

THIS

Just to play devil's advocate for a minute (even though Scooter is pushing total bullshit, as always) let's suppose that contemporary weed is s00peR d00p3R POTENT compared to 1980's weed.

So fucking what? It's WEED, not China White. FFS.

In the final analysis, it doesn't matter.  What matters is that RWHN is on the wrong side of history, and I'm going to enjoy watching his efforts fail.

He's like that one guy staunchly holding the line against suffrage.

Oh, there's more than one.  Google Project SAM.

Oh, I know it is coming.  And you will find it is not the bill of goods you've been sold by the legalization people.  They could give a fuck about your personal freedom, they are after one thing and one thing only, Green.  And so we'll have another legalized vice, alcohol and tobacco will be just as strong as ever, and you'll have more addiction, which will require more treatment, it will require MORE enforcement to keep it from kids (which will ultimately never be enough). 


Add all of those "mores" up and you have something that is going to cost, not save, and all of the money is going to go to the industry, because they will fight tooth and nail all of these taxes they supposedly support,


You are being completely fooled but you are too stupid and blind to recognize it. 


Way to go America!

Actually, that is completely true.  The potency has more than doubled since 1983.

But that isn't something you possess is it DOUR?

There are a lot of things I don't like, but somehow I manage to not become a total prick.  I would never post even a person's first name here, and I know a few of them including people I really don't like, without their say so.  It's just common decency.

Well apparently everyone is peachy keen with both you and ECH declaring that posting PI is A-OK.  I just hope none of them ever end up on your badside. 


You guys are quite the pair.

Who posted PI?  Stop lying.

You did.

Didn't.

You posted my first name without my permission.  And as someone pointed out, it makes it kinda easy to find me with a Google search, so, yeah, you have.

Well, hell, the MPP goons will be all over you like stink on shit.  Your first name?  How awful!   

It's still PI and you posted it, maliciously.  Because that's the kind of person you are.  Are you proud of that?

I told you I don't like my name shortened.  You insisted. 

You didn't post Pixie's first name when she did it, or when others did it. 


You must be so proud, you are such a "big man"!
