Now they actively look for it there. You can be stoned out of this world and still get through a roadblock if they are not actively looking for weed DUI. it would be a challenge getting through a roadblock that high but possible for seasoned smokers.

*facepalm* the overall rates, not a very specific, focused group of low impact, but the [i]overall[/i] rate of dui by marijuana has gone up. it's [b]tripled[/b] in WA.

1) Washington Post = liberal Fox News 2) this covers [i]only[/i] fatal accidents, not total DUIs. 3) this covers worries in Colorado only. 4) if tests can't give a good timeline on when or how high someone is, it makes marijuana considerably more dangerous than alcohol. alcohol breaks down much faster than marijuana and can be measured with a BAL test.

1. There are plenty of other sources. 2. I'm fine with more DUIs as ong as there are less accidents. Driving while high, while I don't condone it, it MUCH safer than driving while drunk. 3. The same goes for Washington and medical states. 4. You just claimed cannabis is more dangerous than alcohol, you lose all credibility. That is incredibly false.
-
credibility with who? you? other potheads? don't care.
-
Any informed person.
-
do you have a job?
-
I've had many. I was an armed guard for five years, three of which for a medicinal cannabis dispensary. Now I live off of the land.
-
well there ya go. if you had a [i]real[/i] job, maybe you would look at this differently. do you think it's ok to be high at work?
-
That's bliss ignorance. A job does not determine how informed or educated a person is.
-
I've had many real jobs and think exactly the same. I think you should work hard at work, regardless of what is in your body.
-
but what is in your body can affect your performance. you can't show up to work drunk, so should you be able to be high?
-
I wouldn't care if someone showed up on heroin as long as they did good work. What they do in their personal time is none of my business. Hell, cops are sometimes allowed to work half drunk, look it up. Some people function better while high. It's no different then popping some doctor pills.
-
I support the part about performing better while high.
-
your lack of work experience and understanding of the working world completely discredits anything you have said thus far. your argument is invalid. your viewpoint can not be entertained as legitimate. you're just another typical, unemployed, liberal pothead who refutes any and all evidence to the contrary of your beliefs, and who, in the face of lacking evidence, skews facts or attempts to belittle others to make up for your inability to support your view. you are the cancer that is killing society.
-
Squirt, you'd never handle any of my jobs. I understand the world all too well, you are oblivious to reality. You haven't even attempted an argument, you've been invalid this entire time. I'm neither liberal nor conservative, you're foolish for even acknowledging them. I also only use cannabis occasionally, and mostly for head aches. It's far superior to caffeine, alcohol and other drugs. The only cancer is yourself, luckily, cannabis cures cancer which is why it's going to become legal whether you like it or not. It has massively benefited the states that have. Your horrible views are finally being smacked down.

fumbling angrily to belittle someone just so you can feel like you have a point... [spoiler]called it. grow up, seriously.[/spoiler]
-
Dude. You lost the argument from the start. I actually laughed at most of your posts because it was just plain dumb.
-
[i]another[/i] ignorant pothead. haven't seen that before. :\
-
Good thing you're speaking to yourself in that mirror.
-
touchy, eh?

I love female tushy.

And traffic fatalities have gone DOWN.
