18 to 21 year old males lead the nation in vehicular deaths ( •At all levels of blood alcohol concentration (BAC), the risk of involvement in a motor vehicle crash is greater for teens than for older drivers.
•In 2008, 25% of drivers ages 15 to 20 who died in motor vehicle crashes had a BAC of 0.08 g/dl or higher.10) Now you want to give them legal weed at 18? You don't think that might have a negative effect?
I made no mention of those that serve honorable in the military. It took you two weeks to write three sentences a 4th grader would be ashamed of?

OldManOIFVet I agree with you. The part that amazes me me is the Pie in the Sky junk that the advocates keep saying. posting. Those that have no more concern than to smoke weed legal have justifications that will get it defeated on the ballot becuse they are simple stupid.
80% of all medications can be replaced by weed?
Coffee and Cigs. will have the same effect on driving as weed?
Will make it harder for those underage to get to get?
Will be monitored for driving and work abuse the same as alcohol? How the heck are they going to do that with no test other than a blood test?
Never a mention of problems that will come with it's legalization. That ignorance does more damage than the backlash of JUST SAY NO. People don't like stupid when they hear it.
I agree that it should be legalized but good lord at least think it through more than that manure.

You couldn't address one point? Just names and puff. Why did I think you were as deep as a shot glass and as wide as a crack in the sidewalk.

OK. Your just a nut with a little history and no connections. They also thought tomatoes would kill you if you ate them and days gone past. Move on and try to connect some of this to reality please.

They are not just there for weed sales alone. 60% of Fed inmates are not there for selling a bag on the streets. You have a point but the BS washes it out.

Replace 80% of perscription medication currently used? You really typed that? Read it three times and tell me you don't feel silly.

Sorry for the type error on legal and theory, Timothy Leary was a leading figure in the 60's drug culture.
I assumed prior knowledge, my mistake.

Good luck in college. You have strong spelling skills. They can teach you about logic and how to stay on topic. Your coffee and cigs. the same as weed duck walk was priceless.

Please tell me how you have such a great record of voting for quality honest people. I'll just copy and paste.

If weed is legalized:
Do you really believe it will save the state a ton of money.
Will make it harder for minors to get weed.
Not have any effect on driving and work safety.
Can be screened ( other than a blood test and if it's legal so what if you find THC) the same as alcohol.
Will remove uncertified dealers who's sales have no tax benefit or regulation.
Could not possibly result in a loss of Fed. funding greater than the revenue from sales.

I believe it should be legal but do not have a pie in the sky perspective on it’s complications.

By the way. I think it should be legal.

The bulk of posts I have read confirmed that stupid is everywhere. Weed won't change that. I'm just going to buy stock in Doritos parent company.

It's because it's not legal. when it's legal it will go way up. Stupid people abuse stuff. The more things they can abuse the more they will select to do so with.

No. Thousands more getting stoned than before will have no ill effect what so ever. The world will be the same and nothing will change. People will be happy and NO ONE will abuse it like alcohol. What a happy rainbow world you must live. If the total amount of stupid is the same it's a wash. That's the best I hope for.
