Issue 3 (For Ohio Residents)
#50
(11-04-2015, 11:36 AM)Au165 Wrote: Okay let's knock a couple of these out..

You ever been to a college party? The only point of Alcohol being there is in fact to get ***** up. Should alcohol be illegal in these cases then? Should we arrest anyone who has gotten "***** Up"?

You said you don't wish that on future generations, making one assume it has negatively impacted his life. Semantics really.

I know plenty of functioning people who use marijuana.

That gambling addiction ruins lives and families, and leads to plenty of suicides.

They spend more money on weed then they have like people do on alcohol

Caffeine is a drug. Just because it is socially acceptable doesn't mean it is not a drug. I am sorry that you disagree with science.

You don't care if someone gets wasted in bars, but because someone chooses to get high it's a problem? Is it illegal to get wasted? Your argument would work if it was, but since it isn't why does it matter if one leads directly to intoxication while the other is often used for that very same purpose?

One other quick thing. What defines sober? Is it a number? Whats the metric? You can surely smoke weed and not be "High" the same way you can drink alcohol and not be drunk. There are varying degrees of THC and I am sure just like only drinking a beer has no effect on me simply taking a small hit of a joint would have very little impact on others.

- College kids should not set people's standards... If that's your bench mark and a basis for your argument... whoa boy!

- That's not semantics. You drew an incorrect conclusion.

- Addiction to anything can ruin peoples lives and nearly ANYTHING can be addicting to someone in some way. AGAIN YOU BRING UP ADDICTION. IT'S NOT ABOUT ADDICTION. It's about purpose.

- Functioning people vs. people who don't is a matter of opinion. Lots of people don't function to a high standard because of lots of things. It doesn't factor into what my arguement is: Which none of you have addressed. You keep bringing up addiction and other BS stuff to skirt around the issue of the purpose of weed.

- I didn't say caffeine isn't a drug. It is not comparable to weed. I stated why and you ignored it because it debases your thought process on injecting it into the discussion.

- I didn't say I didn't care if people get wasted in bars. People can abuse lots of things to get high or wasted. Weed does not need to be abused or misused to get high or wasted. AGAIN, YOU IGNORE THIS POINT AND CONTINUE TO BRING UP OTHER THINGS THAT DO REQUIRE ABUSE OR MASS CONSUMPTION TO TRY AND COMPARE. That doesn't work as it relates to the discussion we're having.

- To legalize another substance for people to use to get wasted and be out in public is absurd to me.

- One quick thing..... Your argument with this bullet point is philosophical and contrarian. It skirts the main issue and ignores the purpose of weed for recreational drug use. I'm sure people can take a small amount of cocaine and lots of other drugs, too, and be perfectly fine. Where is the line drawn?

- And, please, this is not about anyone judging anyone else for using drugs. I don't care what you, or even some of my best friend's do. What I care about is the over all direction of our society and country and, to me, a line has to be drawn on what is socially acceptable out in the general public.

Again, why does society as a whole need or even want another way to get F'd up and check out? Is life THAT hard or boring? Or has society become soft and is now reliant on chemical solutions to help their problems?
