No. Because it's not true. When someone sparks up a joint they don't suddenly just forget everything they've learned about driving over the course of their lifetime. That's just absurd.
The more THC that there is in your system, the harder it is to access previous experiences.
According to the NIH, there are enough scientific studies to consider that a fact. I'm sorry you disagree. Maybe you can write them and point out which scientific studies support your position.
good point, I'll agree that this is an issue that definitely needs work if a law is going to be passed. I would hope if a federal law was passed, the states would be doing something to comply with it, but we all know how the government works so who knows
The Federal Government cannot pass a law regarding driving regulations for the states to comply to... It's simply the way the constitution makes our government work.
Now you're just acting childish if you think "i beleive people should be able to do what they want" is a more valid argument than the billions of tax dollars we could be saving/generating. That's just ignorant, you obviously have difficulty admitting when you're wrong about something.
Mine is a philosophical view of the way governments and people should interact. It applies across the board to everything.
You simply want Marijuana legal for recreational use. You apply your standards here, and only here. If you applied any of your arguments to anything else, they obviously fail.
We spend billions on lots of different crimes... if only they weren't illegal, we wouldn't be spending all that money.
I like how you glaze over the other points i've made... you are picking the reasons that aren't as sound to prove your point
I'm not going to keep repeating your points for you. None of your points are sound.
Here's a hint: If you can apply the SAME reasoning to things you DON'T want to be legal, and the SAME reasoning applies, then your reasoning fails.
If we spend billions investigating and prosecuting murders, then by making them legal, we would save billions.
That argument applies, but it simply disproves the validity of your argument for marijuana.
the fact that you are saying this after claiming your "compelling argument to back up your position" was "people should be able to do what they want" makes you sound a bit foolish.
I'm guessing that you don't understand the logic behind it, for the same reason that you don't understand why your reasoning fails.
You have pointed out all of the bad things that happen to people who are involved in crime with regards to marijuana.
However, since those same bad things happen to people who are involved with OTHER crimes... you either have to accept that those crimes should be legalized, or that your argument fails.
You have pointed out that we could save billions by legalizing marijuana.
However, there are plenty of crimes that we could save billions if we legalized.
But you don't want to legalize THOSE crimes. Your logic fails.
Every one of your arguments can be successfully applied to something you don't want legalized... which means your argument fails.
My argument, applies across the board to EVERY law, and EVERY substance across the board, and across the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Agreed. You have actually presented a
less convincing argument than I have. "People should be able to do what they want" just doesnt hold water
You don't really understand the logic behind discussions like these... do you?
If you don't mind me asking, how old are you, and what was the highest grade you completed? Not meant to be snarky, but I am curious. I know this kind of logic isn't taught in High School, but I assume at least most college curriculum teach it at some point.
