    That was true 30 years ago. If I wanted it back then, I could get MJ in high school way easier than I could get a 6 pack of Budweiser. I suspect that is till true today. The MJ war has failed, Colorado has recognized that, everyone else should get on board.

    Very recently I went to New Mexico, great time... the mountains, the Indian Reservations, 20 bucks per day unlimited mileage rental car... hundreds of miles driving because towns are so far one from another... dry lips, hands, feet... because dry weather...

    My next trip might be Colorado. More mountains, more Indian Reservations?... I love nature, and of course I won't go for such a thing as legal marihuana... I don't do that thing...

    .........

    ............... my nose is growing.......

    If you overdose on weed, you've smoked half your body weight worth.

    :alcoholic:Yep. And the kids in those schools will be getting their hands on it too. Much easier. They did it with ciggs they can do it with pot. Thats why they call it dope.

    :alcoholic:Sounds good. And while your at it why not just drop the legal age to get it. Save the taxpayers some money and drop the restrictions on getting it. Maybe the kids will do better in classes at school coming in high. Who knows right.

    Lmao , no it won't be ...show us examples ...

    - - - Updated - - -

    Again, you have no clue what an overdose is ...getting in a car and getting in an accident is not an overdose ... That really had to be explained to you ? Did you notice that what you posted doesn't even mention overdose one time ? Do you consider it an overdose when someone after a few beers hops in a car and kills someone ? :confusion:

    I try all the time to overdose, not gonna happen.....

    Story time!

    I have MASSIVE insomnia problems due to anxiety.

    When graduated college I saw smoking weed, which I used to go to sleep, as a weakness that I had to correct.

    For two years I bounced back and forth to the doctor. We tried everything starting with Trazadone and going on to Lunesta, Ambien, and even Xanex. I have a ridiculously fast metabolism and gain tolerances to drugs very, very quickly. Each of those drugs I was taking twice the recommended dose after only a few months, so we would switch....

    Finally my doctor asked, "Did you have this problem in college?" After saying no he asked "Why?" I then proceeded to tell him I smoke marijuana when I was anxious and I would usually fall asleep within the hour.

    He literally laughed at me, a great big chuckle. Immediately followed by, "It is actually less harmful to your body then the pills we have been trying. Here Let me write you a script for marijuana.

    This was 2008.

    Since then I have earned my Masters in Int Finance from Pepperdine, grown my company from 1.2M to 6.7M, gone 3-1 in amateur MMA fights in Orange Counties local scene, and met a beautiful lawyer who is an ex Miami Dolphins cheerleader which could be the end of me being single.

    Yup, weed, destroying lives one person at a time....

    Ok.... so don't stop and think.

    Just don't ask me to pay for your medical bills and invalid hospital care.

    Stupidity should be painful... if not lethal.

    "The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this."
    - Albert Einstein quote on Hemp"

    looking in a mirror wondering if he would be able to see his reflection if he was going the speed of light..... hmmmm what was he smoking?

    You can test positive for marijuana days or even weeks after your last use.

    First off , allergic reaction isn't an overdose ... It's an " allergic reaction " .

    Second of all I'll need to see some non conspiracy theory proof .

    So no examples ? Just rhetoric ?

    I believe you need to practice your reading comprehension skills. Go Re-Read my post.

    I made a prediction of some of the things likely to come from the legalization.

    Since it is a prediction, it is referencing things which "MAY" happen in the future. Therefore, there are no examples,... YET!?

    Yes, you have refuted fully every single claim I have made about the current varieties of POT caused OD deaths... All ZERO of them.

    Don't get me wrong. I'm thrilled that marijauna is legal. I don't like it myself. It makes me feel like (*)(*)(*)(*), but I think all drugs should be legal. The only drug I hate is methamphetamine but if other drugs were legal, I'm sure people would be less likely to use meth. Meth is just so easy to make.

    Smoke weed but don't drive. Don't operate machinery. Don't care for small children. Be responsible for your actions. Don't put anyone's life in danger by driving, operating machinery, caring for small children ec cetera.

    No, he didn't. That was said by one doctor who later retracted the silly statement.

    My first thought (yeah I got sucked in for a bit) was: "Man they must have some powerful bud in CO!" then...."No marijuana doesn't kill anyone"....then...someone POISONED it!! .......then.....never mind. :roflol:

    Your prediction is based of what ?

    - - - Updated - - -

    I agree with that all ... I don't think anyone impaired should be driving.
