Marijuana Question

If you have a Commercial Driver License (CDL), concealed handgun permit, or are in anyway are tested for UA you can't smoke it. And in Colorado if you visit a legal marijuana store they scan your driver license before you entry, big brother will be looking. It is not "really legal".

And that info will be going straight to NICS, count on it.
 
Steelslayer---where do you get these facts ? Someone told you ?

Mostly from my life and my friends lives

Just because some one does good financially or at work doesn't mean they don't have a problem. I have know people who did very well at work and financially and were either drunks or stoners. How much money or your job doesn't measure life satisfaction. Each to their own.

As Hendrix said "I am the one who has to die when it is time for me to die, so let me live my life they way I want to."

All I know for sure is until the Feds either change the wording on Form 4473 part 11c or legalize MJ at the Federal level, I'm not going to lie. I've heard that they "aren't going to enforce the law on marijuana is States that have legalized it." What's to stop them from changing their mind.....again?
If it's a choice between weed or a gun, I will go for the gun....

in your post #183 I think---I am not sure what yoou are trying to get across.
What kind of a problem are we discussing---It certainly is not addictive problems.
Areyou saying that all who drink are addicts? All who smoke are addicts?
I really can't interpret your thoughts .
I know that those I associated with had only one problem and it had nothing to do psychology or addiction.
I have been married 50 years. Put two children thru college---they smoked dope also. One married 17 years now and the other over 9 years.
My problem you say I have must not be overwhelming---others should be so lucky to have my problem.

There are highly functioning stoners as well as drunks.One family I knew growing up had a very "successful" father,but he was an alcoholic.So was his wife.40 years later,all 8 offspring are/were alcoholics,one is sober,one died at 40 and the rest are just hopeless.
 
I think the Feds are playing a slick game here. Have as many states as they want "legalizing" MJ, while sitting back and keeping in place the Federal law. This way, they get X amount of people into their databases for such things as denying firearms, and who knows what else... healthcare?

Yep, I know about the Oregon case, but the makeup of the court can surely change in the future.

Since I don't drink or smoke since over 20 years now, I wouldn't care if both alcohol and pot was banned. However as I said IMO alcohol is much worse. People die from alcohol poisoning probably every day. Also as far as addictive, it was much harder for me to quit tobacco and alcohol than anything else.
 
I would care--not for me but for the rights of others that enjoy it.
ENJOY should be understood, not as a need.
Depend on who is in that culture---I don't associate with losers or lazy.

OK, another cow patti hitting the fan scenario. You all know too well all this talk about Zombies and such correct? OK, legalizing MJ just MIGHT be what the Govt wants all along-making those people into THEIR kind of Zombies. This means, instead of saying: "It's Futile To Resist" they will not have any trouble with many of those folks resisting anything-especially if they are stoned all the time.

Nobody is saying that all pot smokers cant think or move but--from what im taking the meaning of from those who smoke it or have smoked it--that you wouldnt realize or care that some big entity, is pulling wool over your eyes. I for one, have troubles functioning sometimes thanks to my health issues, I dont need more to fight against by getting high..
 
I wonder how much of this same discussion took place in the early 1500's in Spain and France, as tobacco first made its way into European society then. Of course, cities smelled a great deal more back then and most everywhere one was constantly exposed to various kinds of smoke at the time (fireplaces, lamps, cookfires, etc), so maybe the introduction of a slightly different kind of smoke smell into the environment wasn't as noticeable or significant.

I do recall from history that many of the same claims of widespread health benefits, innocuousness, natural nature, etc. were all commonplace for tobacco from its introduction all the way into the 50's...

Just an observation; not a judgement.

Here's a twist; what if pot was legalized, but all smoking (including tobacco) was made illegal due to legitimate second-hand smoke concerns? :p
 
The stores here have it covered.They are selling all sorts of edibles :-)

Yes, but would all the "advocates" be satisfied with having to be herbivores? I'm betting that a goodly number of them would not be, arguing 'efficiency'.

Reading on tobacco history today revealed one of those facts that I'd have been happier going through life not knowing - - that being, a "tobacco smoke enema" was considered by medical science to be the primary resuscitation method for drowning victims, in the 18th century. :eek:

Guess we now know where that euphemism for lying came from.
