It was the pot. They probably had better pot than you or smoked more of it.



Ancedotal incidents don’t prove anything one way or the other.

Meth has been around for a long time, but in the 70’s was referred to as crystal, rather than meth as it’s more commonly come to be known.

Again small sample size, but my crew never felt like rumbling after smoking a bunch of pot, we were headed to the store for munchies.


Now alcohol ? We were ready to rumble.

Pot may indeed make some folks violent, but I’d wager it’d be a small amount, compared to say alcohol. Even driving, don’t believe you’ll find anywhere near the number of fatalities from smoking pot vs. alcohol.

So for all you guys wanting to keep society safe from drugs, are you wanting to go back to prohibition of alcohol to limit harm ?


I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.
