...I can't stand potheads...I've never met one that was worth a chit...
The part that chaffs me is when the welfare state intermingles with the pot culture and we have multitudes of "disabled" people drawing government (my) money to sit around and get stoned. I send about 40% of my paycheck to the government, money that I get from working a job that requires me to work a 24/7 schedule all over the globe and is in the process undoubtedly shortening my lifespan. A job that requires me to randomly pee in a cup so the government can be sure I'm not smoking the same weed that my wages are being confiscated for to pay some loser to sit around and smoke.
All of these things are failures of the welfare state. I feel no different about this than unwed mothers spitting out babies they won't pay for. I don't care what you do or how you justify it, I'm just tired of paying for it. Sounds like your anger is misdirected. Hating on potheads to cover up your .gov denial.

This comes as a surprise? Many if not most of the chronically destitute got that way by making poor decisions. A high percentage of them are already alcoholics and/or addicts. Making marijuana legal and more easily available can have only one result. This.^^^^^^^^

Yup. It's like Sgt. Stadenko told us in Sister Mary's class: " Only dopes use dope."

In keeping with the "confines of your own home" hand's off policy, most child abuse and neglect occur in the home. So dysfunctional parents and pedophiles get a pass I guess.
My home is the "sanctuary residence" for my firearms.

America's lower class are poor because they are either lazy or stupid. You might be able to fix lazy, but there is no cure of stupid.

Okay, time to lighten it up with some jokes.
What's the difference between a drunk driver and a stoned driver at a stop sign?
The drunk blows through it at 60 mph and t-bones a car, killing everyone in it. The stoner sits at the stop sign for 20 minutes waiting for it to turn green.
How many stoners does it take to change a light bulb? Doesn't matter, they forgot where they put the spare bulbs.
How many drunks does it take to change a light bulb? "What the f*ck you talking about my light bulb for, you f*cking ass-hole?! I'm gonna kick your f*ckin' ass!!!"
How do you know if there's a stoner in your house? The refrigerator is empty.
How do you know if there is a drunk in your house? The front end of his car sticking through your living room wall should give you a clue.
What's a stoner's favorite TV show? The test pattern. (older kids will remember this)
What's a drunk's favorite TV show? "You f*cking ass hole!! Change the f*cking channel, you f*cking worthless bitch or Ill kick your f*cking ass!!! How come you haven't brought me another beer yet, you f*cking stupid c*nt? You want me to smack you in the other eye? Huh? Do ya?! C'mon, give me one f*cking excuse to beat the sh*t out of you, you goddam worthless whore. Sh*t, I'm gonna kick your f*cking ass anyway just for turnin' on the TV while I'm trying to drink!" Unfortunately, those jokes perpetuate false stereotypes.

You can't honestly be that stupid. You know what he meant by that statement, and it didn't include harming others. You want to smoke pot in your house, I don't think its anybodies business but yours. If you can't see a difference between smoking pot and diddling kids you got bigger problems to work on bud.

I've read a report stating medical pot sells at between 9-16 dollars per gram. That would be a lot of money to pay for high grade medical pot. I rather think the source is elsewhere.
It is better to be judged by 12 than to be carried by 6.

Not "no rules" because there's always going to be rules in public, rightfully so. Just that the government has been the biggest benefactor from the failed war on drugs. In the confines of my house it's no ones god damn business what I do. Agreed, but.........going along with what Scott points out: The confines of the (won't use "your as I think it's inappropriate) home stop being so when Johnny Dopehead gets a hot load of heroin, etc. Now it's "our" (society's) problem. I'd wager less than 5% of the ODs I've seen have insurance. "They" have a fail-safe and know it. For disclosure......yes, I understand that this discussion originated with pot and some of these issues don't apply to that particular drug. George

George I'm assuming no one has a problem with 3 Muslims building a biological bomb in the confines of their own home, so long as the don't detonate it.

I personally know of a retired O & G guy that reached senior manager status with a major that f ukked around with all sorts of pleasures whilst in high school and college. One of my college room mates, who was a major smoker, i.e. all day long, graduated top of class and owns a significant accounting firm in LA. So, yeah, results vary.

Don't confuse Heroin use with smoking weed. Too many in your age bracket self-medicate with the afternoon drink that becomes the evening bender and blends into the 9pm drunken rage.

I don't believe I confused anything........why aren't you willing to go "all the way" if legalization is on the table?
What's my age bracket, BTW?

Ps
We have legalized it here in Alaska and that's fine with me. I don't use the stuff but let's treat it just like Booz and tobacco, tax the crap out of it and move on

You, at least, remain consistently wrong.
Though I suppose I'm likely a lot older than the young men you prefer.
