Drugs and alcohol
 

Would you support the legalization of weed if it meant making alcohol illegal?

sure, why not. as long as drug tests were illegal too.
:)

Sure, it's easier to brew your own beer and Rum

Growing weed smells MUCH better.

not to get completely DC/off-track, but the fact that weed is illegal is reeruned.

and I haven't smoked in probably 20 years.

where is the abstain from both option? :bolt:

Having done both, alcohol is far more dangerous when abused.

:clap:

I voted no. I'm not a fan of either, but the smell of marijuana makes me nauseous. If people are drinking alcohol it doesn't impact me unless they kill me with their car. If people are smoking marijuana it pervades the air around them and makes me sick. And I live in Denver, so I know what I'm talking about.

In before Bump

I agree even though I have little experience with marijuana

That's a pretty big "unless".

I think it's interesting that the poll is split exactly down the middle, btw.

Next poll idea:

Would you allow the gubbment to ban knives if they back off Gun Control?

Yeah, I wouldn't want that to happen.

It's a classic case of having two scenarios: something really bad that's really rare, or something that's slightly bad that's common. In my case, I think the more common thing has a bigger lifestyle impact when you play the odds.

yea .....

Sucks to be you!

lol yeah.

In before "weed cures cancer, aids, ebola, the flu, and Lou Gherig's"

It cures idiocy.

Or at least makes it easier to tolerate...

I have no problem with the current setup.

I don't drink or drug anymore, so whatever.

Would you want the bus driver taking your kids to school to be stoned?

Nuff said

Otto did it for years...

Most people don't have family get togethers and start smoking weed. Do you really want to be breaking the law to have wine at your Christmas dinner?

I wouldn't want a bus driver on any substance. But if I were forced to choose between the two, I'd rather have a driver stoned than drunk. The impairment from pot is "Safer" behind the wheel than the impairment from booze.

My bus driver back in school was an alcoholic....

No, I'd rather he be wasted. Good point.

I wouldn't want them to be drunk either.

I fail to see the point.

Who said anything about that?

:facepalm:

I've noticed one problem is that there is this perception that people who smoke weed are under the influence of it 24/7 and never stop smoking. It's like saying everyone who has a beer is drunk 24/7, except nobody really assumes that. Most people enjoy a drink once and a while yet it is assumed they are not an alcoholic. Anyone who smokes weed, no matter the frequency, is assumed to be a 24/7 burn out.

Would you want them to be drunk?

Most companies don't test for alcohol.

They do now.

No, but I would rather the driver be stoned instead of drunk if I had to choose between the 2.

I always drove much more careful under marijuana.

How about you do your work sober and then do your business on your own time? That sounds like a very American thing to do if you ask me.

Pretty much.

Stupid double standard.

"School starts at 8:05 sharp, Paul. The kids cannot be arriving at the school at 10:15 anymore. Is that clear?"

Anymore it seems the american thing to do is scream for and demand acceptance for perversions.

ROFL

listen, if i got them there safe and sound isnt that all that matters? who cares if we swung by the 7-11 and the arcade for three hours?

Voted no, but there is no good reason for weed to be illegal.

I still have no clue why they don't legalize it. The tax revenue alone would pull us out of debt in a remarkably short time.

Perversions?

ROFL

Stoners don't **** horses, dumbshit.

lol

It was a general statement not meant about the weed. Dumbshit.

Don't try to cover your tracks.

i like to drink but i would much rather weed be legal.

That's only because there aren't any horses in Florida.

and reduce the power of mexican drug lords


maybe it would even give the Mexican Government a chance to take control of their country.

If I could come home from work and legally smoke a bowl instead of drink a couple beers to wind down that would be awesome. I would sleep better and late night tv would be funnier.

It was a joke, dumbshit.

Which tracks?

It would make a dent for sure but make no mistake, there's more than just weed fueling that empire...

obviously, alcohol is far more dangerous drug to societies.

I would firmly support a prohibition ban :D

I would also support transferring those 60% of drug war prisoners in american prisons into medically staffed nut houses equipped to handle and rehabilitate them -- and for far less a burden to our tax system.

I drink too often to be ok with that trade..

But I do recognize the fact that alcohol is basically poison and much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much more dangerous (to you and everyone else) when abused.

I can't ****ing believe weed is still illegal after all these years.

the WOD is the impetus of all gun legislation and impending WOT legislation.

I would be for that if it could be purchased from stores like alcohol and there wasn't an outrageous tax on it. I guess I'm just all about convenience and not getting taxed to death.

I support Lumpy taking selfies

Closest poll in history.

:spock:

With or without duck face?

LMAO

Alcohol or pot? Why not both? Cannonball!

Id support mushrooms over alcohol...just for personal preference. Never been a huge fan of weed.

Have you ever done mushrooms...on weed?

I would love to go to my favorite hangout and sit around the bar and order a large coffee and a bowl of power plant.

one of my ex's was a huge pot head and she'd made me get high with her after a night of drinking and it would flip me the **** out and hurt my lungs

no thanks

I hated it

though the whole 'pot makes you lazy' is invalid if you ask me

I worked with the hardest working dude ever and he was a huge pothead...when he was high he'd make a lot of mistakes, though...but his work ethic was impeccable

So Saul, what other drugs have you become addicted to after you fell in love with the gateway drug that is marijuana, and why do you want the rest of us to become a crackhead like you?

I smoke a bit on the trip down. Makes it less of a bummer.

shrooms combined with drinking is much better

AMERICA!

In my line of work I deal with mostly business owners and over the years after gaining a relationship/trust with them it's amazing how many of them smoke weed and for the most part they're all quite successful business owners with a great work work ethic and major creativity/ideas.

Well duh. STOP DRINKING. :D

I work with some high profile individuals in companies with household names.

The idea that potheads are all burned-out losers is fallacious to say the least.

Ewww, yuck.

Don't combine anything with drinking. Booze ruins it.

Not interested in making drinking illegal but the number of people who can't control it and the extent to which it effects their lives while that process gets glorified is always shocking.

You don't think that happens anyways regardless of the law?

I like my booze on the weekends and rarely smoke , but weed is far less harmful to society in general IMO.

48% said yes...WTF...No alcohol during tailgating and social events? Come on now

Dude, why would you need alcohol at tailgates when you could legally smoke weed?

No fights with Raider fans and all the food tastes that much better.

Because weed is not fun, AT ALL IMO. Truth be told, I do agree it's less dangerous than alcohol. But it is like the least fun drug ever. Makes me just want to sit around, do nothing, and stare at something.

Dude, there is something seriously wrong with you.

Yeah. He forgot to list munchies.

Weed takes a few hits to get a head change, and typically a joint costs about $5 that you can share with a group of people.

It takes about 6 beers to get me buzzed, and then I'm bloated and I wake up with a headache the next day. 6 beers at a restaurant or bar is about $25+.

Oohh...that's a tough one. I'd say yes simply because I'm 100% sure that it's the less harmful of the two drugs in terms of impact on personal health and societal health both.

However, it's really not realistic to think that alcohol will ever be illegal in this country again. There's way too much money tied up in it to think you could actually shut it down. Not to mention the fact that prohibition of either of them is useless.
