taken from that article shawn posted In one study conducted in Memphis, TN, researchers found that, of 150 reckless drivers who were tested for drugs at the arrest scene, 33 percent tested positive for marijuana, and 12 percent tested positive for both marijuana and cocaine (2). thats odd. Over 1/3 of the people who were smoking marijuana were using cocaine. It’s not a gateway drug though. ---

I didn’t mean to say there has never been an accident caused, in any way by marijuana. That would be asinine. ---

Marijuanna is no more dangerous than sitting behind a computer all day long preaching your ideals as if your better than someone who doesnt make similiar choices. Even better is arrogantly believing your right when there is no right/wrong answer. Unfortuantly I’ve known many substance abusers. I have seen alcohol put many of my family/friends in the hospital/coma/morgue. Alchol has had a very negative impact on my life. As for marijuanna i can’t think of ONE instance where it has cost the victim more than a sacrifice in their wallet. That is not to say driving in altered state is not dangerous or that there have been no marijuanna related accidents. Yet by this threads logic many of this countries founding fathers are merely scumbags… Many people just seem to be categorizing a mass of people they don’t even know, which in my opinion is just as dangerous. Forgive my spelling. ---

I smoked weed first, tried coke, tried pills, tried alcohol. I only smoke weed and drink regularly now, and I’ve been a regular user of marijuana for like…6 years? Not a crackhead yet :ponder Maybe I need to smoke more :ponder ---

Like i said, you are young… and smoking migh tnot be a big deal to you. but i bet you smoke by yourself, with no one else. Or wait… you probably smoke w/ kids like bfol… who also smoke. So when one of your friends, like Bfol does a line and thinks its the best thing ever, and your both completely sky high one night, your more likely to try it. You say you won’t, but i say i wont drive fast when i’m alone. As soon as i’m riding next to someone on a bike, there i go, 170 again. You seem think because nothing bad has ever happened, that nothing bad ever will. I guess the only way to find out is to see what happens.
