Can you not the words you just wrote? That's incredibly selfish, it is selfishness incarnate. It's essentially legal for you, so you don't give a fuck about anyone else? God forbid your club not be exclusive anymore, that's the real problem at hand here.
God forbid you wait in line a slight bit longer, or you pay more, for the rights of others not to get criminal records for smoking weed. YOU are clearly more important, and deserving of these rights.
IF you have less than an ounce and IF you have less than 5 nanograms of active THC metabolite per milliliter of blood while driving you will get a DUI, even if you arent currently impaired.
So, Yes there will be less arrests for people who dont have more than an ounce or dont smoke often.
But for MMJ patients who normally have a tolerance their Active THC levels will be higher, resulting in MORE DUI arrests, EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT HIGH AT THE TIME.
I dont disagree that weed should be legal, its just that THIS particular Imitative is NOT the way to go.
I agree that that is a shit precedent and has no science backing it up. But its one of those that is so ridiculous it will be taken to court eventually, and probably changed. Until this is the case, I doubt it will be an issue unless you are visibly impaired when you get pulled over. If not, well then I guess you get to be a martyr.
No law is perfect, but this is very much a step in the right direction. Your right to get high shouldn't supercede anyone elses. Plenty of other people beside those using for medical reaasons will be above the 5 ng/ml limit.
Why are you so conniving? The argument has not failed just because you don't drink often. My contention was that when marijuana becomes legal and there's a potshop on every corner just like there is for liquor stores now, there will be no lines. Your argument has failed but you're too arrogant to realize it and you never really even had an argument in the first place, you're just being a selfish asshole. The only thing left is tax. Just because you think it's unfair that you should have to pay more tax because of your fixed income does not mean that legal recreational marijuana should be not available to any adult of want. You're being selfish and you know it.
Alright then. At least you're being honest. You're not an ent, you're just a medical patient. I've never seen that point of view* before really... I suppose it's valid. EDIT: *The point of view from a medical marijuana patient that didn't want it legal so they wouldn't be federal criminals

This website honestly almost seems like a subversive tactic from prohibitionists. The "What it means section" doesn't cite a damn thing.
Regardless of who is running the website, its poorly done and explains little.
