Re: New Study - Alcohol Kills More Than Marijuana

In 1980, I was with a bunch of Navy guys and the driver was clearly an inexperienced smoker. After a few blocks of driving, he requested someone else do the driving because the smoke disabled his driving ability. We were good after that change in drivers. An accident waiting to happen. Again in Maryland, I was to drive my girlfriend to a bar a few miles away. I couldnt find it. Again in Maryland a bar was 100 ft from my mobile home. I went 100 ft. from the bar to my kitchen. I toked a bong hit, went back to the bar 100 ft. from home gave him the rest of the weed I couldnt finish and then got lost in thought, I couldnt find my home a 100 ft. away. Imagine if a person smoked, got into his car and couldnt drive to where his own house is?? As with any substance you would still be responsible for your actions. Another incident in Albany Oregon... Someone I didnt know brought me outside the bar to smoke a bit outside. A few minutes later, I could not find my apartment only 5 blocks away. A chemicle applied to plants was called paraquat. I think it was a bug killer or something like that additionally improved the high. A lot of people died. Just for stats, Ill recall alcohol related car crashes Ive been responsible for. Lets see... 1977, 1979, 2001, all drunk driving. Numerous DUI's, and fights. So to close, it boils down to user responsibility and decision making. Remember, alcohol eliminates intellect, the ability to make intellectual decisions. Weed does not have that affect on your next move. I know with weed one is able to make smart choices as opposed to alcohol. Its now as always left to choice. Oh by the way, I never got in a fight from weed, and never got arrested for being stoned, and Ive never had any accidents at all while stoned. Intelligently it is your choice to smoke or drink. Im 50 yrs old, trust me Ive been there done that. Ive even grow allot of weed and I never made my own alcohol and I never will. Statisticly alcohol is THE MOST ADDICTIVE DRUG ON THE PLANET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Be safe and smart out there. PEACE be with you all.
