It is the case with guns....if you look back you will find that I suggested that many people who own firearms, should not.

We are not talking about my character, or yours. YOu are suggesting the masses. And I don't trust the masses as it is.

I'm a happy guy, when I used to get high, I got happier. I had friends that got ugly. Dangerous. Deadly. Not with guns, but with cars and even cue sticks.

And suggesting liquor as a comparison is like saying that if we compare bad to worse, bad starts to look good and therefore becomes acceptable.

I'm also not concerned with evidence of one doobie starting a killing spree. One doobie might move to one 6 pack and then back to another little doobie....a circle is started that becomes dangerous because people can't control themselves. Never could in the past, no reason to suggest they will in the future.

Perhaps I'm viewing this too personally since I think I would become more dangerous if everybody got high when and if they thought it ok.

See, if I hold the door open for somebody to enter a store, or church or a restaurant...and they don't say thank you...I get an incredible urge to grab them by the hair and fling their ingrate asses into the street......

I wonder how long I'd stay out of jail if I had to contend with "high society."
