<<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 don't either. But I'd trust them a lot more if everyone I walked by on the street had a bag instead of a heater.

<<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.>>

Shootie....In my experience (some might call it high level research LOL) with pot I have never seen a person get ugly like I have with Gin or other things and those are legal. Many of our policies and laws are based on personal responsibility. Why should this be any different? You drive stoned - you get a DUI.

<<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 don't think being a pot head is any more acceptable than being an alcoholic. Society would frown on it.

<<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......>>

Thank you for making my point! I as a citizen of the United states would feel far better about not saying thank you to you for holding my door open if you were packin a bag of weed instead of a gun.

BTW - if you ever touch my door I'm going to have to hurt you LOL!!!!
