YOu need to toss out your comparison to guns. It is totally invalid. YOu must only compare pre pot society to post pot society. Nothing more, nothing less. I think what you really need to focus on is the large number of bad people that already exist that may not be getting their fair share of dope. The bad guys don't get better because they can smoke a joint after they fill their heads with theft, rape, assault and arson. I doubt that being a little more high ever was responsible for stopping a crime. Society frowns on all sorts of shit. It stops nothing. The other day I found lyrics to eminems songs saved on my puter. My kid didn't even know what some of the words meant. Her friends emailed them to her. Do I think the net and email has cost some children their lives and their innocents? Hell yes. And I'm sure somebody sat around debating the potential damage...and said, Nobody ever got shot by using the internet......Sorry, no go. I didn't make your point. Your point was invalid. You can only compare pre and post without blaming "hand tools".....Just because I carry a gun to the mall, does not mean I would not want my hands around the neck of the ingrate bastard that let the door slam in my wife's face.....
