In my opinion I don’t think that’s the right solution. I think cannabis is closer to coffee.

    This is the same argument leille used when drink driving laws came in. “I can do it fine, why do we need a law”. We can’t set laws based on the outliers, we have to base them on all scenarios.

      Okay but law unfairly targets and exploits substance users in the first place, and you’re missing my whole point- cannabis does not impair JUDGMENT, unlike alcohol. Regardless of what you think, the statistics show it is vastly safer than driving drunk. Besides that, any laws like this would be especially harmful to the average medicinal user being as THC levels fluctuate and it can stay in the body for up to months.

        To add to your point: I once saw a TV show where they got drivers to smoke weed and drive a basic obstacle course, They presented stats saying drunk drivers were (iirc) 6x more likely to crash, while cannabis use was associated with a 2x higher likelihood to crash. So, while it is technically safer, it is definitely not safe.

          ah yes, because television never lies or mispresents entertainment as fact. ever. 🙄

            Haha, you must be so cool. Do you think everything on television is all lies, all the time? Like when a young person tells an old person about a fact they learned online, only to hear the old person gripe: “oh sure, because you read it on the internet it must true”. That’s one ignorant take.

            I’m gonna go back to not knowing you, never talk to you again, and live a productive life. Enjoy your trolling, basement man!
