    The POPO...THe issue I have is that there is no accurate test to see if one is stoned or not and to what extent a person is stoned....
    So what if someone is operating a motor vehicle and kills someone because they are high off their ass? THey should get punished right? What if someone kills someone while driving, gets tested and shows weed in their system but they smoked 5 days ago. We know they are not stoned, but will they get punished?
    Like I said, I do not know of such test and until that time, I can support legalizing it. However, I am for legalizing it once a test can be established.
    Mush like the BAL test, we know how much a person has drank and how drunk they are. I think we need that for weed if we are going to legalize it...
    IMO

    Well here's the thing. Rather than paying scientists millions of dollars to come up with such a test. Show me a driving test comparing a sober person against a high person. Let's see the comparison. I doubt there's much if any. Put it this way: I can get extremely high and read a book. When extremely drunk I can't even open a book. Weed makes you more alert to your surrounding and more open minded. Legal alcohol turns people into complete retards. There's no way i would have licked Eli's face if I was high that night. However give me booze and the sky's the limit!

    I think that it effects everyone differently.
    Personally, speaking from experience, I can not function while high one bit....I trust myself with alcohol way more than weed...
    I hear what you are saying and have been told that some people feel more normal while high but I must say, I can not be the only person that weed effects negatively...And I know there are irresponsible people out there that cant handle it and will drive possible putting other lives in danger.
    I dont know of a solution but I am def open to suggestions and hearing peoples ideas...
