[QUOTE="El Correcto, post: 3290031, member: 60631"] No I don’t, having THC in your system is not an accurate way to judge if someone is under the influence. THC has a pretty long life and can be stored in body fat. So a fatter chronic users can have THC in their system for months, doesn’t mean they are walking around impaired for months. I think it’s silly drugs are illegal to begin with. People bring up crime, violence, auto crashes, addiction, children and overdoses as reason against ending prohibition. Alcohol has been proven to be a factor in all these areas yet we’ve realized prohibition only gave way to even more serious problems. I think the current laws are responsible for putting drugs in the hands of children. What the :censored: does a drug dealer who will already get life care if he fronts a high schooler or even middle schooler some work. Seen it with my own eyes growing up, kids don’t need money to buy into the drug market they get the drugs no money down sell the work pay what they owe and save the profit to where they can then buy the drugs upfront. The repercussions and risk wouldn’t make it worth it for a legitimate business being regulated to sell and deal with children. This is something you would understand if you grew up poor in the hood. As for crime I’d want to see the black market regulated, taken out of the hands of criminal funneling money to terror groups and cartels. If people are going to be criminals while on drugs chances are they were already a criminal off drugs. Addiction, alcohol is a terrible addiction ruins lives. We accept that is the problem of the consumer they need self control, moderation and education. Education and fair studies on the drugs would be key here. Not to mention creating a demand, competition, lower prices and innovation in treatments. Auto crashes would go under regulation just like alcohol. Hard hitting punishment if you are going to risk killing others being a maroon. Also reasonableness in this to, actually learning how to properly detect someone under the influence not just drawing blood and busting them for smoking a joint and driving their car a week later. I’ll never be in favor of prohibition for any drugs. [/QUOTE]
