[QUOTE="John19841, post: 502964, member: 10939"] Here we go again. I never said it was legal. In fact, this whole discussion has been about why it should/not be illegal. Furthermore, you're comment just backs up my point. "[COLOR=red]so says the government, who say, it's illegal[/COLOR]" It's illegal just because they say it's illegal. Why? For what legitimate reasons? And just to be a smart a** yes, I can pick and choose which laws to obey or disobey, doesn't mean I don't have to deal with the consequences of those laws. I could go on all day with this one. Tackling the short point first, No I have not done a study on this. Have you? What gives you the right any more than I to debate this then? Right... Now, lots of things are legal that have no health benefit. The obvious here would be: Give me the health benefits of tobacco and alcohol. But getting away from those two, how about fried food, McDonalds, Candy, Fats, Oils, I could go on and on with food. Where's the health benefit in driving? Much healthier to walk. Outlaw 'em all I say! What I would question you, is what are the health risks vs alcohol. Which is worse, because it can be assumed that they would both be used the same. This is one of my pet peeves with the whole subject. No, I would not smoke while working just as I would not drink. You're analyzing way too much here. Yes, it impairs you. If it did not, there would be no point in using it.The original point I was making is so does alcohol, but Marijuana does it to a lesser degree. Anyway, speaking about the whole thing while working, there is something I do want to mention. The hair follicle tests they are doing know to test for Marijuana are utterly ridiculous. They go back months. Weed, like alcohol, loses its effect hours after consumed. To deny someone a job, or cause someone to lose a job because of exposure taking place months before, which has absolutley no effect on what was happening when the test was taken, well...That's what should be illegal. I don't quite understand this. I've never heard that arguement for it before. Anyway, I do like a nice heated debate. Now, if only more people in Washington would debate like this, maybe this country could get it's head out of its behind. [/QUOTE]
