  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

That's because more people drink alcohol compared to people who smoke weed,
No, i am speaking from experience.
With alcohol you're all over the place and with weed you're not.
With alcohol people tend to speed, not with weed.

Anecdotal evidence? Really?

If we are going by that notion, drinking copious amounts of grain alcohol or moonshine can't be too bad for ya because Eastern Europeans drink them as if they were water.

I guessed as much...
Bye. :wave:
Seriously, they're idiots. And I love so many people here, and I don't mean in general, but with weed, they're damn idiots. They have no clue. They feed into anti weed propaganda and that's it. It's pathetic. I'm a conservative, but actually, this convo makes me realize why people call us clueless idiots.

It is, no doubt. i was merely giving my opinion as to how you could best witness on this topic. You're under no obligation to do as I suggest.

Would it make you feel warm inside knowing that I actually want marijuana to be legal, both medically and recreationally?

See, the biggest hurdle to the pro-marijuana side isn't the "pseudo," anti-weed science as you and your little friend like to reject, but of people like you. People who look at legitimate third-party studies, legit statistics, who also don't have a personal horse in the race, and instead of looking at the methodology used to conduct said studies, how the conclusion was based off of, looking at other studies and references wherever they may be that they use to either concur or dispel the original findings (Which happens all too regularly in the multiple facets of the scientific community), it seems the both of you are just fine with the faulty premise of anecdotal evidence vs. quantifiable and qualified resources. Or just resorting to the 2nd grade tactic of "you're dumb."

Again, if you want me to go off of just "anecdotal" evidence, I've never been in an automobile where the driver was using an illicit drug, but I have been in a vehicle where the driver was quite out of it due to their drinking. I wouldn't be exaggerating if I said I was in an automobile with such an individual at least 10 times, and of those instances, I've seen the driver drive a bit too recklessly, once, and I've been a small fender bender, once.

So, my personal experience should trump, supersede the national average and other statistics involving drunk drivers? Because my experience is quite flattering of drunk drivers. 80% of the time we were quite safe, only 10% where there was an actual collision, and even then, it wasn't that serious. Screw the science on the effects of alcohol. Interfering with motor function skills, central nervous system. Ta loca!

I'll just leave this little gem for the both of you, so you can both stick it in your pipe and smoke it. I am very libertarian when it comes to all drugs. However, when it comes to being behind the wheel, whether it be alcohol, weed, cocaine, shrooms, and even legal prescription pills that have altering effects, with the punishment handed down, I am very, very conservative.


not much though..

You really want to compare a he said, she said vs. quantifiable sources? Really?


Did i say that?

Well, you sure alluded to it.

In NL (EU) many smoke weed, but the substance that causes accidents is alcohol.

Unless you now want to shimmy in "most."

I used to. Now I smoke just a couple hits every 2, maybe 3 months when offered at the bar. I was an avid smoker and know the ins and outs, and I know this anti weed propaganda is horse poopy.
