    Anybody that would smoke marijuana or do ANY kind of drugs is a loser in my book. Do you not see the misery that crap causes? Why would you even want to do it?

    Yeah, if someone is that dumb, they probably deserved to get caught. Not sure how you GUARANTEE he saved a life of two?!? Same thinking as in if heroin was legalized everyone would suddenly start doing heroin. Oh well.

    That kind of deflection is really silly , since it doesn't apply here....but , as you said sir..... Oh well..... If the guy wasn't driving , and I assumed he wouldn't be since The Patriot outed him , then its a guarantee he couldn't kill anyone while driving and smoking dope....hopefully he'll spend some time behind bars , and relinquish his driving privileges for good...

    I have zero tolerance for doing drugs /drinking and driving ....zero...its a choice to do either , and a really really easy one to make to not do either and try to drive...if a person feels the need to get high or drunk , then exercise some critical thinking skills , and wait til you're at home. don't the the extremely selfish thing and have a single drink of alcohol , or take a single toke of pot and drive.....be patient , and do the adult thing. it's a really , simple concept. It's called being responsible.

    Do you use alcohol, nicotine, or caffiene? All are harder than marijuana. I do not smoke and I do not condone smoking and driving, but if someone dose it in their free time it is no one's buisness. And no weed does not bring misory.

    Ummmmm , you don't smoke , or condone it....well how do you know for sure it doesn't bring on problems with family , health , work , or just life in general , seems to be a rather broad , not to mention very UN-informed brush you're using there.

    You saying someone who smokes marijuana and drives is GUARANTEED to kill someone is as asinine as saying if heroin was legalized today everyone would run out tomorrow and start doing it......

    Doing well. How about you, 3T+D?

    It takes 1 bonehead to sink a good company. Protect the good name of the company, you protect your job, your family and your workmates.

    Poor little burnout and your little burnout friends...if I had a heart, it may have even made me shed a tear.

    I smoked everyday from 16 to 20. Never caused any problems. Worked part time from 16 to 18. Have worked full time since 18. Graduated high school with a 4.0. Got a 27 on my ACT test while high. Alcohol is much more dangerous and causes more problems. I quit smoking when I had my first child because I do not want to risk any legal problems. Quit cold turkey almost 10 years ago.
