Drugs and new drivers... Is it really THAT bad?

Theres so many websites endorsing pot use , full of misinformation and downplaying its use .
they usually sell the detox kits or other defeat the whiz quiz solutions .
Or are from states where it's legal to sell
Do you think they may have an ulterior motive

 

Thing is I am pro-pot. I'm just anti-pot for drivers, pilots, and other people who operate big heavy things that can easily kill people.

 

I agree FB , the main reason I push back is this constant drum beat of it's ok and they shouldn't test us , it's bad info .
It's causing young drivers and potential drivers to get caught up in a career ending event

 

You dolt, if you could read my previous posts, you would see that I believe that pot may have some legitimate medicinal uses.
I am totally in favor of researching this possibility.

It is recreational use, and the claims that pot has no deleterious effect on the smoker that I object to.
You and your ilk are very quick to label anyone with a view contrary to your own advocacy for legalization a troll or a kid.
Further discussion with you is unproductive and a waste of valuable time.
Smoke a joint and enjoy a bag of Doritos.

The Drug situation in America seems to be truly bad.

This article came out on ZH a few hours ago detailing the reasons why up to 300,000 Americans might die from Drugs.

How To Kill 300,000 Americans (And Get Away With It)

 

Its in every industry. You will find drug problems in the highest echelons of business. My parents are friends with a CEO type and I've heard the stories.

If you are going to get-together/informal meeting/party with other CEO types hoping to strike a business deal and/or get some good stock/investing tips and everyone there is doing drugs.. well what do you do? You can go home and miss out, or you can join in and make some money.

Guess which most people choose?

 

The Japanese workforce used to have or may still be having a situation in which they work all day and then go out together to get roaring drunk and do it again tomorrow.

They have been doing that for a very long time. The closest equivalent I can come up with would be Esprit De Corps from the USMC. All in and all for etc.

Ive done a little of this and that, and learned a few things about them in my time. It's enough to learn what is worth pursuing or what to stay away from. Everyone is different. And Im pretty sure that all of us have some kind of vice in life. Unfortunately some of my friends chose to stay in that kind of life and I had to exclude them to protect my Class A from literally getting contaminated.

 

64,000 people died of overdoses in the US last year. That's more than our number of casualties in the entirety of the Vietnam War.

 

Those 64,000 ODs all knew the dangers of what they were doing.
