I would disagree there, while a lot of stoners are lazy, there are some people like me who like to do something productive while high....i just cant sit on a couch doing nothing all day

^how I am

It all has to do with responsibility. Its like drunks and driving except there are far less accidents directly related to someone under the influence of weed thsn those under the influence of alcohol. Honestly, you should never operate a motor vehicle under the influence, but, and this is were the line is drawn, most seasoned smokers are perfectly capable of performing their normal functions high or not. Someone who smokes and does everything they normally would while high, overtime they grow a tolerance and there is little change in their performance when high, maybe even more motivated once toked, but thats just my 2 cents. Btw pot threads are old news but its in the td so wat the hell/

The only reason I posted this is because most people's opinions are not grounded in science or studies or anything like that. Their opinions are grounded in folklore, and a handful of people that fail at life, while ignoring instances that run contradictory to their beliefs.

I base the lazy and dangerous part off of self experience, thats alot more concrete to me than others opinions or studies. I know how I feel high and its not a "safer" feeling //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

But when developing policies, we are developing them for all people. Your personal experience is considerably less important in that situation; instead, we address it as a collective.

Besides, it makes no sense to say "That's what it's like to me, so it must be the same for everyone else."

i smoke, but hate people who get high at work. i don't like working with them. the reason people think they work better when they're stoned, is because they're stoned.

I wasnt saying that. What I was saying is it all depends on each individual. Everyone is different and everyone feels and interperates things differently. One person might feel fine driving blazed ans another might not. What policies? You should not be high in a workzone be it dangerous or not thats unethical. People have the right to make there own decisions but when that effects the safety of others it becomes an issue. THis is why people dont just walk around in front of police like o man I am high as **** man I am going to go drive around. RESPONSIBILITY thats what it is, if your action puts others at risk than you are amking the wrong decision. Im gonna go smoke now thank you very much.

I wasn't responding to your post, to be honest. I was responding to deuce.

I agree it is all about responsibility, and I'm not pretending that it is right for everyone. Just saying, such wide generalizations are grounded in belief not absolute truth.
