so my friend makes the argument that weed shouldn't be legal because, you shouldn't be able to drive when you've blazed. he says that the percentage of weed can't be measured like with the use of a breathalyzer, so it wouldn't make a difference if you have smoked that day, or you smoked 2 weeks ago because you will still be positive. so i have a couple of questions
how fast does the percentage of weed in your blood drop? what would the percentage be, the day of smoking vs. the next day or the next couple of days?
can the percentage be measured accurately, cheaply and quickly, like with a breathalyzer?
if you have anything else to add, maybe for me to convince my friend, please go ahead. and please include sources if you have any
Stoners are terrible drivers, and the poor excuse that "they just drive slower which is safer" is total bullshit.
The real question here is, why are stoners such prissy little faggots that always have to have excuses to justify their pointless existences?
Ultimately all stoners should be jailed and hung.
Nicholas Martin
Alcohol is legal and you still are not allowed to drive. What is the argument here?
Henry Sullivan
A little opinionated, are we? I smoke weed every single day and I am, in my own opinion, a very good driver. I don't drive slow, nor do I ever swerve in lanes or drift uncontrollably on snow. I'm often picking out all the bad drivers on the road. Several of my friends are also very attentive and capable drivers, also huge stoners.
Brayden Hill
I smell butthurt.
Let me guess, you're an alcoholic subhuman that's salty because people are coming to realize that a stoner is not nearly as dangerous or self-destructive as a drunkard.
Oh, and don't bother with "m-muh stoner". I don't smoke or drink, I just have more than enough experience dealing with both drunks and stoners to say that a stoner is at least not dangerous to be around.
Nolan Powell
with alcohol there is a limit, and alcohol will only be in the blood for the day, whereas weed is in the blood for a month, so if you smoke one day, and someone takes a weed test after 20 days you will still show positive, so unless there is a device that can see how much weed is in the blood or something, you cant drive for a month
Nicholas Morgan
>Stoners should be hung >Meanwhile alcohol is fatal and weed isn't, alcohol makes you unable to control your actions whereas if youre stoned you can, ultimately if you can control the substance theres no harm done to anyone. you should be hung for being a cuck
Dylan Torres
not him, but just because your little precious drugs gets insulted doesn't mean that you have to jump the bandwagon and protect it to protect whatever little piece of identification that you have to yourself
it's not hard to accept that weed is a drug, just like every other drug out there, and that you're just another simpleminded druggie or someone who supports druggies
Noah Wright
How does it make you feel that a "stoner" or "simpleminded druggie" has a piece of paper that officially says they're smarter than you?
Adrian Martin
>to protect whatever little piece of identification that you have to yourself well no shit you're a druggie. it lies more in your personality than anything. you all you want to do is put moral superiority over other people, and that's just a recipe for disaster.
Connor Morris
there is nothing wrong with supporting drugs. people should use at their own risk, and if they're idiots, let them overdose on cocaine, the world doesn't need them. besides, many drugs can actually be beneficial, and there are other drugs that can be used instead of alcohol which are healthier.
gangs will lose a lot of income if drugs are made legal, because people would rather buy drugs from at certified store than a lousy street dealer. therefore crime rates will drop. the government will also benefit greatly, because they wont have to spend a lot of money to combat drugs, instead they will earn money from drug taxes. addicts can be helped to move on and live a productive life. this was proven in switzerland in the 80's, where they made heroin legal and the country benefited greatly inevitably people will do drugs, so why not do it in the safest, healthiest and best manner
much of this has been proven in the past. there are more points that i didn't include
Michael Torres
>in my own opinion, a very good driver Well then I guess this is settled
Yeah, we should legalize meth, cocaine, and also bashing people's skull in with a hammer. I mean, it's what they want. They consented to it. Nothing wrong with it from your perspective, right?
And you're going completely off point from what I'm trying to make. I'm trying to say that druggies have a dependency and you people support it. With beneficial drugs, people don't gain an addiction towards those.
Nicholas Miller
this is simple at the time of starting out this will become law. If you are in an accident even if it wasn't your fault and you test positive for weed in your system the accident will be your fault. If both parties are under the influence of weed the dealer will be at fault. we will log these accidents and study them for 10 years.
Isaiah Howard
You couldn't be more wrong, it's laughable really. You're the only one here trying to put your "moral superiority" over others. I occasionally smoke (vape) as I used to do it too much, but a couple of times a week is no harm to anyone. I'm just saying, you can't talk down to us when you are likely a virgin neckbeard that is mad they were too scared to try it when they were young enough to get laid because of it. I have a few hobbies and friends to share them with, my personality is not reliant on occasionally vaping weed you dumb fuck. Stay mad.
Andrew Moore

Oh my god what kind of faggotry is this. They can test you at the side of the road for intoxications of most narcotics now. Weed will still be illegal to smoke whilst driving. Just as fucking alcohol is. Your friend is a dumb shit and so are you. Fucking teenagers.
Daniel Taylor
No one said weed isn't a drug, retard. Just that it's one of the least harmful ones out there, but you thinking it's as dangerous as heroin, makes you retarded, retard.

I have been driving stoned for 4 and a half years and have never had an accident. If your not a piece of shitt light weight you honestly don't notice any difference in motor function.
Tell your friend he's a beta cuck.

@OP a mouth swab test is accurate for twenty four hours after smoking. Though I'm unsure of how long it takes to get results however.
Landon Garcia
I have a good job, a good degree, good mates and a good girlfriend. What more do I need? I'm laughing at retards like you while getting paid, gonna have me a nice little sesh when I finish work and continue to laugh at the fact there are cucks like you missing out on this AND thinking they are superior for it, you are a joke and a waste of oxygen, do the world and your parents a favour...
Dominic Campbell
You're a fucking retard op for even entertaining this.
There is a techique they use called a field sobriety test. If you pass, reasonably, you should be capable of driving. It doesn't take in account what you've consumed or not, just whether you can function at this level safely.
One of the big issues with giving a test to see how much the is in your blood is, when youre a heavy use stoner, you might be completely sober, but the build up in your blood would show levels higher than what it would take a non-user to be over the limit. Also THC is not the only chemical to look for, and the bigger culprit of poor driving and motor skills would probably be the CBDs.
Carson Long
if people want their skull bashed in with a hammer, they should get help.
druggies that are dependent to a drug, should also be helped as it was done in switzerland as i said.
and of course people can get addicted to beneficial drugs, just go ahead and take a look at prescription drugs, many people are addicted to those.
Not him but just you take drugs from time to time you are not a Junkie. As long as you sucess in life and are not addicted its no problem at all. It's like with alcohol. If you do it once a week you are not addicted or an looser. If you do it everyday and you suck at your life you are. Why? Because alcohol is an drug too.
Kevin Diaz
but is it possible to see when you smoked? maybe it is through the amount of weed in your blood, so can that be seen? people who smoked weed shouldn't be unable to drive for 30 days, so please..
Julian Myers
Are you stupid? It's not about motor functions. Its about cognitive and reaction time. Im smoking weed too, but driving on drugs is illegal because you risk other peoples life and people like you make drugs look bad and increase stereotypes
Brandon Smith

Tyler Ortiz
I drove to high school stoned almost everyday. If you're a bad driver while high you were either a bad driver to begin with or you are too new to the substance and probably shouldn't be behind a wheel yet. Also anyone who calls stoners 'druggies' or whatever is incredibly hypocritical if you enjoy drinking alcohol. It's the same shit just way more dangerous.
Kayden Martinez
Thats not right. I'm not a bad driver but stoned I drive really bad. I have ADHD, maybe because of that. But in anyway nobody should drive under influence of drugs. Taking drugs is your own risk, driving on drugs is risk for other ppl
Christopher Myers

Thc is gone within the day or so, all thats left is metabolites. Alcohol is the same but they don't test for alcohol metabolites they test for alcohol itself.
Jaxson Gomez
If you smoke weed on a regular basis driving high is no problem. You probably smoke every once in a while for fun or with friends or something. I am not advocating driving while high. A lot of people are too stupid to even drive sober so it's dangerous. I'm just saying it's not impossible, but what do I know I'm just a dumb druggie with no life or personality.

back, expected this thread to be dead so you think it's okay just because it's less harmful? right, so we should bash people's skull in with less force. that's just the right amount. right? the more you talk the more you support my points, you know >science channel >that goes into politics and no, not all the time rehabilitation works. 5% of rehab patients in the US actually get their shit fixed when they go to rehab clinics. what may work in swizterland may work there, but the america's is build up on selth-loathance more than anything else just because you smash your head in with a hammer doens't mean you're a retard as well, am i right? you're a junkie or junkie supporter who tries to rationalize it by saying that "oh jsut because they've become successful, it's arlight!!!" and yes, i know alcohol is a drug too. it is equally, if not more, abused than weed shitpost.jpg i posted that because i hoped someone would take my side as i had to leave i guess Sup Forums is full of druggies and druggie supporters. not too surprising, though, since it's full of "straight" people masturbating to trap porn

>wall of text that's mostly bs
If you smoke up big you're good within an hour and sober with 3-4.
Some compounds can linger in fat cells and hair cells for a few days/months/weeks but that's entirely dependent on your consumption. If you only smoke a hit or two every now and then you'll piss it out that day. If you're full on smoke-all-day stoner then you could still test positive a few months later. This is why drug tests are crap, because it incriminates weed smokers and other more dangerous drugs pass out of the system way faster and are usually undetectable.
As for smoking while driving, I'd say it all depends. If you're just going around the corner back home from your friend's place then whatever. I wouldn't want to be with a stoned driver on an icy mountain pass though.

This. There's a difference between smoking weed every now and then than smoking all the time. A lot of kids and Trump fags inhale a whiff of smoke one time and "trip balls" and get the wrong idea.

Cooper Cooper
Me and my best friend been smoking since we were fifteen. We pretty much smoke the same amount, but he is an awful high driver and so he refuses to do it. He says he can't concentrate on the road. Me, on the other hand, I find it much easier to stay focused when I'm high instead of constantly zoning out like I do sober. I've been pulled over four times sober for driving too fast or driving like shit. Only time I ever got pulled over high was because a tail light was out. Depends on the person. Some people don't change, some drive worse, and others drive better. Gotta know yourself and be responsible.

There is a "limit" for weed, and in the eyes of the law here its any at all. If youre pulled over and youre high you can still get a DUI
Ayden Turner
It's your life. You don't need to be super productive as long as you don't leech at the society. The sense of life is living happy and not working your whole life. You work to live. You don't live to work.

I don't usually get involved but some people just gotta be told to shut the fuck up. Some people do things you don't do, who cares? How would you like it if people told you that you couldn't suck massive cocks all day anymore?
Wyatt Russell
I already tried giving you a rational answer, and you ignored it. Nonviolent crimes that hurt no one are not the same as violent ones. Rather than waste more resources, we should accept that some people are going to do drugs.
>then everyone would do drugs hurr portugal's drug use hasn't risen
Lincoln Wright
that's the same mentality as a communist. not saying anything past that other than that it is.
and there's no kind of imaginary limit that you can make for drugs that can easily be taken to make yourself unproductive. once you allow it in the simplest of forms, people are only going to exploit it and further drown the unproductive nature in society. it wouldn't be long until everyone is unproductive by allowing this shit. some people cuck themselves with black men. some people murder and assault people other people without purpose. some people run corrupt businesses and leech off of smaller businesses. some people absolutely ruin others lives in order to gain a profit themselves.
but i shouldn't care about any of that, since i don't do it myself. ;^)
weed makes you unproductive, same as how doing anything of the above gets you shamed by the community and/or arrested.
Jonathan Ramirez
It's a good thing everyone is passionately discussing this issue on Sup Forums where it will be taken seriously.
Mason Brown
how the hell do you measure a nation's drug use when everyone does drugs within their homes? do you break into their homes and scribble what they're doing on a piece of paper before they yell at you to get out? do you do that for an entire neighborhood?
it was measured in the first place by the number of times people were illegally caught
and if you want to give an argument, post it yourself, don't be an autistic fuck and post a video on it.
and to understand why it was banned in the first place, you have to look back. they banned it because of the unproductive nature it induces. supporting an unproductive nature only leads to the downfall of economics.
Hudson Roberts
This is wrong. Around 99% of society uses drugs from time to time and our society is still working. Beside that there are drugs which increase your productivity like amphetamines or coffein and which are used for that. its always an thing of balance. It's not good when you only get your good feelings from a single thing (like heroin addicts) but otherwise its not a problem. And beside that work can be a drug too, there a lot of work addicts (so called Workaholic)
Hudson Peterson

>beneficial drugs are the same as drugs that make you unproductive why don't you just shoot yourself already
and those same drugs can make you counterly-overproductive, making you unproductive, if you do too much of it. it is a problem if you become unproductive.
work addicts have absolutely nothing to do this this argument. just because they have a name similar to alcoholics doesn't mean that they make themselves unproductive with their amount of work, you fucking idiot. it means that they're passionate about their job and they really work hard for what they do. if you're talking about the reply to , i'm not talking about morality. i'm talking about the effect they create in the real world environment around them.

It wasn't profitable. Nobody was growing marijuana in concentration the way it is now; you can raise and harvest a plant faster now with stronger results than in fucking 1870.
Productivity is an issue, but alcohol makes you unproductive and we can legally sell and tax that. Maybe you should wait until your Econ 101 final before mouthing off a bunch of horse shit.
Kayden Hernandez
In Colorado if they suspect you're high they'll give you a field sobriety test, if you fail that they will test your blood for the metabolites that only stick around a couple hours That being said I got pulled over for a tail light with my girlfriend and we were both clearly drunk and stoned and the cop said "you kids be safe out there and have a good night"
Daniel Ortiz
why the fuck do you morons keep thinking i'm defending alcohol as some basition of light? i'm fucking not. the politics of humans are counter productive and counter intuitive. shouldn't you know this saying that we should try to support people with drug habits or some shit?

So your whole sense of life is working as much as you can? Then you better kill your family because they will distract you. And you better have no gf because they will distract you. You better just sleep and eat and work all day every day.

Several case studies and longitudinal studies have illustrated the link between acute psychosis and mania associated with cannabis.1,19–21 The most prominent symptoms elicited are auditory hallucinations, paranoid feelings of being persecuted, depersonalization, derealization, anxiety, grandiosity, irritability
Maybe you shouldn't do weed because it's linked to developing a bunch of psychiatric disorders? You guys should have done your homework before taking a drug or any other drug. Recreational drug use is one of the worst life decisions you can ever make and it impedes your progress in life.
EVEN IF you say you lived a successful life while also smoking this stuff it can easily be argued that you would have had a higher chance of being successful and maintaining that success if you never smoked in the first place.
Now that i've wrecked this thread i'm going to leave. Goodbye. If you ever see another weed thread just copy and paste what I posted into it and you'll destroy that too and any other dumb weed thread that ever comes up.
