“Hypocrite. “

You know, I am not interested in indulging in a name calling contest. You think recreational drug abuse is benign. I don’t. There is no reason to get nasty.

I don’t happen to think there is really such a thing as a “l’il bit” of recreational drug abuse. I just don’t. Go ahead and pretend people drop a micro dram of acid or snort a grain of Coke. I know it doesn’t happen.

Whereas normally people have 1, 2, maybe three drinks. This is reality.

Right, being personally drunk is basically legal unless you have dependents there or whatever. I know. Public drunkenness is basically not. I know.

“I don’t happen to think there is really such a thing as a ‘l’il bit’ of recreational drug abuse. I just don’t.”

Then you are ill informed, or maybe irrational. Although you did use the term “abuse,” so I guess by definition you’re right. But let’s pretend you said use. What is with this midifier “recreational,” anyway? I see its general purpose, though ot begs the question what is alchohol use, if not recreational? Palliative? Workmanlike? Dutybound?

Please tell me at least you recognize the possibility of a little bit of “recreational” pot use? Or do children really leap out closed window’s after a single puff?

Hypocrite.

You established yourself as a hypocrite by claiming concern about people "becoming very serious threats to others" but ignoring the fact that at least some of the drugs you want to ban don't increase violence while the drug you want to keep legal does.

You think recreational drug abuse is benign.

Provide an exact quotation where I said that.

I don’t happen to think there is really such a thing as a “l’il bit” of recreational drug abuse. I just don’t.

You're wrong - I've seen it done with coke and with pot.

Whereas normally people have 1, 2, maybe three drinks. This is reality.

People getting drunk happens all the time. This is also reality.

being personally drunk is basically legal unless you have dependents there or whatever. I know.

So you know your previous claim that "Drunkenness is basically against the law" is garbage. Good. What have you done to advance the cause of banning drunkenness to prvent very serious threats to others? (Posts to FR count.)
