One or two or three drinks most certainly can get you “high.” Certainly a similar amount of pot won’t turn you into a raving lunatic. And you could never die from to much pot, unless you were in an airtight room without oxygen, I guess. Alchohol poisoning is always a possibility.

Oh, wait, is your problem that the doses for illegal drugs are too strong? Yell you what, were alchohol still illegal we probably wouldn’t be drinking Bud Light or winecoolers. Were amphetamines legal like they used to be, they’d come up with their own version of Zima.

“have you ever known anyone to do that? I have not.”

Yes. Maybe your whole support of prohibition stems from not getting out enough.

“most people who had a drink today, did not get drunk.”

You can’t be this naive. You are aware, aren’t you, that during Prohibition consumption of alchohol went up? Why? If you’re going to risk getting busted at a speakeasy for drinking you better damnable well make it worth your while!

Also, most? What about alchoholics? They exist. Probably 100% of those who drank today got drunk. And how many crashed their car, robbed a house to get their next fix, raped your daughter, or whatever else it is you’re supposedly preventing users of big, bad drugs like pot from doing?

You may certainly have the last word, TC, I don’t enjoy your histrionics or mischaracterizations of what I say. It is not helpful and I don’t deserve it. I have made my positions clear. If you don’t like them, that is your business.
