It will hurt our society! -- "I don't care"
It will make people lazy! -- "I don't care"
It will damage learning in schools! -- "I don't care"
It will damage people's health! -- "I don't care"

It will poison pets!

Wait ...

What??

We -- We've got to do something!!!!!

You got a smile from me.

Unfortunately, it isn’t just pets that are getting the accidental doses. Did you see where the little girl ate a pot brownie?

Pot heads are a real problem. If that offends any fellow freepers, I apologize for the hurt feelings, but I stand by my belief.

Kids and pets don’t need dope or those who expose them to it. Adults? I could care less.

BTW, I was so heartbroken over Katrina, I donated generously............. to animal rescue.

What? Surely nobody on FR would possibly think that legalizing narcotics is a good thing?

Pot heads are a real problem.

Addicts are self-indulgent, self-absorbed, selfish narcissists.

[the_daug]

The increasing availability of marijuana due to legalizations may be one reason why pet poisonings have gone up.

A Hypothesis no actual study. Just misleading headlines.

Ah, my fellow Luhvullyan, a point of order: Marijuana is not a narcotic.

Ah, my fellow Luhvullyan, a point of order: Marijuana is not a narcotic.

Tortured semantics is just some more of the collateral damage. Technically a narcotic is a drug that induces sleep, but they've turned it into a general perjortive.

Ping to check out later.

The primary proponents of legalizing pot seem to be/appear to be of the Libertarian bent. If pot is not a narcotic, then they want both legalized. Pot and narcotics. Vending machine dope.

This stuff being circulated is a hundred times more potent than back in the hippy days. Narcotics circulated as pot, or circulated as smack, what's the difference if the end result is the same?

Guaranteed in states where this crap is legal, they're going to see a dramatic rise in mental disorders, psychosis, dementia, etc.
