Because there is a giant difference. My point was clear. Do you still smoke pot? Why or why not? Have any kids? When they’re of legal drinking age would you consider buying them a beer? How about a joint (within the safe, legal confines of your home)? Would you share a couple of beers with your son or daughter? How about a joint with junior?
These questions should not bother you at all if you equate pot with alcohol.

Yes, your unsubstantiated opinion was quite clear. A story oft told, in fact, but mostly, like yours, personal opinion disguised as fact.

Your questions don’t bother me at all. In fact, here are the answers:

Yes. On occasion.
It can be enjoyable.
Yes. 3.
They already are, and yes, I have.
It’s never come up. Doubt it will. It’s not how they roll.
Asked and answered.
Asked and answered.

But, to be clear, I don’t equate alcohol and pot. Alcohol kills. I’ve seen it firsthand on too many occasions.

Friend’s brother killed in high school by a drunk driver.
Friend himself drank himself to death at age 39.
Another friend drank himself to death at age 49.

The potsmokers? Still alive. And like the rest of us, some are thriving, some just surviving, and most are somewhere in between.

Cheers.
