Why not UK

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-45806255

Legal weed in Leftpondia has been proven to reduce drink and drug driving.

Is stoned driving better than drink-driving? They're equally risky and
both illegal (in the UK and USA, and almost certainly also in Canada).


And your point?

It's obviously too complicated for you,

And immediately lost the argument.

Really? You either didn't understand the point when it was made, or lied
and claimed that you didn't.

Which was it?


Neither, you didn't make a point.
Obviously drug driving is no better than drink driving.
Both are illegal in all civilised countries plus the USA.
Just because I am in favour of legal weed does not mean I condone drug driving.


Any "justification" of allowing the consumption of illegal drugs on the
fanciful basis that it reduces the incidence of drink-driving has a
recognition (and praise) of change of mode from drunk driving to drugged
driving implicit within it.

Your "Legal weed in Leftpondia has been proven to reduce drink and drug
driving" was that "justification.


None of the above.

The FACT that legal weed reduces both drink and drug driving was not my justification, it is just one of the positive side effects.

Why are you so vehemently opposed to legal weed in the UK?
Do you drink alcohol?


I pointed out that boith are risky and that there is no (good) reason
for taking your uninformed line.


I seem to be more informed on this subject than you.
Like you I was brainwashed as a child to believe 'Drugs Are Evil'.
As an adult I have done my research and formed my own opinion.


You either didn't see that point or you pretended that you didn't see
it. One of those has to be true. There are no other explanations for the
content of your replies.

Let me know when you are prepared to have an ADULT discussion.


Let the world know when you are going to stop asking for "the point"
after it has been explained to you.


Legal weed in the US has led to a reduction in both drink and drug driving.


Prove it.


Do your own research. The data are out there.


So, once again, what was your point?


What... OTHER than the fact that you are talking out of the wrong
orifice, you mean?


More childish insults.
