When you legalize a substance, you don't really need to have specialized education about it anymore. I was in Japan for that particular period of my life so I don't know how it's done in the US, but I don't remember getting any special D.A.R.E.-like program about alcohol and tobacco. Kids just knew about its use and dangers from growing up with it.
People who didn't want to smoke... just, well, didn't. There was no educational program to say smoking causes cancer. Everyone just knew.
It seems that making programs and propaganda supporting what I would hope to be common sense almost has some aura or haze of contrary reaction among the generation it was intended for.
Not that the group that falls under is statistically a majority, but it certainly has a noticeable outcome when compared to other countries. But then again, we're on a much larger scale in general.

No.
I can sit here for an hour trying to tell you how wrong you are, but I would only end up wasting an hour of my life. If you can't draw your own conclusions from the sentence I bolded in your post, then any point, argument and/or governing reason that dictates the fallaciousity of your reasoning skills becomes pointless.

the correct word to use would be fallacy, if you had reworded your sentence you could have used fallacious.

lunchtime kittens~
paragraph structure, comma splicing..all that becomes irrelevant when posting in a forum.
now sentence structure, how your words flow as you type, that's the only thing that really matters.
so any point you had is beside the point, and you have to point out other things about me to supplement your opinion because you can't do anything else other than that.
:D
but anyway, back in 30

keep on scavenging for your "lulz" because you aren't good enough to do anything else.

ongoing internet concept, saying X point is X is used for effect.
you didn't use the suffix appropriately, I corrected you.

Explain to me how the suffix was used incorrectly.
I took a course on logic at Florida State, and the professor used the word "fallaciousity" quite often. Not to say that, "Oh, because he did it, it must be right!" But more-so that it's an acceptable use of the -ity suffix, considering it's meaning and etymology.
I fail to see why this is even up for debate, if it's not enough already that I have to work my way through your haze of spelling errors, capitalization and general crimes against the English language.

My suffix was incorrectly used, because your only source of knowledge is a Google search engine.
I think I just lost all interest in talking to you.
(Before you go on to state the omnipotent power of Google, it's vastness and impact on the internet; take a few courses on Etymology, Literature, and even basic grammar.)
Until then, I'm done wasting my time talking to an illiterate. Take care (or don't).

if you do in fact prove me wrong(and actually prove me wrong, not just tell me I am wrong because you "say so") I will announce you to be the smartest *** I know, so do it.
I want you to do this for me.

Why aren't you gung-ho about banning eating, cell phones, texting, sexing, dogs, alcohol, and prescription pills outside of driving? Ok, then why are you so stressed about marijuana outside of driving?
Yes, because complete loss of perception and hallucination is the same thing as eating in your car.
The stupidity in this thread is astounding.
Complete loss of perception and hallucination?
Ok, now I get it, I can't win this argument. The people who argue against it are usually just uneducated and think that this "drug" is on par with LSD, shrooms, or DXM. There's really no point in arguing anymore.
No one claimed it was on par with the other listed substances, it's common knowledge that THC is a hallucinogenic. Please, before you try and state lack of education, educate yourself first.
While this is true it is extremely far fetched to imply that people wouldn't be able to function normally because they'll be hallucinating. THC's hallucinatory effects are extremely mild and typically manifest as a slight auditory distortion (if at all) rather than visual hallucinations.

Therefore, making everything you know second hand.
first hand trumps second hand
can't make a valid point without sufficient data.
opinion and inferred "common sense"(i put this in quotations to denote the questionable nature of your common sense) can only go so far when responded with hard facts.

Lol, yes I went too long without eating today so my head is a little loopy. I quickly came to my senses after a few bites and realized my last post just needed to go.

I get that too sometimes.
Can't think coherently when I don't eat, puts me into a bit of a manic frenzy when testosterone jumps in and starts smacking me in the face with raaaage.

I don't care much to start an argument on pro's rather I'd like to hear the opinion of people who can be against it and then we start from there. Because, personally, after reviewing the subject widely, I can't imagine that anyone would be against it for a logical reason in a world where alcohol is legal, unless, they're going to also argue it should be as well, along with maybe, cigarettes.
