So if pot was illegal then the person would not have been killed? :/

 

And it's very doubtful that the pot played any role in the killing at all.

 

Pot is cool. When you smoke it you get to hang with the cool kids. No way it could have been responsible for poor driving. OMG grow up.

 

Dude the post I made a while back clearly showed legalization's connections to bad driving. You blame hamburgers and coffee, which can also create bad driving results but not due to altered states. They are separate issues but try not being a typical pot head in denial about its impacts. Impact #1 is denial about its impacts. The whole premise of this thread is pot worship for Pete's sake.

 

Would this individual have been killed if one factor was changed? You know that can't be answered for pot, booze, coffee, hamburgers, texting or anything else because it is an individual case. Maybe some loser pothead drove a guy off the road once and that prevented him from getting home where he would have been hit by a bolt of lightning in his driveway and killed. Does that mean people should only drive while they're stoned?

clearly? 3% is a statistical error at best. And a very biased source. I don't worship pot at all. But also am against criminalization. You make it sound dangerous to the public. I showed you something way more dangerous and said if you want to save lives stop people from eating and drink g while driving, but you don't care. You'd rather arrest people for a harmless smoke.

 

 

Also, legalization would save a lot of lives in the black market and hurt organized crime. I'm all for that

Already exists. Next....

 

Morning Chef. It's not enforced then

You don't worship pot but it can do no wrong and everyone is biased against it. Got it.

You know what's an even worse idea? Killing people.

Texas authorities charge 24-year-old woman for the deaths of her two children found inside a hot car last month outside the family's home

 

WEATHERFORD, Texas (AP) — Texas authorities say a 24-year-old woman has been charged in the deaths of her two children who were found inside a hot car last month outside the family's home.

Deputies in Parker County in North Texas say Cynthia Marie Randolph initially said her 2-year-old daughter and 16-month-old son locked themselves in the car, but acknowledged to investigators on Friday that she did so on May 26 to teach her daughter a lesson after she found the two playing in the vehicle. Temperatures reached the mid-90s that day.

Randolph faces two first-degree felony counts of injury to a child causing serious bodily injury.

Authorities say she told them she left the children in the car, smoked marijuana and went to sleep.

Pot heads are idiots but this woman seems to have problems beyond pot and I really don't have too many more words for this type of thing.

Oh you are probably very wrong there.

I highly doubt it. pun intended.

The study, published in The Lancet Psychiatry journal, looked at data from surveys of over a million teens on marijuana use between 1991 and 2014. The researchers, led by Dr. Deborah Hasin, a professor of epidemiology at Columbia University Medical Center, found that although more teens did use marijuana in 21 of the states where medical marijuana laws were approved, the rate of use did not increase after the laws were passed.

So it's pot's fault she killed her kids?? Wow! Stunningly silly argument if that is what you are saying

Clearly the women had issues which inexcusably cost her kids their lives. Clearly these issues went way beyond pot. I'm sure you're not saying that getting stoned and falling asleep could have help prevent this.

But I get your point, had she only locked the kids in the car when it was over 95 degrees and not smoked pot this all would have turned out fine :/

Well it was certainly an unspeakably horrible thing to do and a bad idea under any and all circumstances for any amount of time. Do you think being stoned and asleep prevented her from being able to unlock a car and open the door or do you think being stoned and asleep improved the chances of her letting them out?

She shouldn't have done such an evil thing at all to start with

so what excuse is there for the many other patent(s) who have done the same while not being stoned?

 

Its tragic . Lets not go all Refer Madness and put the onus on pot.

 

 

Jul 20, 2015 - Two adults said they had left the child in the car for only four minutes, according to a police statement.

Police: Father was 'sexting' as son was dying in hot car - Georgia

 

Harris was convicted for the murder of his 22-month-old son, Cooper, who died after sitting for hours in the back of his father's SUV.

http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/hot-cars-and-kids/florida-fireman-charged-after-son-dies-after-being-left-hot-n646106

 

 

A Florida fireman was arrested and charged with aggravated manslaughter in the death of his 23-month-old son who was left in a truck for eight hours Friday.

 

Troy Whitaker, 41, told authorities that he thought he had dropped his son, Lawson, off at daycare Friday morning after bringing his 5-year-old daughter to school.

 

Friday's incident marks the 29th hot car-related death of a child this year, according to KidsAndCars.org. The child safety advocacy group said four of those incidents occurred in Florida

 

 

On average, 37 children die from heat-related deaths after being trapped inside vehicles. Even the best of parents or caregivers can unknowingly leave a sleeping baby in a car; and the end result can be injury or even death.

She smoked pot, which made her feel loopy & then fell asleep. Oops! :-(

Correct, and by far the most important point.

 

Had she not fallen asleep in a pot induced stupor, maybe she would have let them out. Of course this is not to say she wouldn't have ended up doing more horrible things in the future, pot or no pot. She would have.

1. None.

 

2. I never said the pot was the initial cause. I just said it didn't help that she got sucked into her addiction and then fell asleep. She sounds like a horrible person to begin with so even if she didn't have to get her fix at that particular time, I'm sure she would have done more horrible things to those poor kids at some point. And the sexting didn't help the other kid did it? But nobody is in this thread defending all things sexting and absolving sexting from any blame for anything ever. And they shouldn't be. And they also shouldn't be here objecting to the notion that pot has negative impacts. But here they are not only objecting, but doubling down on its disease curing miracles.
