How could you have such a strong opinion of something you've never done?

Why is it frivolous if the Guy was high? If I am drunk/high/overly tired and kill people I should be sued.

Oh and I said that I smoked pot in high school and quit when I grew up...

Just offer them a 99cent bag of Doritos for an extra hit of morphine.

I'm going to EMT school next tuesday (well providing my back is working by then). Will smoking a doobie before class help my grades?

What's wrong with it is that is a completely unrealistic expectation. It is a complete fantasy. Very rarely will you get an EMT that is fresh as a daisy, as the job does not promote that. What you will most likely get is someone with good training who reacts well and appropriately in life or death situations.

Have you ever been an EMT BTW? I speak from experience as a former EMT who graduated school #1 in my class, who studied under the influence of THC, and who consistently got VERY high reviews from EMT and Firefighter personnel in the field. So, I know have some experience that relates to this specific subject.

My point, whether you are against them both or not, is that you should recognize as a basic truth that THC/CBD does not effect the CNS or human behavior in nearly a profound a manner as alcohol does, and in your mind, your way of thinking, you should not equate the two to be the same.

I'm just advocating truth? Why do you hate truth?

It depends on whether the Marijuana was the cause or not. Was he running code 3 and you pulled out in front of him? Did he just smoke 5 bong bowls of KUSH in the back with his buddy? Did he have one hit off a joint? You know, this is a very specific situation, so to just say "what if I got into a wreck with an EMT who was under the influence of THC" doesn't work into a logical discussion as there are far too many variables.

Fair enough, I must've missed that. My apologies.

So if you think something it's "truth" and I think something it's crap... cool I feel the same WAY!

In this case, yes.

Anyway... I'm getting a pretty good post rate off my phone, no?

Yea that's so funny because I was about to say that even before I read this. You keep up quite well from the phone. You just using the standard keyboard?

You do realize that no matter how many signatures you get on a petition there is no way to put a referendum on a federal ballot right? Those college students in Ann Arbor are still breaking a federal law with a penalty of at least a $1,000 fine and up to a year in jail for a first offense. Second offense numbers jump to at least $2,500 and up to two years (15 days minimum). Third is at least $5,000 and up to three years (90 days minimum). Just saying.

Yep! Whenever I try to use Slide it or voice I get lots of mistakes so I just use the built in keyboard. It usually guesses what word I'm shooting for... usually.
