    I said I wouldn't comment any more on the subject, but I will answer you for clarity (I didn't refuse to answer, I only pointed out that I didn't think it would change your opinion). We (law enforcement) know for a fact what someone is under the influence of when they are in an accident. We HAVE TO determine what the substance was that contributed. If it is alcohol it can be identified through blood, breath, or urine. If it is weed it is determined through their urine. Urine is collected and sent to a state lab where it is identified. In 22 years I have seen enough accidents caused by weed and weed alone to safely say you are not accurately describing the affects of marijuana. I never said a "myriad of cases", and I only used "wrapped around a telephone pole" to illustrate an example of something I have seen. I never put a number to it. That is you trying to exaggerate for affect. If that isn't good enough then I will use your own words to help you. You said earlier that most people under the influence of marijuana drive like little old ladies. It is not against the law to drive like a little old lady. It is against the law in every state to drive impaired whether it be alcohol, drugs, or any combination of the two. I hope this satisfies you!

    This is my problem too! Unfortunately, on rare occasions I see something non football related that I can't help but comment on. I have to remember that the odds of me changing someone's mind are slim and that no off topic subject brought up is worth a back and forth with someone on the internet (sometimes it is funny though). I need to remember I get on here for entertainment, football knowledge, and the members I enjoy and stick to that. *TTF I promise I will try to do better* Now I will go say 5 Hail Marys and 5 Our Fathers!

    I'm honored that my posts are riveting enough for someone to ignore me. I'm actually a boring, average, mostly-optimistic guy in real life. :lolol:

    I am against weed. 2 of my brothers smoke it daily, psychological and physiological dependence. if family has history of mental issues, believe me weed makes it worse. They smoke constantly, read up on conspiracy theories and condition the brain. They now think everyone/everything is against them and very irritable without weed.

    Also had 2 friends crash because of it. Fell asleep at the wheel.

    Then again I know a whole bunch of productive people that do it, I just don't want to hear about their philosophy on life now lol.

    I understand your objection to weed. But alcohol is a lot worse in the long run and it's been legal since the 30's...LOL. Any recreational drug is going to have more negatives than positives... that's the nature of the beast. I'd rather people be out driving stoned on weed.... than drunk on alcohol or texting while driving. It's silly that marijuana is schedule 1... while Oxycontin, Hydrocodone and Fentanyl continue to KILL thousands of more people than marijuana could ever dream of, but yet these opioid drugs are accepted in our society because they are prescribed by a doctor while big pharma makes big bucks. :facepalm:

    oh most definitely. Alcohol is a killer. You don't get weed rage, deathly weed withdrawals, severely impaired driving on weed. I do know the oil is beneficial too.

    Just providing anecdotal experiences with family members. aunts/uncles on my moms side smoke, my uncles on my dad side smokes and my brothers. Only 1 uncle that smokes has his head on straight, but his whole family is mentally messed up lol.

    A lot of you seem to not get that a lot of messed up people bake, but it isn't the baking that makes them messed up. You haven't even considered that.

    I'm done with this subject. No one learned a thing.

    I'm really surprised this went on for so long, but I guess I shouldn't be.

    You clearly didn't. You'd prefer to stick your head in the sand rather than learn that driving while stoned is dangerous as well as illegal.

    I have no problem with people smoking marijuana. I don't, but I don't care if others do so as long as they don't endanger others. One way they do endanger others is by driving while stoned.

    I'm not sure there was much to learn. Pretty much everybody else understand that driving while stoned is a bad idea. It's not quite as dangerous as driving drunk, but it absolutely causes accidents.

    Back to the OP, it appears the suspension talk may have been inaccurate. Apparently he has not failed a test and has not missed a test.

    Doobie doobie do.....

    But, according to one writer, it wasn’t “fake news”.

    Being baked actually makes most drivers drive safer.

    The initial reports were false to Bryant failing or not showing up for a urine test. But, I could see him falling back into that situation ... without, a strong support group
