HiJohn! I have had a number of contacts with the drug culture. My sister at one time used drugs, I worked in the projects as a social worker where there is a LOT of drug use, I worked in the car crash repair industry where the drug accident repairs were made, I have had several neighbors in and out of rehab all their lives and most recently I have attempted to treat patients for drug addiction in a clinic setting. My conclusion is that we really, really do NOT want to EVER approve of drug use, even the so-called harmless ones. All the pot-heads say pot is non-addicting, doesn't affect judgment, coordination and so on. Well, it does too affect judgment and coordination and it just might be more addicting than they think. A good number of them can't quit! In the body shop the marijuana wrecks were always far worse than the alcohol wrecks. The pot user THINKS he/she is OK and THINKS it is OK to go 100 mph through traffic, red lights and so on. I say one positive drug test and no driving ever again. Possession might as well get you 10 years PLUS a huge fine that HAS TO be paid before you ever get out, no matter how long you serve. Make it tough enough and they will stop. -- Regards, Pete http://pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
