It's true. You try to find one single example of a car accident
attributed conclusively to cannabis when alcohol was also not a
factor. Just one. You can't because it never happened.

Do you have a reading comprehension problem? I read John's post and
no where did John state that people should be allowed to drive "as
crazy as you want".

John's statement was merely expressing opposition to a law that
allowed a government to arrest a person who as driving NORMALLY and
NOT under the influence of any drugs.

Do you think a person should be arrested for driving a week after
having a a few beers?

You need to re-examine your thinking.
If there is no impaired driving evident why would you put people in
prison?

It does indeed look as though the neocon administrations are
attempting to criminalize everyone.
You too.
