What the… What I’m asking is if you think our school bus drivers would be safer if they were high on their route.

No, I admit that people who are really stoned are less likely to _want_to drive. The emprical data (which remains undisputed) does not show that they are actuially any more dangerous than un-stoned people if they do drive. Calling me a retard doesn’t refute the scientific facts.

Logic, reason, and the facts are clearly lost on you at this point, so my only reasonable response is **VRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH**.

Yeah, its mostly Dio I meant (though I suspect there is a slight bit o pothead denial from other tokers regarding driving and other things).

There is more wisdom in a single episode of The Simpsons than there is in the entire Encyclopedia Britannica. FACT!

The data seems to suggest that, but I think the difference is probably too marginal to be significant. You asked if we “should insist” that they smoke before their routes. We should not insist, no.

What are you talking about? All you’ve done is call people names and ignore data. If you can’t refute me on the merits, that’s your failing, not mine.

I can’t decide if this makes me want to laugh or cry.

You know, there was actually a time when I respected you as a poster.

Once again, this is a content-free post, devoid of any substantive rebuttal. You should at least try to mix in some actual arguments with the _ad hominems_ once in a while.

**Diogenes** is now urging another poster to use “actual arguments”? Oh man, this is rich. It’d be funny if it weren’t so pathetic.

People also get too impaired to drive on prescription drugs (even taken as prescribed, not abused). Just thought I’d throw that out there. 🙂

Strength, sister. I went through this too. It’s liberating, once you make it through. You’re just a beautiful phoenix, rising from the ashes of **Dio’s** credibility.

So you admit that you’ve driven while you were drunk, but people who smoke pot (even if they don’t drive while high) are somehow stupid? Mmmmkay.

(And just to head it off, no, I’m not a pothead, I’ve never even smoked pot in my life. So that dog won’t hunt.
