Explain?

You keep saying that, but you have yet to explain why?

If smoking weed in front of kids is bad because its a drug and it might influence them to use it themselves, then why are other drugs OK?
Other drugs as in legal ones or illegal ones?

Are you talking about prescription medicine? My issue is with smoking around kids for health reasons and it makes it worse when the child knows it's illegal. It sends a message to them. I'm not saying weed should be illegal but it is.

So is it a valid comparison in Colorado?

I think, it's more of the idea of smoking that's bad, not the actual substance that's being smoked.

Can someone explain why it's a false equivalence?

you can stop trynna play me like i'm one of these dudes that don't smoke. good kush and a cup of joe do not provide the same after effect. plus, it's not like you're just eating edibles and vaporizing weed. you're rolling swishers made of tobacco, which still provides dangerous second hand smoke. finally, as much as i like weed. i can easily admit smoking it makes one content w/mediocrity. a lot of us use it as a form of escape from reality or a coping mechanisms for stress. you can bring up how people do the same with beer/liquor, and i'll just agree with you. does that i mean i think people shouldn't drink around their kids? eh, my parents gave me liquor the first time i asked -- and that was the last time i asked.

I went to an old friends house to show her my son and she pulls a blunt out the ashtray like, you wanna smoke. I was like

MY SON!?!?!!??!!!!?!! :mindblown:

Shes like :ohhh:

:snoop:
Lol, people don't have any common sense. I feel like especially black kids, we're like 18 at 8, because of some things not being filtered, so we don't need out kids to be around weed smoke unless we're planning on them being potheads.

Have not tried to play you as anything. It's a scientific fact that caffeine is a much stronger and dangerous drug than thc. And people use caffeine for the same reasons to escape/deal with stress. The second hand smoke argument is overblown when talking about weed. For one, you don't have to use a tobacco based shell. For two even if you do smoking a couple blunts a day is not the same as filling your home with constant cigaret smoke.

Like I said you shouldn't smoke around kids period! Damn every time I go back and fourth with someone on this website they tend to only acknowledge one thing I said and not the other.

Well I think people are placing weed smoke and cigaret smoke in the same bag. They are not.

For one you just don't smoke as much weed as you would cigarets. The smoke doesn't just sit thick in the room as it does with someone who smokes cigarets. For two the health risks are just much lower

:beli:

stronger how? both produce completely opposite effects. also, who the hell is drinking caffeine as a form of escapism? most people i know that drink a cup of coffee are doing it wake up/get through their work day. i aint never heard no nikkas say something like "man, baby momma stressin me. got these bills due, i think imma brew me a cup of coffee" come on now. i also never heard of nikkas getting robbed over some coffee beans. never heard someone complain bout how they fukked up they money cus they bought too much coffee.


and i brought up the swishers because that's how YOU choose to smoke. i could see if we're talking about edibles and vaporizing, or even bongs -- but you fill the house w/blunt smoke. you can try to lessen the second hand smoke damage it's causing to your kids, but you are causing it.
