Given all the damned beer cans and beer bottles all along the sides of the roads around here, I'd outlaw beer in a heartbeat! Alchohal drinkers are by for the worst litterers and it just makes me sick to look at all their trash everywhere!
Plus with all the beer bottles and cans people are throwing out their vehicle windows as they drive down the road, do you really think they're driving sober? Somehow, I seriously doubt it!
At least with the Cannabis there wouldn't be so much littering going on. I'll give it that at least!
Johnnyfreebooter: I guess you are right...not too many airline pilots is my hope, non the less!
Peace man...x
Your Titanic post did make me smile...but this one did not. My father is a retired pilot, and alcohol is legal, but they're not allowed to drink for a certain amount of hours before flying, or while flying. Any pilot that would get high too soon before flying a plane already does, or gets drunk before doing so now instead anyway. Trust me, those who do get caught and lose their jobs, thankfully.

rizlared: No one is suggesting that you should go to work or pilot a plane directly after smoking a joint, any more than one would suggest flying a 777 after a stiff G&T. As for employing a dope head, I can assure you that managing someone with a drink problem is far far worse.
Too true riz.
Without going into too much detail, alcohol and drink problems have cost my business many thousands of pounds over the past few years.

When i was in management, i lost count of the number of times someone did not come into because of a hangover.
rizlared: According to a government official LSD is less harmful than alcohol, cannabis is less harmful than tobacco, so should we reclassify drugs? List them by their harmful properties rather than by the revenue the governments can extort from users.

Since his remarks, the government's chief drug advisor has been sacked.
