It should be legalized, and taxed the same as alcohol. They should be treated the same.

Big pharma doesn't agree with you.

And the private prison corporations...

It is a performance inhibitor. I can't see the NFL taking it off the banned list.

I bet 75% (or higher...pun intended) of the league already duz it.
 
Just because many in the league may do it is not a valid reason for legalizing. I am sure many do coke and amphetamines too. I don't want Pats players to be able to legally take a performance inhibitor. Many teams have rules on alcohol consumption for this reason. Performance is effected.

You're right, alcohol is physically addicting and you can actually overdose on it.

Weed also leads to other more serious drug addictions.

No it doesn't.

People who suffer from a propensity to drug abuse have often have used marijuana, but marijuana doesn't "cause" use of or addiction to other substances.

Correlation and causation are not the same thing.

By the same token, how many drug addicted individuals got drunk before they got high?

If you could wave a magic wand and make it so weed never existed that would cure a grand total of zero cases of opiate addiction.

Do you really want Pats players to be able smoke weed as freely as they consume alcohol? I mean as a fan, I don't want them taking a performance inhibitor no matter how benign we all say the effects are. There are effects and it will hurt performance. That is reason enough IMO.

I will admit, I love these things...I will until the day that I die. But, living through pain almost everyday makes life suck sometimes...

That was not the question. Neither one of us know if they do or don't. The question was do you want them to be able to use it as freely as alcohol? I don't. I want the team I root for to be in the best possible condition to perform.

Welker likes his MDMA...

Ty Law...had to blame his cousin.
