Re:Studies Link Marijuana Legalization to Positive Public He... by toomuchtodo on Thursday March 16, 2023 @10:18AM (#35182312)
I don’t condone driving while high in the slightest but we allow rampant alcohol consumption leading to substantial annual DUI accidents and deaths. Perhaps let’s consider more roadway enforcement while also appreciating the benefits of non-pharmaceutical therapy. And if you’re just using it at home for fun, that’s fine too, just don’t drive after (people are going to use it whether it’s legal or not of course).

There is some data (although admittedly inconclusive) that opioid use and deaths decline in jurisdictions where marijuana is legalized, an important point to consider.

TLDR some medication is better than others, don’t drive under the influence regardless. “In God We Trust, all others bring data” as the saying goes.
