But then we end up with the police looking the other way on DWIs or pot possession... for "good people".
- smhenderson 10y agoDWIs or pot possession You make is sound as if you think they are equally bad. Can't say I agree. I'd much rather have a friend or loved one walking around with marijuana in their possession than have them drinking and driving. Actually I could have just stopped at drinking.
- scarecrowbob 10y agoThat wasn't my intent. I personally don't care if folks do either (if you hit someone while drunk, I think it's a much worse offense, but if you don't hit folks, then I don't think that the current laws are relaxed enough and yeesh, I think pot should be on sale in HEB). My point is that I know a lot of old white dudes who smoke pot and who will never go to jail, whereas I have lots of young, poor, brown friends who are constantly harassed. It's a lot easier to fight bad laws if they are applied even to the privileged.
- smhenderson 10y agoOh, when then we are in total agreement. Rereading your comment in context I see how I misunderstood. Thanks for clarifying...
