ChuggyNation Nothing that makes you see shit and feel shit is harmless. Remember that. It might be useful when you grow up.
As a Paramedic for 35 years, I never once attended a call where people had beat the shit out of one another, when people had been smoking weed. I attended thousands of calls where people beat the shit out of each other, when drunk. I've never met a stoned "asshole ".
I mostly agree, but I'm not gunna lie I know some guys that can still be assholes while stoned. It's not quite as bad, but they still aint gunna be very nice to you lol.
My old ex friend john jansen was just like that but I outclassed him so bad in every way physically I just kicked him out and cut him off for acting like the fool that he was and he's also autistic so I refused to beat him to a pulp cuz that's what would've happened if it escalated to violence.
Drew Tomlinson big money that's all and influence that comes with that money that's it, cigarettes and alcohol should be scheduled as class 1. no question
Benefits? There are none. The reason they are legal however is to control you by keeping you addicted, therefore forcing you to have to make money to feed your addiction. It's a viscious cycle. I used to work at a gas station and I had factory workers come in there all the time buying something that literally says "this product causes cancer" on the box. It just made me sad really.
I think marijuana should be legal but to compare how mentally impairing and physically impairing marijuana is to cigarettes is kinda silly. Especially when considering first time usage. Marijuana is a narcotic
not ruining peoples lives over a plant that has no negative effects if you're a responsible adult. his argument for "normalizing" its normalized already. 13 year olds smoke weed lmao. The fact is kids are gonna do shit REGARDLESS, of the law. Its really just up to helping parents educate their fkin kids so the next generations are more responsible and level headed overall, not just with drugs.
There hasn't been much scientific studies on marijuana because it's been illegal. The negatives haven't been studied. Does smoking pot while pregnant affect the baby? Etc etc.
@Chriz Daman details please? Im just saying alcohol is ridiculously accepted especially compared to a weed smoker. Religion and law are the main factors behind this. The economic negative of it was a factor of law.
I think that's called decriminalization buddy. Which would be fines for getting caught. People won't smoke more than they already do and they won't have to go to jail. I hate the pot army so much, it's like a fucking cult. Potheads all have some form of obvious potheadedness. If smoking crack was as mainstream then people wouldn't feel ashamed and become as delusional as Joe. All you'd have to do is reduce the bad reputation like they did with pot over the years. But the problems don't just disappear.
It's too late to make alcohol illegal. There's not much point to making Marijuana illegal. That would make it just as popular as alcohol, which wouldn't be good.
Woke up at 5 am, 5 bong loads down then walked the dogs for 2 miles, got home did 5 more loads and now I'm at work for a 12 hour shift, as I smoke my pen.
Define bong load, because damn bro, it sounds like you smoke like half a zip a day, no slighting you just seems impressive that you still work after that I would be asleep
@Badge Man If you think there isn't anything wrong with drinking you may be suffering from a serious case of denial buddy. I have multiple friends that have destroyed their lives with alcohol. Don't know anyone at the end of their rope, with having to either except it and die or face your demons and get over the fucking hurdle with pot.
It's the "Jock Mindset". they're limited by what other people are Ok with and never want to deviate from what is the most common way of thinking. I stay the hell away from limited dopes.
If you’re for both alcohol and weed being illegal, I can see and understand your position. But if you’re for alcohol but not weed, there’s no way to justify your belief.
He said the reason he doesn't want to criminilize alcohol is because it will never pass, and we already failed at that with the prohabiition. It would be a wasted effort. So that's in his defense; however, his argument for making weed illegal is still totally ignorant.
There's plenty of people who drink every day and lead extremely productive lives, working out, working and cleaning, there's a lot of people who do cocaine everyday and are way more productive than most of us running multinational companies , not a good argument for how good it bad a substance is.
As a Texan, Dan’s logic makes me question supporting him going forward. Alcohol is clearly more damaging than pot and his logic regarding policy is un-American. What happened to “the land of the free?” Wrapping people up in the criminal justice system for marijuana use is a disgrace. I say this as someone who has not smoked marijuana in 37 years. I respect his service but question what he thought he was serving. Policy?? Did we fight the revolutionary war to enable hiding behind “policy” in order to not loose a few fringe votes?
so i’m responding to this with a bong in my lap…. i understand the counterpoint to joe. he’s just concerned, in my opinion, with the lack of research and knowledge on how pot affects young people. it’s better of having strict laws to protect the kids and make it harder for adults than make it easy for everyone. i’m in my mid 20’s and i’ve been smoking for 10 years and the legality has never been a problem for getting my hands on marijuana
@@lyteyear2106 I see your point. But he's just taking the bootlicker stance imo. There's 15 states where it's legal and young adult use hasn't increased. It seems when something is legal, it almost loses its appeal to young people sort of. Part of the edginess of pot is that is was illegal. There's plenty of articles on this. Dan and people like him will never change there stance imo, but he's at least respectful of Joe's opinion. He just doesn't like it personally so he won't change his public opinion. Which happens to often. He'll even my dad in his older age, had a positive experience with pot. Something he never would've if it was still illegal in my state
Last time I got caught he literally did nothing but act like he didn't see it guess it was the end of his shift or something but he acted like I was smoking a cigarette and busted me red handed with it dead to rights. Didn't even fuckin acknowledge it.
And kids of the age around 15 getting permanent brain damage from smoking it wich will be really easy when it is legal. And if you are gonna say something like 'its there own choice' it's not because most kids of 15 would do almost anything that makes them think they are cool
lol my father who was a drunk would occasionally smoke pot and it made him so talkative even more so when he was drunk. I just think some people shouldn’t go near pot, they can’t handle themselves🤣
My dad drinks a lot now. This wasn’t always the case but for the last 15 years. He doesn’t get angry but he becomes very annoying and repeats himself a lot. There was a period of time when he also started smoking weed everyday and he basically stopped drinking and it was awesome. He was chill and relaxed but didn’t last long.
Lmao I dont think this is the pro weed argument we are going to use 2 push legal weed Btw hope all is well and u learned from the dysfunction not perpetuat it
I come from a long line of alcoholics. My dad was German. It’s tradition. I’m 23 and started drinking at 12. It almost killed me. I tried CBD on a whim at a buddies house just for shits. Then tried delta 8 and now I use marijuana full time. I quit drinking, am down 20 pounds and have never been happier.
Dan is looking at the issue backwards. Instead of "why should we legalise it' we should ask why it's illegal. You should start with all freedoms, and only have them revoked when there is good reason
Yeah. He asked what the benefits are to society if it gets legalized, rather than what are the benefits of keeping it illegal (and i see no benefit at all in prohibition)
Agents of the state are usually inconsistent for a number of reasons. If i propose to a woman, alone in the forest, "you want it in the ass or the mouth?" Is it really her choice?
I mean its been around for thousands of years - weed has gone through the forward entry that you're suggesting and it was noted to be abused and negatively affect younger users which was dans point and essentially Joe's point as well. I think they both agree that once you are mature enough to mentally handle it there really isn't an issue. Dan didn't like it and Joe does, both don't see it as much of an issue for adults. Weed just is a bit more potent to younger first-time users and doesn't have the social benefits that alcohol has which is probably why its so frowned upon recreationally.
That's weak thinking its better to solve something than wait we all know what will happen its safer than alcohol we dont have long on this earth waiting isnt a good idea
And ... for a me question follows, Can people actually handle freedom ... asking "to handle" not anything else ?! Is freedom being or felling irresponsible for your actions. But law and order at the same time disagree with feelings and personalities - which everyone pretends to behave like they don`t care … in ignorance.

Bradley Nolan you can say that about any issue it a weak argument on why weed she should be illegal and he basically said he would be ok banning alcohol
Not rly. I've had several experiences with alchohol, got very drunk, slightly drunk, or didnt even drink enough to get drunk, and didnt enjoy any of them. I love weed but it's not for everybody, just like alchohol isnt.
Not really. It sounds nonsensical because the norm is nonsensical. To the mad man everyone else is insane. We do not have due diligence on ANYTHING, it is why as a society we have sleep walked into so many problems. Just because we have never had due diligence does not mean it is nonsensical to begin now. Obviously there is the issue of freedom and appealing to the lowest common denominator etc., but we must also be weary of legitimising things that may not be in our best interest. The more you socially invest into something, the harder it will be to rebuke it. So when you make the argument about cigarettes and alcohol well you get the picture. I think comparing the use of marijuana for thousands of years to the tobacco industry is a false parallel. It is not just a policy issue, we have normalised alcohol and tobacco culturally, yes alcohol has its benefits, yes weed will have its benefits...but do we truly understand the benefits of weed in recreational terms. I think the constitution is one of America's biggest problems, people do not want to think about what makes sense, their instant reaction is blind freedom. Blind freedom = anarchy. Anarchy does not need a constitution stupid. Don't appeal to the lowest common denominator, but governments and functional members of society should not legitimise ANYTHING that is counterproductive. Even if it is legal, we need to shape the discourse..the same way a glass of red wine may be good for you, but binge drinking clearly isn't, these are things we need to understand. We cannot have a free for all.

There is a difference between freedom and anarchy. Why have the United States of America if you want anarchy? A country does not exist just so you have colourful flags for your bumper stickers. If you do not like the idea of order, then there is no point having countries.
Although I agree with marijuana being legalized (being illegal didn't stop us in CA). Smoking before bed and watching South Park reruns on CC is a habit of mine. Keeps me calm (well, at least till I gotta find something else to watch because I can't stand Trevor Noah.) To say that everyone wants it so therefore it should be legalized sounds a little farfetched. If thats the argument should we legalize opiods for rec use? What about cocaine? I know a lot of people who smoke. Unfortunately I know a lot more addicted to the other drugs I mentioned.
@@travisfrench147 Actually heard about this in college. For what I remember (stoned college days) some country has legalized almost everything.

@@basketcase6999 and we can clearly see weed isn't possible to ban either. Unlike alcohol it's not addictive and legalizing it doesn't even increase use. Only thing the "war on drugs" does is ruin millions of lives putting people in prison who aren't real criminals and costs billions of taxpayer dollars all for no reason.
Delos What I meant was that people (as in a majority of the population) won’t vote for a ban on alcohol. People have and will vote against legalising recreational marijuana in some areas. Also, I highly doubt that legalisation would not increase use - if it’s legal, more people will be willing to “try” it at least, and I would imagine people would be more likely to use it in public and whatever.
He said he "didn't like it" in the beginning of the video, which to me implies that he's done it and didn't like the effects, which does happen sometimes.
I don’t really think there needs to be any “benefits” shown or whatever aside from the fact that alcohol is legal and can kill you, even though marijuana can be 100% safely consumed
What is the medicinal value of alcohol? Why is alcohol ok for recreational use but marijuana isn't? Seems pretty consistent that non users don't see the value...hmmmm....
Well, obviously alcohol is an amazing disinfectant in the medical world. But as far as recreational alcohol made for consumption the only actual reason that it is legal while things like marijuana is not simply and not so simply has to do with a lot of politics, a lot of money, controlling multiple industries, corruption, crime, police, prison, etc etc etc.

So far good discussion. One thing I wanted to add. I served 1.5 years in state prison and 1.5 years on felony parole/ probation for les than three ounces of weed.

What are the recreational benefits of cigarettes? I'd love to know why they're legal if that's the argument.

Jmpsthrufyre * 665 years ago i wouldn’t say class 1 they aren’t heroin
Drew Tomlinson you have a bright future ahead of you
Benefits? There are none. The reason they are legal however is to control you by keeping you addicted, therefore forcing you to have to make money to feed your addiction. It's a viscious cycle. I used to work at a gas station and I had factory workers come in there all the time buying something that literally says "this product causes cancer" on the box. It just made me sad really.
I think marijuana should be legal but to compare how mentally impairing and physically impairing marijuana is to cigarettes is kinda silly. Especially when considering first time usage. Marijuana is a narcotic
Recreation benefits... Not putting people in jail for no real reason.
They can’t extort people without jail and probation
Yeah the federal government could *at least* legalize medical marijuana and decriminalize recreational.

Why legalize? To take it off the black market and keep people out of jail for something significantly less harmful than alcohol.
Parents should stop smoking once they have children though. You don't see that, women rarely stop smoking when they get pregnant. We've all seen it.
T Destroyer and hats not very true actually
@@pdubzpyro I've never seen a woman quit cigarettes or weed while pregnant, and hubby/boyfriend doesn't care either. Sure, some do, but it's rare.

I hate the pot army so much, it's like a fucking cult. Potheads all have some form of obvious potheadedness.

As a Texan, Dan’s logic makes me question supporting him going forward. Alcohol is clearly more damaging than pot and his logic regarding policy is un-American. What happened to “the land of the free?” Wrapping people up in the criminal justice system for marijuana use is a disgrace. I say this as someone who has not smoked marijuana in 37 years. I respect his service but question what he thought he was serving. Policy?? Did we fight the revolutionary war to enable hiding behind “policy” in order to not loose a few fringe votes?
well said my man
Thank you! They don’t want Marijuana legalized but can’t give a logical reason why. The key word being “logical”
He's a person that got butt hurt over a comedian making jokes. This guy is a loser.
so i’m responding to this with a bong in my lap…. i understand the counterpoint to joe. he’s just concerned, in my opinion, with the lack of research and knowledge on how pot affects young people. it’s better of having strict laws to protect the kids and make it harder for adults than make it easy for everyone. i’m in my mid 20’s and i’ve been smoking for 10 years and the legality has never been a problem for getting my hands on marijuana
@@lyteyear2106 I see your point. But he's just taking the bootlicker stance imo. There's 15 states where it's legal and young adult use hasn't increased. It seems when something is legal, it almost loses its appeal to young people sort of. Part of the edginess of pot is that is was illegal. There's plenty of articles on this. Dan and people like him will never change there stance imo, but he's at least respectful of Joe's opinion. He just doesn't like it personally so he won't change his public opinion. Which happens to often. He'll even my dad in his older age, had a positive experience with pot. Something he never would've if it was still illegal in my state
The most dangerous thing about weed is getting caught with it
Last time I got caught he literally did nothing but act like he didn't see it guess it was the end of his shift or something but he acted like I was smoking a cigarette and busted me red handed with it dead to rights. Didn't even fuckin acknowledge it.
The most dangerous thing about weed is your lack of knowledge on it
And kids of the age around 15 getting permanent brain damage from smoking it wich will be really easy when it is legal. And if you are gonna say something like 'its there own choice' it's not because most kids of 15 would do almost anything that makes them think they are cool
@@Bot-xp6kl you’re delusional.
Growing up in with two alcoholics as parents, the best memories I have with them were when they would smoke pot, it always stopped the yelling.

I wish my dad smoked instead of drinking when i was a kid.
lol my father who was a drunk would occasionally smoke pot and it made him so talkative even more so when he was drunk. I just think some people shouldn’t go near pot, they can’t handle themselves🤣
My dad drinks a lot now. This wasn’t always the case but for the last 15 years. He doesn’t get angry but he becomes very annoying and repeats himself a lot.
There was a period of time when he also started smoking weed everyday and he basically stopped drinking and it was awesome. He was chill and relaxed but didn’t last long.
Lmao I dont think this is the pro weed argument we are going to use 2 push legal weed
Btw hope all is well and u learned from the dysfunction not perpetuat it

high people want no hassle lol
I come from a long line of alcoholics. My dad was German. It’s tradition. I’m 23 and started drinking at 12. It almost killed me. I tried CBD on a whim at a buddies house just for shits. Then tried delta 8 and now I use marijuana full time. I quit drinking, am down 20 pounds and have never been happier.
Dan is looking at the issue backwards. Instead of "why should we legalise it' we should ask why it's illegal. You should start with all freedoms, and only have them revoked when there is good reason
Yeah. He asked what the benefits are to society if it gets legalized, rather than what are the benefits of keeping it illegal (and i see no benefit at all in prohibition)
Agents of the state are usually inconsistent for a number of reasons. If i propose to a woman, alone in the forest, "you want it in the ass or the mouth?" Is it really her choice?
Very well stated
I mean its been around for thousands of years - weed has gone through the forward entry that you're suggesting and it was noted to be abused and negatively affect younger users which was dans point and essentially Joe's point as well. I think they both agree that once you are mature enough to mentally handle it there really isn't an issue. Dan didn't like it and Joe does, both don't see it as much of an issue for adults. Weed just is a bit more potent to younger first-time users and doesn't have the social benefits that alcohol has which is probably why its so frowned upon recreationally.

Some things do need to be solved right away, while other things don't.
Policy making was designed to be a slow processes. You don't want to legislate a problem then deal with the repercussions as they come.
That's weak thinking its better to solve something than wait we all know what will happen its safer than alcohol we dont have long on this earth waiting isnt a good idea

And ... for a me question follows, Can people actually handle freedom ... asking "to handle" not anything else ?! Is freedom being or felling irresponsible for your actions.

In order to be legal we need to prove its "recreational benefits"... What a nonsensical premise.
In the words of a brave shirtless Celtic man with a sword “FREEDOM!”
Not really. It sounds nonsensical because the norm is nonsensical. To the mad man everyone else is insane. We do not have due diligence on ANYTHING, it is why as a society we have sleep walked into so many problems. Just because we have never had due diligence does not mean it is nonsensical to begin now.
Obviously there is the issue of freedom and appealing to the lowest common denominator etc., but we must also be weary of legitimising things that may not be in our best interest. The more you socially invest into something, the harder it will be to rebuke it. So when you make the argument about cigarettes and alcohol well you get the picture. I think comparing the use of marijuana for thousands of years to the tobacco industry is a false parallel. It is not just a policy issue, we have normalised alcohol and tobacco culturally, yes alcohol has its benefits, yes weed will have its benefits...but do we truly understand the benefits of weed in recreational terms.
I think the constitution is one of America's biggest problems, people do not want to think about what makes sense, their instant reaction is blind freedom. Blind freedom = anarchy. Anarchy does not need a constitution stupid.
Don't appeal to the lowest common denominator, but governments and functional members of society should not legitimise ANYTHING that is counterproductive. Even if it is legal, we need to shape the discourse..the same way a glass of red wine may be good for you, but binge drinking clearly isn't, these are things we need to understand. We cannot have a free for all.

Delos What I meant was that people (as in a majority of the population) won’t vote for a ban on alcohol. People have and will vote against legalising recreational marijuana in some areas.

So far good discussion.
One thing I wanted to add.
I served 1.5 years in state prison and 1.5 years on felony parole/ probation for les than three ounces of weed.
So now I'm a felon because of weed and have been one since 2016. Yes I broke the laws in my own community but just seems like prison for weed is a bit over kill.
And I know I'm not the only one that has had the same type of thing happen.
Also I still smoke weed I have a full time job I'm a concrete finisher. So I like to enjoy weed to relax at the end of the day and get rid of some of the aches and pains
Now that it is legal it seems really crazy to keep people in prison and to keep those criminal records.

I'm 41. Marijuana has been normalised for teenagers since before I was a teenager. Not a valid argument

Here’s a pro for society: people will stop going to prison for marijuana possession. That’s all that needed to be said.
Yeah, because there's so many people doing years in prison for having a dime bag.
Potheads and Democrats love to push that bullshit narrative.
Nobody is going to prison for getting a bag of marijuana. Now, if you are carrying large somes like my friend did and got busted, you'll sit a day or two in county and usually they'll just put your ass on probation and rehab. No judge worth his salt is sending a user to prison. Now if you are selling, and my cousin got busted, you can face much larger charges but he got lucky. I don't know what specifically happened since he lives in NY but he got a slap on the wrist. Anyone who is in prison for marijuana is probably a seller and probably selling for a gang.
Argy most people that go to prison for selling pot usually have other felonies tied to it, like illegal hand guns.

He is not arguing alcohol over marijuana. He saying, we missed on alcohol, when we legalized it and you cannot put the cat back in the bag. If we legalize marijuana, we need to do it right and not like we did with alcohol. You should realize, when changing policy, it's a three to five year process for the federal government. Once you fund that change, if you are wrong, it's three to five years before you can fix it and millions lost.

alcohol has been destroying communities since antiquity. egyptians, babylonians, assyrians all had prohibition laws at some point. and then america's prohibition gave rise to the mafia. case in point, humans have been wanting to get fucked up since time immemorial and it just so happens that tobacco and alcohol are legal

@@Jackass_Gamer not just that. The hippies, Mexicans and blacks used it so that played a huge factor in it's criminalization and demonization.
Other than the medical use alcohol, it does nothing but harm. The majority of homeless almost all have severe alcoholism.

@sabir alam yes but in the 1920's they were called hippies and seen as undesirables to society, oh and "liberal". It's kind of sad really that people don't know the history behind cannabis prohibition.
@sabir alam. He's talking more about back when the prohibition on Marijuana really kicked off around 1920-30's when it was literally thought of, by some adults at least, as a gateway to poverty seeing as how black people and Hispanic people happened to be using it more back then

"I'm personally not opposed, but legislatively I feel different." Is just another way to say that he's willing to make laws that are counter to what he actually believes.

If it's up to the states, then it shouldn't be something illegal at the federal level, so he should be in favor of federal legalization. And the "leave it to the states" argument doesn't change the fact that you nor anyone else should have a say in what I put in my own body. He's a representative elected to change national legislation. He should put his money where his mouth is if it's "up to the states".
b thustra did he say that he wants the Feds to enforce drug laws within individual states?
@@nathanielanger3941 Well I would assume that he would want the federal laws enforced. There should be no word of marijuana anywhere in federal law, if you really want it left up to the states, but it isn't the case. It should be legal until states decide that it shouldn't be, but that isn't the case either. The default "American" position is that we will send you to prison for smoking weed, but we have some rando "cool parent" states making exceptions. That isn't letting states decide. It's doing something as stupid as a Prohibition2.0 on the part of the feds, then making the states be forced to make workarounds for it. Imagine if it were STILL federally illegal to drink alcohol, and we had to leave it up to the states to see who could drink?
