Yep, the key word in your response is LEGAL. If and when marijuana becomes legal, then the discussion goes away. What I find to be humorous is that the entire liberal generation is going out of their way to make tobacco cigarettes illegal and immoral, but inhaling the smoke from a blunt is something to be honored and glorified.I never saw the drunks remember they were puking from the top bunk onto the lower ones, but then again, drinking was legal so I didn't feel they were being a bad person just disgusting.
This is 2021 and the media no longer reports facts in balance. They report facts that fit narratives (aka propaganda). It is true of politics. It is true of social issues and things... like UT football.While I agree they should exercise extreme caution due to that... its 2021. This shouldn't be a news story IF the only thing that happened was he was just caught with a little weed on him.
My Goodness...here goes another LEO on their moral high horse. I swear, I see more cops making a damn fuss about reefer than the medical community. What sort of information are they teaching LEOs that is so vastly different than most doctors?
He lasted a long time. I think age probably had more to do with it than marijuana.

Everything just sucks these days.This is 2021 and the media no longer reports facts in balance. They report facts that fit narratives (aka propaganda). It is true of politics. It is true of social issues and things... like UT football.
The kid was stupid. KPD seems to be a bit overzealous. And you are absolutely right... negativity around Vol football is a narrative that the Knoxville press loves.
He would’ve got a ticket for open container or arrested for DUI just like he got a ticket for marijuana bc it was determined he wasn’t highWell, after the years of watching the smoke from tobacco be honored and glorified with billboards, commercials, and pushed as a product in movies and television. Even so far as to push the product onto kids in the form of candy cigarettes and animated characters.
But let's turn this and every discussion into liberal vs conservative.
You're correct, weed isn't legal. That was the point, if he had been driving around with open containers drinking, he would have just gotten some extra workouts for being under age, at least until he drunk drove into somebody and killed them, then maybe he would have been dismissed for poor judgement.
The real point is, it doesn't matter legal or illegal. The guy didn't make good choices before and showed an inability to learn.
that zeal is wel documented and has led to some instances of entrapment. Now, I am no attorney, so, no idea if that fits here.This is 2021 and the media no longer reports facts in balance.
