WVU Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 "Just about 0%?" Love how you are now pulling statistics out of the air. People use drugs to cope with things for a reason. Drugs can dull things and make things less painful. Good Lord. Drugs 101.https://www.thefix.com/content/study-says-pot-smokers-use-cope-negative-emotionshttp://www.marijuana.com/community/threads/smoking-and-dealing-with-death.282176/Let's remember how casually this was thrown out. I don't know why you're making such a big deal about this. i'm not judging her at all. I was under the influence of oxy when mom died. Just saying that might help explain it. You are the one who is ridiculous in this case.In any case, the better discussion is that about racial profiling, not whether or not fiancé was smoking pot. So I'm done arguing this and unless you have any compelling argument other than "that's ridiculous."Surrender noted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milwaukee mike Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Huh? White 15.3% 7 or more timesBlack 18.3% 7 or more times What's the polls margin for error? 3%? so i show stats that prove that on average blacks smoke more pot than whites, and you then argue that it's within a made up margin of error keep in mind california is a legal marijuna state, and i gave you a break by showing that... but since you want to continue to be a dumbass, here's wisconsin, i wonder if the margin of error can explain 33% to 18% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAG Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 I thought black people were just worse drivers though? huh? I didn't say that. I posed a question. You obviously don't know me. Maybe when I throw out a "couldn't it be that?" comment it reads like I am supporting that argument. However if that ws the case, if I believed it or knew that, I would have stated it as fact. Maybe it's just difficult to tell that I'm not being snarky, but sincere, in my question.I try to look at everything from every angle. I would rather believe that blacks are just bad drivers, thenthan cops are just bad people. Like I would like to believe that you are just misinterpreting the tone of my posts, then intentionally being snarky to me for no reason.

Teddy kgb Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 OT: best liberal line I've heard over and over my whole life.... White guy says anything thought to be offensive by a lib when referring to Blacks being angry and aggressive... Lib response is always...lets see you say that to their face... Therefore proving White guys point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timely Hitting Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 so i show stats that prove that on average blacks smoke more pot than whites, and you then argue that it's within a made up margin of error keep in mind california is a legal marijuna state, and i gave you a break by showing that... but since you want to continue to be a dumbass, here's wisconsin, i wonder if the margin of error can explain 33% to 18% http://images.slideplayer.com/7/1641683/slides/slide_41.jpgUh, no Mike. you made this statement: the charts are skewed a white guy that smokes pot once at a party counts the same as a black person that smoked it 365 days a year yes the white 20 year old is as likely to use marijuana in a year, but on average he will smoke a lot less and possess it a lot less often and 3% isn't "a lot less often." Your statement was wrong. They are nearly equal in usage. Are you also arguing that polls like this don't have margins for error? I was giving you the benefit of the doubt saying it was 3%. What is wrong with bigots and their inability to admit they were wrong? Now you've resorted to using Wisconsin high school kids as a barometer with a poll that shows a margin of error of 10%.

That based on the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. What makes you a bigot is your consistent derogatory comments toward people of color and your made up facts to discredit them.

Jimmy Hoffa Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 I replayed the video again. Lavish says, "They shot his arm off". Clearly the video shows his arm is still connected to his body.

I guess, based on Wisconsin, the country is 5.7% black. Also, LOL at 27% of whites have ever tried Marijuana in Wisconsin. Seems like that pole sought out white people who like to lie.

barman Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 you're right whites smoke as much pot as blacks, yet blacks are racially targeted which is why they have all those arrests for possessionRuefully correct. I worked with national drug policy orgs from 1999-2010 and all empirical data demonstrates that use of all illicit drugs is virtually identical between various races in North America with the one exception of "Asian-Americans" - the category most commonly referring to Americans who have immigrated from East and Southeast Asia. (Overall use within this demographic is markedly Less) Virtually identical is clarified to mean within +/- 3%. It should also be noted that all such statistics have an inherent flaw in that they request respondents openly acknowledge criminal behavior, though this flaw is lessened in the past few years by the legalization of marijuana for approximately 40% of the US population Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barman Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Here in the Deep South of USA (below the Mason-Dixon line), drug possession arrest rates for people of color are easily 2 to sometimes 3x the rates for proportional populations of whites. Going further, actual conviction rates are at least 3x and sentences of actual imprisonment are close to 5x between people of color and whites. The US War on Drugs is inarguably the most racist public policy since Jim Crow. Fortunately, increased awareness of the true data lends hope that such horrific disparities can be lessened in coming years, though as noted - here in the Deep South none of us are laying any chalk on such progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartman Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Smoking pot makes people less violent according to my personal life experience. I've smoked pot for 28 years and it mellows me out and does the same for the majority of people who smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is simply not in significant demand due primarily to it's incredibly debilitating effects. Illicit drug use in the USA begins and ends with marijuana (approx 85-88% of all such use) and pharms being used without legal prescriptions (10-12%) Both of these two categories demonstrate virtually identical usage rates irrespective of race. Gender appears to be a bit more of a factor with males being more inclined to marijuana and females slightly more inclined to use illegally obtained pharms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
