When I graduated high school most of the kids were sneaking booze in the back doors of parties and lots of driving home drunk on Friday and Saturday nights. So what?

I didn't reply at all. I clicked the "Like" link. What's up?
I don't know why but I read "would you rather I didn't reply to your posts."

This has gotten way off track with personal attacks and name calling.
The original question was is it wise to conceal carry and smoke pot. I believe the answer is a resounding NO. That said if it's legal to smoke pot in the state you live in (just like having a beer) you should be allowed to partake and receive a permit. It should be treated like alcohol. Have the permit, but don't carry while under the influence.
If the truth were known, likely 85-90% of Americans have tried pot at some time in their lives. Many of them have gone on to live happy highly productive lives. They've become an asset to the nation and their communities.
Further, I don't feel any decision should be made retroactive. The article doesn't delineate that, but they knew marijuana was illegal (before). If they were caught and convicted before it was legalized, they shouldn't be issued a permit. It's still a conviction.

Pretty frequent occurrence in this neck of the woods
People who use marijuana today are still doing so in violation of Federal law regardless of what state they live in. In some states the Federal government has only promised not to prosecute the illegal use.
Eric Holder Says DOJ Will Let Washington, Colorado Marijuana Laws Go Into Effect
It's been over 30 yrs. ago, but yes I've been there done that. It's just not my thing. Although, I've become good friends with Mr. Jack Daniels over the years, I don't care for Scotch (the same way that I don't care for pot). This is my take on the Pot/Alcohol debate. They should both be legal and used in responsible moderation. JMHO

Understood, and I'm in agreement with you. Illegal is illegal, period.

I am sorry, my google-fu isnt working very well today.... I tried (because it is related, just switch alcohol with maryjane) to find all the dead and maimed bodies and terror stories from the states that allow you to *GASP* drink while armed...... (no specific law against drinking while armed) couldnt find a one.... How about all the terrible accidents and mayhem caused by people driving under the influence of that horrible pot? Nope, couldnt find any..... I need more practice or something..... OR.... things like that just arent that much of a problem... No, couldnt be that, right?

I personally can't, and don't care when or where it became illegal. I don't even have to agree with it. The fact that it is now is what's relevant.

I suggest you do some research about the Constitution and what a REAL "Law" consists of... and WHAT THE SUPREME COURT has said about UnConstitutional "laws".... Google it and get an education.....

Spoken by someone who has no CLUE what RIGHTS are, and is 100% fine with others RIGHTS being infringed upon just because they dont like something (agree with that particular infringement), even though NO GOVT has the power to INFRINGE on RIGHTS.... (even though they do all the time)Most of us areThere seems to be a few that think it'd be just fine.
