If you smoke and don't drive, I don't give a damn at all. Live and let live.
If you smoke weed while you're behind the wheel, it damn well is.
It affects your perception and response time. Perhaps not in the same manner as alcohol does, but it certainly affects you. It also qualifies legally as Driving Under the Influence.
I have zero sympathy for any idiot that hops behind the wheel when intoxicated, be it alcohol, grass, coke, meth, pain pills, or whatever. As far as I'm concerned, take their license for 5 years first offense. 2'nd offense, lock their ass up for 5 years. AFAICS, if you do that, you're showing nothing but contempt for the life of every other driver and passenger on the road with you.
Yes, I may be overreacting. No, I don't care if I am.
