FFS, Weed doesn’t affect anyone who doesn’t choose to be affected. It doesn’t even need to be smoked. Ever hear the term “nanny state”?
I don’t know what point you’re trying to make but if you honestly can’t understand the difference between a victimless crime and a real crime, I can’t communicate with you on this topic.
Driving through red lights doesn’t affect anyone either than. I make it through the intersection, nobody gets hurt and everybody gets what they want. We’re arguing same thing. Both are victimless crimes.
you making it through an intersection at a red light requires luck. you need to get lucky, every time, or someone fucking dies. a dead person is a fucking victim, therefore it’s not a “victimless crime”
weed can’t kill you. that’s why it’s a victimless crime. in extremely rare cases it can cause mental health problems, but only in the person taking it.
the difference is that in one case YOU are responsible for harming someone else, in the other case they did it to themselves AND it’s extremely rare AND it’s not based on random luck.
these situations are not even close to being the same thing.
In the context of what people have said here they are the same.
Luck has nothing to do with victimless crime. I can safely navigate running red lights and be as safe as smoking weed.
Increases stoners increases amount of stoned drivers on the road. Increasing risk to all drivers.
Smoking anything increases risk of disease. Inhaling any burning substance increases risk both to mental and physical health. Increasing demand on medical systems already stretched thin. Who says a pot head doesn’t kick someone out of prompt medical care by taking up a bed or service.
But again increasing risk doesn’t create any victims. We’ve said no victimless crime should exist. Unless they should exist and that risk to public is a viable reason to create a law.
