Woah, what? What the hell is your problem? I literally just used the definition of what having a reservation is "withholding, keeping back, or applying a limiting condition to." I never said you were 100% for or against, I even said that the reservation you have may be well-founded, but that the research isn't conclusive yet. I also said that if it is an issue then we clearly need better education about cannabis use and driving. I'm not "shutting down" any discussion, I showed you why the research you cited is inconclusive, which it is and which you seemed to be willfully ignoring. If you're recognizing that it's inconclusive, then fine, no problem. As long as everyone is being honest about that.

Several people posted that people who are caught driving while stoned should be prosecuted. That's a rational response to my reservation.
It MAY be a valid reservation, sure. And as SEVERAL people HAVE suggested, we SHOULD prosecute people who drive impaired. No one has denied that or said anything close to denying that.
It seems YOU'RE the one who wants to shut the discussion down - THIS IS A VALID RESERVATION AND THAT'S THAT!
Well, no, that's not that. The conversation doesn't end there and people ARE allowed to challenge you on that reservation, as multiple people have. Chill the fuck out dude.
Yes, this discussion is over because you weren't able to respond to my reservation in a rational manner. You just kept denying the validity of my reservation. Other people did basically acknowledge the validity of my reservation. You might notice that I didn't argue with them.
I'm done with this discussion.
