This is what happens when you actually throw the ball forwards rather than these stupid bubble screens that we run that NEVER work . <| sep |> the deadliest blizzard in recorded history happened in Iran Southern Iran sustained as much as 26 feet 7 . 9 m of snow , burying at least 4 , 000 individuals <| sep |> All For a Halloween Topper ? <| sep |> That ' s part of it . Also , the system as it currently exists in almost all legal or semilegal states does little more than a handwave to address keeping minors away from it . Current protections and current penalties for provision to minors are trash . Additionally , there ' s an ideological argument effectively Libertarian that you need a reason in a free society to keep things illegal . I understand that view , but don ' t inherently agree . And much of the argument for legalization hinges on that notion . If you don ' t believe by example that people should be able to go 150 MPH on roads when they can ' t see another car , because their awareness and judgment is imperfect and speed limits exist to assure safety and not punish people for moving quickly , then the same arguments for weed make little sense . It isn ' t a victimless drugregardless of the proweed lobby ' s rhetoric indicating otherwise . Just like speeding isn ' t victimless when you accidentally hit something or someone you didn ' t see coming . As much as we like to pretend that marijuana doesn ' t have victims , or that the only victims of it are victims of its criminality , almost any rational view recognizes that isn ' t true . The best argument against more wide availability for weed is five minutes with the average stoner . Marijuana has marked , deleterious effects on longterm users . Beyond that , it along with alcohol , sure does indeed function as a gateway drug for many and is not actually this miracle cureall many advocates paint it to be . Just because it ' s not like the afterschool specials where little Timmy hits a joint and is shooting up smack the next day doesn ' t mean that enculturating teens and young adults into a culture of casual drug use is smart , healthy , or socially valuable .
