Preaching to the choir. I think you will see a change next cba, but for now, Irving to protest and go about it the way he did on social media was completely idiotic. You have to be a complete moron...

The pain killers thing was back in the 70's as for pot yeah it's legal to smoke it but like alcohol it's still dangerous to be under the influence of it.
Drinking is legal but I can't do it at work and if I am under the "influence" of it I am fired.

Don't want to get into any nearsighted debate about how alcohol is legal so it's "ok" or just as harmful or safe as weed. Lol, that's one of the biggest crocs of shit the gov'ment ever got away with. Population control and $$ ppl

You really think the NFL quit passing out pain killers? Ever heard of Brett Favre? I think he played after the 1970's. I am not an advocate of smoking pot either, I am just being fair. Also people can test positive long after the effects of marijuana have worn off. Testing dirty for marijuana does not mean someone is stoned. It isn't like alcohol where a test can judge the level of intoxication.

I never smoked, but had friends that did. Back in my younger days I never had to keep a stoned friend from destroying something or starting a fight because they were stoned, yet I had many a time where I had to keep a friend who had too many drinks from getting into trouble.
