(13,616 posts)Indeed, there is a lot that can be done, and should be done, to give people the knowledge they need. That being said, do they do the same thing with alcohol?
Also, the bar did warn her it was sixteen sevrings. Granted, you have a point about making things more organized, more of a standard procedure that could be expected comparable to drugstores, I will also grant that a lot of the amtuers, the people who never wanted to be responsible, need to be washed out, just like moonshiners. However, she did not ask the inital questions. No, she cannot be comapred to the rest of the "novices" because again, she is expected to know how to ask questions.
and btw, as far as rpecious piot, I do not use the stuff. I am looking forward to a day when pot is about an uncool as the sweaters and gasahol most of it should be used to make.
