Cool enjoy jail and potentially ruining your career over something recreational. Even if it’s legal in a state a team can make it unauthorized. It’s really simple actually.

It is... your tolerance of an unjust law says more than kids who break it. Never failed a single urinalysis for usada, the ncaa, or bama. And i know ncaa coaches who legally enjoy recreational marijuana with 0 fear of ncaa or school sanctions. But the athletes can't. It's hypocritical af.

This is an utterly stupid analogy. It would be like someone using the same quote to go around murdering abortion providers.
Seriously...a moral responsibility to smoke pot?
Are you really this fricking stupid?
Maybe you're exhibit A for what smoking pot does to your brain cells.

The hell it isn't.
Legalized abortion is an unjust law that kills innocent human beings, and we have a moral responsibility to protect those innocents, by any means necessary.
Same logic.

College kids smoking weed isn't a character issue.
College football players making a conscious decision to put their selfish wants ahead of their team, willfully break a law and get arrested, and represent their program in a negative way is absolutely a character issue.

I think we found our painfully obvious difference. Disobeying abortion law is having babies, not murdering doctors.

If anyone has character issues it's the people who punish and ruin the lives of people over it.
Don't be a fricking moron.
When you willfully break a law that you know will land you in jail, only a fricking dumbass would say that someone else is ruining your life.
Seriously.
You make the decision to do it, you fricking own the consequences.
Enough of this bullshite about someone "ruining your life". What fricking stupidity.

The only thing painfully obvious here is the utter stupidity of the argument that one has a moral obligation to smoke pot.

Never seen smoking pot listed in any state statute, possession, sales, cultivation yes... you like building strawmen though.

Comparing segregation to the legalization of pot?Posted on 1/31/18 at 11:42 pm to TomRollTideRitter

Are you somehow under the impression marijuana law origins were not extremely racially motivated? And very much still used against the same crowd 80 years later?

The system isn't perfect but enought of the excuse making for bad behavior. The NFL isn't perfect but most teams don't want potheads on their team. Drug use can derail careers and I for one wouldn't risk my future over fricking pot.

All effects from unjust laws... not marijuana.
So here's an excerpt from US patent # 6,630,507
quote:
Cannabinoids have been found to have antioxidant properties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This new found property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and HIV dementia.
If there were anybody who needs an antioxidant and neuroprotectant, it would likely be football players. Owner of said patent is our government via the department of health and human services, so there's that. Feel free to browse the patent and research here. Reality is y'all are quite possibly double fricking these kids.

Yet Colorado has had an increase in drug trafficking and production, it’s up with the youth, vehicular homicide is through the roof. There is no way to test it, which, is Colorado’s fault in the first place. It has caused major issues in the state. There is more to this than a football player needs some weed.
