1) I'm pretty sure the search function would reveal that this is not new news, nor a new discussion.

2) What does this have to do with skiing?

this one hit the nail on the head

"VSP, wasn't the first high speed quad at Vail the Vistabahn known locally as the Rastabahn and I also recall a bong tree?. I think there should be prosecution of prescription drug addicted political commentators, a far greater menace to society IMHO. OK, OK, lets prosecute all paid political commentators. [IMG]epicski.com/img/vbsmilies/smilies/biggrin.gif[/IMG]

Potheads don't puke, piss and pass out in public and generally don't act like idiots. I think ignoring the toker and concentrating on other areas of controlling criminal behavior or public safety is a better use of law enforcement dollars. Have we learned nothing from Prohibition? I bet potheads are the only group that wouldn't mind being taxed if they could stroll to the local outlet to purchase the herb of their choice, We might even be able to fund universal health care or pay for the two wars we're fighting with the new tax revenue.

Do potheads offer a greater threat to the skiing public than the legally drinking skier just on the slopes after a few lunch time drinks? My guess is no and probably less so."

"What this might do is attract more visits to Breckenridge by the younger crowd -- especially the 'Baggy Pants' crowd. Not because they all smoke weed, but because of the rebel status this brings to the town and resort"

Nope, I'd say we all smoke weed.

I am pretty sure you still cant smoke in public anyway so all the law really does is protect people from being busted with weed on them or with weed in their home. You still can't (legally) ride up a lift and blaze.

One of my favorite quotes from the epic ski thread:

"from a person who hasnt smoked one ounce of weed in thier life I am saying legalizing it is the best course of action there could be or will ever be."

Obviously he has never smoked weed before... an OUNCE?! not exactly a miniscule amount of pot. He def still could have toked up a couple dozen times and still been under an ounce. Just thought that was slightly entertaining.

its true in all pot vs. alcohol arguments. it all comes down to the way they effect the person. and honestly pot doesnt include any of the fighting,bad judgment,vandalism, etc. that alcohol does....

I laughed so hard at that. I understand the expression, but he doesn't realize how much that is!

 There are so many golden quotes in there. This one was my favorite:
"I certainly would never go to a ski resort where pot was smoked.  And I can tell you no good will ever come of it. "
