When someone abandons the topic in order to focus on the opponent, it's a pretty sure sign.

When someone only answers a question with a question it's pretty clear they have nothing of value to say.

Funny, you've said that three times in a row after making a statement.

Depends on what one means by the term "a problem" because technically, if even a single 8-year old is smoking pot, it could be called "a problem".  (Just a teeny little one for society as a whole.)

And, since this whole sub-discussion arose after BB posted an article describing how 2 kiddies smoked pot and then he seemed to take some liberties with inaccurate language by asking the misleading question, "Would this become more prevalent with legalization?"  (NOT "Would this become prevalent with legalization?"), I find it hard to want to come down on Jack T. for any of his own language shenanigans.

That being said, I now gather that maybe Jack has some history of trolling you and SS4U so I'm going to say "ooops!" and see my way out of this discussion without further comment.  8)

lol   nah, its just a typical tactic of Jack.  He often dodges, defects or misdirects when pressed.  Its more tedious than trolling.  Jack's alright, he's a good guy.  I don't consider Jack a troller.  He's just tragically flawed in many of his conclusions.  

Like i said to Jack, show me some hard data or research on Children smoking pot  200 years ago and i will give him credit. I am sure some 8 year old kid smoked pot in the world 200 years ago, but was it so often and so many kids that it was a problem as defined the way would see it today?   Where, for example, there was school complaining that their students were smoking too much pot?   See we have to kind put this in perspective.  Another example, i am sure there was someone some place 200 years ago who tortured a squirrel.  Is it accurate to say there was a problem 200 years with children torturing squirrels?      

Until then, my A + B = C CT'er logical fallacy still stands.

Yes, anyone that's been defeated in debate has been trolled. Just ask them, and they'll tell you.

You havent defeated anyone.  Defeating an opponent would require you to have made a contribution to the discourse.

I've read some of his other posts and it's all the same thing over and over again.  This is what happens when a kid takes an intro to philosophy course and thinks he's Socrates.

Haha..it's all good. Anyone that's serious about the topic can read the thread for themselves. That's all that matters.

You guys are alright, as far as I'm concerned.

I only asked you to answer BB and quite dodging questions.  Seeing how you can't help yourself from dodging I understand how you might find that a challenge.

Staying on topic means fighting it now.  Am I to conclude you have no answers to my assertions?

This video is long but interesting. Includes some info about why marijuana is a Schedule 1 drug in the first part of the video and gets pretty good at about the 8m15s mark when Tennessee Congressman Cohen begins to directly question DEA Chief of Operations Tom Harrigan:

What is everyone arguing about, weed is good for the body and the economy, adults should be able to consume any drug they want.

What is it you're challenging, Oz?

Please make sure it's something I said, though, and not something that someone else said.

Should i either conclude:

1.  You can't read?
2.  You refuse to read?
3.  You have no answers to my assertions?

Which is it?
