SIT!


A couple of weeks ago, after complaining about Stand (an Ohio based anti-smoking organization) I, along with some other OBers, decided to create SIT, an organization that serves no other purpose then to bitch about “community service” commercials and drink coffee.

Well, it is time to commence the bitching!

Recently, an anti-marijuana commercial has been airing on television depicting a teenage boy that killed his brother while driving under the influence of pot. At the end of the commercial the narrator states an alarming statistic: One out of three drivers involved in automobile accidents tested for drugs test positive for marijuana. This is an insanely misleading statement…the first time you hear the announcement it makes you think that one out of three accidents are caused by drivers under the direct influence of marijuana. The truth of the matter is police officers only give drug tests to people that have paraphernalia or drugs in their car, or people that look stoned out of their mind.

So it is more like one out of three people that seemed stoned at the time the accident occurred are under the influence of pot, and even then they may not be “under the influence” because pot stays in your system for up to thirty days.

I’m not condoning the use of pot…I’ve done it before and it would defiantly impair your ability to operate an automobile…I just think it is ridiculous that the government feels the need to make pot a bigger deal then it already is.

Anyway, that is my first rant for SIT…now everybody DRINK COFFEE!
