Reality shows are NOT real. They are people playing roles, pretending.

Chumlee plays the low-life lazy dummy because that's the role they gave him to play, and he does it very well.
but it ain't real any more than Don Knotts was as dumb and goofy as Barney Fife.

I have no idea if he's a POS in real life, but if they busted him with meth that would be a pretty strong clue.

Pot isn't a gateway drug, just like chewing hemp will NOT get you high. All it does is get you mellow and have the munchies. Unfortunately some people get paranoia and think Sammy will kill ya if you pee on his lawn.....

IMHO, pot makes people STOOPID, lazy, and unmotivated.
Really not my concern, until I am forced to support them.

And since I am forced to support so many of these mush-brains, I believe I have a say.

So why not go for the trifecta and add the Pot tax? Other states are piling on, can there be any doubt in ten years it will mostly be legal in the USA?

Or is it Nevada's high moral standard? Daddy blew his paycheck at the casino so the kids don't have dinner... mommy is selling herself to strangers to make ends meet... but smoking pot is baaaaaad!

hmmmm, I disagree. While that might be the case for many, I know from personal experience that you can get lite a few times a week and be very productive and successful. I have known several amazingly successful people as well as myself that have. Its not a gateway and it doesn't kill brain cells. Would these folks be better without it? In my experience with dope and these folks - makes zero difference.

That being said, there are many folks that fail if they smoked dope or not. Its more to do with personal motivation. Dope doesn't steal it from those with it, only offers an excuse or explanation for those with it.

so you want the state to use terror to enforce your hatred
and do not care that there is no real effect of pot on drivers
unlike drunks who do kill

For $125,000 an episode, I could look like a bumbling fool also, but I believe for him, it isn't an act !

I saw the gateway thing in action, so that's not true in every case. Super smart friend in HS, great football player, wealthy parents, a world of opportunity until he pissed it away by becoming a pothead and eventually moving to the real hardcore stuff. Btw, yes I've seen that same progression with alcohol as well, and believe it or not I am in favor of legalizing pot.

I think standard nicotine cigarettes are the ultimate gateway drug.

I have seen a few people piss away their life with drugs. 100% of them were smokers first. The pot and booze and down the road to ruin.

I know a few non nicotine users that smoked pot and function just like social drinkers with zero problems in functioning and raising a family.

Having seen countless nicotine addicts stop working to go outside in a snow storm or in 100+ degree heat to get a fix has always amazed me.
