1. This accident has nothing to do with pot.

She could've been texting anyone for any reason and had the same result. She was drunk. I'm guessing this is response to this thread:

If so, your post wins epic fail of the day.

2. she was drunk, genius. I find your op disturbing.

you're trying to make pot look like it had something to do with this. It clearly did not.

What is wrong with you?

17. I think the reference to pot is intended for contrast

not only that but
if she had smoked just a little bit of pot
on top of all that alcohol, it likely would
have made it impossible for her to get
in the car and drive at all.

Pot in my experience tends to save people's
lives. If you've had too much to drink, pot
usually will make you dizzy and sick --
not make you want to keep drinking more, or
driving.

3. The drink driver is at fault, not the weed.

[Inkfreak]

4. Your post title is grossly misleading.

Driving while drunk & texting seems to be the cause of those lives being wrecked. Both of which are illegal here in NY. And rightly so. Not sure what you're including weed for in the title. Odd.

5. Um...she was driving drunk

and texting while driving.

6. So you dislike weed enough to lie about it. just lke the federal government. how cute

[Le Taz Hot]

7. You recced your own thread?

Weeeeeeee!!!

9. The post the OP was referencing:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10022899502

...has 9 recs. This one? 1 self-rec. Like I said upthread... epic fail.

[darkangel218]

10. Yah i know.

I don't smoke pot, but I don't hate it, nor make up lie OPs.

I think he has me.on ignore though :p

[Democracyinkind]

11. You confused "weed" with "alcohol"

Error or agenda? Inquiring minds want to know...

[darkangel218]

12. LMAO!!!!!

[cali]

13. post, self-rec, duck and run. Pathetic

I have utter contempt for the op and it's pathetic that you ran from it.

I intend to keep kicking it.

Everyone should see this lying shit.

[Cooley Hurd]

14. kick!

[Cooley Hurd]

22. The OP doubled down!

Kick again for exposure.

[Upton]

15. I see it's drug warrior time again..

Why you continue and try to defend failed policy is hard to figure out..that you've now been reduced to lying in that defense is much easier to understand...

16. texting while driving drunk

she could have been going to the supermarket to buy coffee.

[Bluenorthwest]

18. Drunk driving is bad enough but add texting and it's often deadly.

If you think this is about pot, not about drunks who drive, I have to wonder how much you drink yourself.

[Bluenorthwest]

19. This is dishonest, duplicitous, mendacious which is to say it is bullshit and pathetic

The OP should apologize and address those here who are calling out the bullshit. Cowards post lies and run. This is beyond FoxNews tactics.

[Aerows]

20. It's immaterial that she was discussing purchasing marijuana

She was driving drunk after being in a bar for five hours and texting. She could have been discussing politics or the weather and it still would be irrelevant because she was driving drunk and not paying attention to the road.

[Cooley Hurd]

21. (Regarding your edit) Doubling down on a dishonest OP...

Still the biggest epic fail I've seen for a while on DU.

Let me spell this in crayon: POT had NOTHING to do with the accident. Drinking, coupled with texting-while driving, caused the deaths. It is immaterial with whom or about what she was texting.

Raging epic fail. And you doubled down.

[Posteritatis]

23. Christ, talk about ignoring the actual cause. (nt)

[Comrade Grumpy]

24. Onehandle, you should delete this steaming pile of crap.
