No "fight me" attitude, here. It's more along the lines of, "provide some actual substance, rather than throwing personal insults, because repeating that you feel that you can drive well while high means next to nothing".
Learning to drive a stick shift did not put you in an altered state, in any way similar to taking a psychoactive drug. If you truly believe that, there's no point trying to reason with you. That's not only not scientific. It's also nonsense. Were you by any chance high while doing this learning? If so, the altered state comment would make some sense.
Comparing psychoactive drug use to everyday eating, drinking, sleeping, and breathing, is beyond ridiculous. Also, adapting to something does not mean that it no longer has any negative effects. Going by your logic, we should adapt to alcohol, like everything else, and should be confident in claiming that it doesn't have any negative effects on our ability to catch a baby, or to put out a fire, or to avoid an accident. Unfortunately, that is not the case, as nice as that may be.
It's not limiting adults for their own safety. I do feel minors should be restricted from doing things that can harm them, but if adults want to harm themselves, in private, I wouldn't want the law to penalize them for it, as inadvisable as self-harm may be. That said, once there is a risk of anyone's behavior affecting even one other person, it is no longer only their business, and I am fine with the law stepping in to protect the other people.
Saying "no disrespect", before implying that someone is talking out of their ass, is like saying "I'm not racist but...*racist comment*". If you want to be insulting, go for it, but also own up to it. Don't try to get away with throwing around rude comments without being held accountable for the lack of debate skills that they expose.
Once again, don't cherry pick sentence fragments, to build a terribly pointless strawman to argue against. I didn't say that I "very likely" think that we should single out Cannabis use.
Not being able to feasibly prove/regulate certain negative things, doesn't mean that we should be unable to punish people for doing other dangerous things which we can prove and regulate. If we can find a level of caffeine that causes significant impairment, I would wholeheartedly support legally punishing those who drive with such an amount in their system.
This is more nonsense and speculation. There's no guilt trip.
"Hyperventilating"? Is refraining from being insulting, like you and the guy you quoted, and then refuting every point in a respectful rebuttal "hyperventilating" in your mind? If so,

"Terrified"? "Like me"? This is actually funny. I don't and wouldn't drive while high, so I wish people were
more like me in that regard. It would provide a bit of peace of mind, knowing that nobody on the road is high.
Furthermore, there is no mention of anything "awful inside them" or whatever, in my post. That's a bunch of nonsense rambling, again. Crashing and killing someone because you were high and impaired (and again...Cannabis does impair people who don't have significant tolerance levels), isn't something awful emerging from inside. It's failure to perform at a safe level due to being impaired by a drug.
If you don't think that Cannabis impairs those without significant tolerance levels, hang out with a group of people who are getting high for the first time. It's not unheard of for non-regular Cannabis users to do stupid things, or at least to lose track of what they are doing, when high, especially for the first time.
You're right, and the science so far shows that Cannabis' effects on driving are not as safe or nonexistent as you seem to believe:
You wanted science. You got it. Your turn.
