Marijuana situation

Recommended Posts

Remember in that other thread where I said:

"You, my friend, have been making me look like a fairly nice alternative at times lately."

Well, this is one of those times.

Call me clueless or in denial, but I like to think that my fellow airmen of all persuasions keep that crap off the DZ or any other airports.

I have heard of that shit happening at my ex-home DZ since the new owners bought it a few years ago. Not exactly why I quit going there, but it reinforces my reasons not to jump there...

this is an anonymous poll, no one will know how you answer so feel free to be honest.



This is also a PUBLIC forum. As for honesty, I gave you a 100% honest answer--I like to think that my fellow skydivers and all other airmen keep that shit away from DZs or any other place where aircraft are operated.

For a while, that crap was happening in the 80's and most of us finally realized that it was a bad thing. I guess history has a way of repeating itself.

I fully understand the difference. I was pointing out that these posts are accessible to those outside the sport.

There times when a poll like this would have a purpose of learning, or getting others thinking.

I have a feeling this isn't one of them.

That said, if people go to the dropzone and drink, or jump while they're still hung over, or tired, I don't really think that pot is that far away from reality. No proof, just a thought that each generation has to learn the same lessons themselves.

Me, I'm 50, way uncool, and subject to drug testing :P.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

That's ok, type j0nes in the search function and see how many pointless, slanted polls there are :D




you don't like my poll, don't read it



I didn't say I didn't like it. Your posts do have a lot of entertainment value.
it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

I disagree Wendy. I started this poll because I knew there was SOME drug use at my DZ (and some I've visited).

However as I started hanging out at the DZ until later hours, I saw more people partaking.... some even in your age group!

So no, this poll was not intended to criticize anyone for their use or non-use.
