That's why I suggested MA instead of the others. There's a pretty bad dynamic even inside places like AA. If you aren't THIS big of a drunk, what the fuck are you doing here? It's just people's attitude you can't ever really get away from.
Can you imagine though, like what if, a guy went into an NA meeting and said, "I have a pot problem" and then everyone immediately is like "oh boy here we go", and then he goes on to say that he just killed his wife and it's because of pot. You'd probably be taken back, and question the fuck out of it wouldn't you?
Well a similar case is currently in court.
I really don't believe this guy should go free just cause he claims he was high. He needs to be punished severely for his actions. Sure, maybe better wording on the edible packaging like the FDA does with alcohol, but that's it.
Regardless of how mentally fucked up this guy is, he claims that pot pushed him to do it. That in itself is enough definition for an addict IMO whether he smokes everyday or if that was his first time ever doing pot. It doesn't matter. He is an addict, and his story blows all of yours out of the water.
