  Drug-Sniffing Dogs Getting Retired at Airports

  by RubaDub in

  i found this interesting in the news that dogs used to sniff for drugs at airports are being significantly cut back here in the us due to the increased legality of marijuana at the state level (though technically still illegal at the federal level) and passengers arriving from canada.

  a large number of the dogs are being put into early retirement.. i learned that dogs can be trained to sniff for drugs but once they "learn" a smell, they cannot unlearn it.

  basically, there is no difference to them between marijuana or cocaine or meth.

  i had to submit to a random work place drugs test yesterday, of which i passed.

  in this country smoking marijuana / methamphetamine is illegal.

  the thing that really struck me was that despite the illegal nature of it, was just how prevalent and problem is.

  States have limits but they are based on hunches instead of science. THC traces stay longer than alcohol. The usual driving habit seems to be going 20 under the speed limit, the slowed reaction time is a worry

  The legalization didnt change the market much. It is not like there were not smokers already. The greedy tax keeps the black market going.

  You dont have to test for meth, just watch the teeth

  The mj is the problem. The positives stay a long time after the " impairment " is over. Whatt if they tested for alcohol?

  Jordan Peterson - Messiah or Poseur?

  a jp video came up on my youtube feed last week - he was on a panel in front of a huge audience and some poor disturbed guy ran on stage and started crying and wailing to peterson that he needed his help.

  it was agonising to watch.. what was even more disturbing was the comments section.

  i do not exaggerate when i say that dozens of people were extolling peterson's wisdom as if jesus had come again.

  Ever notice a lot of JWs don't have pets?

  i was told by several elders to not get a dog when i was looking for one in the 80s.

  the end was close and we needed to focus on the preaching work.

  i know some have pets but a lot don't.

  One of the downsizing and needgreating videos had a family getting rid of the dog. The telling oart was tge wiman saying how much she missed the comfort/stress reduction from a pet.
