The only difference between Dunn's alleged illegal act of drinking and driving and Clemons' illegal act of smoking pot, is that Dunn's death was directly related. You're clearly anti-dunk driving which is great, but you can't pick and choose between the justification of illegal acts. It's almost as if you base your opinions on the way someone dies.
Also, just a reminder that at this point Dunn's death is not yet confirmed to be alcohol related. I will concede that chances are, he was under the influence, but you can't judge so quickly without evidence.

Well the massive difference there is that one action leads to placing innocent people in harms way, while the other is limited to the person making the choice (unless we're going to get into second hand smoke). If people want to get wasted and cruise around a closed track I have no problem with it, enjoy yourself. When you do it on a street that is shared with the rest of the citizens of the area I have a
little bit of an issue with you piloting thousands of pounds of metal around while wasted.
