Who is not scared to openly admit this?

The only funny thing with the legality of marijuana, is the fact that alcohol does MORE to you, for a longer period of time, damages more organs and portions of your body, and kills MORE people in 1 month than pot has in years and years. Yet alcohol is still legal....
very well put herpluver.


Lucille that is what is so beautiful about you, me and everyother human being on this planet we all have diffrent views on things etc.. Im all for "UNITY IN DIVERSITY" Im glad you seen many good cops I myself have seen more bad than good. That is not what this thread is about though. Ask the beautiful ppl of NEW ORLEANS where all the good cops are????? Come on I dont want to have to say names here why are all you guys scared to admit it? I know there are others just like myself that as we are typing are also puffing. Dont make me throw you out in the street. LOL. kidding. I would not do that i have the utmost respect for everyones rights to privacy.. and views. We dont have much time on this earth lets spend it how we choose(in a friendly respectful way) Well this is my last post for a few hrs im off to see a movie. This I hope stays a very friendly DEBATE. Although it was not intended to be a debate. Peace love & respect to everyone. Jacob Walsh

I don't think it's even close to reasonable to think you can compare caffeine and nicotine to THC.

I'm not sure who you're referring to, but it's worth noting that one of the mods is a police officer. I'm kind of curious as to what he might have to say about this topic.

I used to be a BIG time pot head, and to be honest, my memory is MUCH better now that i dont use. I can't say i didnt miss the feeling, but either way, im much more active and remember a whole hell of alot more now that i dont smoke.

Fact: Smoking marijuana diminishes cognitive ability.

Interpretation: Smoking pot makes you stupid.

Sorry, but it's true.

For the record, I am not anti-weed...but that most certainly does not make me pro-weed either. I have seen many, many people "self medicate" with weed in an effort to cope with emotional and mental problems. These people would be far better served by appropriate psychiatric/psychological intervention. In fact, I have yet to see a chronic weed smoker who didn't have some sort of underlying psychiatric condition. I am not saying this in order to cast dispersions on anyone posting here. Merely as food for thought.

Actually thats who i was referring to, but didnt know how open the information was and didnt want to just blurt it out incase it was considered "covert" information.

It's about as reasonable as comparing aspirin to Oxycontin. Sure, they're both drugs, but that's pretty much where the similarities end.

Isn't it funny how someone can compare caffeine or nicotine to THC, but that same person would most assuredly balk if you drew a similar comparison between marijuana and heroin?

Twenty five people in my family alone (some sisters, some brothers & many of their kids too) have their heads in a cloud (of pot smoke) all the time. They are LOSERS, LOSERS, LOSERS and it's all because they can't put down the weed. They can't hold down jobs, they don't have cars, they live off of welfare. They are in and out of jail. I could go on and on.

My question for you is this: How do you hold down a job and light it up at the same time? Do they give random drug tests?

I don't like beer as much as I don't like cigarettes and pot.

As have I in my professional lifetime, though the same can also be said for alcohol, benzos, narcotics, and cocaine.

I figured that you'd agree. As I was typing I almost included (Right Jim?).

LOL.

Even if it doesn't start that way. My experience is that most "recreational" users go through a phase and put it down. Those that become habitual users more often than not are medicating themselves. Often they don't even realize what it is until they attempt to quit.

I know many stoners here in the So. Cal. herp community. Every show I attend there is always 4:20 sales, unfortunatley I'm in the car at the time, thats right OG Kush every day is the only way. To the people who say it will rob you of your drive and purpose... is it your drive and purpose to be a self-centered mindless consumer? Life is about being a good person, a light to others. Most people will call pot heads losers because they havent achieved (bought) as much as them. You are not what you own! I will agree that pot is not for everybody, but what is? (SEX) haha.
All I ask of people is not to base thier moral beliefs on legalities. Jesus our savior was jailed more times than me. Our commandments and natures laws are very basic and natural ,the way things are supposed to be, the way they were created. Its all very simple if you just sit back and see life the way it was meant to be seen. A joint of Kush might help you see.
Mabey we are called stoners because we are here for the world to cast thier stones at?
