If you need drugs to get high and relax, then there is something really fucked up with you.
I and many others can enjoy myself without having to take any shit.
As always, drugs are for losers, whatever the effect it has on the body.
Only time you should be taking drugs is when you got a medical problem.
But anyhow, for the ones who do take, hurry up and overdose already, dont need selfish people that in this world.

"Yes it should be illegal -- but I shall give no reason."
Just say that. We don't want to hear, nor do we care about your patronization.
|
If you dont want to hear or care then shut the fuck up. Its a public forum and we are allowed to state our opinion. Tough shit if its not what you want to hear.
No matter what, its an illegal substance, abide by the law or face the consequences. Until its made legal, do as IWarrior says, overdose on it and save the Judicial system a fortune. Some of you WILL move onto harder drugs for a better kick. So start worrying now. Possible jail time later!! Die early and save me a fortune.

Funny this came up... I just had to give a speech to my poker players tonight because I've heard that some of them are doing marijuana outside my house at breaktime. I basically told them that I don't know what I ever said or did to imply that it was OK to bring illegal drugs anywhere near my house.
I also drink only once or twice a year and never to drunkenness, so don't call me a hypocrite. I think people who _need_ to get high or drunk to have a good time are pathetic. I swear some people think that a party without drinking can't be fun. Lame, lame, lame.
I'm the bawss.

It's not cause cigarettes and alcohol (both hard drugs) are legal that soft drugs should be.
It rather raises questions about cigarettes and alcohol. Too bad no government has the balls to limit their use big time. Well, the French government did raise the price of cigarettes a lot in a short period and it did have a good effect. Unlike the Belgian government which raises with cents just to avoid regular income flowing away.
I work in health sector and I can tell one thing: dying of tobacco isn't pretty at all.

They are imposing massive anti smoking bans in virtually all public areas accross the world, America has been hit by this along with ireland and the UK will be following suit, think some areas of europe have also implemented things like this.

I play a lot of poker, for us smoking is half of it everyone I know that plays poker also smokes weed, it's where I usually pick up at games. Smoking and poker have gone together since the old western movies. Many people feel it improves their game.

Have to agree with this, I dont drink much myself.
But there is a big difference between alcohol and drugs, one is socialy acceptable and the other is not, also alcohol can be good for you if you dont over do it, like one glass of red wine is good for your heart.
Alcohol is used for medical reasons, for cleasing wounds, back before pain killers, doctors used to give it to the people they work on to numb the pain.
Further back you go, alcohol was the only other drink other then water in some civilizations and communitys and everyone had it, from babys, kids and to adults.
Alcohol is only bad if you overdo it, like everything elas if you overdrink or overeat something, you can harm yourself, you can even kill yourself on water if you drink enough of it in one day, I believe I read it takes 160 pint size glasses to do that.

I will still stick with my beer, twice a week, after work.
Never have I had any inclination to try any drugs. Seeing the effects on my mates was enough to stop anyone. Yes! They thought they could control it, how wrong they were.
Smoking! Never touched cigarettes either. My parents both smoked and my Mother died of lung cancer. Yes it was tobacco related.
We all think we know our limitations. Little do we really know.

Since when is everything that's "socially acceptable" the better choice? It wasn't "socially acceptable" to shelter blacks along the underground highway. It wasn't "socially acceptable" for women to work. It isn't "socially acceptable" for homosexuals to be who they are. Society doesn't always get everything right...
I'm sure you've heard of "medicinal marijuana". I'm pretty sure the word "medicinal" implies that it IS used in the medical field. I'm too lazy to research, but I'm sure xptek will fill you in on the medicinal advantages of marijuana.
The only reason why they drank alcohol because it was more sanitary than water.
As it's been proven and said more than once, you cannot overdose on marijuana...
No, I don't smoke pot, and I don't promote the usage of drugs. I just think that it's always a good idea to be informed with reliable information instead of being fed Propaganda Pie.
whoa.

sufferers of Multiple Sclerosis use cannibis purely for medicinal purposes to ease immense pain. The people who grow the cannibis for them and turn it in to cannibis cream or chocolate risk being convicted of dealing, despite giving the cannibis away to people genuinly in need of it.

Good idea. Marijuana laws in Arizona are very strict and unnecessary. (linkage)

I'd like to point out that this was also the case with Marijuana, and that it also has a lot of documented medical use.
Personally, I'd rather smoke than fill my body with a socially acceptable toxin. (I don't drink, BTW).

Already said.

No, you provided a few insightful statements like "they should hurry up and overdose already," but you still have yet to tell us why you think any government has the right to tell you what you can't/can put in your body.
