    Well I was right about the heroine... I've seen what it can do to people and trust me, it's the last thing you wanna try.

    A word from your English teacher:
    heroinE = female hero
    heroin = controlled substance
    Sorry, couldn't help myself :)

    BTW - legalise away. All the good arguments have already been presented very elaborately so I do not wish to repeat them.

    If you are in a car and you are not stoned then you have nothing to worrie about. Don't twist the words mate.
    You don't think that won't happen just because it's legal??? Do you think the corner store will be giving the stuff away?? No. They know how much people pay for it. The dealers will just be getting richer because they can raise the price because the alternative is gonna cost more. Look at the underground booze trade. It's legal yet people get rich selling the moonshine. Same with cigarrettes. There are no quick answers.

    Whoa there!! Don't dare try and tell me what I can and can't do. I have seen things that would make your suburban-warrior head spin. I haven't just used the drug like alot of the weekend warriors here. I have lived with the drug as a part of my daily routine for a whole decade. Iwas stoned from morning until I passed out for that whole time. It made me lazy and not desire anything but getting high. True I could hold a job and act responsibly but it was a constant nag. I knew I was breaking the law and my quality of living was being raped by my habbits. So I quit. I quit 4 years ago.
    The drug isn't a gateway drug. It's the people you end up getting it from and socialising with that is the gateway into worse and worse things. It is illigal so with doing it comes the parranoya and shame that comes with doing anything illegal. That changes a person. Like it or not. Think before you react. Peace.
    this argument is about as usefull as glass fly swatter. It's the easy way out when you don't know why someone is saying what they are saying.
    What are you saying? It's ok to disagree but you won't listen until they agree with you? I you want to be open then be open. It's not enough to just say you are.
    Peace.

    I totally agree with you on that part. If it becomes a daily thing, parranoya comes up, along with tons of other problems. But I still think the drug should be legalized. The drug is what it is, a drug, just like alcohol is and just as with alcohol, using it can be fun and alot of people like their effects, but as with alcohol, you should not use it everyday.

    You used it every day, that's basically the same as an alcoholic, he can still do his job and stuff, but as you said, it becomes a constant nag. I know people that smoke it everyday.

    And respect for you, getting of an addiction is not the easiest thing.

    my friends father from ny has a celaphane wrapping like from a cigarette pack and on the bottom where the state tobacco tax stamp is,this one has a marijuana tax stamp,it is supposedly very old,and he keeps it in a storage type case so it doesnt get damaged.
    but we all used to grow our own pot
    mine was the best as i took money from selling it and bought the 600 dollar 1000 watt lights and the hydro table
    for the soil plants i got all my supplies from a garden shop storage yard after hours.
    in my moms 7 bedroom house i had 3 rooms for my hobby
    and thats all it was was a hobby
    i read 3 2000 page plus books on how to grow,harvest and cure
    plus the makeup of the plant and how it thrives in different conditions
    never got into cloning but should have as it would have been faster for new batches.
    i had so much i just started giving it away
    used to crush all the leaves and give them to my friends parents as they were hippies and would smoke the homegrown left overs
    the rest i made brownies and tea and other treats
    was a very peaceful hobby in my opinion and would love to do it again
    but now being ilder and all i would be scared to do it
    jail time is horrendus for such a stupid little thing
    plus my children do not need to be exposed to it,wothout being old enuff to make there own decisions about it.

    as a non-smoker i don't know the specific effects of Marijuana,
    some say it relaxes you, others say they feel euphoria...
    personally i'm addicted to Valium (benzodiazepines) but that's only because i suffer from heavy anxiety but i found they also heighten my mood, i don't mind being on them for life cause they helped me tremendously. ;)

    lets not kid ourselves all medicine have side-effects and some are obviously
    worse than Marijuana, so i'd say legalize Marijuana only in the medicine area
    and use it as required to relief patients from pain when other treatment failed.
    but i'm not a supporter of the 100% legal marijuana like cigarettes, if it were for me i'd ban all sort of smoking and lets not forget passive smoking is damaging for the non-smokers a lot more than the smoker itself.

    so i'm ok for legal marijuana as medical treatment to patients only. ;)

    How about let's forget. Because it's definitely not true. I don't know why I feel so compelled to correct this as I don't want to get into a discussion about it but oh well, I can always hit that little red close window box at the top right if I want.

    Non-smoker breathes second hand smoke. Smoker breathes second hand smoke AND 1st hand by inhalation. I'd also wager that the inhaled smoke is of exponentially larger quantity than the second hand as I don't see people exhaling smoke from second hand. So while I agree in basic form second hand smoke is stronger than smoke inhaled through a filter, the person who is inhaling the smoke is getting much, much more quantity of smoke. Lol with your outlook on the subject we should pop a cig in every babies mouth that lives in a smoker house. Doesn't make sense does it?

    i've smoked some "pot" and it is NOT MIND altering.

    it relieves stress. and makes you very relaxed.

    there is nothing wrong with "pot" more people DIE every year from eating at Mac D's than from smoking "pot"

    i have kissed one time a smoker girl and it was like kissing an ashtray even though she chewed gum and used spray, so not only enduring the $hitty smoke odor but also yer partner taste isn't funny.
    whoever said : "yer lips are like strawberries" was referring to a non-smoker.
    got so annoying that i asked her to stop smoking for the benefits of us both and she refused, she preferred the cigarette over the relationship so i simply drifted away and found a non-smoker girl which really tastes like strawberries without the use of chewing gums or spray. works great for me. ;)

    my grandpa was a smoker and my grandma wasn't, he lived 88 years and she lived only 69, proof that cigarettes aren't really killers, however while she died peacefully in her sleep, he lived the rest of his miserable life wishing death thanks to 2 heart attacks, prostate cancer and coughing heavily most of the time with jelly like sputum waking him up at night and preventing him from resting proper. cigarettes were in part responsible for some of the symptoms.
    your body will agree on anything until it's damaged enough that's when hell break loose.

    at this point all i can say is : "what's your favorite poison?"

    while i'm addicted to Benzos (valium) it's not bothering anyone, smokers instead are a pain in the arse. :D

    Any substance that changes the brain's perception or function, is "mind altering". THC is a mind altering drug.


    I love this quote people say:
    Kissing an ashtray? ...... Now that's funny.... Who in the hell knows what it's really like to kiss an ashtray?
