[QUOTE=archangel125;20357435]Look, here's the point. Weed is mostly harmless. It does not intoxicate people as much as alcohol, and is less addictive than either nicotine or alcohol. It is illegal because some bastard way back when who saw the hemp industry as competition to his textile corporation made an appeal to the then-racist white male anglo-saxon government, using many bigoted, sexist and otherwise deplorable arguments, which eventually resulted in the government outlawing marijuana.
Want to smoke weed? Go ahead, but be aware of the risks if you're caught. Until the government today acknowledges the wrongs of the past and legalizes marijuana, you're in danger of being criminally charged if found in posession of it. That said, no substance, be they drugs, alcohol, or cigarettes, should be experimented with simply for the purpose of 'looking cool' or 'fitting in'. It requires age, experience and maturity to understand the full implications of one's actions in this area.

okay really leaving now.
I'm out of here too then. archangel pretty much sums it up.
[QUOTE=Abrown516;20355876]How people rely on it to fit in, and how people ignorant of its effects think it's cool.[/QUOTE]
People smoke cigarettes to be cool. If you smoke weed to fit in you're a wannabe stoner. A lot of people enjoy the effects though, and do it responsibly, and don't do harder drugs, so how is it worse than the occasional drink? You sound like you're the one who's uninformed about this topic, not your friend Jacob.
[QUOTE=Abrown516;20357146]That's really sad, and so true.[/QUOTE]lol
Dude, It's their choice. Your not their parents, if they want to "ruin" their lives then let them be?
By the sounds of it you need to try it yourself it might relax you a bit. Its not bad stuff :wink:
[QUOTE=cmanatlan;20357480]A lot of people enjoy the effects though, and do it responsibly, and don't do harder drugs, so how is it worse than the occasional drink?[/QUOTE]
I just want to point out also that there are legal, cheap, over the counter (and readily available to children) drugs that can cause [i]physical dependency and death[/i] if taken in large enough doses. I hardly think it's anything to worry about if the biggest problem you face on one substance is requiring some Doritos. Check out the statistics for people who overdose on Tylenol, or alcohol related automobile deaths, compared to deaths due to weed.

What you fail to see... Is that hardly, maybe 15%, of weed smokers do it to be cool. REAL smokers, like me, do it to get away from shit. Just a nice little hour and a half or so vacation in my opinion. I don't see what's so wrong with that, yeah, I guess it is a little sad we have to resort to "drugs" to get a break... But, sometimes, that's what people are stuck with. If you're that hot-headed about it, get some new friends and join the small platoon of anti-weed folks.
This should change your perspective on marijuana

[QUOTE=HolyCrusade;20356377]It was a big mistake posting this here. Facepunch is filled with 14 year old potheads who think it's cool to get high. I exclude you medicinal users and those who are old enough to make mature decisions, but most moronic high schoolers drink or smoke weed/cigarettes solely for the purpose of fitting in. Find me one teenager that has decided to do so on their own without any influence from their friends and smokes/drinks alone.[/QUOTE]
There is a difference between weed culture and weed. The OP is acting like they're the same thing. I agree that weed culture can be messed up, with kids smoking it just to fit in, or because they think it's cool. But some people researched the effects, and made the educated decision that they want to try weed under a controlled circumstance, and if they like the effects, they will keep doing it, in moderation.
[editline]09:26PM[/editline]
OP, no one is telling you to smoke weed. Everyone's just trying to let you know it's not as bad as you think.
I don't think the OP is coming back, the rest of us know the deal, we should just let the thread die.
I'm so fucking high right now, this thread is hilarious!
People can do whatever they want, get the dick out of your ass, OP, it's not your problem.

[QUOTE=Abrown516;20355744]TLDR: I want to kill people who smoke weed.QUOTE]
Well thanks asshole >:(
Just because someone has A CONE doesn't make them HORRID PEOPLE.
I have never smoked pot in my life.
I never plan to smoke pot in the rest of my life.
And OP, you're still an idiot from my viewpoint.
[editline]03:17PM[/editline]
You can't run everyone's lives. On top of that, I can name a hundred things worse than weed. Get over yourself, you're not better than anyone else because you hate it so much.

I don't smoke weed because I think I'm cool, I do it to get a different perspective and to relax and enjoy myself.
OP You are close-minded. I can only hope that you will realize the error in your way of thinking when you grow up.
Oh come on, it's only fucking WEED. You treat it like fucking smack or something..
Gonna light up a bowl in spite of the OP

Is OP idiot?
Yeah.
Never lit one up and don't plan to. Just to let you know.
I thought this was a Ryu-Gi thread from the name.
