[QUOTE=TrueWolF;20245239]The effects of weed is not imediate (aside from the euphoria), it's a gradual build up short term memory loss[/QUOTE]
Really? 'cause I know a guy who is almost 40 now and he said he was stoned almost every day for most of his adult life until the last, most recent few years. He recalls his entire weekend, every day from the time he woke up 'til he went to bed (and he has several times) in detail. He still smokes weed a couple times a week.
Explain.

If you smoke a jay a day every day of course you're going to suffer.

(I kept in your bad grammar too)
One of these are legal...
[QUOTE=GreaseGunner;20243971]If you have to do drugs to have an exciting life you probably need to be on facepunch less and outside with friends more.[/QUOTE]
Well, I'm so sorry that sometimes I want to kick back on the weekend with my brother or some friends, smoke a bowl and fuck around on NHL 10 or something. We can't all have balls to the wall, speed limit breaking joy ride, roller coaster riding, skydiving, extreme to the max lifestyles.
Oh wait we don't have to because you don't determine how people should live their lives or what others find exciting, I forgot for a second.
I miss the anti-weed people
This is one of the worst websites ever. Weed shouldn't be illegal.
Tobacco is more harmful than Marijuana, yet Tobacco is legal and Marijuana is illegal. Our Government isn't very smart.

-[B]Marijuana is addictive. More teens are in treatment with a primary diagnosis of marijuana dependence than for all other illicit drugs combined.
[/B] This is blatantly untrue, I'm sad to say, marijuana is habitual, and only that. There is not one proven case of somebody going through physical withdrawals from not having THC in their system.
[/QUOTE]
Might have been posted, but the fact that they are being treated is true. What is untrue is the fact that it's usually either assraping in prison or going to the treatment facility even though there is no dependence like you said.
I found out the reason people go to "treatment" for Marijuana, is because they are either forced to go to jail, or go to rehab. What would you do?
[QUOTE=KSI;20253779]I found out the reason people go to "treatment" for Marijuana, is because they are either forced to go to jail, or go to rehab. What would you do?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, usually people go to rehab, hence the people going to the rehab for weed.

Like this one time I linked to a bunch of research papers in Science. Everyone respected the fair and neutral peer-reviewed source then.[/QUOTE]
Which I replied to and you ignored because you're afraid of being wrong:
[QUOTE=franz;19823286]I can't believe you still haven't moved on from that argument. You're still arguing for the credibility of your articles and ignoring what they even say.

It's well known that cannabis sacrifices short term memory for deeper thinking and greater creativity. This article states that there is temporary disintegration that occurs only while the subject is high. It doesn't state how the test was done or what "disintegration" even means in this case. Pretty useless study for your argument.

Rats are not the same as human beings. They obviously react differently to cannabis. I don't have any problems learning after using cannabis for years. I feel that I sometimes have an advantage over people who don't, as it helps me solve my problems using a different point of view.

Cannabis affects brain structures during prenatal development. I can't believe you thought this article would prove a point.
Overall, if these articles are your entire argument (which they seem to be), your knowledge of drugs and drug culture is severely limited. Though that point has already been made.[/QUOTE]
Now you're using words like 'fair and neutral.' Does someone in your family work for Fox News or something?
I love how impossible it is to defend drug usage. You can use all the fancy drug logic you want but in the end you're still a druggie and nobody but other druggies will respect your opinion.
Same goes for bigots.
I'm not a bigot i'm a hypocrite.

It's such a shame they didn't do anything that really mattered. Go find me a rescue swimmer that uses opium every night then goes out and saves lives.

you know what just shut up were in the bible it says that smoking is a sin
