[QUOTE=Socram;20182080]You don't get it, my arguement is not that this particular doctor is not qualified or non-existent. It's just these charts and table cite no evidence, just a name and some numbers.
These are just people's opinions if they can't back it up with some sort of real evidence, an actual study or SOMETHING.[/QUOTE]
If that's your argument, then you're right. These are the opinions of experts, not an objective study.
I'm not dedicating my life to studying drug addiction, they are. If I'm going to trust anyone to rate addiction severity, it would probably be dudes like that.
I think their ratings are an indication of how an informed person might rate these substances. I agree that they can't be cited as evidence of anything else.

Alright, you have me there. I don't want this thread to go downhill as a result of my bickering and such, so I'll wrap this up.
My main point was that the graph itself seemed misleading and appeared unofficial, perhaps even fabricated, which i demonstrated with my stupid joke graph. While I am not saying these numbers are wrong, I have to say that these sorts of things are very difficult to quantify and I would prefer if these graph had some sort of real studies or something to back them up. Also the ranking seemed flat out incorrect in some areas, but that's just based off hearsay and my own knowledge.
That is all ha.
no dont u wil get addicted and die!!

[QUOTE=ShukaidoX;20181186]alcohol is worse for you than pot by far.[/QUOTE]
A glass of wine a day is actually found to extend one's lifespan.

oh look it's the token troll bitching about potheads
If you have never smoked before or have asthma, don't try it because;
a) You won't be able to smoke it properly (you will just cough and splutter)
b) you won't enjoy it (for the same reasons)
Make weed brownies like an above poster suggested
Or just don't bother at all
Don't do it. It's bad for you.
My friend has asthma and he smoked weed a couple times. He's still alive.
Just keep the inhaler handy.

Alcohol still kills 85,000 people a year in America whereas weed kills 0.

A glass of wine [b]A Day[/b] is good. Alcohol kills, yes, but only if you drink it more than a lot.
Those numbers you have are from stupid drinkers who drink 6 cases of beer a day. Those people are killed. Harmless drinking such as a glass of wine with dinner can indeed improve your body.
[QUOTE=Dan The Man;20182522]Alcohol still kills 85,000 people a year in America whereas weed kills 0.[/QUOTE]
Because it's much easier to overdose on alcohol than it is on weed. This doesn't contradict or disagree with what I said earlier, though.
This argument isn't worth having with the people who haven't figured out that weed is safe yet. I'll say it again - 8 years and I haven't lost my health. I haven't lost my logic either - still love programming and science and reading and writing.
All that's filling their brain is "that's bad".. they've been indoctrinated into this notion - the logic ends right there. That's why, when they come into this thread, all they can say is "that's bad" and any compelling information is completely absent.

It's only red wine I recall reading.
Weed has motivated me to get a job and be a productive member of society.

Good idea.

[QUOTE=Conscript;20181402]that doesn't really look right at all. which is surprising because it's NIDA. how is alcohol withdrawal worse then heroin withdrawal? cigs are more addictive then heroin?
you shouldn't have a problem then. find out if any of your friends smoke and see if they can hook you up or let you smoke with them. preferably the latter. more fun[/QUOTE]
You can die from alcohol withdraw, you can't die from heroin withdraw.
My cuzin used to use heroin, he quit and he's still smoking ciggs.
Weed helps me to sleep, and to be more happy in my life. It just feels great and I do it every-day before going to bed. Sometimes I do some wake-and-bakes, but it's like 3 times a week.

1) Don't quote large images, use thumb tags.

[QUOTE=fuck you;20181067]However, I have mild asthma as long as I can remember, and I am 15 years old now, which effects my physical activities alot.
Smoking makes asthma worst, no? Well how about weed?
Any asthmatic weed smokers here?
I would like to take a few puffs and get high, other then taking a few puffs and going to the hospital from an asthma attack.

Fuck, wrong forum, move this to Drug Discussion plox[/QUOTE]
Im 15 and I have mild asthma and I smoke weed. Just bring you inhaler.
