[QUOTE=Boyblunder;17202805]...sure are a lot of people using sexual preference as a derogatory term here...
How about this?
Let people choose THEIR OWN lifestyle. Instead of arguing over facts trying to prove eachother wrong admit that some people want to do something and some don't.
This goes to everyone here. Not just pro-pot or anti-pot.[/QUOTE]
Allowing people to do something simply because they want to do it and then defending it because "it's their lifestyle" isn't sustainable and is a very stupid thing to do indeed (depending on the subject in question).
Pot isn't one of those pro/anti-skub arguments, there are actual issues to be discussed here and arguing over facts is exactly what we should be doing.
[QUOTE=professional;17202838]Note there has never been a properly funded government study on Marijuana. Every study that has been done has been done on a very short term basis, and with piss poor conditions and funding.
The government has never had an incentive [B]to[/B] find anything, because why would they bother wasting time and money on something they've already written off?[/QUOTE]
The general population are full of tools.

Right, people shouldn't smoke, drink alcohol, drink coffee, eat candy either.
I wasn't saying it's their lifestyle. It's a "lifestyle choice". Much like smoking cigarettes.

You seem to think I was arguing against pot.
I don't really know, though, as I can't tell at all what you're arguing.

I'm arguing for arguments to stop. I'm perfectly fine with marijuana, I smoke it myself, but I think this entire thread, on both sides of the field, is kind of ridiculous.

I'm cool with discussion... I just noticed a lot of name-calling and anger. Argument != discussion.
I only don't smoke weed because i have never had it, and at 18 it feels like an accomplishment so far.

Have you ever been offered it
Tried it. Fun. It's not physically addictive, but to some weak-minded people, it can be a bit mentally addictive.

an accomplishment? What have you accomplished? Brainwashed by the government that it's bad because it's "illegal"? You're missing out on a wonderful thing, and EVERYONE should try it atleast once or twice before they can have an opinion on it. If someone's tried it, and they still don't choose to smoke it, then that's their choice. And if they don't want their kids smoking it, that's their choice (but then see, it all comes back down to the kid again), but saying it's bad and all pot heads are junky pieces of shit is a bunch of shit.

Calm down. He never said or implied anything like that.
I'm sure he meant that his accomplishment was that he hadn't had the opportunity in his entire life, something that is rather remarkable actually.
remarkable? Hmm... still definitely not an accomplishment in my opinion
My friend doesn't smoke and he's fine with me smoking. So I don't see why you say non-smokers are prejudice, when some really aren't

Man i totally love smoking weed. I think it's one of the most relaxing things a person can do. It keeps you from worrying, and keeps you going all day long.
I did it for the first time today. The kid I bought it from was extremely paranoid so we wandered around for like a half hour trying to find a "shady spot". We sat down and he started rolling it, I have no clue what he was doing but I could tell he was shitty at it, the joint kept falling apart and the weed was falling onto the ground.
When it was finally finished and I took a few hits it was absolutely nothing like what I was expecting. I must have taken 12 hits and absolutely nothing happened. We walked around for a while smoking it in plain sight because he randomly didn't care anymore, then a cop car drove by and we tossed it. I went home and washed the stink off of myself, everything I drank/ate was practically flavorless and I was extremely tired for the rest of the day. I felt more relaxed than I did before and when I listened to some music it seemed like it was playing in slow motion, but I think it might have just been a placebo effect. I have a sneaking suspicion I smoked oregano...

Some people don't get high the first time they smoke weed.
That could be the problem too.

[QUOTE=ilw;17201719]im a stoner and i can admit im addicted to smoking it. erryday
i mean, i COULD quit if i actually put some effort into trying, but its basically to the point where i just really wanna get high. i mean, why not? i COULD be sober, but that's not as good as being high. So why not just toke up whenever possible?
again, it's not a chemical addiction, this isn't heroin or even nicotine were talkin about here. You can get addicted to weed the same way you can get addicted to eating at mcdonalds everyday, or playing a video game(for example: WOW). It's an addiction, yes, ill admit that, but not a life changing one. Quitting is possible if you try hard enough, and alot easier

Yes, but why would you want to? That's such a stupid racial term. Cracker? What the fuck, man. The person or people responsible for that name aren't very original or clever.

Stop breathing air in an O2 rich atmosphere!
The only reason I haven't smoked is because it's illegal, and I don't like risking getting in trouble. However I am all for legalization.

truth.
And the government fuels that pot is bad to keep people straight, and under their control.
Whereas us stoners, you hear us shitting on the government all the time, because we know what they are really planning...
Like this recession, fully planned. they are throwing the world into poverty, to kill off most of the already starving population... And make life harder for those who do have money [and a loop effect; there will be somewhat less stoners as they can no longer afford to support themselves and have to quit].
The government may look good, giving people stimulus packages, but really they are sick bastards.
All you guys might want to concider visiting the Netherlands sometime.
Our government allows use and sales of weed under certain circumstances. This way they can regulate the entire flow of cannabis in the country, which results in lowest drug-related crime figures ever. (If you can't beat em, join em).
Besides, there is never a fight or some other criminal activity near a coffeeshop (weed selling points), while every night when the bars/pubs close the police are working overtime there.
Also, weed is not bad for your health. Mental addiction is a possibility (ie. i need a joint before i go to gmod/tf2/bed, else i wont be as good at it.)
o yeah, only smoke it when you are in a good mood, because thc tends to make your current mood WAY stronger.
The governments of the major countries are the evil ones...
The smaller countries like the Netherlands think for themselves, hence weed is legal.
Also, i'm SO moving there when i retire!
I think they should stop war on drugs...
But I still think weed is not so soft drug, maybe just cause I am allergic to it... ( the creeper ).
And after weed high stopped, I just feel like I had got some sort of damage to my brain...
strangely hallucinogens doesn't do that to me.
