Hmm you may have a point there actually I did have a virus when I was younger I used to get dizzy and vomit for like a year I had it. And I may of gone through depersonalization but either way I did come out of this state and when I started using marijuana my life got better but then got worse as I used it more. If it was really harmless then why would these symptoms come out even more?.
I now suffer from tinnitus from that event too.

Either that, or your weed was laced with something.

I doubt it I've tried with many different dealers and got the same results.

Because when you're high, your subconscious mind is amplified.
wow weed doesn't hurt you but it still doesn't change the fact that you are doing something illegal

Everyone breaks the law one way or another.
I still don't know who to trust about all this - both sides of it seem really biased.
This is a quote I found on IMDB on the boards of Pineapple Express(!). In debates about weed, this occurs far too often.

What do people justify using weed by saying that it's not as bad as alcohol or tobacco?
It's such an idiotic method of persuasion. I've seen a lot of poor actions being justified by their "virtue" of not being the worst case scenario. It's on the same level of idiocy as the KKK justifying their behavior by saying they're not as bad as Hitler.
For whatever reason, people feel as though pointing out a hypocrisy in society somehow equates to reason. But the logic is flawed. It sounds less like you're suggesting that marijuana should be legally accepted and more like tobacco and alcohol should be banned. It doesn't help that supporters of various substances fumble around arguments like a child learning how to walk. "Well, I may smoke weed, but at least I'm not injecting heroin into my scrotum!" Yes, that is the pinnacle of intelligent debate. Wonderful.
Now, logically, actions that only cause harm to the recipient should not be outlawed, because it goes against human rights. It falls under "the pursuit of happiness" (which was originally the pursuit of property but I agree with the change), and in the same vein as being able to make a movie, or being able to scratch your own back. As long as you're not negatively affecting anyone else (and by the way, don't do it near other people who don't want it around them), then society should not concern itself with policing morality.
But for the love of all things, STOP believing that the moronic assertion of X being less negative than Y somehow justifies the occurrence of X. Because it doesn't, and it just makes you look like a retard.[/quote]
I think smoking it is fun but you should take care of business first. Don't go to school or work high. Same as alcohol. Be responsible about it.

I don't expect logic to be a participant in an intellectual conversation about the legality of a drug because one side of the conversation is using that drug at the time of the conversation.
Which brings me to ask:
[highlight]How many people in this thread are currently high?[/highlight]
I just got sleepy, felt like my mouth was filled with fucking sand, same goes with my eyes. And I could eat shitloads of candy.
Sucks.
I never found anything bad about weed other than short term memory loss, I actually like it since it chills me out. I can live without it though :p.

Which is why is should be legalized. Less people in jail for doing something that's not really that bad at all.

stop smoking dirt lol
Here is my stance on drug usage and what should be legal;
Marijuana should be legal because it has never been associated with any form of cancer or organ damage.
Cocaine, heroin, crack, PCP, meth, and any other designer drug should say illegalized because they actually do have PROFOUND effects on mental and physical health (IE: Heroin WILL kill you, Cocaine causes brain damage, Meth just fucks you up, PCP gives extremely violent highs, and Crack is just plain dumb.)
:350:
Well I actually support the legalisation of all drugs. Even if they are dangerous it would help improve public knowledge on the drug, increase the purity and with government accepting them more treatments could be developed for addictees
This thread has earned my seal of approval. :350:

[highlight]Does it really fucking matter what state of mind I am in if I am making a legitimate point?[/highlight]
I really don't see the logic in arresting people for smoking a plant in their own homes. Do you?
You need to add the research about:
Myth: Marijuana kills good brain cells after being stored in fat.
Fact: Replace this with information about the monkeys that they pumped marijuana smoke into, with oxygen, and thats why they lost brain cells.
I smoke occasionally, but we always have a few simple rules.
Never smoke while little kids are present.
Never pressure anyone into doing it if they really don't want too.
Never give weed to people who think weed makes you cool.
[QUOTE=trent_roolz;14783266]I agree with last_apoc. I really don't think that it causes 0 deaths either, as THC is pretty dangerous after a whole bunch is staying in your system. The only reason that people even try these damn drugs is because the health classes and other school/government owned things ham it up really bad. "Oh, weed is bad for you and one time can and will kill you 100% of the time hurrrrrr". That's not what we need, we need the real facts, and then people can decide for themselves if it's worth it. It's not in most cases, but in weed's case it is.[/QUOTE]
You are SO fucking smart! All of my friends are like "No you're stupid dare is rite dare is always ritelololololololz!!!1"
Pot is fun. Look at a joint i smoked the other day with some people i had just met

(not my hand)
Smoke plenty of it and you will run in to brain problems. More specifically, memory, attention, learning, and impinges on the central nervous system , ect.
It is as additive as any other drug, and does damage like any other drug.
You can argue it hasn't happened to you (Yet) but it don't change the fact it does that. And why do i care? Well i really don't, if to do drugs and you want to destroy you're body go for it. But don't become a burden on the state, tax payers shouldn't have to pay for your stupid choices.
Bookmarked + subscribed, excellent thread.
I have a friend who goes out and gets massively drunk every weekend. He also thinks he has better morals than I because he doesn't smoke pot. "I don't care if you want to do it, I'm just not going to mess up my body like that."; If only he paid any attention at all to how harmful drinking is.
I would also like to note that this friend (A misnomer, he's not really a friend since he started drinking) gets pretty tense/violent when he's drunk. Oh, and he's been slowly spiraling into depression.
my friend seriously hates that i do weed. Despite what i tell him he denies it . So i started showing him studies and all, after all that he just says "Did you read these?" "They said that smoking it is bad for your lungs, it's not healthy"
Well no shit smoking is bad. He refuses to belive weed is really not that addictive and that smoking it fucks up your mind. Seriously the wrost high i got was when i got extremely dizzy and kept falling but that was from the 2 bottles of beer i drank.
FUN FACT!: Weed heightens drunkness!
All smoking weed does is release endorphins into your body just like any pain killer or orgasims you have and it makes you feel good. All those studies if you really look at them with a unbiased mind they make no sense at all
One study I saw said "A 2007 study by the Canadian government found cannabis smoke contained more toxic substances than tobacco smoke The study determined that marijuana smoke contained 20 times more ammonia, and five times more hydrogen cyanide and nitrogen oxides than tobacco smoke."
THIS MAKES NO SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How would that shit get into a plant that grows from the earth? It doesn't naturally grow in the plant therefore it is bullshit. Even Penn and teller support the legalization of weed
