I'm sorry but that sentence...I had to rate you for it.
What happened to the bill legalizing it recreationally in Washington and California?
[QUOTE=Gmod_Fan77;19737336]I'm just a bit annoyed that everyone is constantly like "SHIT MAN DON'T DOWNTALK WEED MAAAAAN IT'S THE BEST THING EVER MAAAAAAN IT SHOULD BE LEGALIZED IN A WORLDWIDE MOVEMENT MAAAAN."
Marijuana is illegal and harmful. It has great medical potential and does give a good feeling of euphoria when smoked, though one can't deny there are risks - both physical and legal - that come along with marijuana.[/QUOTE]
Because there is no reason to be against it, as long as you weren´t buttraped by your stoned uncle when you were a child.
And there is no reason for it to be legal. Alcohol and cigarettes are far more harmfull, and they´re oh so legal. That´s why most people don´t care of the fact that it´s illegal. It makes no sense. Also the cannabis propaganda pisses people off. All the ridicilous Drug Free America adds and stuff.
I have never even tried weed, but im still for it. But i wouldn´t want it to be legalized. Only decriminalized. That way it´s better for everyone. No sense in throwing people to jail for anything cannabis related.
Everyones going to die eventually, and i would at least want to live a couple of years less and enjoy my life, rather than avoid everything unhealthy, and live a few years longer.
Check this out.

[QUOTE=Gmod_Fan77;19736927]I want to ask one question: why is Facepunch so pro-weed? There are no benefits to it, theorized disadvantages, and it's a waste of money. Really doesn't have anything positive going for it.[/QUOTE]
You could say the EXACT same thing about computer gaming.

Wow, great point. :aaaaa:
I usually get baked just to play video games, it's like double the enjoyment, and you can play games you were previously bored of to milk as much fun as you want out of them.
[QUOTE=L0LIMB0RED;19737979]I don't know if you know this yet, but there are risks for just about everything. Driving has both physical and legal risks, you could get in a wreck and injure yourself or get a speeding ticket. Eating has risks, you can get fat, and your general health depends on what you eat. I can go on forever. Just because something has some health risks doesn't mean it's such a horrible thing.
Let people enjoy what they want, your constant repetition of the same argument is not changing anyone's minds. Coming from your attitude, you must not like taking any kind of risks, sitting around being a "law abiding model citizen" usually won't get you far. (No, not risks as in drugs, risks as in everyday life kind of risks, investment risks, protesting for your rights, etc.)[/QUOTE]
But driving and eating are positive things. You get to places you need to go by driving, you survive by eating. Smoking weed, however, has no good effects.

[QUOTE=OrDnAs;19737475]Dude, you smoke weed, good, but when I come with an argument don't go batshit insane becuase is anti-weed. Can't you accept some facts?
Yes, I do recognize cannabis as a medicinal plant, that's why it has been legalised in some countries/states[/QUOTE]
Exactly. It's like these people worship weed and support it no matter what. Even the slightest mention of negative facts about it makes them go insane.
Smoking ganja is good for the mind, in my opinion. I find weed enlightening. I smoke weed when I work as it makes me concentrate more on my specific task a lot more and I believe my work is better. Also, smoking ganj can be very personal and spiritual.
JAH RASTAFARI!

There's nothing positive about driving or eating, they're completely neutral things. Have you even read the thread? There's plenty of good effects from smoking weed.

[QUOTE=Gmod_Fan77;19737110]So you're willing to damage your lungs, spend $35 on the drug, and commit a crime, all to get a temporary high?[/QUOTE]
I bet you are just one of those people who never stumbled across a situation where you'd get to smoke some. That's why you gotta make it sound so bad.
Committing a crime, $35 (give or take) just for a temporary high. Fuck it, man. It's a great way to kill time, the effects are hilarious! It's fun, it's exciting!
I mean honestly, you are not interested at all?
And about the lungs, well yeah I'm not denying the fact that you are after all inhaling smoke, and as disgusting as it may sound, I don't think "pure" weed is all that bad, unlike cigarettes.
[editline]12:03AM[/editline]
But sometimes when I think about it.. are all the "Good sides" from weed only psychological? Well, mostly. Sure it can kill some cancer cell-thingys but anyway?

Disprove my statements. I have several professional sources on the damage it can cause, now let's see you get even 2 professional, legit sources that state benefits of recreational weed smoking.

Lol I fall under this category because I hate cigarettes. Cigarettes are much worse for you of course.

feh this really isn't very positive but it shows it's potential.

Cool. Now you made all your arguments regarding on weeds healthy issues meaningless
[QUOTE=Gmod_Fan77;19737014]Weeeelllll maaaaan, it gets you sooooo highhhhh maaaaaaan.
Not a good reason to use it. I want a legitimate reason for recreational use (medical use is understandable) that isn't a typical stoner's answer.[/QUOTE]
Despite what you think, there are many people who smoke besides the sole fact of smoking.
For myself, ever since I've tried it I've had NO problems with depression. It made me from an emo bitch to a stoner who is socially accepted, and I actually do better in school. My dad pays me in weed for my good grades, and it's a great motivator lawl.
I could barely ass myself to get up and do something, like clean my room. After a bowl or two, I feel as if I could get off my ass and do whatever I want. I've gotten tons of school, housework, and normal work done while stoned, and it's a lot more fun.
Being a stoner is probably one of the most fun lifestyles anyone could ask for.
I don't drink, and I smoke 1 cigarette a day at most. I'm as healthy and fit as ever.
It's legality is a bullshit reason not to enjoy it. As long as you're discreet, you will have no problem. I've smoked in public places, maybe in front of people, and I've yet to get caught/punished for it. Both my parents smoke on occasion and they're as chill as ever.
[QUOTE=varj;19749273]Cool. Now you made all your arguments regarding on weeds healthy issues meaningless[/QUOTE]
This^ many people only smoke as much as a normal person partakes of alcohol. Alcohol is much worse for you than bud. Therefore your argument is meaningless. Yes there are some (including me) who smoke several times a week (sometimes a day). But you'll find that many people are only weekend warriors. And I can bet you there are many more alcoholics than there are stoners.

This man knows what it is.
Ever hear on the news of people beating their wife and children while stoned? Nah. Alcohol, however, lawl.
[editline]10:45PM[/editline]
I'm not going to bash or judge people who don't use it, unlike other people. It's up to you, but I have my own personal reasons for doing it and I hate being labled and instantly judged for a hobby
[QUOTE=Gmod_Fan77;19737148]Think of it. You're wasting your money on something illegal and detrimental to your health, all to get stoned? Sounds a bit stupid, doesn't it?[/QUOTE]
You ever buy McDonalds, soda, candy bar,? All detrimental to a persons health.
But why do they buy it then? Enjoyment ofcourse.
The legality issue is pretty tricky and if you're scared by that read up on the history of the way the drug became illegal. That will help, and a little history never hurt anyone.
Once again your arguments are easily broken down and diminished. Mostly because you are talking from a theoretical viewpoint with no real world experience. (Ofcourse I'm guessing but this guess is pretty educated by reading your other posts.)
You've never been stoned before (I take it) so how are you even arguing without bias.
My history with this drug is lengthy, and I can tell you that there is propoganda on both sides of the argument. Don't be stupid, use in moderation and you'll be a fine productive member of your community.

Within the next five years man. It's coming, I can hear itttt
some kid ate weed brownies before coming to class and in the middle of the class he started muttering as if he couldn't talk and he said he couldn't move his body and he was afraid of dying so he had to be put into a wheelchair as his body was limp as soon as the campus security lifted him up to take him to an ambulance waiting outside.
