[QUOTE=Awegner;21258066]Scientific study shows that smoking a joint is about four times worse than one cigarete, the only problem is that cigaretes are addictive, but then again people can build an addiction to marijuana. Whitch evens the m both out to be pretty harmful for longterm and short.[/QUOTE] .... oh really now, were did you pull that one from? Ok Awegner, lets go through why this is COMPLETELY FALSE one step at a time 1: marijuana does not kill people. 2: marijuana has not killed people 3: no where in RECORDED HISTORY LOOK IT UP FOR YOUR SELF has marijuana killed a single person Are you enlightened now? Next time don't post BS claims, and have sourced links or tell people how to find the information themselves.
I died from maryjuana
[QUOTE=Aaronn;21271877]No I'm questioning how much of an idiot you are to state that weed is an impractical house plant. As for who's going to profit, go look at some articles for who sells the weed and edibles to the various dispensaries in the medical states. I believe someone, from Drug Discussion, stated earlier today that their mom obtained a contract to sell cannabis edibles to a dispensary. There is no doubt that one or more of the tobacco companies will have a hand in selling it if it becomes legal. But will it be as big as tobacco? No. It is very easy to cultivate and prepare yourself. Tobacco is a different matter.[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic when he said that house plants are impractical. Of course there isn't any sarcasm on the internet unless you put [sarcasm] [/sarcasm]
[QUOTE=lazyguy;21270943]Deeper thinking and increased creativity = Cheech and Chong? [editline]08:33PM[/editline] Houseplants. Impractical. Right. The people who will benefit the most will be the tobacco company shareholders.[/QUOTE] Wow, could you be any stupider? Tommy Chong is a bloody genius, he wrote and acted that character to lambast a stereotype, and you are so fucking idiotic you miss that and then attack him as a bigger idiot than yourself? You've never smoked it, and you will still say nothing you think of on it is deep or creative. Throw out your music collection, all of that is inspired by drugs. Also, you show your ignorance again with the house plant comment. Look at Aarons post because he's already said everything. God damn, it's like you attack people that smoke weed like they're stupid, when you are worse yourself.
I think he's just trolling, he shows up in every drug thread that isn't in DD and says the stupidest things he can.
[QUOTE=franz;21271831]As has been pointed out MULTIPLE times before, one who is already lazy won't change by weed. You and your environment are responsible for your personality. Deeper thinking and increased creativity with an intelligent person = Carl Sagan, one example of a man far more important than you will ever be.[/QUOTE] You'll see.

[quote]Yeah, it affects memory while high, but the effects are short lived. Short term memory MAY suffer depending on the person, the strain, the dosage, and the degree the body is used to it, but it doesn't always cause it. I have lots of stoner friends who are just as able to remember things as when they're sober. Hell, go watch Super High Me, and watch how his short term memory improved after 30 days of constant weed smoking, while high over 30 days sober. Right? oh, wait, you're just as bad as the ignorant people saying weed is perfect. It isn't. But it isn't always going to cause memory loss. Short term or otherwise. [/quote] Geeze you people are stupid. I never fucking said it affects long term memory, because it doesn't. However people WILL have a hard time with short term memory when they've been smoking a few joints of high quality bud every day for months. It DOES goes away after the THC gets out of the smokers system. Find me one person who smokes 3 grams or more a day for months and doesn't have bad short term memory. I'm the one who made this thread and put all this information together, and i'm sure i've read that it was proven in a few tests. Weather or not it varies from person to person is not the issue, the fact is that it can fuck with your memory, and if you deny that fact you are either not an experienced weed smoker or just an idiot who thinks there can be nothing in the world that's bad about weed. Trust me, i've smoked weed, sometimes for months every day, and it fucked with my memory, I would forget shit all the time. P.S: I posted this stoned.

I'm not, and have never ever fucking said that it doesn't effect your memory, some people it barely, if at all effects them, some it hits them heavy. Jesus christ. I don't think weed is perfect, and I don't know where anyone gets that from. I KNOW it has problems. And either way, you're ignoring some evidence presented in some places. For instance, how can you just ignore the fact Doug Benson, after 30 days of weed smoking 24/7 had BETTER fucking short term memory than before?

No. You somehow right about the "fact" weed makes everyone stupid and lazy? No, you're already fucking dead wrong. Why do you insist on just ignoring everything? Are you secretly Gmodfan_77? You're acting just like him.
[QUOTE=lazyguy;21276473]You'll see.[/QUOTE] Coming from someone named lazyguy, that doesn't mean much.
My theory: Legalize all drugs and other potentially harmful or addictive substances. Enact some necessary laws such as no driving while high. Then, let those who are dumb enough to go crazy with harmful drugs, such as cocaine and heroine, kill themselves off while setting an example for the rest of society. And to the people stupid enough to think that marijuana is harmful, well then they'll all kill themselves off as well so I guess you won't have to worry anymore. I do not smoke and never will.
A week or two ago I was diagnosed with schizophrenia. They asked me if I had taken any marijuana. I said once when I was 13 (Did a few buckets) and about 6 months ago I used to smoke it heavily every day, but then stopped gradually over a month. I told them I haven't smoked it in ages but they said the short-term effects may be well and good but there are these sort of long-term effects that you have to be careful with. Sometimes they will creep back up on you. I feel stupid as hell now. Just a warning to people, be careful with cannabis. It's happened to me.

You shouldn't smoke if you have any kind of family history with mental illness or symptoms in your past.

I haven't done drugs, but I think it's safe to say that Heroin and similar drugs are very bad, but weed is just fine. It's not harmful at all.
I'd try weed. Except my dad didn't talk to my aunt for 9 years because she dated an ex-drug dealer. :L
[QUOTE=Randy;24070784]It's not harmful at all.[/QUOTE] Wrong, all form of smoking is harmful. Just me nitpicking ya.
[QUOTE=Chicken_Chaser;24072715]Wrong, all form of smoking is harmful. Just me nitpicking ya.[/QUOTE] It doesn't increase your risk of any form of cancer or lung disease, I would classify that as "not harmful".
