[QUOTE=Doriol;22941121]Are you a straight edge Christian kid, or something? Have you ever properly used recreational drugs?[/QUOTE] No I haven't, and I'm a Deist, so sorry, not a Jesus nut. I haven't used them because I haven't ever needed to. Like I said, the only reason to REALLY (Not counting peer pressure one time use stuff the kids are doing nowadays.) use drugs is if somewhere down the line you fucked up to the point where you find it necessary to make anything funny/tolerable because, chances are your in a depression of some sort. I don't care if people use them, I'm just saying the world would be better off and a generally happier place if people didn't.
Nobody needs to use recreational drugs, and having a miserable life isn't a requirement to use them. You may as well make the argument that people who use the internet, play video games, or use any other form of entertainment, are miserable fucks. It's just as stupid.
[QUOTE=Led Zeppelin;22940643]That's great that your parents managed to give you a good life. I still think 19 is too young. Assuming you're going down the college path, a child is going to seriously hamper you throughout college/university. Not only that, but if you're taking classes, working and making enough money to provide for a kid is going to be even more difficult. Also, I doubt the baby just happened to find that and mess with it. I'd be willing to bet she posed it like that.[/QUOTE] I guess it depends on where you live but here in New Zealand if I wanted to study while I have a baby then I can easily work part time and we have places where mothers can take their babies with them so they can study because some campuses have a creche and what not.

A company doesn't care if it "was only that one time" all they know is that you did it, and, while marijuana might not be addictive nearly all the other drugs are. They can ruin a persons life ever so quickly. We were always warned against them in school, why not listen? Because you want to be a rebel, eh? Live your own life? Sometimes you just have to be a sheep for the sake of the species as a whole. I believe you mentioned the war on drugs earlier, no? and how all that money and manpower goes towards something so trivial. There are two sides to every coin. If the recreational drug community wasn't dependent on their drugs then they could have surrendered just as easily as the government. That money could have been reallocated and for all we know we could be having this conversation from a space colony right now.

The only reason recreational soft drug use can fuck your career opportunities up, even if you're responsible, is because it's criminalised. [editline]balls[/editline] Same reason you're "warned" about drugs like marijuana in school. There's nothing inherently wrong with the drug, but try their best to convince you that you're going to go to hell if you smoke it.

Fuck another drug debate thread, thought we already had one for the month.
[QUOTE=Doriol;22941566]Going to stop you here.

Were it to fade back into obscurity it would eventually fall off the radar and receive a fresh start later on. I find the whole thing similar to womens rights. They tried for there rights so many times, but the world wasn't quite ready for it, so, they backed off and waited another decade and tried it again until sufficient change had been made and their legislation's began to pass. That is what recreational drugs need to do, especially in on of the most religious based countries left in the modern world. I don't personally have a problem with it, but keeping it out there isn't the way to get the change you want. It will only breed hatred and resentment. Though the whole "organized" crime scene isn't quite helping the cause either. I'll close in saying this, I forsee two ends to this whole thing. A. Everyone accepts and partakes in the use of recreational drugs, B. It's taken beyond the current point of criminalization to an extreme close to the inquisition. I really don't care which one happens, so long as it finally gets resolved. Were wasting too much of our resources on things like this, not just this mind you, every little thing. If we had expanded outside of the planet we wouldn't need to worry about any of it. Somewhere along the way we forgot that the ultimate goal of humanity is just to survive as long as possible. Until we all come back to realizing this, we will continue to sit here on forums having meaningless discussions about unimportant topics. EDIT: Removed "Exactly, if you had taken the time to process the remainder of my post you would see my views on that as well." seeing as your recent edit proved that you indeed did finish it.

The people aren't suppose to surrender to the will of the government, the government is suppose to work in favor of the people and their rights. Don't blame the drug war on people who merely want to enjoy their drugs, blame it on the people who stick their goddamn noses in their business. Jesus Christ the logic behind this is so monumentally flawed I can't believe it.

Better question: Why the hell would the mom have a bong, but deny using it?
[QUOTE=Jad Hinto;22941922]Better question: Why the hell would the mom have a bong, but deny using it?[/QUOTE] Best question asked.
[QUOTE=Jad Hinto;22941922]Better question: Why the hell would the mom have a bong, but deny using it?[/QUOTE] Maybe I overlooked something, but I'm pretty certain she didn't said she's never used the bong.

Baby on Bong
But dammnit we need a bong hittin' baby to challenge that Indonesian chain smoker baby.
Now seriously I am not against global consumption of weed, but I am pretty sure that it IS dangerous for toddlers. Pretty much ANY dense smoke can hurt developing lungs, not to mention what can THC do to brain in those stages.
That'd be funny if she's the 1/10 who actually uses a bong for tobacco.

But, her dad is fucking loaded and is buying them a house, paying bills, employing the son at his work, buying their food. Everything you could imagine.
[QUOTE=Predat0r;22943380] Duder, he had his finger in the stem. Definitely no smoke. [/quote] Yeah, but it's about the principle. You don't let [b]toddlers[/b] who do NOT really get the risks play with unloaded guns, do you? [editline]06:57AM[/editline] My point is, that weed might be harmless for adults, but isn't harmless for toddlers, so they should be strongly protected from in, including avoidance of building familiarity with the bong at this age.

[QUOTE=chucknorriz;22942448] Were drugs to fall off the map there would be no need to teach against them. It's a valid strategy and calling it asinine is in itself illogical. [/quote] So you want all medication to fall off the map as well? Last i checked, more people abuse prescription drugs like crazy. Not to mention the fact that simply knowing how chemicals move around in the body and what effects they give when xxx happens would give rise to designer drugs. Not to mention this: [url]http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1893946,00.html[/url] Or the fact that having it remain illegal only creates drug cartels and organized crime, get rid of their source of income, get rid of the crime.

But the thousands of photos of babys with beer bottles are acceptable.
This is what really irritates me about the spineless news shows (in Australia e.g. [I]A Current Affair[/I] and [I]Today Tonight[/I]) they just RUIN peoples fucking lives, and they DON'T CARE. All that they care about is getting good ratings,so they get up in people(who are clearly very sorry) and try to get them angry, and then they wonder why they get punched in the face. I hate the media so much, it should be legal to punch these assholes in the face.
