You are all retarded, it doesnt matter what Cali does, why???? Because it is a Federal law as well. Numerous drug busts have taken place in States where it is already legal. They have been busting people who have cancer and a permit to grow as well. The fact remains it is against federal law.
If it gets legalized someone should make a reality tv-show on it:
Who gets to overdose the fastest:
People sitting around day after day and trying to do it
I'd be hilarious and at least on par in terms of sophistication with most shows that run in the UK

you don't have to take my word for it look it up, and if you don't believe the articles keep going at it. Do it anyway.DeathSnipa1992 said:
No one seems to understand that all of my posts don't condemn people from smoking pot. I really don't care. Keep going, when you end up wearing your tinfoil hat shaking in the corner about a 9/11 conspiracy your not going to be irritating me anymore.
I had 3 statements and you keep deleting the one about prolonged exposure and toxicity. Get a dictionary and look up retardation and tell me that none of your pothead friends end up like that. I dare you. Schizophrenia is mental illness and can escalate to whatever is going on in the flea circus that is the pot heads brain.Yog Sothoth said:

"Schizophrenia (pronounced /ˌskɪtsəˈfrɛniə/ or /ˌskɪtsəˈfriːniə/), from the Greek roots schizein (σχίζειν, "to split") and phrēn, phren- (φρήν, φρεν-, "mind") is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a mental disorder characterized by abnormalities in the perception or expression of reality (sound familiar yet YOG?) . It most commonly manifests as auditory hallucinations, paranoid or bizarre delusions, or disorganized speech and thinking with significant social or occupational dysfunction. Onset of symptoms typically occurs in young adulthood,[1] with approximately 0.4?0.6%[2][3] of the population affected." took me 4 seconds and wikipedia to look this up
I never told anyone to stop, keep going. Its just less schizo's making websites and folding $20 bills and making profits off of a larger paranoid base.
what the hell do I care.
I'd like to see it happen, but I unfortunately doubt that it will. It's still America after all, and I have my doubts if thats actually within a states power. Now, I know it actually is, but I doubt that many people are gonna buy into the idea, and I think that external pressure will play a key role. Every state around it is gonna SHIT.
All that being said, california is probably the one state that could very easily stay as is. If the rumours are correct, it doesnt sound too different from canada, meaning that its generally socially acceptable, and that the law isn't really looking for you. That, and the fact they're a stones throw a way from BC, kinda tells me they should enjoy the good thing they have.
Like, legalizing pot would be nice, but when you've got a situation where your practically overwhelmed with the variety and quantity of bud around you like in Canada and Cali, and no ones stopping you from smoking it, why opt to let the government take over?
Cause governments cant grow dope.

I wouldn't be opposed to legalizing pot, but I wouldn't let it go beyond that to any other illicit drugs.
To those who say "it's not/is as bad as cigarettes", the smoke is not what gives you lung cancer. It is the "tar" in the cigarettes, which is the amount of toxic chemicals. Cannabis contains 1/3 the amount of tar contained in a cigarette.

Does anyone, ANYONE have some VALID (and that means a truly independant report) scientifical data, a study or even just a chemical test's results for carcinogens? I say this because everyone here says different things about this drug without anything to back up either side, so its just people saying "NO" "YES" "NO" ad infinitum (I must admit, I only read the first page).

We could go until we're both blue in the face throwing various credible medical "articles" at each other, trying to prove a point. The fact is, they don't convince anybody.
Making a blanket statement about casual/habitual pot smokers on the other hand, says alot about your own personality.
Not all pot smokers are slow witted, or paranoid. Instead, they are represented by the lowest common denominators of their own social group, like so many people are. There's plenty of "stoners" that would impress anybody based on their accomplishments and intelligence, just as I'm sure there are plenty of self inflated pricks that really arent all that bad when they come off their high horse and treat people like people, regardless.
Utter bullshit. I'm not suggesting it's totality harmless at all but it's on par for causing cancer through smoking and THAT'S legal. AND if you listen to substance abuse specialists they say there are three main problems... "alcohol, alcohol and alcohol" all the rest pale in comparison. But you hardly hear of that because it IS legal. Besides, we all know what happened when the States made booze illegal, alcoholism was far worse, and say "hello" to the Mafia.pantsoffdanceoff said:
I live in South Australia where pot possession is simply a small fine, as is growing a plant in your back yard. Society hasn't collapsed. And before you ask... no, I don't smoke it anymore OR drink booze. ALL substance abuse is harmful to varying degrees in my opinion but outlawing it is not the solution, it just creates more problems. And though I don't do it, smoking a couple of joints on the weekend does not constitute abuse imo.
Legalize it... don't criticize it...
Personally, regardless of what the US Government might say, I own my body. If I want to base jump, sky dive, ride a ninja without a helmet, commit assisted suicide or eat baby asprin until I exploded then that's MY business, not yours.
Drug law however, is the problem in this country. As simple look at prohibition will tell you that. Plus, we as a society are getting no tax money from the number one cash crop of a lot of states.
Let people do what they want and get us our cut.

When did ANYONE ever overdose on weed? Maybe people that are on certain kinds of medications. I've smoked over an ounce in one sitting and I didn't OD. A rat would have to smoke over 1,000 in an hour to get a lethal dose of THC. If weed is bad for you, why are there two receptors in your brain devoted to the up take of THC?pantsoffdanceoff said:
Actually there are studies that show that it is worse than regular cigarettes, but that is not really the point of this thread.
I believe legalizing drugs would be best. As long as people that do make decisions to smoke marijuana do not come crawling to the government for hand-outs and welfare because they now have lung cancer or some new study shows marijuana causes something else, etc etc. Insurance companies can charge more to cover them, and all other sorts of things that legalizing will entail.
As long as people are to take responsibility for their own actions, and stop relying on a welfare state, I'm for it. If you do it, live by it.

Dude, what are you talking about? I'm in Mensa and I've smoked pot since I was 13. I was even high when I took my IQ test, so by your logic I am actually a genius but because I'm stoned most of the time I'm lower my IQ. I've been a straight A student in college. I graduate Phi Theta Kappa and am on the Dean's List. So even thought I'm stoned and lower my IQ that means that I am still smarter than most of the people in my college, because the pot head seams to be the only one who likes to answer questions or has any clue what is going on. I've never had a "deacrese" in my learning, since I'm still going to school and still getting A's. And when I'm really high, I have plenty of common sense, I just realize that NO ONE ELSE HAS ANY! How many people are born, sober, with no common sense? Should they be made illegal? I think everyone needs to shut up and smoke a pipe so we can all relax and realize that there is more to life than working it away.Masika said:
