While I agree with you that yes people move on to bigger and more dangerous things to get high, because the quality of your pot isn't any good anymore.
That is not a valid excuse to make it legal. First off you shouldn't be doing it at all. Second there is no reason to get high in the first place. So it's not a valid excuse to say well if we had high quality pot then all would be well. Sorry, but no.

I am free, single, and over 21...who are you to say that I "SHOULDN'T" do it? Who made you my morallity judge?
There is no good reason?
Did you read my post a couple pages back? I bet you think that gays shouldn't adopt and teen girls that have been raped should not have the choice to abort. Are you prejuduce? Are you so close minded that you believe you know what's best for everybody dispite the situation at hand? I have my free will and my own choices to make. That is the right of every American.

Good then when you get caught have fun in jail. Lots of luck to you.
Oh and another thing. Don't assume my positions on other things. For the record I'm all for a womans right to choose, and especially in that case where someone was raped then yes do it, and when they find the rapist then have his balls cut off and shoved down his throat until he choaks. Also though I don't agree with the gay lifesyle I could honestly care less, so my advice to you is get your foot out of your mouth. People shouldn't do drugs period. The fact of the matter is that they are illegal and if you want to risk going to jail then fine. Go right on ahead, but there is no logic behind doing drugs at all. Your problems are not going to be solved by taking any kind of drug like Pot, Crack, Herion, Alcohol, or cigarettes. They will only make the solution more complex and harder to find. I don't here about this "Well people need to cut loose." Fine cut loose mowing the lawn or build a damn model. Do something constructive not destructive to yourself and to your family. Just ask the head singer of Alice and Chains, oh wait that's right he's dead, and they didn't find him for two weeks after he died.
I will leave it at this. "I think you should go home and re-think your life." Obiwan.

Beef, this is a discussion about marijuana. You're not going to see many of us argue that crack and heroin isn't bad.
Anyone ever been to Amsterdam? I have, and they seem to be doing alright.
Stay chill, boys. One more exam and then I'm gonna smoke a fat J to celebrate.

On salon.com they recently had an article about drug testing at high schools. Since marijuana stays in a person's body for almost a month, teenagers have started drinking more. If you get drunk on Friday night, the alcohol will be out of your system by Monday and the tests will be negative. So drug testing is leading some students to drinking as apposed to smoking marijuana. Believe me, alcohol is a lot worse for someone than pot.

do you honestly believe that this plant has been here since the Creation, and no ever used it until 1960? What are you thinking? I bet Plato and Leonardo drew alot of creativity from it.
don't believe everything you hear...the government is famous for spreading untrue propoganda to serve their own purpose...

Your problems are not going to be solved by taking any kind of drug like Pot, Crack, Herion, Alcohol, or cigarettes. They will only make the solution more complex and harder to find.
Eh most people I know who smoke weed would disagree with you and say after smoking weed they are calmer and more able to sort out their problems.
Just ask the head singer of Alice and Chains, oh wait that's right he's dead, and they didn't find him for two weeks after he died.
Ouch, that was just mean to people who are mourning. In fact, I'd say it's borderline trolling...I wonder where Kessel is...and unless you have new info, on saturday I read that they don't know that he died from Heroine or something else. And Heroine is a lot worse than pot.

Get over this trolling crap please. That was not trolling. That is not being mean. Unfortuanately he is now a statistic because of the crap that people love to defend as harmless. The FACT of the matter is that people start slow or quick depending on the person when it comes to drugs. Start smoking cigarette, then introduced to Pot, then move on the next thing which is worse. So why not attack the problem from the source. This Pot is good thing is complete BS. I'm pointing out a FACT. He is dead as a result of years of a substance abuse problem. I'm stating facts now if that is too hard for you to see or realize then too bad. This is exactly where drugs will leave you Calina. So go get an administrator I don't really care, because it's obvious the truth hurts when it does hit home with those of you who know, repect and like, like Staley. Snap back into to the real world because this is exactly what happens when Drugs rule your life, instead of you ruling yourself. It's a hard fact, but people should not only mourn his loss, but learn from his loss that any drug is not the freaking answer.
"Eh most people I know who smoke weed would disagree with you and say after smoking weed they are calmer and more able to sort out their problems"
Yeah they feel calm and relaxed because that is the way it makes your body feel, however in REALITY your body is going very fast, and your blood presure and heart are going through the roof. So sure they will say whatever and keep deluding themselves into thinking that no harm can come of it, when in REALITY they are harming themselves.

Everyone needs to bring this down a notch. There is no need for anyone to start getting personal. Inflammatory language, especially on the Senate Floor, is not allowed.
As for drugs never doing any good, but only making things worse. I can tell you with very strong anecdotal evidence, marijuana does have very positive side effects for the ill. Whether it be chronic pain, AIDS, even migraines, it can do wonders.

He was addicted to Heroine(and we don't know that that's what he died of), and no one has defended Heroine as harmless.
Start smoking cigarette, then introduced to Pot, then move on the next thing which is worse. So why not attack the problem from the source.
It's already been stated in this thread that pot is not a gateway drug.
So go get an administrator I don't really care, because it's obvious the truth hurts when it does hit home with those of you who know, repect and like, like Staley. Snap back into to the real world because this is exactly what happens when Drugs rule your life, instead of you ruling yourself. It's a hard fact, but people should not only mourn his loss, but learn from his loss that any drug is not the freaking answer.
I am in the real world, and I'd point out that bad things happen when you let anything rule your life instead of you ruling yourself. However, the way in which you stated that about Staley is callous and provacative.

Provacative how? I'm using a current event to show how dangerous drugs are. Duh!!! The same if I point out Chris Farelly or John Belushi. Or how about River Phoenix? How many names must I MENTION, before it dawns on everyone that drugs are killers. Pot may not be a potent or dangerous as Crack or Heroin, but it is bought from the same people who sell the Crack and Heroin.
Legalizing it will not do one bit of good in trying to keep people from using it. All your doing is giving in to spoil the child. Yeah sure the first step might be legalizing Pot, well how about the next step of legalizing Crack or Heroin? If you start giving in then more will want other things to be legal. Sure it's been proven to keep some people suffering from SERIOUS medical problems at ease with pain, however it should not be consumed by the public. We already have a bad enough problem with Drug fraud already in the U.S. with pain killers like Lodin, or Codine, or xanex. People do smash and grab jobs on drug stores for this stuff. The same will happen if you make Pot legal. The government will tax the hell out of it and not make so cheap like everyone thinks it will be. Then you have the lazy pot heads who don't work who need their pot and will rob and steal to get it. So your not solving any problems by legalizing Pot. You will have ever joe blow coming in with fake perscriptions asking for Pot and stuff. Sorry but no thanks.

Beefcake, you just crossed the line. That "Duh" comment is a blatant personal flame. EVERYONE, stop addressing these comments, or this thread will be locked. Going back and forth on a flame and/or troll just escalates things. MOve on to the next subject.
