The reason I don't use it is because of the people I have seen use it. No offence to anyone here, but everyone single one of them was an idiot. A vast majority of the heavier users I knew are still back at home...doing nothing with their lives. Not saying that it happens to everyone but it just seems like alot of people lose sight of the big picture and have no drive to do anything with themselves.

That being said..... I have no problem with anyone smoking it, it should eb your right to do what ever you want. Hell the goverment could corner the market on crops and rehab centers. Quality product and quality rehab, you could blance the budget in a few years.
But I also believe that prostitution should be legal, and have the crap taxed out of it.... gets the women off the streets and keeps the crime out also.
You give the people what they want, sex booze and drugs, they won't steal (as much) kill (as much) rape (as much)
But no it's too easy to shake the moral finger at something that works somewhere else but we need to be the moral compass because we have to follow the "good" book

The thing I hate is when people think theyre GaNgStA and like to go 'smoke a blunt' just so other people think theyre cool, thats what pisses me off. People like that have no future (thank god) and need to die. Just thinking about it gets me annoyed.
But meh, I guess people who just for fun use it I have nothing against. People who just like to have a nice time with it (kinda like going with some freinds to get pissed). I dont think it should be legal, you get too many bored teenagers who think theyre cool, though it is over here (ACT, the smallest state, Australias capitol and yet it has the loosest rules. Weird.)
Its just the people who use it to think theyre cooler than everyone else that pisses me off.
My 2 cents.
EDIT: Damn, that website about the facts and myths is interesting... Its pretty much the exact oppisite to those anti-drug videos I watch in PE.

overrated... smoking it does not mean you are cool/special/in some dumb little club... practically everyone has done it... not impressive...
Took the words out of my mouth.
Legalize it. Smoke it. I don't have a problem with it. I've done it, not my thing, but to each his own.
I do have an issue with those who wear their pot leaf hat/shirt/hoodie/etc., or post about it on a message board ("yo pot smokerz whos wit me?"), as an attempt to be cool.

Agreed. Those are the numbskulls who end up either hating it or becoming eternal potheads who do shit with themselves.
I'd smoke it if it were legal, and I'd probably never drink again. The fact that it's illegal is bullshit considering it's FAR less addictive and dangerous than alcohol and nicotine.

I cant stand those people. They want to be known as the pothead. I dont.
Thanks for all your input you guys it seems like as a teen it was more popular and as you grow older you grow out of it.

Not one death to date.
But recently Ive been hearing about this stuff that is 100% THC (active ingredient in MJ). Supposively you take 2 hits and its like smoking 2 joints.
I cant wait to see what bullshit the media draws from this.
Post by: lostboyz on July 10, 2007, 01:00:00 PM
and the 100% THC is called hash, its just crystallized THC. You can extract it a few different ways. Nothing new though
Post by: yaazz on July 10, 2007, 05:20:00 PM
I remember one time when I was at a beach we definitley were not smoking pot, and suddenly, a plane with a red light on one wing, and a blue light on the other wing flew by. We were a little giddy, so we got a little paranoid about it. Suddenly, there was a huge splash in the water, and one of my freinds SWORE that it was a military scuba diver cop coming after us. We all agree, freak out, and run away into a cave. We stayed there for a long while drinking beer until we were too drunk too care anymore.
the next day we shook our heads at how stupid we were.
I'm all against non legalization because it makes it more fun, haha

im not sure exactly what the name for pure THC is, however, hash is the street name for cannabis resin, solid brown rocky substance.
other names include, rocky, solid and hashish. My favourite, and what we call it around here is "council"

yah, i don't like calling it that. they also call it "blim". Blim burns or bombers, when a red hot piece falls from a spliff and annihilates anything in it's path.
soap bar just seems silly to me as that's acctually what it's called for 9oz's of it, because of how it's made and shaped it looks like a bar of soap.

If hash was legalized you could in theory take hundreds of thousands of hash users away from the black market. Making it harder for drug dealers to recruit new addicts/customers. Also governments world wide could severely dent the illegal drug trade if they bought and supported farmers who grow poppy's in the third world. The drug/s could be used for medical purposes for example.
i'm unsure there of the relation between cannabis and heroin?

The problem with hash is it is considered a gateway drug. Taking the drug does not inspire you to move on to the next big thing. It's the people who supply the drug who inspire there users to move along the drug tree.
no need to repeat yourself, i can read.
my point is one second your talking about legalizing cannabis then the next your talking about supporting opium poppy farmers, 2 completely unrelated things.

No need to get hasty, this is "The Dump." Things go off topic here all the time.
All that is being said is, Arvarden believes that if Marijuana is legalized, the black market will die down, not get worse. A common misconception is Marijuana and hash are gateway drugs. They are not. Dealers make the link to worse drugs, and if people can obtain pot legally, there is no need for dealers. Thus, the link to more dangerous drugs dwindles.
It is a different topic with the similar elements, that's all.
