Your just being foolish about the pot is a gateway drug. :D

The reason they say that is any individual or most will say the first illegal drug they used was pot. Therefore they will say reefer a gateway drug. So the statement is semi true. Some will smoke pot and never venture into anything else. Some will move on to other drugs.

So it ain't like you smoke a joint one day and the next your out looking for kit to intravenously boot heroin. :D

But for some it was a stepping stone unfortunately.

But mackin, the media told me this and i read it on the internet. IT MUST BE TRUE!!! :D

So suck it? That ain't right! :D


You don't know what your missing if you ain't done no drugs! :angel:
This I can tell you I have never done any hallucinating drugs like acid or stuck a needle in my arm. I drew the line there. If I couldn't snort eat or smoke it I wasn't interested! :D

Not that I'm proud of any of that today. Don't Do Dugs!

I've been drunk enough times to know I couldn't care less about drinking and drugs really hold no interest to me, it has nothing to do with the legality of it.

I hear you, it's fun to f*ck around when your in highschool or around that age I should say, I'm only 24 but grew out of getting fckd up like that when I was 18-19. Rather work my ass off and make money. I'll light one up occasionally. Don't get me wrong. But i would rather save my money for truck parts then a bs any day!

Marijuana's not as docile and safe as most think.
Sure, it generates revenue, tax dollars and puts some people to work, but at what capacity?

The problem i foresee, there will be people getting sick left and right. Medical marijuana is significantly more potent than street weed, there are foods, drinks, oils, pastries, candies you name it, ive even "seen" cannabis infused bbq sauce. I foresee alot of people immersing themselves in this new "fad" of "legal medical marijuana"
You can overdose off weed! You wont die, you will wish you had though. Its called cannabaniod poisoning, also weed is addictive, contrary to popular belief, it is, and detoxing off weed is no fun, and no short lived, sleep it off and go to work in the morning type of procedure.

This concept is great for cancer patients, terminally ill, and permanently in pain people who may have issues with synthetic drugs. Unfortunately for those who would truly benefit from this, the general public will ruin this program, a green card in washington state is only $180.00, and can be gotten by any adult over 18 by appointment @ a small walk in clinic in most cities. There are so many dispensaries in western washington already, you can legally obtain medical marijuana if you have a green card in almost every city around.

This is not as cool as it would seem, and it is going to consume peoples lives, just as any drug would, legal or not.
Alcohol, tobacco, pain pills, cocaine, meth, heroin, pcp, lsd, marijuana, yup it belongs on this list of poison as well.

Don't be fooled boys and girls. DRUGS ARE BAD M'kay

I cant tell if you are being a troll or just that ignorant. You obviously dont have a clue. If you dont know what you are talking about please refrain from inserting your opinion.

Crack and Meth ARE legal you fools, go to the doctor for ADD/ADHD and there ya go.

To the people that dislike the props passing, where does it stop? Nicotine and alcohol can REALLY mess you up. Next time you're drunk smoke a cigarette and let me know how you feel. Those illegal too? What about NyQuil? Aspirin? Caffeine?

It comes down to this: If you cannot be a productive member of society because of any substance, you have a problem with that substance not the rest of the community.

I hate the current mentality that "if it doesn't work for me, no one should have it."

You hit the nail on the head. Great post man

What ever your fix is that's cool, but don't push the issue. Think of "don't ask ,don't tell". Nothing is worse when dealing with people who act a fool while on there vise. Medically if it helps cool but anything can be abused, heroin to caffeine. So whatever your pleasure go for it, but be safe, In a safe place and don't drive.

More available to our youth? When I was in 8th grade I didn't have a cell phone, and I still could have gotten a sack of pot whenever I wanted. To all the parents that have kids in the 13-15 age range, I can almost guarantee you that your kid already knows where to get weed, and exactly how much it costs. I am not saying they use it, but I'll bet they know where to find it.

It takes a high school senior about 5 minutes to get weed, it is a lot harder for that same kid to get ahold of a bottle of whiskey even though the alcohol is legal and sold on every corner. I think legalizing and regulating the growth and sale of marijuana is a good idea.

what in the f**k kind of public school did you go to where you could get weed whenever you wanted....

I'd be interested in someone actually posting studies/analysis on marijuana legalization and it's negative effects on crime rates. I've seen/heard experts weigh in on both sides of the fence. There should be conclusive data considering California has been at it awhile.

I don't honestly care if it gets legalized or not, it'll have little to no affect on my life. I do find it funny the amount of mis-information out there on the subject though and figure it's only a matter of time before it's completely legal.

Same way for me... I remember a few times smoking in the quad not 20 feet from faculty members but I grew up in Northern California where marijuana was more tolerated

Until it is federally legal for recreational use, I don't see it having a huge impact on crime

I don't see there being a difference between recreational and medical use in regards to crime. If you want a card in California, you find the appropriate doctor and get one. Bottom line, you want to get high, you can. If anything, full legalization makes it more affordable with less need for crime.

I can't remember the last time I heard a pothead robbing someone to buy weed, but I know several people I went to school with. That have had issues with meth and have been caught several times burglarizing homes.

I can't see weed having a impact on crime. Unless stealing junk food becomes a epidemic I wouldn't worry about sleeping with a loaded pistol under my pillow! :roflmao:
