yes, very true, but it's not actually the pot itself that is addictive. it is the effects on the person that they feel they can't go without. they're usually washed up guys with mental health issues. same with alcohol, although booze is also slightly chemically addictive.

banning a substance that 99% of people use responsibly and enjoy, because of the 1% of loons is stupid.

more people are addicted to sex than pot i would wager. are you going to tell me that sex should be illegal? thought not, rofl

Here in Chicago the police don't even care if you have pot on you, I can't tell you how many times I've been pulled over on the Westside of Chicago and they found pot on friends of mine and they don't do anything, they even give it back to them, there reasoning being they need to spend time fighting harder drugs then taking time to do paper work on a pot user. Heroin, Coke , and Meth are 3 of the most evil substances on earth and the government needs to spend time and money fighting those, not pot.

You will never convince me that pot isn't bad for you. I've seen too many people that just smoke pot "casually" and have only been doing it for 20 years or so (but, they aren't addicted)

and their motor skills are definately effected by years of this crap. One of my high school buddies is a good example of this.

I think my odds of getting killed by a pot smoker on the road are a bit higher than it would be of getting killed by a nympho.

yup

here in the UK they won't be too bad with you if you have a small amount. they just give you an informal warning, and usually confiscate it.

that said, they weren't happy when a few mates and i were sitting in a friend's front garden singing at 3am. told us to take our joints inside and go to sleep

bucky, if you're responsible with your intake, like i've been, there are hardly any effects. my guess is your friend was quite a heavy smoker for some time. of course pot is bad for you. breathing oxygen is bad for you, it's what eventually kills us all. you can't live your life constantly worrying about everything.

pot is less dangerous than booze, will you argue that point? so why then is pot illegal when booze isn't?

as for driving while stoned, i personally think it's less dangerous than driving while drunk. as long as you aren't too stoned you still have a lot of control. i agree though, that driving under the influence is incredibly stupid, and it's up to the moron to choose not to risk his, and other people's lives so stupidly. i've never driven under the influence of anything, but if i was to, it certainly wouldn't be while i was on pot. if i was justa bit stoned, i'd be far too smart to do anything like that. pot makes you think about stuff a lot, quite meditative. if you're really high as a kite you'll be so paranoid you won't touch the car with a ten foot pole. high drivers are the least of your worries, if they've let themselves drive, they usually made that choice based on good logic, ie. only having a few tokes.

it's not up to some controlling knobhead to tell me what to do, i'll smoke what i bloody like thankyou very much. surely that is what america was based on when it was founded, freedom? shame it's lost that, it's become a beaurocratic and greed driven joke.

time we told these wankstains to piss off!

again, i'm not disputing the fact that pot has health issues, but that i should have the freedom to do what i want with MY body. if it's MY choice, why should anyone else care?

Agreed 100%.

So which party wants to end the "war on drugs"? not the democrats... the democrats may play a little lip service to the pot heads from time to time but they love the war on drugs as much as anyone.

If it were up to me.. you would be able to buy a pound of heroin at the supermarket for $5 and only show an ID that you were 18.

Are there gangs of wild buds leaping from their illicit manure sanctuaries killing people on the streets?... are suicide gardens threatening to blow us up at the mall? did marijuana join al quada over the weekend?

Only our .gov could come to the conclusion a patch of dirt with weeds growing out if was dangerous.

Whats dangerous are the drug laws, and imbecile hacks like dude.

I'm sorry but I can't agree with that, me being a recovering ex-heroin user I know how dangrous this drug can be. I've lost too many of my friends to heroin overdoses, my g/f died right next to me in my bed, so I can tell you seeing what it can do shows you how evil it is. That drug will make you do anything and hurt the ones you love just to get another fix, it cost me all my non-using friends, my family members, and it cost me my freedom.

What other drugs do they take that you know of? over the counter pain meds? Prozac? alcohol?, nicotine? crack? et al?? things you don't know about?

What, if any, possible adverse reactions do you attribute to drugs besides weed?

Any drug, legal or otherwise, has side effects.. its entirely possible your motor skill challenged friend is reacting poorly to something else. It would be impossible to say weed alone is the only reason.

Don't be too sure. Depends on just how far Right-Wing Republican the person's views are.

The ONDCP is as full of crap now as always.

The sooner Americans stop listening to them, stop thinking they actually know what they're talking about, and start realizing that there are other serious agendas in play, the sooner we as a nation can begin to approach a sane policy towards drugs.
