Why Does This Board Tolerate Illegal Activities?

In Europe, yes. But nobody and I mean NOBODY in the U.S. smokes pot that way. One reason could be that the pot in Holland is much stronger since it’s legal. We get a lot of really nasty, harsh, weak reefer here and wouldn’t want to further dilute it with tobacco.

If you smoke anything, there will be consequences. Pot is no exception. If, however, you choose to vaporize your weed or eat it, there are no known ill effects.

Are you saying that inhaling hot searing irritating smoke into your lungs does no damage??!? I DON’T THINK SO!!

Also its good to know that plants are not poison. Guess you wont mind topping your next pizza with deadly nightshade, toadstools, and poison ivy.

Pot is a carcinogen. Ask any doctor.

Bolding mine.
Ironic that one of the OPs complaints was concerning the use of a bong, one of the purposes of which is to cool the smoke and make it less irritating.

Bolding/unbolding mine.
Used to put shrooms on pizza, thank you very much. And no, plant does not equal poison. Just like recreational drugs (caffiene, nicotine, alcohol, marihuana,psylocibin etc. ; ALL drugs BTW) does not equal poison. Oh, I forgot, if the elitist goverment propaganda machine says so or if it convinces the mindless sheep that it is bad, then it must be bad. Think for youself man, make your OWN decision, but please don’t expect me to follow your closed minded xenophobic philosophy.

What the HELL is “elitist goverment propaganda machine”??? Where do you think govrnment comes from? It comes from THE PEOPLE. WE THE PEOPLE. Our govrnment is not “elitist” and does not use propaganda that is DECEPTIVE. Are you saying they are lying? Name me one time in the past five years our govrnment has put out “propaganda” that is a lie. Just one.

Can’t can you?

c.f. movies Reefer Madness, Atomic Cafe’ for examples of propaganda.

How about the full page ads stating that LSD causes chromosome damage (a bold faced lie).

AvenueB-Dude: No, you should not be a citizen of this great country as you clearly don’t understand that the United States was founded on the principals of individual freedom and constitutional law.

I fully understand the concept of being a good citizen. Being the cad, heel and bounder that I am, I just refuse to be one.

Quote: “I was going to offer that you send me your address and I could send you a one-way ticket out of the country but I figure all I have to do is wait a while and then address my envelope to you care of the local prison. But of course by that time the one-way ticket wont help will it? I wonder what the right gift is for an inmate? Maybe kneepads? You can put your joint-sucking skills to use in there I guess!!”

In the first place, you reveal your vast ignorance of the law. Since I am not dealing or growing marijuana at this point in time, I would not go to Indiana’s prisons under this state’s law. The Hoosier State does not imprison first-time marijuana offenders (and I have never been caught for a drug offense), nor do I use any controlled substances other than reefer. Age has caught up with me). If caught for possession of 30 grams or marijuana or less, the worst I would face would be fines, mandatory drug counseling, some jail time (probably a few days at worst as I work) and six months suspension of my drivers license. The penalty would not be much for possession of a greater amount would not be much more severe as this state has a problem with overcrowding of its prisons and jails. And I rarely own much more than an ounce of dope.

I assume other states offer much the same penalties or lesser penalties since Indiana is a pretty conservative state.

Secondly, I wish to congratulate you on the class and compassion you have shown by implicitly wishing someone would get raped. After graduation from NYU – assuming you can pass remedial English – I predict an outstanding career in the Kosovo Genocide Corps.

Thirdly, imbecilic fascist motherfuckers like yourself make me regret this country outlawed dueling in the 19th Century. Otherwise, someone could call you out, you pusillanimous pissant.

Have an unpleasant life.

Forgive me for being anal, but mushrooms are fungi, not plants.

Well, one instance that springs immediately to mind and is easily verified a LIE is when drug czar Barry McCaffery made the ludicrous claim that Holland has a crime rate four times higher than the U.S. because they tolerate soft drugs. In reality, Holland’s crime rate is half that of the U.S.

Just a guess, but how about the official report of what happened at Waco? Pardon me while I put my helmet on.

Lynn - My apologies, and I think I speak for the others that multiposted. I trusted the CGI and did not resubmit any replys, in fact I iconified the window so as not to accidently hit ‘return’ if the window was grabbed. After timeout and waiting and checking the board I reposted once with a different reply, I couldn’t let our friends previous reply go beacause of a board hiccup :wink: BTW - this was just prior to the board going down this afternoon. Again, sorry.


A point in every direction is like no point at all

More like 1/4, I dare say. Anyway, AvenueB-Dude, how about this:

"I did not have sex with that woman."

Wake up man. The world you think you see is not the real one, obviously. The government is not the people, the government are delegates. And we all know given power is the most dangerous power.

"You know how complex women are"

  • Neil Peart, Rush (1993)

waterj2:

There are people on your side of the argument who, based on their past posting records, would disagree with you. And so do I. The point is that you can’t bitch and moan about how your “rights” are being abridged, and then go and say that the very document that grants you any rights at all is “irrelevant.”

neurton star: you really don’t get it. Illegal drugs do NOT have enough “beneficial” uses to outweigh the pain and suffering they cause. There’s no illegal drug that I know of that has some magical medical purpose that we don’t have some legal drug for (perhaps except for Mary Jane’s Mysterious Glaucoma Remedy…I’m not sure I have my facts straight about that).

The research may be medical, but the argument is certainly not reasoned…it is empty rhetoric. Let’s take one example…topical use of coke. Medical researchers found (I assume you’re not lying to me about this) that coke has some benefit when applied topically. That’s a fact (I assume). Saying that cocaine should be legally available because of its benefit when applied topically is obviously not thought out at all…it is empty rhetoric.

I’m really sorry that I showed you up for the illiterate moron that you appear to be, but this is particularly weak.

You need to revisit that original quote for a third time. I did not say that pot contradicted the message BECAUSE it was readily available. Join the other two in Reading for Comprehension 101.

No, you’re selfish because you take an issue that is effecting the entire nation and boil it down to your own desires, as evidenced by this quote. I’m sorry if you don’t like being told what you can and can’t put into your body (incidentally, the right NOT to be told what you can and cannot “do with your body” is more or less an invention of drug reformers and the pro-choice regime), but you have to consider the ramifications outside of your own egomanaical existence.

Or we could divert the money to the people who need it most via therapy and counseling.
Coldfire, I’m not doubting the veracity of your statements, but does marijuana smoke filter completely out of the lungs?? It truly is a magical weed. And there is the matter of a psychological dependence that can develop.
Oblio, once again, I kind of resent the suggestion that all people who wish to see drugs remain illegal are mindless, brainwashed goons. Yes, people who disagree with you are in fact capable of rational though, and no, you are not the lone pillar of independent thought in this nation. I also always find it funny when people who advocate or participate in fucking with your neurotransmitters with artificial chemicals accuse me of being brainwashed.

Makes sense to me. If people put me in charge of them and agreed to pay my salary and much of my living expenses, the first thing I’d want to do is poison them to death.
