Considering you gave people less than 5 minutes to respond, why would anyone want to talk to a stupid newbie that didn't follow the general rules of thumb?
I confess that I have been in the presence of smokers.. and gotten 'the drift' of smoke... not much, but it still gave me a slight buzz. I don't necessarily agree with it being illegal, but public smoking of it would be crazy.
Personally, my stand is FOR POT. Not just because it is helpful to many people. But it could be extremely helpful to the economy. I have never smoked it, though I know people who do every day and love it. If it becomes legal, I totally will. Even though I may eventually end up smoking it anyway.

But they argue that why should we introduce another unsafe produce, to which I reply: We should get rid of alchohol or tobacco and switch to marijuan, since it is the safest of the 3.
Actually, it's not. At least not safer than cigarettes. One "dose" of pot is equivalent to between 6 and eighteen cigs, depending on how its smoked. And alcohol is somewhat easier to make than pot, so it's harder to control, witness Prohibition.
I'm not a huge fan of any of them. But, frankly, I'd rather tighten up the restrictions on pot, except for narrow medical uses.
Are you slow or just dumb? go back and read what I posted.
"Id also like to add when you read "smoking x amount of pot is equal to smoking x amount of cigarettes." It doesnt mean it will cause cancer. There have been zero cases of cancer or heart diease caused by marijuana. Although you can get emphysema from smoking pot just like inhaling any kind of smoke into the lungs."
Originally posted by maharini15: I don't see how marijuana is dangerous. It impairs judgement, sure, but so does alcohol, and so do some prescription drugs. It's not chemically addictive (like crack, alcohol, cigarettes, or caffeine). Just because it's associated with the disenfranchized miscreants of America doesn't mean that it's a "gateway drug." ...sorry. I just had an argument with one of my friends about this too.
my mom smoked it when she was younger and my uncle still does it DOES NOT lead to harder drugs and one blunt every weekend will not hurt you that much in the long run

Liberals prefer equality - all people should be equally poor, unsafe and badly-educated.
