Let's Make The Marijuana Thread Again!

[XtremelyBaneful]

yeah, I understand you.

I wish there were more uniform laws re this, too. not different laws in different states that are then contradicted at the federal level.

personally, I'm torn on the issue.

being straight edge, I don't drink, smoke, or do drugs. Never have and I have no desire to do so. So in that sense, I'm "against" drugs ( and drinking and smoking ).

However, that's my own personal, individual choice. So, while I don't approve or condone these activities, I feel it should be up to the individual to decide. And it isn't really my place to judge others.

(I will however encourage someone to choose sobriety if one seems to be struggling to stay sober. Which is what I thought you were alluding to in your post about being sober for months but hating it.)

So, I guess I have a more libertarian view on this subject.

As you said, there are other vices like alcohol ( or tobacco ) that are legal, with laws and restrictions that regulate their sales and usage.

tbh, if we were in a society where it was legal the same way alcohol was, then I'd probably would've been using it all this time and wouldn't been trying to stop.

I have been sober for months, but I'm not happy about it. I don't think I've gained much from abstaining from it all this time. However, if I were to try to be more religious again, this is the road I should continue to take.

You just can't count on people to be responsible with weed or alcohol. Too much of anything is of course bad for you.

alcohol is legal though. it doesn't matter if you "can't count on someone" to be responsible with it, they're allowed to consume it if they are of age. the same needs to be said about marijuana.

I thought this thread was to talk about the joys of marijuana and share pics and **** like the hypes version of facebooks High Times page.

Disappointing.

that is what I created it for, but if you take a look...that's rarely what happens so yes, it is disappointing.

seems there are more around here that want to critique it rather than those who use it and want to post about it.

 

[Reek]

then create a marijuana thread FOR NEGATIVE NANCY's

 

[Reek]

I'm kidding, but isn't there already a marijuana legalization debate thread? can't we keep this one for pro marijuana people lol

This is incredibly naive an judgmental. It just is.

 

[Thundercrack85]

I don't disagree. That's why we have laws. Or in the case of Marijuana, need more reasonable laws. Don't smoke and drive, etc. Not put people in prison for smoking a mild psychotropic drug.

lol, I said as much all the way back here

so you agree, LEGALIZE IT!

 

[Thundercrack85]

Yes. But I don't think it should be treated like candy.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Yes. But I don't think it should be treated like candy.

Decriminalizing and legalizing it would entail regulations in terms of sale and consumption. There will have to be new methods of toxicology and spot testing that will have to be developed too. I want violators to be treated the way we do those that use alcohol while driving ect.

But for the sake of treating adults like adults and allowing people real freedrom, (and to better use our various government resources) and draining a source of revenue from the black market which does nothing but empower evil men... I think the pluses of legal weed FAR outweigh the minuses. Certainly the negatives of our current policy are worse than the negatives likely with legal weed.

 

[Reek]

Though I have never had a problem driving while high... to clarify, not STONED, just high...No need to drive stoned off your ass.. anyways Just taking a hit or 2 then driving to grab dinner, come back home and cook it... never had an issue. Now, taking a shot or 2 then going, I feel completely off, guilty even lol.

If making it legal to where i can go to a local store and grab a sack takes me sacrificing driving while stoned... yep, no problem ill do that. just legalize it, I'll be just fine.

[MessiahDecoy123]

Why can't I buy those at a local cornerstore?

It's a little ridiculous considering they're safer than ciggs and booze

Much safer.

 

[Reek]

They already have breathalyzers that can detect if your driving while high

 

[Whiskey Tango]

As long as they dont detect when you were high two weeks ago like friggin job testing. : Some chump can shoot up and test clean after a couple days while another one loses his job after taking a bong hit a month prior? That's some ********.

I don't think mj impairs your ability to drive as much as the haters want everyone to think but it still isn't a great idea and if road tests are necessary part of legalization then so be it. I don't like to drive when I'm high anyway so pffft.
