Death and Misery
codemanis

by the way. 30% of america DOWN THE LINE use pot. the teachers, the police, the parents, lawyers, it goes on. and you better not judge that these people are bad at their jobs just because they smoke it.. that would be a form of discrimination. kids in collage smoke it and still graduate and get great careers. weed is not a dangerous thing. unless your all about "tripping balls" then you might go and try harder things.


America! No really, cocaine addicts do great jobs, and so do heroine addicts and Vicodin addicts, so your point is about as realistically defensive as air is padding against a football lineman.


Actually, it's not...

Over 90 million Americans have admitted to smoking marijuana. Hundreds of important figures in history have smoked it including politicians, scientists, philosophers...Half of the greatest musicians of all time have indulged regularly in it. How ignorant of you to compare them to junkies.

Also, you can't compare Cocaine, Heroin (that's how you spell Heroin, by the way), and Vicodin to Marijuana. Vicodin is a synthetic drug. Heroin and Cocaine cause permanent tissue damage within the first use. Marijuana's symptoms dissipate after a few hours. I see no similarities, and therefore no argument.

Marijuana isn't a harmful drug. THC holds no addict-forming chemical compounds. Now scientists are starting to believe THC improves cognitive left brain activities.

If you're misinformed, I wouldn't be forming an opinion if I were you. It just ends up making you look dumb in the end...

ON THAT NOTE! I smoke weed because I have a subjuxation in my neck that produces chronic pain. It helps me immensely and I don't particularly want to start taking addictive pain medication.



very nice! biggrin i totally forgot about that fact. i'm sorry to hear about your neck though sad

My friend went blind from using that stuff and his dad died from it. It's terrible stuff, ruins families and lives.


went blind and died from weed? this is something weird to my ears since you can't over dose. its true that everyone gets a different reaction to the plant. since it was not really stated how he died, all i can think of is how the person was getting weed. i don't know how dangerous it is to go and get weed, but if you die from it, then i guess that just adds to the sadness of it being illegal. so i don't know if its the side effects that killed the person (i doubt) or the actions taken when under the influence. or something, kind of don't really see how you can die from it, did the doctors give more details or something? also, its possible that a family could be messed up and weed is just something around the house to chill out after an argument.

There's no such thing as dying from weed. You'll hear of programs talking about drugs and when something like cocaine is brought up, they got a number for the amount of deaths. But with Marijuana, there is none. No cases of death by marijuana has ever been reported. Ever. This guy is obviously lying about his dad dying from weed. If not then his loot probably got laced with something else. Like chlorine maybe. But yeah, death by pot nearly impossible. The amount of weed one would have to smoke to get to that point would be rediculous. It has many good properties in it; the only thing harmful is the smoking part. Ingesting or using a vaporizer is much safer.
     
If I smoke It I go on a paranoid thing.
My mate used to have mental health issues he was okay but he smoked some and it come back for him so he stopped.

Sum buds good but then you have stuff like skunk which is chem made and bad for you.
Maybe pure real naturally grown weed isnt harmful and thats why it should be legal to get rid of skunk.

you know what, your totally right, the side affects of pot wouldn't make you act like a dum a** enough to get you killed. if you smoked pot and get killed from acting like a dumass from the side effects, then you would have died if you were sober because in reality you are a dumass. i was having a very strong feeling that the post was totally bull.

i could barrally understand what you wrote man, but again everyone has a different take on the plant. and the legalization on weed would be the greatest thing for the country since hemp can be used for almost anything, the declaration of independence paper is hemp.

I'm simply against it because I'm against smoking.
Otherwise, I think it's good for some people, bad for others.

i have only tried weed a few times and personal i dont mind it, i feel bad for doing it but it was for an experience. it helps me sleep, i have trouble sleeping, i like to stay up real late and what not but the times i have used it, which was like 3, it help me go to bed soo easily
     

this is me, wave hi =]

i love artz, donate?
I know you're not supposed to smoke it while pregnant, but I couldn't afford the only medications that would stop the nausea long enough for me to eat. I lost about 20-30 lb the 4 months of pregnancy, and soon as I started smoking, the nausea stopped and I could at least keep the weight, even if I still had difficulty gaining it back.
Don't get me wrong, I wasn't smoking every day, but the days where it just seemed like nothing was going to stay down, it helped a lot (I was also taking phenergen gel alongside it, which helped with some of the nausea, but never completely).

Aside from that, it's an excellent sleep aid and vastly improves the taste of experimental cooking.

I believe animals should be used to our benefit, as well as their own.
I accept not all aspects of livestock raising is clean or pretty, but it is essential, so get the ******** over it.

For me, marijuana was an anti-depressant of sorts. Last winter I was overcome by a serious bout with depression, caused by many personal and ethical issues going on, and it eventually rose to the point where I had become suicidal. Unfortunately my mom didn't have the money to send me to therapy and the symptoms got progressively worse. One of my best friends noticed my downward spiral and opted to skip school with me one day (the reason I skipped was due to a wrestling coach that constantly made the team feel like s**t) to make sure I didn't do anything drastic. At the time I was an emotional wreck which was when he suggested that I try smoking, at least once, to see if it would help subside my current status. Needless to say it helped out loads, and eventually allowed me to work through my issues in a relatively positive manner. Though I don't smoke anymore, as my depression has long since passed, I do find that it helps at times and as such shouldn't be frowned upon. Also considering the fact that it is physically impossible to OD on the substance (I think you have to consume 1/3 of your total body weight in it before it becomes lethal) makes it far safer to use than alcohol, and also does not result in an increase of violent tendencies.

There was a docometry about WEED and they say! if you smoke it for your whole life! you can developed Schitzophrenia.


I have a friend who smokes WEED and other drugs acid!
frist she was fine at the year just smoke WEED and sometimes other drugs!
as we are doing an animation course together!
but when she got involed with this guy! who use to be in our school but left because he is out of it and take heavy drugs!
she got worse! she doesn't even come to the course! she feels sick at the envirorment she lives in because that guy makes drugs!

If you smoke! WEED! it can lead to other drugs aswel.
And I have seen people who smoke WEED that lead to pee.

So recommend stop taking WEED if possible
!





so its the guy who led her to other drugs and as far as the acid thing; u CAN make choices about what drugs you take (even when on thc) so its not the weed that made her get involved in other drugs. saying weed makes you do other drugs is pathetic -_-
 
     
 
weed is completely safe PERIOD! It doesnt lead to heavier drugs. So far as it causing blindness or death is complete utterly undeniable bullshit unless. The only way that sounds like it might happen is if someone decides to crush painkillers and other drugs into it like some blistered a*****e.
