on Marijuana

http://www.alternet.org/story/154498/75_years_of_a_pointless,_disastrous_war_against_marijuana/?page=entire

The most damaging war on America throughout our entire existence as a country has been the War on Drugs. Fighting a social-economic-medical problem with guns

For shame.

Answer honestly. Would it be even half as fun if you didn't have to sneak around a little to smoke up?

I don't sneak around at all. I do it just like how I drink wine, inside my own home out of everyone else's business

I can see people getting stoned and driving around and smoking on the streets as bad just like alcohol, I'd find it annoying also, but the government should GTFO our personal space

Actually the quality of products made from hemp are very poor. There's just a certain segment of society that wants to promote its use in any way possible.

We've reached the point where the single most dangerous thing about using marijuana is that you typically have to buy it from criminals.

Weed is a class something or other scheduled narcotic. Its a FELONY to have it. Alcohol is not ileagal. That's why there is and needs to be a war against drugs. STAMP OUT ILEAGAL ACTIVITY!!!

I agree, and I do so without any need to justify its use. the negative consequences of marijuana abuse are a real thing and don't have to be ignored to consider the possibility that making something illegal and enforcing that law is more deleterious on society than letting it be.

I will go further. frankly, I think a majority of the prison population have what should be considered biological diseases. Surely, it is a better framework of understanding than moralizing all behavior. dude, you're going to say we can't treat them because we don't have the technology or understanding. Still, I think it is what we should aspire to even when you see all the ethical dilemmas that come with forced treatment. Sorry for the way this paragraph is written. I could not help myself. I am just lucky my impulsiveness is expressed in this positive way, I guess.

I think we should just start shooting anyone caught with marijuana right then and there. no trial, no questions asked... just shoot them in the head and clear out the gene pool.

if you chill in a circle and pass it around and inhale then nobody possesses it. it's a neat legal trick. i am not a lawyer.

The true gateway drug is mother's milk, it leads to heroin in 90% of the cases.

While we are at it let's make all these things illegal too.

Skateboarding

Motorcycling

Rock climbing

being obese

getting a sun tan

playing any contact sports

smoking anything

alcohol

running on the street

really small cars (unsafe at any speed)

owning a dog

horseback riding

scuba diving

surfing

-----------------------------------------------------

They all hurt you, they must be stopped, they must be made illegal.
