Illegality doesnt really mean anything, esp. in America where the reasons for marijuana illegality are bullshit. Paper and alcohol companies are pretty much bribing senators to keep it illegal because its a threat to their business.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

wait, it's a threat to paper companies?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Hemp is a much cheaper and more green way of making paper, so yes.

and hemp is...?

You realize that you're on the internet, right? Vast amounts of information at your fingertips. In the amount of time you've been waiting for her reply, you could know what hemp is, what it's used for, it's chemical make-up, what it costs, how it's grown, etc. Your ignorance amazes me.

a simple answer to your statement. I really don't feel like it. that is all.

Hemp is a fiber derived from the cannabis plant, it can be used to make rope (wayy stronger than average) clothing and paper. As well as foods (non-psychoactive) rich in omega-3s

the problem isn't the high, it's the addictiveness. I'm not sure if pot is addictive, I'm just sayin.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Everything can be psychologically addictive. Even if you disregard that; nicotine, alcohol, caffeine, etc. are all physically addicative. Weed isn't. Alcohol is actually so addictive, that if a heavy drinker quits cold turkey, they can die.

@830845 (Mike_Hawk): did i say i believe weed should be illegal or alcohol should be non regulated. I believe both should be heavily regulated purely due to the possible dangers of them. and you may say there are no dangers to weed, but it is probably just as dangerous to a driver as alcohol.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

In terms of driving: The effects of marijuana last about 2 hours-no longer if you are a frequent smoker. The effects of alcohol can last up to 12 hours+ (depending on how much consumed). A person smoking weed could seriously just wait until they were sober, if they felt that they were too high-thats another thing, a high person is more self aware and if they truly feel they are too impaired to drive then they wont. A drunk person is reckless and usually drives faster, while a high person is more cautious. A person that smokes weed regularly is affected differently and depth perception is not altered really. I drive perfectly fine, I dont just blaze before driving though. I am usually a little buzzed. So really marijuana is not that impairing to a driver compared to alcohol. Yes, in new/less frequent smokers it does-and they shouldnt drive. But regular users are ok.

But I've seen someone high and they were crazy. I wouldn't want to get in a car with them.

Yeah, alcohol is was more addicted than weed. I know people that smoked weed regularly and then quite, just because they felt like it-with no issues. They could even be around it.

i've always wanted to try it but i have trouble breathing any ways so i feel like its a bad idea...

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I feel you. I don't have trouble breathing, but I really can't stand the smoke without a large glass of water. I'm not sure on the specifics, but you can dissolve the psychoactive ingredients in butter or oil and cook with it. I'd look it up before doing it, though.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

yeah I've heard that but its also apparently lackens the effects by a lot and only sorta works according to my shady friends.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Really, now? I've heard from a lot of people that it takes longer to kick in, but it's a lot more intense. Either way, it's still a way too try it.

Huh well i guess there is one way to find out which one is true...

Haha, well you'll never really know if you don't smoke it, so I guess you really can't be disappointed. In any case, you're in for a good time. Just stay calm.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

If you grind weed/plant matter into a fine powder and simmer it in butter for a few hours-the longer the better-then filter it through cheesecloth when you are done. You can make anything and it will get you high. It does not affect the quality, in fact it makes the high stronger and longer lasting.

Do you feel the need to smoke because you can't have fun without it? Is that why your so defensive? Basically, anything other than your natural state is bad. Its bad because we weren't made to do those kinds of things, like.. Ever. Smoking is one of them. Yes, weed is addictive, if it wasn't, please explain to me the people that want more, take more and want more highs after thier first try. It. Is. Addictive. It also has health effects, it leaves gunk in your lungs, that my friend, is very unhealthy. It can also cause cancer. ALSO, weed is known to cause multiple personality disorders. If you don't believe me, go research it. I've seen it first hand, turns people horrible. Now, if you can still counter act this argument, I'm going to stop talking and think you're stupid and waste your life smoking, becuae there's so much more you can do with out it. Trust me, being healthy is the way to go.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

They have never proved it caused cancer, or that it does any severe lung damage. Where are you getting this information from?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

All kinds of smoking will cause lung damage. Alveoli in the lungs are very sensitive and any small amount of outside 'gunk' can cause you to lose alveoli. Which is pretty bad and reduces the amount of oxygen you can carry in your blood.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yes, but they have proven it doesn't. I still want to know where you are getting this info from.

Dude So I made the rant of a lifetime at this guy, idk why but when someones says "Now, if you can still counter act this argument, I'm going to stop talking and think you're stupid and waste your life smoking" Isnt that contradictory? Its was provoking, but If I have an argument I am a fucking idiot-how immature. That just really sets me off, you know, I am smart and I am going to do so many amazing things in my life-I am not gonna have some prick that doesnt know me say that I cant just because I smoke weed. I'm only saying this to you because I know you understand me xD

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I saw your rant. :P That pissed me off too. I hate when people act like that, espcially after they've been proven wrong. "Oh, well you smoke put, you're stupid so I'm going to ignore every single fact you tell me." It's immature and extremely annoying. I'm glad you started ranting though, because I have no access to a computer and there was way too much to type on a phone. xP

I do not need marijuana to have fun, I do enjoy smoking it but I have gone plenty of times without. I simply believe that people can smoke marijuana, and have productive successful happy lives and should not be treated like criminals. Altered states of consciousness are a part of lives, whether induced or not-dreams, sleep, and meditation are altered states. People have been using marijuana for thousands of years, as well as some sort of fermented drink. Our bodies were never made for alcohol either, along with caffeine, and the countless pharmaceuticals that people use these days (for legitimate reasons or not) I am saying that of all the substances that people use to get a buzz (people are always gonna be trying to), marijuana is less harmful. Weed is psychologically addictive yes, but there are other contributing factors to a person becoming addicted. I am not lying when I say that I have seen regular users quite just because they felt like it and had no str...

A cigarette smoker would have a very hard time quitting. Another thing, a person who smokes ciggs smokes way more (by weight) a day than someone that just smokes weed. Alcohol is far more addicting and dangerous, and alcoholism is a disease that kills and makes one violent. A joint is no worse than being outside in LA pollution for a day. Some people try weed and dont like it, or just decide not to do it. Not every ones wants to smoke it all the time. I understand very well that any inhaled smoke is bad for your lungs, but there are other means of consuming pot. It can be vaporized or cooked, though you are breathing in the thc vapor-you are not smoking it. My friend has struggled with mental disorders through her life including schizophrenia, once she started smoking weed regularly she was able to go off of her meds-her doc even said it was fine if thats what helped her.

I think it is really funny that you are provoking me, and then saying if I can come up with a counter argument that I am stupid and wasting my life. You dont fucking know me, and of coarse if you make a personal attack I am gonna come back at you. I am going to college and have a fucking 3.6 gpa, I am in school for massage therapy-a career in which I will help others heal. I have taken 5+ anatomy and physiology classes and I understand the human body well, I understand what inhaling smoke does damage the lungs. I know I inhale smoke less frequently than the average cigg smoker. Just because I smoke pot doesnt mean I am automatically unhealthy, I dont shove pounds of artificial food in my face every week. I am active and I enjoy life, and I believe that I will get a lot out of life. I am going to see the world, I have seen a lot already and its just the beginning. I am more connected with nature than many other people my age, all consumed in ther tiny boxes that do

Sir I am not American, I dont care about your score at school/college or whatever you call it there. Its just a very unhealthy thing to do. It's the same as anything excessivly. Like, Gaming, excersise and eating. It's all bad. I think people who do use pot are complete idoits because they can't live life normally and have to use drugs to make it better. It's terrible. It really is. I don't see how people can't just live life normally. And yes, damaging your body does make you unhealthy. Thats what being unhealthy is. You're damaging your body, you know it and you ignore it? Wtf? seriosuly. >.> Just hope you'll change out of your weed smoking/cooking/whatever habits and live a normal life.

I am saying that not everyone smokes weed excessively for it to be unhealthy, as you said everything can be damaging in excess. Many people have their own vices, like drinking, gambling, sex, weed, pills. Not everyone that smokes weed 'has to use it to make their lives better' my life is wonderful with or without. It is perfectly normal for people to get a drink after work. Well, some people would rather smoke a bit of weed at the end of a long day than have a martini. Just because you smoke weed does not mean you dont live normally. NORML-is our National Organization for Marijuana Law Reform. In America, its not about the health risks-its about money that is all our government cares about, so many people here have bad pharmaceutical addictions. Yes, marijuana may not be your lungs best friend but it is a personal choice to smoke it-like it is a personal choice to smoke ciggs or drink, if one understands what they are doing and can be successful

and live a good life then it shouldnt be an issue. Its not like my consumption of marijuana in the privacy of my home is going to affect you, or even my neighbor. I just think it is stupid for you to disregard everything I say because of the simple fact that I smoke pot. I am living a normal life, scratch that, my life is extraordinary-and its just the beginning. The future does not exist, only now does.
