Re: 11 Common Misconceptions About Marijuana

When any institution, government or non-government, makes public claims that cannot be backed by evidence, there should be very severe consequences. It is fraud.

Why isn't it possible for the claims to be questioned directly in court or otherwise, and solid evidence asked for to back the claims and numbers? Even if they are not punished and made to make a public statement reclaiming their fabrication, it will do a wealth of service to showing the public just how much baseless steaming piles of dog poo the government pulls out of its ass and feeds to the public. Criminals, worse than rapists in many ways.

2.) You think marijuana makes you mellow, relaxed and worry-free? Hopefully more often than it makes you paranoid, but let’s see what you have to say.
  • According to freevibe.com, marijuana users are four times more likely to commit violent acts and five times more likely to steal as non-marijuana users.
i have never ran into someone who was high that wanted to kick my ass or steal something

So when somethings legal, reliable data is easier to obtain.



Its probably a hell of a lot easier for a kid under 18 to get weed from his dealer, then it is for him to get a pack of cigarettes. If marijuana was legalized..kids getting ID'ed would prevent so many underage people smoking..right?
.

I dunno man, im still in HIGHschool, and almost every kid who flips baggies sells cigs to em aswell... I think weed will be alot easier for kids to obtain if it's legal. Just go talk to the shady guy behind the bud store and pass him few bills. I see that shit every day behind beer stores.

Re: 11 Common Misconceptions About Marijuana

i find this funny in an ironic way not a ha ha way.

its like these are the people who are getting paid tens of thousands of dollars every year to write horse shit like this, yet i can smell the stank coming from it from a mile off and i know better than to listen to this propaganda.

makes me want to smack a bitch. but i know better.

what would work is a commercial during the super bowl or something showing that weed isnt anything they mentioned on that site.

any one have a few million bucks they want to put into this?

Re: 11 Common Misconceptions About Marijuana

See - I read this, and it makes me smile
I wish people like you and me - with real knowledge and facts to refute their propaganda, could be on national debates with these liars. I know why its not done too. They'd get their asses handed to them! There would be riots and protests, and drugs would be legal within weeks. And they know it. They can't keep us all stupid forever
The way I look at it thu, it will never be legalized for one big reason...
Its in my sig

The network would never air it - even if they were offered BILLIONS. Its too stigmatised as a low life culture

Re: 11 Common Misconceptions About Marijuana

Wow, truly amazing work... Really eye opening stuff there...

Maybe a bit over aggresive in certain points, but sometimes that's necessary.
