Just fed up with the negativity towards marijuana in todays society. Its just sad to see so many people immediately say "oh oh its bad for you, you shouldn't ever smoke it" and my response is always "Show me some evidence, ill have a look". Everytime I get a response "Oh ermmm". I personally started smoking pot through a friend and uni and ive never looked back since! Ive kept my job even got a promotion!, worked hard through my first year at uni, was just 1% under a first in my first year and fucking loved smoking pot. Yet people want to punish me for taking a drug that's much better for me, much more pleasurable to take and in general a more social drug. Most nights me and the lads roll a couple of joints and chill out but seems that the powers that be prefer me to go out drinking myself into a pissing state of a river whilst destroying my organs all for a "better" experience. I think not. Its not a drug, its a plant. Dont think ill ever want to stop smoking pot but i cant predict what ill be thinking in 20 years time. But I know for a fact ill know it for what it truly is and know for a fact I can base my knowledge on experience and correct judgement rather than all the false information and lies being told about it today. Whats your guys views? Toke on!
Fuckit. Why care about them? They can take their ignorance elsewhere. I'm drinking cuz my family prefers it, and cuz its legal. But soon as I get back to a medi state I'll be smoking myself stupid. I'll take a blunt over beer any day. "Its from the earth. Its good for you. God put it here for me and you.". Friday lol
Majority of the issue is current media hyping false facts and studies done by imaginary Labs who probably smoke joints all day wondering what lies to write up for the government/media and collect a nice check.I've never seen so much bullshit fake facts displayed as fact and real with NO real evidence and facts, on top of that, They are using kids as targets to 'upset the viewers', because the story went from "pot" to little kelly ingesting pot-brownies and 'medical staff' saved her from possible death.This is #1 bullshit story, now they use 'terrorism', United Nation to bully other countries and force a broken plolicy (about the ban on pot because we feel like it?), and now saying that kids are in dangered ...I rather a child accidently ingest pot brownies than some Oxycodone or some Tramadal (stuff that can do damage to a child with no possible cure other than I.V. feed and wait it out. )You never see no parent crying about their child dying for weed/pot, either ingested, injected, even anally stuff up there-- 1,000, 000, 00 of so called reports of over dose on weed, yet not 1 fucking death.Name any drug and/or alcohol can u pump into a child (purely by accident and playing out this senario) and tell me which ones won't kill him. Makes death seem like a better choice.Also, someone should sue this media company for it's illegal propaganda & false infringement on a global scale (offending billions of MJ users and little M.J. her self)I don't go around calling politicians wives a "whore" on national T.V and call it facts. Because my ass would get sued, possible Jail or some gay police record, and probably molested a little while being tazered by corrections officers.SoCompanies who camouflage their title as "public media" and post nonsense.(Edit)Should be sued for infringement on a living organisms and causing millions of innocent people lives to be destroyed (jail time for pot) and not to mention the billions off possibilities for 1 plant, from fuel to medicine, and the billion of people out there that need it.Sue them! ItIt's what USA stands for! ( lol )And I'm angry too. I feel ur fucking pain!-Sent via-Samsung G3 using Grasscity Android App.
What negativity? We come closer and closer to legalization every day. It's becoming More tolerated if you ask meJust my 2 centsSent from my Prism using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Just saying about "it's not a drug its a plant" sorry to say but most drug are derived from plants. Morphine, heroin, meth, cocaine, acid all started life as plants. "revenge is a dish best served while I'm still pissed"
You seem to think the plant versions are the same as the refined and freebased versions. They're not. If you chew on coca leaves, it gives you a nice pick-me-up similar to a cup of coffee. If you snort the refined version, you end up tweaking.
It's a drug...But caffeine is a drug that kills more people. Tylenol has even killed more people, and water to...I bet Dimetapp buried more bodies than marijuana will ever bury. But just because the truth is there doesn't mean you won't always, and I mean literally fuckin' always have that guy over there saying he was taught this or that...Fuck 'em, you can't convince them, they refuse to see facts as facts instead rubbing them off as part of a conspiracy from pro-marijuana advocates. Neglecting the study came from this university here, another one across the pond, a few more up North...You just can't fix stupid, so you hope it dies off quickly due to lack of any real kind of logic. Be all like, "Darwin bitch slap, son!"
It contains numerous psychoactive compounds (drugs). So, yes, it is a drug. Just because something's a drug it doesn't necessarily mean it has detrimental effects on the body and a high addiction potential.

How many times are people going to post this thread? It's always the same shit. We get it. We're all tired of cannabis prohibition. Instead of complaining about it, get involved. Join NORML. Write to your elected officials. Become educated in the pharmacology and medical benefits of weed. Share that knowledge. If you have friends who look down on you for smoking, then just don't share your habit with them. It's not something that needs to be shouted from the rooftops.
I get this shit every day. People act like I'm addicted and seem to think it's destroying my life. It really isn't, it's just habitual behaviour which isn't very hard to stop when you want to. They ask me, "If you aren't addicted why don't you stop". Maybe because I don't even see it on the same level as other drugs. It has no negative effects on me. I might get lazy if I have a long smoking session with friends but that's only if we go through 2Gs each which is a VERY rare occasion. I never make bad, intoxicated decisions like many of my friends do when they over consume alcohol. In fact, I think I make less biased decisions because I'll see something from an out of the box point of view so to speak. Currently in hospital using it to treat Chronic pain. They'd rather prescribe me opiates which don't even give me quality of life and have a range of side effects from itching all over, nausea, constipation, anxiety and depressive thoughts. All of which but the constipation I manage to counteract with the weed. The plant is a perfect medicine for a lot of conditions. Providing you know what strain to use for what. I find it shocking that people don't even know how influenced they have been by propaganda. The only health risk I can possibly think of with weed is triggering schizophrenia and possibly other mental issues with people who are predisposed to have it, Yet I still haven't seen irrefutable proof on the matter. It also doesn't effect me as none of my relatives that I know of suffer from mental illnesses. I could write about this all day, but unfortunately ignorant people will always exist. I'd rather not think about it and do my own thing.
90% of young people i know that don't smoke weed have no problem with it it's just the older generations that have always had an issue with it because of propaganda and brainwashing
This topic right here is the reason why I am relocating from Houston Texas, to Seattle Washington... I am to become a hard working American who does whatever the fuck I want to during my own time and I elect to peacefully enjoy my cannabis addiction... Because I gave up my tobacco addiction and beer/alcohol addiction because I enjoy my addiction to cannabis and I don't wake up hungover the next day. I as an adult can enjoy any addiction I want and I choose television addiction, food addiction (I am 200 lbs and a stable fatty) and cannabis oil and smoke addiction. Like this post for those who agree. We are responsible smokers and we are abundantly out there.
