  1. i ran across this article while browsing the net..

    http://www.freevibe.com/drug_facts/rightangle.asp#money

    here are a couple things in the article

    "We're all anxious enough about how we look without having to worry about the stained fingertips and teeth, stinking breath, and bloodshot eyes that come with smoking pot. People who smoke dope can look a little-well, skeazy. They might lose interest in their appearance. They can also get the munchies when they're high-and it's not exactly health food they binge on. They don't call that tire-shaped ring of flab around the middle of a pothead the "stoner's spare" for nothing. "

    "According to the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse, kids who frequently use marijuana are almost four times as likely to commit a violent act-against either people or property-than those who don't. They're five times as likely to steal. So smoking marijuana can get you in trouble with the law and result in later problems like not being able to get a scholarship or a job. "

    "You might be surprised to learn that marijuana contains the same cancer-causing chemicals as tobacco, and at higher concentrations. Smoking five joints a week is the equivalent of smoking an entire pack of cigarettes every day which, even in the short term, leads to lung and respiratory problems-wheezing, frequent chest colds and-yick!-a nasty phlegmmy cough."

    this type of shit pisses me off..
     
  2. :mad: lol propoganda. Bastards..
     
  3. hmm well obviously freevibe made it. Bunch of fascists.
     
  4. a better subject would probably be "why?"
     
  5. Because they where raised to believe it is a bad drug, just like someone would be raised to believe in god. It's not realy that complicated, if you think about it.
     
  6. Yep I was raised to believe marijuana was bad. But that only held up until about 11th grade lol.
     
  7. Speak for yourself. You have no idea what I'm anxious about. My fingertips and teeth are the same color that they've always been. My breath only smells when I'm running too late in the morning to brush my teeth. I haven't gotten bloodshot eyes from smoking for quite a while now.

    CAN. MIGHT. I shower, shave, comb my hair, brush my teeth, and use deodorant every day. I almost always wear khaki shorts/pants and a T-shirt, except at work. You know, married people often lose interest in their appearance. We better throw all those 'skeazy' married people in prison too!

    Millions of Americans eat huge amounts of unhealthy food; not just people who smoke weed. Besides, I know more stoners that are in good shape than I do stoners who are out of shape. In fact I've lost weight since I started smoking. Besides, I've never heard of a "stoner's spare." "Beer belly" definitely rings a bell, though.

    I've never met or heard of a person that was made more violent by marijuana. I have seen some very violent people chill out after smoking a blunt, though.

    This is misleading. It may be true that of the people surveyed, 4 times as many people checked the "Smoke Weed" box in addition to the "Steal" box. That doesn't mean the two were related. People that steal are going to steal whether or not they smoke weed.

    No shit. Why do you think millions of people lobby vigourously to remove the U.S. Government's unconstitutional prohibition on marijuana?

    You might be surprised to learn that marijuana has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancerous tumors. Or maybe you just forgot to mention that part. Yes, some of the chemicals in marijuana smoke are the same as some of the harmful chemicals in cigarette smoke. But not even close to all of them.

    I would believe this if I didn't hear a different figure every time this 'statistic' is shown.
     
  8. you forgot this one

    they are in there b/c you put them in there not b/c they are addicted.
     
  9. ^^^haha yeah thats true. they didn't ask to be there lol
     
  10. ha. i never "let myself go." i keep in good shape and take care of my appearance. whatever. marijuana kills too, you know.
     
  11. I do think people can steal because of marijuana and may become violent. Here is my reasoning...it's not marijuana directly. Don't take this the wrong way anyone but people that aren't the wealthiest people in the world may resort to stealing and robbing to get money for marijuana. Now this is a rare case but I know for a fact that it does happen in places such as the ghetto.
     
  12. LOL bullshit, I'd like to meet the faggots to wrote that shit and give them a swift kick in the face....fuckin lame lies
     
  13. Yeah or better yet, tie them down and force them to smoke and introduce them to the wonderful world of Ganja!
     
  14. hehehe stoner spare. i like it. why is it i had a stoner spare before i started smoking? ;)
     
  15. People like that would steal if they didn't smoke weed. It's not rare by any means. People in that situation are VERY likely to steal. They aren't spoiled white suburban kids whose parents have neverending bank accounts, so they don't always have money to buy things legally, so they steal. It's simple. It has nothing to do with marijuana. That's just another thing added to the list of things to steal or buy with stolen cash.
     
  16. I love freevibe. They're the bestest. I wish everyone could think like them. They're obviously much more knowledgable about this stuff than anyone else. Hold on, let me run that through altavista, translate it to German, then post it on their site. I'll even throw in a few swastikas to make them feel at home!
     
  17. lot of interesting points. they are trying to force people to make a decision rather that put the real facts in front of them and let them think on their own. really makes me pissed off. smoking weed has changed my life for the better. before i started smoking i was a negative, lazy, chubby, uninspired, and a generally irritating person to be around.

    now i am a positive thinker, in great shape, and i am tolerant to other people view points and all that ....
     
  18. the fact that people who "live in the ghetto" steal for weed doesn't mean a damn thing. they steal for a lot of things. there are a few people in every type of social class that smoke. there just happen to be some in the ghetto who steal as well.
     
  19. The funniest thing is that they contradict themselves by saying that people who smoke do bad in school. The funny thing is, almost every single post in their message boards has 3 or more spelling or grammatical errors and when you compare that to this site which isn't drowning in errors is kind of funny.
     
  20. i think half of their sites traffic is pot smokers looking for a laugh. watch the cartoons. they're great.
