Why are some people so against weed?

Fuck weed that stuffs for losers who can't do anything with their lives..

 

Some of those are just regular people just giving their opinion. A misinformed opinion on a subject they know nothing about. People do it all the time. You do it too I bet

 

Easy. Propaganda and false, biased imaging.

 

While you have 3000 posts?
Just messin man

 

Steve Jobs smoked mad pot when he was developing Apple and Mac computers. He's super successful now, don't you think? lol. I really wish people did speak out more.

 

OK, I'm focused on medical uses since I do use cannabis medically. I feel that the medical reasons on their own are enough to warrant legalization! Here's a little bit from my List (1st link in my sig) to help educate those who know only what they learned in DARE-

Cannabis does all that and more! (Click that first link in my sig and read!)

Are they are against it because it "gives you a giggle"? Must medicine be always be a "bitter pill"? And what's so bad about "feeling good", anyway? And if "feeling good" is bad, why are Paxil and other anti-depressants prescribed so often in the US?

Or is it that it has not been FDA approved? (FYI- Cannabis has a written medical history of over 4,000 years- without a single overdose fatality! You can't say that of many medicines, whether herbal or man-made.)

And what exactly does that "FDA approval" do for us? We are sold FDA approved anti-depressants that may cause "suicidal thoughts", erectile aids that can make you go deaf or blind, and allergy remedies that may cause "rare, but fatal" side effects! Listen to the "fast talk" at the end of any prescription drug commercial- it's dang scary!

And cannabis is safer than aspirin!

Ignorance and misinformation.

 

look at any question about smoking weed on yahoo answers and see the answers people give. It honestly makes me loose hope or humanity. How can , in this day and age, so many people be so un-educated. whatever, weeds legal in colorado and washington now, IMA FORGET ABOUT ALL THOSE IDIOTS WITH A ROAD TRIP

 

Propaganda and slander. I've showed my parents all the facts and all the benefits but because its ILLEGAL its the devils herb. The Union is the best weed related documentary

 

i hate when people are super adamant about anything. like, you could be wrong, chill the fuck out.

 

Because they are idiots who think the government should regulate people's personal business.

 

Ignorance.

 

Because they don't know, what it be.

Terrible DMX spin.

 

Ignorance.

 

I was mostly against it because my parents always told me not to smoke when I was younger.

 

i absolutely hate the ignorant people who, even when presented with evidence, just deny deny deny and close their mind completely to any other information then that which they learnt in PDHPE class and government websites. They assert themselves correct and us as idiots with delusional conspiracy theories when they are just spouting bullshit and we are using logic and fact to convey our point, and they call us stupid and retarded. Fuck it pisses me off beyond belief

 

Try being an atheist youngest child in a religious family, trust me.

Seriously though, who cares? Some people like DD McD Marlboro and Budweiser, let them do them, everyone causes harm to their body.
