So your saying coffee is worse then weed? The school was tough on your friends, but weed isn't legal and isn't something that's healthy.

If you even read more than one sentence in my post, you'd know that's not what I said at all. But while we're on that topic, it's true. Caffeine is worse than weed. Weed hardly damages your system at all, it's only political reasons that weed is illegal in the first place. No one has ever died from weed. Weed does not cause cancer, it does not shorten life expectancy. Tobacco does, too much caffeine can as well. Unless you're going to smoke pounds and pounds of weed all the time everyday, you aren't going to kill any brain cells. There is no reason it should be illegal.

Wow our college is so [expletive]ing strict...

 

My friends who got busted for weed were just told their sentence. They are suspended for a semester, evicted from housing for a year (which is basically suspended for an entire year), and they have to enroll in a drug rehab course to "cure their addiction."

 

WEED IS NOT ADDICTIVE. Studies show that caffeine is even more addictive than weed, and there has never been one reported death caused by marijuana alone. Why isn't it decriminalized? Who [expletive]ing knows.... our whole system is so corrupt. Can't believe this just happened. Now their futures are in jeopardy because of power hungry cops here.

Good. They deserve their punishment for being dumbasses. Whether you think it's bad for you or not, regardless, it's illegal and they got what was coming.

There are cops that do illegal stuff, so I don't get your point.

Oh, so that makes it ok. I forgot about that.

 

I'm sure a cop has commited suicide, murdered someone, or [expletive] like that. That doesn't make it ok though. I learned that in first grade.

Obviously someone who is that against marijuana has never tried it before. Do some research, there's nothing bad about it. Yes it's illegal, but the punishment is too harsh. It should be a fine at most, not a suspension and eviction from your college... being banned from campus grounds for months. For what, one joint? They weren't being dumbasses, they were being your typical college students. A large percent of kids have smoked/do smoke weed. Don't act like it's your place to call them idiots because you've never been put in the position to try it.

That's not the point he was trying to make at all. I don't care if you learned 2 years ago that a cop doing something bad doesn't make it right. That's obvious, what you're saying is that you whole heartedly agree with the severity of the punishments issued to those found with possession of marijuana.

Just because pot is illegal doesn't mean its bad. Has anyone ever died because it was bad to their health? No. Is it addictive like cocaine, crack, heroin, cigarettes? No. If you don't know anything besides it being illegal then don't say anything. EDIT I also forgot to say that perscription pills are LEGAL and they are the reason that most people die. Now thats worse than weed.

Exactly my point. The media tries to confuse its viewers by saying how "dangerous" and "deadly" pot is and how it will end your life.

 

Fact: NO ONE has ever died as a result of marijuana use.

 

Fact: Marijuana is NOT addictive. It is less addictive than caffeine for that matter.

 

Fact: When I was a young kid, around 10 years old, I was told in a presentation that one marijuana joint was equal to the damage of one entire pack of cigarettes. Wow...

 

People who are ignorant enough to sit there and say POT IS FOR DUMBASSES WHO WILL AMOUNT TO NOTHING have obviously never experienced it themselves, either by their own choice of refusal, or because they don't have friends who can hook them up or at least invite them to smoke with them.

 

Trutrojan, explain to me why you think something like tobacco is ok but marijuana is not.

I don't see how that helps your argument. People smoke two packs a day, and there are people I went to school with that light two joints a day. Same thing.

 

Let's say a pack of cigarettes has 10-12 in it (I wouldn't know, just a guess). What if that was a pack of joints? So one pack of joints (if real) would equal 10-12 packs of cigarettes? That's insane.

I was just throwing in a little something extra to prove my point that people make marijuana seem a LOT worse than it really is to make sure less and less people do it in their lives.

 

And trutrojan, obviously if you didn't enjoy it at all, then you were given the [expletive]tiest weed your school had because maybe your friend considered you a loser and wanted to help you enjoy yourself more. No shame in that, you just haven't enjoyed it to the fullest. It's no surprise that most people don't get high their first, second, or even third time. So if you did it a few more times and finally got truly high, you'd come back here changing your mind. No life threatening side affects, just a little bit of coughing and.... that's it.

Well [expletive], I forgot you knew about my social status. But, unlike you and your friend, I don't need to do drugs to fit in.

Ok first of all, I don't know who repped that post... :blink:

 

And second, you can judge people who smoke all you want. I'm not a pothead, but I do smoke every now and then. But you act like those who do smoke pot regularly are "less" than your current status, like you're better than everyone who does it. If you don't smoke, that's fine. I didn't pick it up until about 2 years ago, and I'm still the same person. It didn't make me any less of an athlete, or hurt my health whatsoever. I will admit some kids do it for the sake of being "cool", but in my case it's just something to do when you're chilling with a bunch of friends with no real plans going on. Nothing wrong there.

Regardless it's still illegal. It's your life, live it the way you want it. But if you're going to be doing something illegal, you shouldn't [expletive] about getting hit with consequences.

I only do because it involves something that isn't harmful to the user or anyone else around them. The punishment is far too harsh. A fine would be a more suitable punishment. Fine + withdrawal of all weed in the user's current possession, that's how I think it should be.

That wouldn't teach your friends [expletive]. It's not like they couldn't go get more weed if they wanted to. And weed isn't harmful to anyone around them or the user, and neither is child pornography. Is that ok to have lying around?

Ok well I'm not really sure why I'm arguing about this haha it's just my opinion. You clearly see this differently, maybe weed has harmed your life in some way and you are just so against it. You know for a fact that a ton of people do it, probably a good portion of your friends. There's no reason to judge them or see them as inferior to you. You aren't near perfect, no one is.
