You're not very good at being pro-legalization if you want to hide the fact that you've smoked it.

My friends know I smoke, but not from blatantly saying so on a site like Facebook. Why the hell would I do that? My parents have a facebook and could see ♥♥♥♥ on there. In a year when I move out, I could care less. But while I'm stuck here for another year, I am a "non-smoker". ♥♥♥♥, they don't even think I drink either.

Coward.

I will not allow myself to be cut off from the world.
They'd probably want to send me to rehab. It's ridiculous.

Beautifull glass peices Orphanim, and a really good user guide
I feel i should chip in here with a little medical hard Fact.
ill try to summarise stuff in short, i havent read the whole thread so forgive me for repitition, i will remove repeating areas if im told about them
dope contains THC and CBD this is the important stuff!

THC,
This gets you high, and is what most stoners are after.
varieties like white widow, white rino ect have been bred for high concentrations of this
CBD
Strains with more equal CBD to THC levels have even moar healthy effects,
older strains often have more equal THC to CBD levels

Negative Effects of weed
has a miniscule chance that it may cause schitzophrenia if smoked with an undeveloped brain,
*AKA underaged* but there is also strong research to suggest the opposite
although the only other REAL negative effects are the kind of dumb behaviour you see in cheech and chong, people who are too stoned at the wrong time.
the most important point => DO NOT SMOKE WEED IF IT MAKES ANY OF YOUR PRE EXISTING MENTAL PROBLEMS WORSE
mostly misconceptions on negative effects though you should avoid smoking only THC strong stuff as the CBD counters negative effects
Positive Effects of weed
increased appetite
alleviates nausea
helps to deal with glaucoma, asthma and some special needs (EXAMPLE)
most people who smoke the stuff could write pages and pages about misconceptions and i could too
but ill just describe how it helps with some medical conditions specifically

Glaucoma
helps to reduce the swelling of the eye, releaving the stress and pain
dope is strange that in the case of glaucoma it helps
even though it generally increases blood pressure

Cancer Affected
helps those on chemo to eat due to increased appetite (MUNCHIES )
it counters both pain and depression effectively and with NO NEGATIVE EFFECTS unlike any other cheap medicine
also recent research shows that CBD has a cancer preventative effect (BK)

thats pretty much it in a nutshell, dont take my word for it though and google about if you dont beleive me
dont beleive what the Gov. tells ya, they just present opinion as fact.

if you dont know much but wanna learn more watch
"The Union" or "Super High Me" the second being much more fun to watch.

Also if you live in the uk this might be interesting
Heres the website that got it back to Class B in the UK
Heres the one that exposes the above as lies

I haven't seen Super High Me, but I can definitely vouch for The Union.
Super High Me sounds like it is more geared towards entertainment, but I haven't watched, so I don't know.

Yeah, a dude gets baked for 30 days and films it. There are some interesting facts contained within the film, and it's definitely worth a watch regardless.
Also I just bought this

Loos great, how much you get it for?

I'm working on a little piece atm.

That ♥♥♥♥ is pretty.
Also:I do this too, we knew each other when I lived in the same place as her and decided to keep it going, it's been almost 3 years now ( ). She's arriving tonight, so I'll probably be pretty inactive in any case, but I'll be sure to go look for your recount once I'm back, or at any point I have time.

I'm not an expert on glasswork but I've got enough pipe experience to notice that the "soldering" on that little clear knob thing (wtf is that thing called and what is it's point) looks kind of half-ass to me.

Wow getting pretty worked up MLC. I don't usually expect that kind of angry vigour from you.

I think another point to bring up in this discussion is the USA's 1920's Alcohol Prohibition. It's the perfect parallel.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prohibitio ... ted_States
http://cocktails.about.com/od/history/a/prohibition.htm

Basically, from what I remember reading it a while ago, people just smuggled it all the time and actually got more drunk, as it was more alcohol efficient to smuggle high concentration booze. Organized and unorganized crime went up, and all the stuff you'd expect.

Comparing 1920s prohibition to the un-legalization of marijuana is ridiculous. Sure, it's a similar action, but the results are totally different; it isn't like most gangs nowadays are fueled by trafficking weed.

Yeah you're totally right weed trafficking is totally a profitless business and hardly any gangs do it OH WAIT EVEN THE GOVERNMENT ADMITS OTHERWISE (although for the wrong reasons of course)

I facepalmed so hard I can feel the back of my head.

(For anyone who didn't get it, that last post was a joke. It's sad how I have to insert a ":P" in there for people to understand that. Still, why would I be serious about Whitty exploding? >_>)

Cont: Anger? Enh? I thought that was a pretty calm last post, but maybe I didn't think about how people would interpret it enough.
Still, I've personally lost respect for him. He could have ignored the tweet altogether and not have had to lie in the first place.


EDIT:
Alcohol is much more addictive than marijuana probably is, so the trafficking of that was probably much worse than anything now.
Still, I'd think it is comparable, as a "black market" has been formed.
