Re: The long-term heavy use problem is really not about the drug itself

Governments can tax alcohol/tobacco sales, people can grow their own pot too easily. It's not hard to figure out why it's illegal.
IMHO - Governments will only support something that's "bad" for you if they can make a fortune off you by doing it.

An article that's started some debate in the office...

I have no problem with marijuana being illegal. nt

Me either, I don't care too much. NT

It's the drug industry that produced Howard Marks. It's a lot less killy than most.

Yhorian(VIP) November 21, 2008 05:29AM

The two are almost unrelated

daurwyn(VIP) November 20, 2008 02:56PM

Watch the movie "Super High Me" n/t

The long-term heavy use problem is really not about the drug itself

Coumidin November 20, 2008 07:03AM

Ummm

WarEagle November 20, 2008 07:33PM

I lived in the Netherlands for 5 years. Where weed has been legal forever.

Yhorian(VIP) November 21, 2008 05:41AM

Wrong

cyril November 20, 2008 09:48PM

P.S.

WarEagle November 20, 2008 07:35PM

How ignorant.

Someone Not Special, Esquire November 20, 2008 11:26PM

What other factors are there that contribute to that difference? nt

Nivek(VIP) November 21, 2008 06:39AM

That's a very tough question to answer..

Someone Not Special, Esquire November 21, 2008 11:27PM

Gateway drugs isn't just bullshit

daurwyn(VIP) November 20, 2008 02:58PM

Marijuana is a gateway drug BECAUSE it's illegal.

Sam November 20, 2008 10:55PM

I'll actually back this. My dealer got into cocaine by knowing other dealers. nt

Yhorian(VIP) November 21, 2008 05:30AM

Exactly

daurwyn(VIP) November 20, 2008 03:00PM

Pot is 'nigger weed'

Rade November 20, 2008 08:48AM

Other big reason

Lokain November 20, 2008 11:48AM

Outlaw cigarettes as well for greater equality. nt

DurNominator(VIP) November 20, 2008 09:44AM

Why do you hate America? nt

Rade November 20, 2008 04:43PM

I hate cigarettes. I want them outlawed.

DurNominator(VIP) November 21, 2008 11:12AM

Rade November 21, 2008 02:25PM

Indeed.

Scrimbul November 21, 2008 12:27PM

It's very easy to make your own beer.

ExPaladin(VIP) November 20, 2008 08:37AM

I agree, mutes that argument because it's also a LOT easier than growing weed. nt

Yhorian(VIP) November 20, 2008 10:00AM

I beg to differ.

jhyrbian November 21, 2008 03:51AM

And you wouldn't with Marijuana?

Yhorian(VIP) November 21, 2008 05:32AM

Only applicable sales taxes depending on your state

ExPaladin(VIP) November 21, 2008 04:42AM

Depends on the quantity

daurwyn(VIP) November 20, 2008 03:02PM

Depends on whether or not you're in sunny Florida

cyril November 20, 2008 11:15AM

Without having read the article,

bell November 20, 2008 06:45AM

I've got two fundamental issues with this story

ExPaladin(VIP) November 20, 2008 06:29AM

It takes some time to develop the drug, but it gives Yhorian some hope with his advancing condition. nt

DurNominator(VIP) November 20, 2008 08:33AM

syphilis? nt

Isildur(VIP) November 20, 2008 01:24PM
