US News BREAKING NEWS: California Lawmakers To Debate Marijuana Legalization Tomorrow!

[Failenx]

>>I am aware that its used for medical purposes for some people and I'm not sure if i even like that idea

Marijuana is used for medical purposes to reduce pain for patients who are most likely going to die.

>>Go smoke your Marijuana or whatever you guys want see how far that takes you in life.

Marijuana doesn't effect your life.. heck, it isn't even addictive. This drug is no worse than a cig. The only reason this drug can be bad, is what people might end up doing when they're high. Oh wait, we already have something like that that is legal: Alchohol.

Qft.

At least pot is safer than regular cigarettes...

Not really....

Not really....

It most certainly is! If you don't think that you are truly ignorant.:nuts::nuts:

 

[ReVolver]

This is stupid!

The world is coming to an end wow. Cal will be full of retarded pot heads and fuck ups.

Okay kids smoking weed is not bad anymore. fucking retards

I get back aches from my condition and work, would I rather take a prescribed narcotic (like Vandyke) and have the chances of overdose? or smoke some cannabis... I get prescribed cannabis from my doctor but I rather just grow it at home and save me some money and not get questioned by officials when I have it in my car or if I smell like it at work.

Please guys, try to keep that on a friendly tone. I was forced to delete a couple, irrelevant posts.

Thanks.

Then it does effect your life. You want be high and you can do some crazy things. Isn't that right?

No, it can be just as bad. I mean I smoke both, don't get me wrong like I'm saying I hate it, but it's not 'better' for you by any means. Everyone rationalizes that it is because you're not inhaling chemicals, but I wouldn't doubt that there's shit in it to make it more potent. But if you want to tell me that inhaling smoke that may or may not have random chemicals that aren't regulated is better than my Turkish Royals, then you are ignorant. I've seen pot laced with cocaine, LSD, meth a times, powdered heroine... all of which are way fucking worse than a cigarette especially given the amount people smoke at once.

I don't know what you're talking about but this definitely affects me...

I don't live in California... you don't live in California... it doesn't affect us unless you want to move to California, which there is no way in hell I am going there. I hate that state....

That's the exception though, typically if you can trust where you get it from (this is more common than you think) and you are knowledgeable about what it should look, smell and taste like then you definitely wont get something that laced with other drugs or chemicals. However yes, it can happen on occasion (another + for legalization :thup

>>Then it does effect your life. You want be high and you can do some crazy things. Isn't that right?

You're just basing your thoughts exaggerated governmental propaganda. Obviously it doesn't make you go crazy...unless you consider eating a whole pie of pizza and 2 bags of chips between 3 people crazy.

I guess most people do transactions behind closed doors kinda thing. I've almost always lived in big cities (New York, Detroit, Baltimore, ect) and it wasn't like that when I was getting it, I walked down the street and found the first guy who asked me if I wanted any. But even here, I know that the people I buy it from don't grow it, so I have no idea what's happened to it as it went down the line. BUT... stop telling me my fucking cigarettes are bad for me. It's not a good argument for legalization, because it's also bad to inhale the smoke and fumes when I'm painting or welding. We better not let people do that without appropriate safety gear.

Depends on how high you get... and one time I did play with a low power tazer, had a big red mark on my face the next day.

Anyway, I don't really have anything to say on topic so... umm... is it still going to be legal to get it without paying taxes? NO! Therefore mine is cheaper, take that California.

 

[Matemeo]

On the issue of laced marijuana: this is another argument for legalization! If you regulate it and control it you only ship out clean marijuana. As in marijuana having the ability to become as bad as cigarettes...please explain your thinking here as an any parallel between the two drugs marijuana is undeniable safer.

And if you taze yourself while high then you were either a) child who shouldn't be smoking period, or b) just ridiculously high. I mean so high that you left the ground and floated away. Which is not the norm.

And the inhalation of chemicals while painting or welding is nothing to sucking down twenty cigarettes a day, don't even try that one.

Except you're high... cigarettes don't make me high and therefore I can drive. I mean I drive just fine high, but fuck there are a lot of people that can't.

And if you taze yourself while high then you were either a) child who shouldn't be smoking period, or b) just ridiculously high. I mean so high that you left the ground and floated away. Which is not the norm.

Or... you're just boring? I don't think you would be very fun to smoke or drink with if you're not willing to have some fun. What do you do, play video games and pass out? Besides it felt cool at the time.

And the inhalation of chemicals while painting or welding is nothing to sucking down twenty cigarettes a day, don't even try that one.

It is when you're sitting in a shop for ten hours a day welding using a shitload of weird metals. Which is what I did and would like to find another job doing.

I will remember to take the bus in California so I can avoid the roads if this is passed.

At least at night anyways. =/

Because that bus driver don't smoke pot ever... I would get a pocket bike and drive on the sidewalk.

And hopefully when legalized it'll still be illegal to drive high, so it's a moot point. Don't drive when high, it's a responsibility issue.

There is a difference between having fun, and being childish. And for your information I do a large variety of things high, the usual is to get friends and gf together bake and then mob around town finding shit to do. Though playing Smash Bros with your friends high is amazingly fun.

The point isn't that inhaling those fumes/chemicals from working isn't dangerous, it's that in comparison to tobacco it's relatively harmless. This is also slightly off-topic.

To add another point, it's ludicrous that cigarettes are taxed and regulated while they are at the same time proven to cause thousands of deaths every year due to various types of cancers. And tobacco is physically habit-forming. Marijuana is not, where is the logic in this?

Driving high is FAR safer than driving drunk, and guess what! Tons of people do that everyday, all the time. Why don't you get a bus pass now?

I don't smoke, but I'm for legalization. It will put a nice helping hand on things like lacing weed with LSD and other hard drugs, and make people less likely to buy hard drugs like LSD, Heroin, Meth, ect. because they're not there when you're buying your weed, and flat out end a lot of crimes over this.

Oh, and R 3 T R O, you need to lay off the government propaganda, because a lot of the stuff they tell you is bullshit to make you steer away from it. Having a few drinks with friends isn't bad, and doesn't make you a bad person. Now if you get drunk all the time, you might want to consider taking a look at your life. Same goes with weed. Don't generalize the drinking/smoking population by the few retards that abuse it.

This guy made some great points. It's the only video I found so far other than one with a bunch of cuts. If I find a whole video of the debate I'll post it.

I've been professional my entire life. I think it's fine to be a bit childish when I'm high.

To add another point, it's ludicrous that cigarettes are taxed and regulated while they are at the same time proven to cause thousands of deaths every year due to various types of cancers. And tobacco is physically habit-forming. Marijuana is not, where is the logic in this?

It's habitual the majority of the time (tobacco). Marijuana was illegalized to save the paper and logging industry because hemp was cheaper to produce, all I said was that it's not better for you than cigarettes because it's not; why are you making this into a huge debate? I tazed myself with a cheap little toy thing because it felt cool and we had nothing better to do, and it's not good to inhale any kind of smoke, there is no debate. It's all bad to inhale, get over it.

Inhaling marijuana (if that's what you are referring to) is no worse than eating a cheeseburger. Nobody has died from inhaling weed. Just wanted to point it out.
