Ask the beattles the same question, or Dali, or any music band, artist, painter, poet, NOSTRADAMUS for christ sake.
Before you say your life is better because you never taken any, try some, then you might know something about drugs and not what you see on TV or in panflets.

I can tell you that MY life is better without them, but not necesarly yours or his.
Drugs made me realize many many things about life, situations, and mostly myself. It made me realize that I wasn't here on earth to waste my freakin life workin at a useless lousy job and that I wanted more for myself.

If I haden't tried drugs, I might not have realized that and I probably would'nt be where I am now.

Diss, decide on your own.

Horrible advice

I can tell you that by watching a train wreck it's a bad thing even though I've never been in one.

Drugs had nothing to do with you figuring yourself out.

Like I said, I've smoked in the past. But to tell the truth, I've never bought it. I've always bummed off of friends . And I'm sure it's much more expensive now. I probably don't want to spend the money.

No I dont, I just want you to realize that you are narrow minded and dont know what you are talkin about.
In your mind, drugs are bad, only because you heard so.

Drugs suck, in general, I agree. But the subject here is Weed. And many many people are happier smokin weed everyday. It's not for me but it is for others. And I respect that.
How many vilent crimes have you heard about related to weed. How many overdoses? Weed was legal until someone made it illegal in the Washington era.
Weed was used to make ropes, make up, paper and clothes. And it can be used today to make methanol gas (for cars). With 1000000 sq. f. you can make 15 times more paper with weed than with trees over 5 years. Because weed grows back imediatly, tree take over 20 years. Imagine how much paper you can make in 20 years!! And Male weed plants dont produce any buds so they could only plant male plants to make paper. Millions of forest aqers could be saved if the freakin thing wasn't so taboo!
2 of the worst polution problems could be partialy solved with the Marijuana plant.

And I bet you didnt know that.

Keep on judging Ted.

That's really nice.

You've supplied the standard 1 liners in the Guide to Weed Advocacy and Propaganda Handbook

The benevolent weed smoker who never hurts anybody is the biggest myth and the biggest joke I have ever heard. I've seen it firsthand. What happens the next day when you come down and are all pissed off because you need a fix? What happens when you are so jacked up that you have no idea what the hell you are doing?

About making ropes, etc, that has absolutley nothing to do with smoking it. Paint is used to beautify buildings but that doesn't give it any more credibilty to use as a drug.

But hey, find a new playbook because that one has already been played out.

As far as being narrow minded and judgemental, hey, there's a big difference between that and just outright telling someone to stop being a dumbass. duh.

You know...I don't wish this on you, and I would be sad for you if it happened...but...

I think it'd be slightly hilarious if you got a sexually transmitted disease, if'n you actually consistently "hit it"

Seriously, you can **** up your life so much more having sex one time than you can smoking marijuana habitually.

On a similar note, responsible marijuana smoking (which is different levels for different people) can be just as benefitial as responsible sex.

And regarding the hemp ropes, etc. you weed advocacy people need to grow up and stop using that as a reason to legalize it.

You guys could care less about making rope. You just want to smoke it, and that's the bottom line.

So at least grow up and be honest about it.

How is it a bad analogy? It's absolutely true! Though it was tailored more to what I know of you (which isn't much, of course).

Look, I have no problem with the no-drug crowd. I think you standing by your opinion is fine. I, personally, like marijuana and will continue to smoke it. Advice was asked, and I dispensed it. Whether he does it or not is his choice, not mine, nor would I force my opinion on him without him asking.

There are just a bunch of things that are bad for you and, in my personal opinion, marijuana is very low on the list.

Though...again, to be fair...perhaps I wouldn't do it as much if I could consistently get laid.

Didn't you read what I wrote? I only smoke it occasionaly, and I dont give a **** if it's legal or not cuz I'll find some anywhere.
It is because it is illegal that we dont use it to make great stuff.

Face it, people smoke it even if it's illegal. You can find some anywhere, I mean ANYwhere.

Well I don't know how old you are. I've personally seen that sh1t abused more than enough times to count. The most annoying thing is the "it's just pot," crowd.

Then at age 30 they wonder why they have quit their job and they are scared of noises in the dark all the time.

Harmless? Hardly. Killing me softly applies more than ever.

We aren't talking about prohibition and I've already had this argument with you years ago.

Whether or not he should do it is the issue and in my opinion (which is better than yours 100% of the time) he shouldn't do it, espeically if he is having social problems.

As I have stated before, weed has much stronger long term effects than alcohol does.
