hahaha i love these one word debates. everyone with any sense of decency, social security and intelligence will side with me and the NOs. when i say social security i mean people who dont need drugs to fuck with their body to make them happy--they can be happy naturally. if it were legalized more people would do it, and with everyone high society would fail because noone would do anything.

You are right... its the smoking equivalent to alcohol... and its even less harmful to your health... its not addictive or anything... plus hemp can save the planet if people would look into it... if it were more avalable hemp products wouldnt be as expensive plus there are so many health problems it helps... depression, cancer.. etc...

youre just finding an excuse to ignore the mainstream views of planet earth so you can get high. are you depressed? probably. why the fuck else do people take drugs? cuz they suck at being happy. if you arent able to be happy on ur own then you have a problem--stop trying to change federal law for your personal endeavors

omg, its not addictive. It really isnt. people who do it in excess arent hooked, they won't go threw withdraw, they may miss the feeling, but they won't trip out. alcohol, and ciggerettes, and even 80% of all medicine is addictive. But millions, heck, even billions of people use those prodocts. How many of us have ever taken somthing to help us sleep, or cleared up our nose with a spray, chances are that that medicine was addictive. you would have to smoke 40000 times the amount of pot, that would get you stoned to overdose. as apposed to lik 10 asprain killing you, its not bad. you drink 10 beers you are bound to pass out and drown in your own vomit. You smoke 10 joints, you fall asleep. And it helps people defet cancer. why not use it for them. The only way for some people to fight back against cancer is to use kemo therapy. And kemos cause you to get sick, vomit, not be able to hold down food, not have an appitite, and not sleep well. pot will litteraly force you to eat, won't allow you to vomit, won't allow you to feel sick, and will make you very sleepy. It can make people stronger and more able to fight cancer. Also the plant, hemp, can be used to make 1000's of products, cheper, and stronger then others. So why is it illegal? Because concervitives are worried that the people will become lazy. look at jamaca. its become one of the richest, most laid back, happy countires in the world. And we don't rag on them for legalizing maray jane. Shit they legalized it becuase bob marley sang a fucking song about it. so whats the problem with you people. Don't look at it as a drug. look at it as just another substance. yes some will abuse it, but the benifits outway the bad on this one. I had to watch family members suffer and die of cancer, and if anything could have helped them, I would have given them it.

I occasionally use marijuana, yet I don't need drugs to make me happy, I just enjoy the affects. I can be happy naturally and most of the time I am.

I say no. I seen the effects of it in some people in my school who now do weed and they were well behaved, and quite intelligent in 1st year & 2nd year, now they are pretty stupid and sutff.

if it were legal, as cyrus said, most people wouldnt rly work or anything. the level of intelligence would be lower, and with that, its another thing that will slowly kill people, it DOES give lung problems, and will probley do a similar thing that smokeing in general does

so true

the opinions of those who realy are in favour (or at least a majoity) are those who do it "socialbly", but those who are recoving from abusing it, i would guess would probley be against.

its bad for you, makes you happy alright, but it is bad for you in the long term

There's no physical addiction to it, hope we've got that past plenty of people. Now, I'd have to agree with the people who said no because it can take away the attention in a person's life. They get into this group and they can end up screwing up. But if it's only for the feeling and not so much as to throw away your life on the drug, then I'd say yes, legalize it. Everyone knows what pot can do to you hopefully, if they think it's cool to do it anyways, then they can go ahead and do it, it is their decision isn't it? Because they're still doing it now, there's no difference whether it's legalized or not.

weed is a natural growing plant so theres no "bad" stuff in it

ciggs have tar, nicotine, and other crap in it

i say weed is better than ciggs because if you smoke as many ciggs as weed your lungs are in better condition

as for your motor skills being impaired i agree with serial-thrilla that alcohol is worse than weed in that sense

The part of marijuana that gets you high is called `Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol.' Most people just call this THC. but barely any is put in marijuana.

October 26th, 2005, 07:10 PM

yes it is
Yes. Long-term marijuana use can lead to addiction in some people. That is, they cannot control their urges to seek out and use marijuana, even though it negatively affects their family relationships, school performance, and recreational activities (9). According to one study, marijuana use by teenagers who have prior antisocial problems can quickly lead to addiction (3). In addition, some frequent, heavy marijuana users develop “tolerance” to its effects. This means they need larger and larger amounts of marijuana to get the same desired effects as they used to get from smaller amounts.

a bit, but it does.
it is as bad as alcholMarijuana has serious harmful effects on the skills required to drive safely: alertness, concentration, coordination, and reaction time. Marijuana use can make it difficult to judge distances and react to signals and sounds on the road.


Marijuana may play a role in car accidents. In one study conducted in Memphis, TN, researchers found that, of 150 reckless drivers who were tested for drugs at the arrest scene, 33 percent tested positive for marijuana, and 12 percent tested positive for both marijuana and cocaine (1). Data have also shown that while smoking marijuana, people show the same lack of coordination on standard "drunk driver" tests as do people who have had too much to drink ().


i would never get in a car with someone who is drunk but i would with someone who had just smoked.
Well, thats your funeral

And do not right any off this off just because it is from a government website. It is still factual information, and is the same exact thing as if you were to use a pro weed site

Just thinking, if people for it being legalised got their way, wouldnt more and more people who are on other drugs want the same, even though they are worse?

like drugs are bad, hence why they are illigal! they are illigal for a reason, they are a risk to public health, no matter what you say, they are, many would agree, however many others (who most likly have done pot) dont. They only reason why the gov's dnt take tabacco off the shelves, is becouse there are so many people on it, plus the most "important" thing of all, they get a HUGE amount of money from the sales of them (Here in Ireland, they have an excise duty on ciggs)

They are illigal for a reason, leagalizing it would be taking a step away from reality, and alot of things would fall apart, your opinions are one thing, but facts are there, it would.

No, not physical addictio, does that even say physical in there? It's mental addiction and that only means you want to do it because it feels good, and it's not a strong addiction. Plus what does alcohol do? Very similar. In only some people the addiction is stronger than others. But in most people it doesn't even happen and it's more of a social think.

Marijuana is not addictive. Not only that, but it's been medically proven that it's healthier than cigarettes. Whereas both put carcinogens into your system, Marijuana has an active ingredient that combats said carcinogens.

Hemp is among one of the most productive and useful plants known; also very safe. The following materials can be made from hemp: paper, textiles, building materials, food, medicine, paint, detergent, varnish, oil, ink, and fuel. Unlike many crops, hemp can be grown in most locations and climates with only moderate water and fertilizer requirements. Where hemp is grown, it has become a valuable and environmentally friendly crop

Hemp is the world’s best paper making material from a quality, environmental and sustainability standpoint. One acre of hemp provides the same amount of pulping material grown in four acres of trees. Hemp paper resists decomposition and does not yellow like tree-derived paper. Hemp’s long outer fibers create superior quality paper for books and magazines. Hemp’s short core fibers make superior newspaper, tissue paper and packaging materials. Hemp paper processing mills do not require chlorine or other harsh chemicals that can end up in rivers, streams or the local water supply. Best of all, hemp fiber is the strongest natural fiber in the world, which means it can be recycled several times more than paper made from wood or other alternative fibers, and it takes only 4 months to harvest!

So why not use it? Why do we clear countless forest's to create minimal paper, when hemp is a more efficient alternative? What do you all think about using hemp instead of trees? I for one am for it, because there are few if any cons to the subject.
(the above was quoted from Hemp.co.uk and my own words)


I quoted myself on that one. And then of course I shall quote my self once more below:

ok, lets think about this. If a guy is violent, angry, yelling, fighting cursing, is he high, or drunk.....DRUNK.

Now, lets count it up. How many pot related death's have their been in the last....idk....100 years....anyone....mabye 2....3. I'll give it a 10 just to be nice.

Now how many alcohol related deaths have their been in the last....idk....10 years.....5000, 10000, No over 22000 people die a year from alcohol abuse.

Now, how many ciggerette related deaths have their been in the last idk, 1 years....200000 300000, NO, over 440000 die a year from ciggeratte related use.

Now wait a miniute, look at those numbers. And you say pot is horrible. no no no somthings not right!?! explain to me why pot is so bad now?

it doesent affect your judgement nearly as much as alcohal does so i dont even see why we are evening questioning if it should be legal or not.

You are right... its the smoking equivalent to alcohol... and its even less harmful to your health... its not addictive or anything... plus hemp can save the planet if people would look into it... if it were more avalable hemp products wouldnt be as expensive plus there are so many health problems it helps... depression, cancer.. etc...

youre just finding an excuse to ignore the mainstream views of planet earth so you can get high. are you depressed? probably. why the fuck else do people take drugs? cuz they suck at being happy. if you arent able to be happy on ur own then you have a problem--stop trying to change federal law for your personal endeavors thats just you being very ignorant and not knowing anything about anyone who does do it. do you think ill have a shitty day and smoke pot just because im not feeling good. no.

Hemp is among one of the most productive and useful plants known; also very safe. The following materials can be made from hemp: paper, textiles, building materials, food, medicine, paint, detergent, varnish, oil, ink, and fuel. Unlike many crops, hemp can be grown in most locations and climates with only moderate water and fertilizer requirements. Where hemp is grown, it has become a valuable and environmentally friendly crop

Hemp is the world’s best paper making material from a quality, environmental and sustainability standpoint. One acre of hemp provides the same amount of pulping material grown in four acres of trees. Hemp paper resists decomposition and does not yellow like tree-derived paper. Hemp’s long outer fibers create superior quality paper for books and magazines. Hemp’s short core fibers make superior newspaper, tissue paper and packaging materials. Hemp paper processing mills do not require chlorine or other harsh chemicals that can end up in rivers, streams or the local water supply. Best of all, hemp fiber is the strongest natural fiber in the world, which means it can be recycled several times more than paper made from wood or other alternative fibers, and it takes only 4 months to harvest!

So why not use it? Why do we clear countless forest's to create minimal paper, when hemp is a more efficient alternative? What do you all think about using hemp instead of trees? I for one am for it, because there are few if any cons to the subject.

And you do not know that. People are unpredictable when in different states of mind than normal.

Alcohol and ciggs are excepted in society. Remember during prohibition? Could not keep the alcohol out of anywere. It was excepted in society. If we try to bann it again (which wouldnt be too bad of an idea) the same thing would happen. But what would happen if we legalize mary? It would be just like alcohol and ciggs, and one more thing to add to where people could use it while driving, etc. If its off the streets not, lets keep it off the streets

people will use them for driving regardless if they are leagel or not. and if its leagel then it less likey to fall in the hands of our children. and I know that sounds farfetched, but its true.

ok then
Ciggarents
age 18 is the legal age to get it if i am not mistaken.
But MANY MANY kids even some in middle school as early as 12 are smoking.
Now whats do you think is going to happen even if it is legalized? It will be even easyer for them to get from people who will beable to buy it legaly

if it was legalised, there would be an age limit on it anyways. Besides, a teenager can get it from the man down the street anyways, so teens can already get it
