What Cervantes is trying to say is: pot is bad for you and can lead to more serious drug use.

Thats a lie.


I've used pot for 4 years, and haven't tried anything else, except for shrooms once, and I haven't done them since that time.

You all belive the stupid tv commercials about drug use too much, its all lies to scare kids.

Well the truth is some ppl are more susceptible to drug addiction then others. Just because u haven't had serious side effects or addictions, other people have. And by saying that its all a lie, you discredit the personal experiences of others.

Everyone I know that is in my circle. does pot, and no other drugs.

So when you make generalizations that pot leads to other drugs, your just as bad as me saying it doesn't. From my personal experiance I'll say drug use doesn't lead to using harder drugs, and pot is a good thing.


Lets hear your personal experiance.

Well, something close to being called a personal experience is my best friend's brother in vancouver tried to kill him self after being addicted to cocaine, and he started on that from dealing with his so called "friends" who got him into pot.

touche. (i'd put the accent on the e, but im using windows ME, and hence, due to the suckiness of ME, a fatal error occurs when i try to open character map. Rolling Eyes )


regardless of whether pot is a gateway drug or not, why not stay away from it? I don't see the point of smoking pot.
oh and as for sideeffects, im pretty sure it shrinks your package, as well as reduced sperm count and reduced / distinguished sexual pleasure.

^True.

Wow, you get a high for a little while. Why don't you just masturbate for how long you are high for, I'm sure it feels a lot better and you are at least exercising your phallus instead of shrinking it.

To quote an awesome poem from somewhere:
If you smoke you choke,
If you do pot you'll rot.

Marijuana is bad for you, so you might as well not do it. But one must fit in somewhere... (sarcasm, I hope you weren't lured into that).

Edit:
Oh, and what's this little thing that requires someone to have done pot to have an opinion on it. I've heard that a couple times here. That's kind of stupid to say, considering that people have expressed opinions on politicals and abortion, though I'm sure most or all of the people have never had an abortion or been in politics.

pot is good for you, that's all there is to it... fuck your health, you only live once, enjoy it

Maybe I'm just ignorant here, but I can't see how inhaling smoke in any way could be good for you. Shit, even in church I try to hold my breath for long periods of time just to avoid inhaling the incense.

lol, you hollow out an apple and light sum pot up in it, and use it as a bong. Then when your done you eat the apple(best part!)

we were gonna try making a pumpkin into a bong on halloween, but ended up being too lazy and just smoking a real one... it'd be kinda gross through a pumpkin any way

the long term effects of pot on your health are far less than cigarettes, anyone who thinks other wise is just buying into the bull shit propaganda that the governments were putting out 20-40 years ago (starting from when they first illegalized it and fed the bull shit out of frustration that prohibition failed)...

if you haven't smoked pot before and experienced what it's like to be high, you can't really have a good understanding of whether it's good or bad. it may be bad for your health, but no body is dieing from smoking it and the people who are smoking it are enjoying themselves that much more. the way I see it, if I can still do everything I could before I started smoking pot, then it really isn't hurting me that much and I might as well keep doing it and enjoying it until I have a reason not to.

plus the amount of money the government wastes on preventing pot usage is ridiculous (total it's somewhere over a few hundred billion, probably more) and the thing is is that it's obviously not working, people are gonna keep smoking it whether the government wants them to or not.... I mean it's like the government trying to make sex illegal, it's just something that can't be controlled.

How can cigarettes be worse in the long-term than marijuana if a joint is the equivilent of 7 cigarettes (or something like that)? The problem with legalizing marijuana is that more people will be doing it, more people will be high more of the time, and in the future people will want to sue the government for allowing them the chance to smoke something that is killing them. People thought cigarettes weren't bad for the long-term at first...

Im guessing its because many ppl smoke marijuanna once a week or something.

Author:  octopi [ Wed Apr 28, 2004 5:14 pm ]
Post subject: 

yes, and the people who use it everyday, don't smoke as much as some cigarette users. a pack a day thats 12 cigarettes a day.

plus I'd also like to know where they get this magic 7 number from, is it an average?

you need to realize that people WILL manipulate things so it serves there purpose....do you seriously belive everything the anti drug organiations release? there is bias in everything.


meh you will die when your ready to die...if smoking doesn't kill you polution will. theres no point in limiting your life to give you an extra few years, if those few years are going to be pathetic.

uhh have you thought about what's in a joint and what's in a cigarette jonos?
joint - marijuana, a purely natural plant.
cigarette - tobacco, rocket fuel, tar, nicotine, etc.

also, look at how many people get cancer from cigarettes and how many get it from pot (I'll give you a hint, no one gets cancer from pot)

plus the "a joint is the equivalent to 7 cigarettes" is most likely not comparing them for their long term health effects, it's most likely comparing their short term physical effects (like how you feel after smoking it). which is still kinda bull shit... it's like comparing being high on pot to being high on shrooms to being drunk ... they just aren't the same.

definately. you will die eventually any way, what difference does it make how long you live?
sure some will say "oh but what if so and so smoked pot and died a few years younger he never would have done this or discovered that" to that I have to say this... what if that person had never been born in the first place? what if they were murdered? what if they hadn't done whatever because they just didn't want to? would it really have mattered? if it was absolutely necessary that they do this or that for humanity to survive, then it would have been discovered or done by someone else eventually.

Not to rag on you Maverick, but I'm sure that you are not serious about wanting alcohol addiction this early in your life. If you are an alcoholic at this age, you should go get help because I know a lot of alcoholics and they fuck up a lot.

mmm beer

but for a really really good numb sort of feeling, JD and pot. Very Happy (although whiskey isn't that great of a social drink unless others are drinking it too)

I'll try pretty much any drink or shot someone puts in front of me (as long as I know what's in it or am already too drunk to care haha)

oh and just to clarify... when I say that pot is good for you, I mean it's good for your mental health

Author:  jonos [ Thu Apr 29, 2004 6:21 pm ]

Unless it acts as a depressant on you or you are suffering from a mental thinger that that is bad with it. But yes, to most people it is good mentally.

Hey Homer, what is Coke (cocaine of course) like... and why would you try it?

Author:  PaddyLong [ Fri Apr 30, 2004 10:04 pm ]
Post subject: 

coke pretty much gives you energy and puts you in a really good mood... like you feel really motivated to do shit

Author:  jonos [ Sat May 01, 2004 5:59 am ]
Post subject: 

Yeah, but it's really fucking dangerous. I've heard of people who die the first time they take it, and it's also very addictive.
