Marijuana

[Jenson71]

The thread in D.C. makes me wonder some other things.

1. I smoke marijuana and want it to be legal
2. I smoke marijuana but want it to stay illegal
3. I do not smoke marijuana but would if it were legal
4. I do not smoke marijuana and would still not even if it were legal

Poll forthcoming.

[The Franchise]

Where's the "I used to smoke marijuana....and I really don't care either way" option?

[ChiefFripp]

I hate smoking weed but think it should be legal. It has way too many uses and some of the coolest people I know are potheads.

[kc rush]

I don't and won't. Thats just me.

Shouldn't this be a public poll so we can make some money out of this deal, Mr. Jenson71?

where is the "im ****ing stoned out of my gord" option



LMAO Was that a line in a movie or something? I've never heard anyone but my buddies say they were stoned out of their gord.

[luv]

If you smoke it, why would you want it to stay illegal? I know it would probably be heavily taxed, but wouldn't it be worth not having to risk going to jail?

[Skip Towne]

I've been saying that since 1948.

[plbrdude]

i used to smoke it. as far as legality goes, they could make it legal and tax it. could raise significant money for uncle sam. the way i see it, if booze is legal, weed should be. personally i don't have anything to do with either anymore and would recommend anyone else not to also. but hey, i'm a redneck.

[StcChief]

No and NO

[Nzoner]

No man it can't be legalized,I mean man I'd like be out of a job man.

There is no question that drugs (most of them, anyway) should be legalized. The war on drugs could not be any more stupid.

Hemp, for example, is a miracle plant that midwestern farmers can't grow because our politicians are idiots. We import hemp from throughout the world and pay out the nose for it.

If we decriminalize drugs, we would save countless billions in prison costs, insurance rates, and glass repair. I say, let's go for it.

Your trueness is a thing to behold, Mr. stevieray.

The thing is that, when the federal government illegalized pot, they illegalized the growing of hemp as well. That's why we import hemp from places like ... China. And, we pay a premium price. It's one of the stupidest laws of all times because, if we could grow our own hemp, farmers could afford to donate more money to political campaigns. And, if farmers could afford to donate more money to political campaigns, we wouldn't have stupid politicians who won't let us grow hemp.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that marijuana is Spanish for cannabis. And yes, mexican immigrants did have a large role in it becoming illegal. Only from the aspect of the racism that perverted this country at the time...........oh wait...........

yup. I heard something along the lines that a 1/4 acre produces the same amount of pulp that takes five acres of trees to produce...

it truly is pathetic.

[Hydrae]

Heck, by now we could have a way to power vehicles similar to E-85 but using hemp in some fashion. Even if that were not possible we certainly know we could make paper out of it and the light oil from the seeds could have a wide variety of uses. Even if we wanted to keep the THC laden product out of the country we should be planting and harvesting large quantities of industrial grade hemp.

Exactly the difference between pot and hemp. They killed a huge industry to try to control the recreational uses. Of course if you believe the story of how Hearst was involved in the push for illegalization (is that even a word?) then he was really going after the industrial form anyway and the recreational was the collateral loss.

I understand am certainly not trying to draw you into an argument. I am curious though, if you find prohibition laws to be an issue of morals. If they put pot on the ballet for legalization would you vote yes or no? Furthermore, if you voted no, is it simply because you don't use? If that is the case, does it not bother you in the slightest the government telling you not to do things based on some decades old agenda long outdated? I don't know, it just pisses me off having big brother looking over my shoulder regarding things that harm no one but me, and the last part is pretty debatable.

It's not a moral issue for me. It's a question of stupidity. There are plenty of stupid people out there. Most of them do not require the assistance of dope. I believe that more people would use it if it were legal, and we would have more stupid, doped up people stumbling around.

It isn't legal in the Netherlands, but how do you explain the Dutch phenomenon concerning soft drugs then? What I mean is, how do you explain their usage and addiction rates of marijuana are lower than ours and they have a free market on it.

Personally, I think toleration takes away the curious factor of it. A generation later after being tolerated there, marijuana just isn't that mysterious of a thing to them anymore. I view it kinda like a kid in a candy store, tell them no, they just want whatever it is even more.

much like when we had proabition. People went nuts to get their hands on booze. If Marijuana is made legal it will become no more abused than alcohol, which of course isn't really saying much.

THere is one in particular that works wonders on her migrains called purple urkle. 2 and a half days with a terrible migrain taking every med they have ever given her with no relief. 2 hits off of a pipe and 10 minutes later I get a "that's amazing" I said what. "my headache is completely gone"

I don't want anyone telling me what to do to myself.

The ONLY actions I want criminalized are those that hurt other people or their property.

I do not and would not use anything like that but damn sure don't want MY money used to lock up others who would or do.

It was a bad poll dude.

Read the options slowly. Work it out, use paper and pen if you need to. 127 people have figured out a response so far. You'll get there.

Make a poll asking if it was a bad poll. Hmm

Imagine...with hemp we could all enjoy a longer life with a longer penis.

And really now, lets think about this real "hard", Isn't that what the entire purpose of science and technology is all about. In fact isn't that what life is about. I think you have herein found the secret of life. My new mantra "lets all enjoy a longer life with a longer penis" Amen. Where can I get some weed?

I don't smoke the stuff, but I think keeping it illegal is useless & a waste

You should really stop crying about this. People understand that this is not a legality question from you. They want to talk about the legality though, and the option for smoking it but keeping it illegal was du-umb. It doesn't mean you are, you don't have to be butt hurt anymore.

I don't care about the poll. But I never pass up the chance to rough it up with Big Daddy.

It's a question of stupidity. There are plenty of stupid people out there. Most of them do not require the assistance of dope. I believe that more people would use it if it were legal, and we would have more stupid, doped up people stumbling around.

because alcohol makes people brain surgeons.

Although most evidence suggests that weed has some addictive properties, most evidence also suggests that it is much less addictive in nature than alcohol due in part to a "addiction" gene that isn't affected by THC. I feel it should be legal. The taxes would be huge, and I for one would love to take a few puffs before a chiefs game and not feel all bloated. Heck, the chips and snacks industries should be all over legalizing it. Really though, people on dope are usually pretty passive and people on alcohol are usually more agressive. Why not legalize it?

If we grew our own hemp, we wouldn't use pesticides because bugs don't eat hemp. And, if we didn't use pesticides, our erections would be 25% larger.

Yay! Something for everyone!!!!!

I suspect too many people getting a paycheck is a big part of why we need to keep it illegal.

I've heard about 70% of our crime fighting resourses is wasted..I mean spent on prohibition. That's a lot of jobs, prisons to be built, guards to hire, prosecutors, court reporters, police, etc. etc....

I've have also noticed that, at times, it seems that the ones who want others to be locked up for what they do to themselves often get a paycheck from it or have friends / family who get some bucks from prohibition.

And, as always, JMHO.
