I agree, I think it should be legalized. It would create a new market and at the same time drain the money of the Afgan warlords (that fund terror organizations by growing it and smuggling it into the US.) In my experience it's non habit forming, I usually go 4-6 months between using it. Also I don't recall ever hearing of someone getting so high and causing car accidents. And I've never heard the excuse "Yeah I had sex with that ugly fat guy/girl because I got too high."

You smoke opium every 4-6 months?

The Afghan warlords are heroin suppliers, not pot.

In my experience, you have been brainwashed by the WOT/WOD FUD that was attempted after 9/11. Contrary to what those wonderful (DARE?) ads stated most of the drugs US Americans ingest come from America (Canada, US and Mexico included). Pot especially would be a loosing venture if it was smuggled overseas - have you ever seen a pound of pot? It's sizable because it's an herb (airy)- not worth the risk / storage needed to ship it. I'd bet you that every 'toke' you ever took in the US was from American weed (whether it was the British Columbian 'gold' or the nasty brown Mexican dirt weed).

Not all drugs support terror - and actually the only ones that were proven too are opiates and cocaine. Opiates (heroin, opium, etc) have supported terrorist groups in Mideast (i.e Taliban). Coke primarily funds the drug cartel terrorists - while not really a terror threat to us it does destroy many lives (esp. when made into Crack and such).

However that does make me question your intelligence: 1) You buy and a use a 'product' that you don't even know where it came from (think 'orifice for smuggling') 2) you've been using a 'product' that until now (when I corrected you) you thought WAS supporting terrorism !?!?

Perhaps you can explain your justification for engaging in an act that you believed directly supported terrorism?

And I'm not saying I support legalization either way it just bothers me when people think "Drug use = Terrorism supporter". However I do support some concepts of Darwinism. For that fact alone I think heroin & crack should be given away FREE!! - Help clean up the gene pool for those of us who know what not to do/smoke/shoot :)

Sorry for the lengthy rant - they are few and far between - but some posts set me off (esp. if I have time to kill)

I know of one case where weed intoxication was a factor.

Some of those Indica strains are very strong and should not be ingested prior to operating a vehicle, heavy equipment, chain saw, etc.

(or so I've been told)
