Scraping pipes and retrieving stray buds from behind the dresser. Oh the humanity! Will the depravity ever end?
The same NIDA Monitoring the Future survey of 129 college students found that someone who smokes pot once daily may be functioning at a reduced intellectual level all of the time.
So if you are high every day, you aren't operating at peak efficiency? Who would have thought?
What a drama queen.
It has wasted untold billions and engendered a loss of respect for the law.
It is people are who not treated as adults by the nanny state that is much more of a problem than any possible effects of cannibals.
By the way there are a lot of very stupid people in the country who don't drink, smoke or have any vices..if there was only a way to fix stupid..
Just wait until 3-D porn gets everyone addicted, then there will be more in depth immersion channeling.
There have been several sci-fi films of people using either androids or “hosts” to occupy while their real bodies are cocooned at home.
America is “Escaping from Reality”. Why?
Because it sucks with inept leadership getting stronger every day with no hope of it being stopped.
America needs desperately a Revolution, we need heroes, patriotic heroes willing to risk all to take back our country.
She's now running an alternative sentencing program for drug offenders, and sees proof of her theory every day.
Smoking marijuana= the dumbing down of America
Actually, attending Public School has had a much greater dumbing down affect. We should outlaw Public Schools first.
When the non-pot smokers on this forum start giving me even a little trouble debating them I’ll consider switching back to booze. lol
Look what it has done for Jamaica . Good music but that’s about it .

Any discussion of Marijuana users always brings out the the users, who are happy with their crutch,
Yes alcohol can be a crutch too.
I dont need or use either. Just because something is legal doesnt mean it is mandatory.
Out of all of the problems that we face... yep... this is the MOST important. Sheeeeesh.

The worst things about marijuana is that it makes you have sex with older women, play the piano REALLY fast, and murder innocent virgins. At least according to the experts at this link. Personally I wouldn’t know of course.

Buckley Kicks Rangles ass...and whole heartedly disagrees with you...
In fact, they could purchase shares in the cartels and drug gangs. Say....this is an idea that merits some serious exploration...I'll get back to you later.
If it is used to relax a little after work, to heighten enjoyment of a music concert, etc, I don't see it as particularly harmful. But if it used to escape from reality, or to cope with reality, then I think you might have a problem.
