So it would be more like drinking, then. If you commit certain crimes under the influence, it would be a more severe charge against you..

That's what I always thought would happen with the "decriminalization movement" itself. I agree with your stance completely.

it is easier for underage to get marijuana than to get a normal cig or other alcoholic drink(lets not include beer since you can just open your fridge and get one of your dads heh)

i dont smoke weed, but its much easier for me and my friends to get alcohol. my friend has his cousin, or his cousins friend pick it up for us just about whenever we want, that is as long as we pay them a little extra (maybe like $2).

Frequent inhalation of cannabis smoke over a period of years can lead to bronchitis and other respiratory disorders, cancer of the lung and other parts of the digestive tract. Very high doses can also cause coma in young people, not to mention it may also exacerbate existing mental health problems.

I pity those of you who say that it's a harmless drug.

Alcohol can be addictive unlike the mentioned drug, and yes, it usually has more harmful effects if you consume it a lot, but on the other hand, small controlled consumptions of alcohol are safer than small consumptions of "weed".

A lot of things are legal in Amsterdam and it has the lowest percentage of drug addicts in Europe... coincidence? I think not. If things are legal, there's less urge to use them just to rebel which some people do.

well it isnt harmful to us, makes us all mellowed out, thats exactlly the problem... the government doesnt want to legalize it because if they did then their would be a bunch of lazy asses everywhere all mellowed out with their iq dropped to 50

I know a lot of smart people who smoke pot and get better grades than I do... I'm sure it's not proven that it lowers your IQ or really has any long term effects at all.

This is the fact that most people use cigarette to inhale cannabis.
Oh btw, do you know that some asthma trouble are cured with canabis sativae as medecine ? true !

Cafein cause the same trouble in very high doses ;)


Cannabis is use as a medecine in certain phsychatric treatment.
For a non 'exacerbate EXISTING mental health problem', there no way to worry about.

I pity those who say that chocolat is a harmless drug ;)


100% agree.
just one thing, Alcohol is addictive, ok, but cannabis has a certain psychological dependence. 'Certain', because it may vary from one subject to the other.

50% agree with you. It's not safer, it's just as harmfull.(didn't wanted to say that's it is the opposite.... ;) )
BTW, mixing alcohol and 'weed' is not advised.

I seen this on the tv last night a news report about the situation lol I could if I wanted too just go grab a Nug out of my dads marijuna stash if I wanted too to...


It's probably due to the people you hang out with around here we have like 2-5 connections (Ganja dealers) depending on local police activity

and we have this local gas station in check we tell the guy to give us this that and this (including alcohol, cigaretts) and he just give it to us no questions asked (of course it did take a little Debating :grin: first)

I have smoked marijuana and tried Red devils and Dramamhine but I quit all that stuff I think it is time to seek out a better life style plus I did some crazy shit while fucked up that I regret....

tobacco is direct cause of 11 diferent cancers, also is related to many cardiopathies and minor problems in ur nervous system and it's far away more addictive.
Alcohol affects directly to many organs like liver,kidneys & such also have direct affect to nervous system, mental health and more shit like that

All of em, marihuana, tobacco, and alcohol are toxins so none of em is risk-free... Just that evaluating the risks i dun see why weed is not depenalized, (I don't think it shall be legalized cuz what username#1 said was 100% correct, people'd go into more dangerous drugs)

I guess so, I mean, I don't know how many provinces Canada has. Or how many french people there are. But.. hell. America is just more important. I think there's a law about that. Enforced by the UN. Or something. We have the UN. You have.. Eskimos. We have Eskimo pie. We are, therefor, better.

everything is risky.... taking a shower is risky, turning on your monitor is risky, shit even turning your head is risky =p

That's why I figure "Less movement = Safer."

Not smoked, but yes, I've heard from an asthmatic friend that he felt like if his bronquios opened wider with marijuana

as any other excitant substance it causes tachycardy



I didn't knew this. Gotta say i tough it was contraindicated on most people under psychiatric treatment


ya, as a substitute of sex it's very addictive :p




Everything can have certain psychological dependence if ur a compulsive being, just that, as marihuana is a drug people recognice that dependence...I'm sure there are plenty of people with a psychological dependence of cookies

I know, that's why i smoke 2 lucky strike boxes a day, drink beer everyday, whisky often and rhum with coke every weekend and...I smoked weed...
In one way or another u'll die so...

yes , medicine is sometimes stange.
Like the treatment which is given to hyper-active children : amphetamine !

yes "pure Marijuana" is safe, it is considered as harmful as your daily cofee(witch is nothing). I would still be smoking "marijuana" if it was "pure" but nowadays i can only find "cocopuffs" and other breeds (cocopuffs=cocain mixed with marijuana) other breeds may include special K or even some sprayed chemical's on it such as window cleaner soultions. This is why "marijuana is harmful" because id have to say 75% of it has something in it that is not part of it's original formula.
If the government did legalize mariguana that would mean it would be grown by them thus making the weed 100% clean safe and harmless, so really the government isnt thinking in 2 ways(if they were to legalize it, and what it is like now)
