No, you're arguing for the continued banning of cannabis.
At the end of the day, non-smokers don't want to see smokers making fools of themselves in public places...
you watch too much TV luke, pure and utter zombie so you are.
Do you laugh at people who live in cities, or large towns come to think of it, for slowly killing themselves breathing in all that pollution?
How about those who drive? They're asking to end their lives in a mangled wreck under a lorry. Ha ha ha the fools!
sorry, i smoke to enjoy life...catch the otherside to reality, take in everything and have total respect for nature and love, you should try it sometime, oh wait, i'm just a thieving scumbag, thats right :rolleyes:
sorry, at some stage in your life you hit the wrong tangent at 1000 miles per hour and went way off course, i've tried to save you, it's too late, you know the facts about life but you don't care, ah well, better tried and failed than never tried at all to make another phrase convienent.
sorry i've seen things and felt things through smoking that no materialistic consumerising invention can ever touch, that no word can ever describe, i'd rather be me and smoke than be me and not smoke, sorry you're losing out, life's short, enjoy it while you can, if that means not smoking then fair does but you're are in no position to judge me and my actions.
But you'll always be a narrowmined fool!
i want to smoke dope, get a buzz and be a better person in general, regardless if i die at 90 or 60, oh shit, i'm just a lower class scum bag, aren't i, damn.
very true
could being the important word, i take care in my hygiene actually.
the only drug i failed to master ...
luke your life will be very simple ...you'll never have anything ever to worry about ...or do ...
nope she's saying you're a narrowminded fool because you're a narrowminded fool, simple as, next please
sometimes i envy it, reminds me of wordsworth for some weird reason, so naive but there's a comfort in it. still, it would be shite at the end of the day.
LOL
Both cocaine and amphetamines can be physically addictive if taken regularly enough as well as psychologically addictive.

I know a lot of places dispute it too, saying that it is just psychological, but I disagree from my own experience.
A lot of places will say that.
That is another problem when a drug is illegal, it makes testing and researching issues about those drugs very difficult, plus of course there are the ethical implications of researching addictions in humans in a controlled way. It just doesnt happen. Therefore much knowledge about it is going to be anecdotal, from testing on non humans, or from uncontrolled research - surveys etc. Not the most reliable.
I would say that most people dont get physically addicted to amphetamines, but a fair amount do. By physical addiction I mean having physical withdrawal symptoms when without the drug - not just craving it badly.
If you look at it from a logical point of view then she is simply breaking the law and should be punished.
There's no room for sentiment in logic I'm afraid.
I think the woman shouldn't have distributed it to her friends, simply kept it for herself. She'd be in less trouble if she had.
Yes, of course she should let her friends suffer, whilst she gets relief from something that helps her.
Its nice to see that you're fully indoctrinated into respect for the law, even when it is a complete ass......
If everyone had your mindset we'd be in a dictatorship.
:yuck:
Right...so just remind me here - what are these "good arguments" for prohibiting recreational cannabis use?
I haven't seen you make any.
As for comparing drink driving and smoking cannabis...you are joking, surely? When I smoke a joint, I put no-one else at risk of harm...are you really not able to grasp that concept? Smoking cannabis harms no-one but the smoker. I've already said, probably countless times, that providing you harm no-one else, you have a fundamental right to "do as thou wilt". Stop twisting points because you can't provide an answer.
Illegal for a reason? Do you know anything about the climate in which cannabis was originally prohibited? If you did, you'd understand cannabis was banned under ridiculously false pretexts (smoke a joint and you'll go insane, smoke a joint and you'll become a rapist), and under pressure from industry (hemp was seen as a threat).
And where have I mentioned "drugs"? I'm talking about cannabis. Nothing else.
What do you need to convince you? Divine intervention?
The situation is like this - people are going to smoke cannabis recreationally whether the government likes it or not. America has a higher % per population of cannabis smokers than Holland - now that's a pretty good indication that prohibition does nothing to reduce use.
So, prohibition doesn't result in reduced use. What it does result in, is the market being flooded with poisonous, foul products.
Legalise cannabis, the government gets a good revenue for taxation, people get a clean supply of cannabis...what's the problem?
Now, Kentish, please tell me - for about the fuck-knows-how-many-time - what is your counter argument?
Why are you talking about "drugs"? We're talking about cannabis, not crack or heroin...
Socio-economically linked drug use? You're talking crack & heroin. Yeah, improving social inequality would reduce use massively no doubt...but what's that got to do with cannabis?
You don't seem to grasp the issue here do you?
Drugs are a big political issue...involves the economy, crime, jails, personal liberties, medecine...you name it, drugs will have some connection.
Pity you can't contribute anything other than that which would be classed as moronic.
You need to open your eyes..."drugs are bad and should be banned coz i see scumbags taking them"...would be funny if it wasn't so sad
You sound like a fucking SS officer. Take a step back and look at yourself.
No room for sentiment in logic? Sounds like a quote straight from Mein Kampf. I presume you reckon the Nazi race laws gave the Third Reich's racial policies a fair basis then...
And if you want to look at it from a logic point of view, the law under which she is being prosecuted wouldn't exist.
have you even looked at the thread or did you just automatically quote me and reply to that because for the past 200 or so posts since that i and others have put forward why the law is stupid, but i supposse, pigs never did take much time and effort in their work.
how ya doing WW ...that job has changed the boy who used to come here two years ago ...i believe mostly for the better.
I really don't know how people can continue to hold such mindlessly obtuse beliefs these days :rolleyes: .
