You are giving him far too much credit, this has nothing to do with morals, or his church upbringing - it has everything to do with the tabloids and looking tough on crime.
:yes: It's a glorified publicity stunt.
It will be reffered to again and again in the future, especially at election time. We did this for the people, that for the people.... it's bollocks.
What part of the brain and what damage does it do?
When I was 17, I was reprimanded for possession of Cannabis and they said that it would probably be wiped when I turned 18. If it does get re-classified as a class B drug, they can't dig it up again and put in on my record as a more serious offence can they?
:no:
It seems to do damage to the seritonin receptors, these regulate mood and a whole hoast of other things. What this damage actually means though is harder to figure out, it could make depression more likely given low seritonin levels are linked to depression, or the other receptors may just learn to work harder, either way its a gamble.
It also seems to have some impact on the dopamine receptors too, these are vital for movement, desire and pleasure. Though these have been studied less, and they only seem to be impacted by long sessions in high temperatures.
If you are already over 18 then they shouldnt have a file to bring back up, your prints and everything should have been destroyed completely, if that is what they said would happen.
dont trustthe bastards on that!!! :mad:
Aye, I got the whole prints, DNA shite when I was 13 and they said they'd destroy the evidence then on the news there last year it was announced that they still had the details of children under 15 arrested in the past 10 years or some shit. Cunts.
i know a 17 year old that was an inpatient on a pysch ward from 'smoking too much weed' - in his words
you have to be an idiot to do drugs in the first place
Who said it had no effect?
So everyone that smokes the ocassional spliff, has a few beers at the weekend, or drinks a cup of coffee in the morning is an idiot? Oh ok.
oh, ok.
in regards to the first two, yes, they are, imo.
+ i wasn't speaking about anyone specifically, it was a general thing, because i know a lot of people do think it has no effect.
Why do you think no society ever has been intoxicant free? Its part of the human condition, idiots or not humans have been doing it for thousands of years and will continue to do it.
Also, why draw the line at coffee, its a drug after all, and a strongly addictive one too.
You have to be an idiot to make such a stupid and pointless remark in the first place.
you're entitled to your opinion.
don't expect me to get offended like you, though.
coffee is totally different imo.
+ idc. still only for idiots.
No its not....coffe users wake up in the morning irratated until they get there fix of caffine...its an addiction...and the fact that you call anyone an idiot for having a smoke of drinking alchol is just sheer ignorance and stupidity in itself....
MY opinion. obviously yours might differ.
no, not all coffee users are irritated until they get a cup of coffee.
it is my opinion, and think of it what you will, I don't care.
usually i don't care about people online, but i really do hate you :mad:
aha, hardly.
oh, my opinion doesn't agree with yours.
pity son, but it's too bad. ;[
stop caring so much?
Not when they're wrong, no.
Wait, you're actually saying people who drink beer are idiots? Oh lawdy.
The only difference is, coffee is socially accepted. It's still a drug, and some people do need it.
Stick things like "imo" at the end of your statements all you want, your opinion is still ill-informed and well, downright wrong.
sorry to inform you.
i think people who regularly drink are idiots, yes. so?
yes it is still a drug, but it is still DIFFERENT.
You're opinion that all drugs users are idiots is wrong, because there quite clearly are intelligent users. Fact.
You can have the opinion that drug use is stupid though, but then again it would be nice to see your reasoning.
Opinions backed up with some sort of evidence or argument generally carry far more weight, and won't result in people instantly dismissing you. You show very little indictation that you know what your talking about here, and havn't explained why you have the opinion you do.
i'm not asking anyone to agree with my opinion.
i'm simply stating it.
opinions still cannot be wrong.
...rofl
Who told you that bullshit? Guy 1's opinion is that the universe was created by the big bang, while guy 2's is that God created us in seven days around 12,000 years ago (yay Evangelical Christians!).
Now, opinion or not, they can't both be right; one of their opinions has to be wrong. Hell, maybe they both are.
EDIT: Honestly, "opinions can't be wrong" is the kind of carebear bullshit I've only heard spewed on these boards when people don't want to offend each other.
if one was known to be wrong, and there was proof, it would be a FACT not an opinion.
FACTS can be wrong, OPINIONS can't.
Thanks, come again.
