Marijuana

---

your 100% right, but have you ever seen teh kids that run teh fields in columbia? they dont do coccaine, but they chew thoe fucking cocoa leaves, teeth rotted out, hyper and pissed and alot of them all of 11 to 14 years old with a short life expectancy.Cokes bad shit no matter what form its in, its just concentrated and worse in that nice powdered clean looking form thats made its way into the streets of every city. Some plants can kill you to eat them, natures full of mean fucking nasty poisons, cokke is one of those no matter what form its in. too many studies have shown weed however to not be one of those.

You would think people could learn from echothers mistakesOh well.. Some people learn by reading, some learn by observation.. and others have to piss on the electric fence themself.

and end up having it transfer through your skin and send you frying through world war two lectures? Is that all? I would imagine a 1/4 sheet would fuck you up for at least a week> the whole trade is a violent paranoid fucking movementI see what you're saying, but if I ever decided to sell, it wouldn't be like that for me. The mistake a lot of people make is that they always wanna get more and all that, or better shit. If I did sell I would stick with one guy only (who can get it to me whenever I need it) and sell to just a few people, enough to make a little bit of money. I wouldn't get greedy because that's how you get caught.And I agree with pretty much everything else in your long ass post

Weed and heroin will never be legal because of La Eme, AKA MM, AKA 13...Mexican Mafia. Ruthless individuals who would have a lot to lose if drugs became legal.

So your saying the government keeps weed illegal so the mafia has something to do?

They eventually go away & soon you'll have a great feeling of acheivement. Honestly I am soo greatful I stopped before I really started. I havent done any smoking or drinking in the past 3 years (till my death) & I can honestly say I feel better now then I ever have before.

They eventually go awayI'm sorry, but that's not necessarily true.

gang banging retards do nto run the goverment, well OK they do, but its old white crusty uptight bastards that make up that gang. the fact so many gangs and so many dealers have so much to lose is just one mroe reason to make it legal. I never said that heroin should be legal, fuck the white horse, thats one thing that should never even thought of being made legal.Weed on the other hand should of never been made illegal.

The amount of acid contributes to the trip, but not to the length of said trip.You can guess that if you do one hit or 20 that your going to peak in about 6 to 7 hours and your gonna be frying for about 13 hours total.Acid is bad shit, I did my share and yours and a few other peoples shares, stay the fuck away from acid, I speak from experience on that shit.The first time i dropped 2 hits after I started dealing and using all the time I started with 1 on day one and because you cant fry 2 days in a row, I doubled the dose daily so that I could get off again. 1,2,4,8,16... does nt tkae long to get up to dropping a quarter sheet just to get teh esame buzz you were off of a single hit.While I will speak out for legalization of weed, Id never speak out for acid, coke,pcp,or even shrooms. The only one you can actually say SHOULD be legal is weed, it has noone of the effects of the others, and none of the major risks associated with them either. outside of meth there isnt anything I didnt do atleast once in my younger dumber days and none of its anything I would reccommend anyone ever try out after me.Im an active participant in the attempted legalization of marijuanna, and an active opposition to the rest of the shit.

Acid is bad shit, I did my share and yours and a few other peoples shares, stay the fuck away from acid, I speak from experience on that shit.Just for the record: I've done it twice. First time I took only one hit before I went home one night (my dad was the only one home, asleep). It was pretty crazy, but not as crazy as I'd expected it to be (all these stories about people seeing shit? I didn't see shit)2nd tmie I took 3 hits at once... but they had been soaked in alcohol about a week before. Was a mild trip, nothing serious (even less than 1st time).> While I will speak out for legalization of weed, Id never speak out for acid, coke,pcp,or even shroomsI agree 100%. Weed is the only drug that should be legal because there's absolutley no reason for it not to be illegal.On another note, I watched this video last night on the history of Marijuana. It said that in the days of Jimmy Carter they were working on completely de-criminalizing marijuana, but then one of Carter's aides (some important guy) got caught up in rumors of him diong coke, so the whole thing got dropped?I'm going to look this up to see what else I can find on it, but it's crazy that we were so close to having it legalized way back then.

I dont knwo about carter leading its decriminalization but he did say that penalties for it shuoldnt be harder than any damage it does itself.the exact quote followsin the article I found and copy and pasted here.I didnt find it at its original source so I can t give credit where tis due but kept the authors name on it.By Roshan BlissPublication Date: 04/20/07President Jimmy Carter once told Congress that "penalties against drug use should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself. Nowhere is this clearer than in the laws against the possession of marijuana in private for personal use."That was in 1976. Today, despite the efforts of Carter and many others like him, laws prohibiting marijuana continue to carry penalties and consequences far more damaging than an individual's actual use of marijuana. Not only does marijuana prohibition harm the individual, but it is taking a grave toll on American society as well. The damage done by marijuana prohibition far outweighs the good it is doing, and for this reason marijuana should be decriminalized. To understand why marijuana should be decriminalized, we must first understand why it was made illegal. Early in the 1900s, Mexico's political conflicts sparked a surge of Mexican immigrants into America's southwest region. Although marijuana already existed in various forms in the U.S., the new immigrants are credited with being the first segment of the population known for marijuana use. The practice also became popular in African American culture around the same time. The popularity of marijuana among minorities made racism a powerful tool for the opponents of marijuana. Racist politicians used hate to push anti-marijuana legislation through. One Texas senator claimed that "all Mexicans are crazy and this stuff is what makes them crazy." A 1934 newspaper complained that "marijuana influences Negroes to look at white people in the eye, step on white men's shadows and look at white women twice." Media sensationalism put forward blatant lies and misrepresentations of marijuana that misinformed the public and stigmatized the harmless herb. The San Francisco Examiner went so far as to claim that "three-fourths of the crimes of violence today are committed by (marijuana users)." As a result of the pandemonium worked up by politicians and biased media about the marijuana "epidemic," marijuana was made illegal at the federal level in 1937.Previous prohibition laws were reinforced in the '90s by the new "War on Drugs" ﾐ a campaign aimed at reducing the demand for and the supply of illegal drugs. But the war has failed on its own terms. Despite its legal status, 83 million Americans admit to having used marijuana. Punishing smokers for their use has not decreased demand for marijuana, it has only increased arrests of otherwise law-abiding citizens. In 2005, marijuana arrests reached 786,000, of which fully 88 percent were simply for possession ﾐ a completely non-violent crime.This rise in arrests adds to the already heavy workload of the justice system. According to a study by BBS News, at least 135,488 people were being incarcerated for felony marijuana charges in 2002, not including another 20,000 being held while they awaited trial. With overcrowding already being a serious problem for the U.S. prison system, the influx of these harmless offenders is making it harder to put and keep real criminals in prison. But overcrowding is not the only problem. It cost $22,174 a year to house a federal inmate and $16,600 a year to house a state inmate in 2002. By the end of 2002, American taxpayers spent $1.8 billion to imprison marijuana offenders for that year alone. This does not include costs associated with the new inmates from the next year, juvenile incarcerations, police salaries and equipment, legal investigations or lost economic productivity of the imprisoned. In fact, a Harvard economics study, endorsed by over 500 economists, concluded that the U.S. stands to save up to $13.9 billion every year by ending marijuana prohibition. Imagine how many under-funded social programs that could be revitalized by that kind of money. In light of the futility and harmfulness of marijuana prohibition, decriminalization's benefits are hard to ignore.Space does not permit a discussion all of prohibition's injustices (the racial disparities of arrest rates, the unfair denial of education to marijuana offenders and the personal costs victims of marijuana arrests and their families, to name a few). Still, it is plain to marijuana supporters - and hopefully now to you, as well - that not only is prohibition not working, it is causing our country and its citizens untold damages for almost no gain whatsoever. Marijuana prohibition is a policy founded on hate, ignorance and distortion that is doing Americans no good. The rational and responsible response to these glaring inadequacies in our county's policies is change - change that will stop injuring innocent people, burdening our justice system and wasting valuable resources. It's time to finally take the hint that Jimmy Carter dropped more than 30 years ago.

I didn't read all that, but I did look up what I wanted to, and found these interesting articles:http://www.allacademic.com/meta/p22278_index.htmlAnd this one's rather long, but it's still a good read:http://www.druglibrary.org/special/anderson/highinamerica.htmAnd the guy accused of using Cocaine is Peter Bourne, just for info

All this makes me wonder:WHY THE FUCK IS IT STILL ILLEGAL? Damn.

why? because not enough things like this have been shown to people still young enough to use thier dicks.

Hotness on so many different levels, that is. Those are actually real buds, that's crazy.

Well, I tried to be in time for 4:20, but it's now 4:25, which is still in the 20's, so it kinda still counts.

I'm off to get high.

you can do ti two ways that I know from experience work.increase to significant levels vit c intake, and or double the dose.since I had plenty of acid, I jsut doubled the dose. is a bad trip running down the freeway in a suped up muscle car with smurfs running around that your trying to run over? or is that a good trip? how about a 2 hour conversation in the street with jesus. it consited of I dont belive in you, go away, its the acid and him saying yes Im real look at me! All I fucking did was walk by a church on my way to where i was going and wasted 2 hours of my fucking life talking to figments. is that a bad trip?How about dropping 2 hits on halloween at a party in the canyons and waking up naked, long gone from the camp, and with a knot on your head where yuo knocked yourself out running naked through the woods from shadow monsters?Honestly? I dont recall ever having a good fucking trip, and wonder why I did it time and time again.

I was a functionaL Tripper and was able to work on it (graveyard stocking at Target doesn't require a lot of thought). I had one bad trip my whole life, and even though I tripped after that to make sure I wasn't clinically insane (I know, weird logic), it was the beginning of the end for my LSDaze. I thought aliens were trying to communicate to me through my friend Brad. He was on it too but did a single dose of GoldenArches where as I was on 5 that night. He did all he could trying to reason with me, but I wasn't having it. Too much strychnine.
