Legalizing Marijuana

[Warsaw]

Squid as much as I hate your point on driving under the influence you're right. I'm on the fence when it comes to driving under the influence of marijuana. Some people do fine, but you're still high. I smoke marijuana all the time, but even I'm not going to say "It doesn't have side effects." I don't think they are as bad as drinking or alchohol. And besides it's my body, my pleasure, my pain. No one has the right to tell me what I can, and can't do... unless it's supporting gangsters. Which I really try not to. I want it legal all ready. I was going to go somewhere with this post... oh yeah. I think pot should be legal but with condition like smoking. Some public places you couldn't smoke. Maybe you can't smoke weed while driving.. or just make smoking anything while driving illegal. That would work. :P

There really is a lot of stuff I could say, but I'm just not really in the mood to talk about weed. I rather smoke it right now. :P

"Physically it's not (unless you're considering the munchies). But emotionally it could have long term effects. And there's no denying the drastic effects it has on one's motivation.

I'm not condoning its use, and in fact would LOVE to see it legalized. Just speaking from experience here"

Drastic emotions? Maybe on your first use it makes you laugh like crazy, but that is it. Well maybe if you smoke enough... but it doesn't make you depressed. I'm a depressed person, but weed never causes it. Weed is the last thing that makes me sad. If I'm sad I'm going to be sad, if I'm mad I'll be mad. Weed isn't causing it. I'd like to smoke weed to cure my depression, but I don't think my doctor would let me.

if your getting emotionally altering effects from it your weed is laced with somthing extra I am sorry to say.

Squidward, you present all the logical arguments for legalization, yet you fail to take a position?

That is scary dude. How can someone not like cheese? I think you need to smoke some pot.

Well I mean, I'll eat melted cheese on pizza or in lasagna. But a slice or chunk of cheese is just revolting.

Oh. My bad. Haha. I can see how you hate cheese like that. I could go on about cheese but I don't want to get this thread all... cheesy?

That depends on what is "legalization". If it only means you don't go to jail if police finds a mj cigar in your pocket, i think it's fine.

I wouldn't want people high on the streets, however, nor companies making this stuff.

Tobacco companies are rich enough by killing people with tobacco already. Hell, i wonder what % of the crap inside cigars is really tobacco, they smell like burning chemical waste, or something like that.

Squidward, you don't have to be on anyone's side and lobby one or the other but you should be able to form an opinion after hearing logical arguments for both instead of /yawn let's not think about it.

Its fairly obvious I've thought about it and picked the opinion of "it doesn't matter which side wins."

I'm very against the use of drugs including marijuana and smoking because of their negative effects on peoples lives and their health. I don't drink either, there are many ways to enjoy life without those things. I think marijuana should stay illegal and all the kids that think it's cool or say "it doesn't have the bad side effects like they tell you" really frustrate me.

I also enjoy working out so I like to keep my body healthy, not because I want to live longer or look good but because I enjoy it, it increases performance and makes me feel better. Especially since I am recovering from a illness.
