Basically what I was going to say except for the very last part, which personally I don't completely agree with.

Also:
 Weed isnt as bad as MTV's "Above the Influence" Campaign and the government want you to think it is. It's more of a mentalily that you could possibly gain from doing weed. This mentality being "drugs are my only escape" or "I'm cool because I do drugs." If one is able to know the facts that they aren't the only escape and that it doesnt make you cool (nor a lesser person for that matter) then weed really cant ruin you.

Honestly, my experiences from getting high were quite fun and I would have never had that certain type of fun (and focus on so many different thoughts) any other way.

And if you know someone who is bound to the addictions of stronger, more serious drugs, don't turn your back on them in a dick-way and act like your better than the rest of the world.  give em some help for god sakes.

Hah... This thread is getting interesting...

Quite interesting.

I don't know.  Usually bickering brings the end when self righteousness sets in.

I was just wondering if I sounded self righteous there, because I never meant to.

Forum rules dictate not to quote the person if that persons post is above yours.

Aren't some of you tired of backseat moderating by now?

I was refering to my own post and common forum (not necessarily this one) rules.  High five little buddy.

or maybe it's more of etiquette.

I still think you guys should lay off with the Backseat Moderating. It's really redundant, and if a post bugs you, just report it.

Cannabis is actually worse than cigarettes, as it contains more toxic substances.

I'd like to see your source for this.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16232311?ordinalpos=10&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum

Inhaling any burnt carbon matter is bad. But your claim is completely without merit or legitimate support.

Ok. Cannabis can give you a more increased chance of developing schizophrenia from the very first drag from a roll up.

The main reason why it's not legalised everywhere though is simply because it's so impossible to contain the illegal distribution of it. There's only a few places in the world where its either legal now or it's a class C drug.
