'cos weed is far more different then the chemically produced, manipulated, synthesized drugs. it's the common stereotype man. people are reading these forums. we, potheads have to destroy the liiieees :rolleyes:

whatever, i believe weed's different... :cool:

I thought the whole point of the legalization thing was to not judge people by what they decide to put into their own bodies, and to talk about the effects of drugs in a rational, level-headed manner, rather than simply labeling whatever substances you don't like as "bad" and censoring discussion about them.

I saw leave it alone. If anybody wants to know about other drugs, it's best they can go to a secure place and ask questions, and hear about peoples personal experiences. The whole point of having the "other psychadelics" forums is to keep it seperate but still available, otherwise we'd just be censoring more free speach. There's a lot of dumb people who think that if you cover something up and punish those who talk about it, it'll make the problem go away, which anybody with a bit of intelligence knows just doesnt' work.

get those fuckin tweaks out of here, anything but weed,alcahol,, shrooms, and maybe LSD.

all these prescription threads about "vicodin" and stuff should be gone also.

yes!!! :D you're like a savior ozzy. i felt myself too alone in this "whatever" jungle. :D :D

come on, we have to understand.. this is what they want to see, so they'll just believe in their prejudicies easily.

this is called "misleading". it's not even fair...

I don't really see the point of stooping down to the level of sites like Freevibe, who censor anything that doesn't agree with their predetermined standards of which drugs are okay and which ones aren't. Like mrdevious said, people need a place where they can talk about these things, if for no other reason than to provide a source of knowledge about the effects of these drugs outside the framework of the government propaganda (they're not just spreading disinformation about weed you know). The only thing worse than being addicted to some of those hard drugs is being addicted to them and not being correctly informed about them.

this is a poll man. a question. there are choices. the main point is how you feel about it, this way.

i may easily say that, with the help of cannabis.com forums; an (already brainwashed) individual would easily think cannabis as a gateway drug, and after some reading the same individual will say cannabis is no different from the pharmaceuticals...

but this is not true!!!

i'm not talking about me. anyways i feel sorry for the chemical "brothers". but that's not the point.

i'd simply say; a searching individual (the one we'd appreciate) has a right to gether the truth. and the truth of cannabis is that :

mj is something different. the guys you hear everywhere are talking nonsense

All drugs are different. The point is to get past the mentality that substances can be evil in themselves, and to critically evaluate the effects of potentially harmful substances rather than lumping them all into one category of "bad drugs". The same principle holds whether you include cannabis in the bad drugs category or not. Anybody provided with truthful, non-biased information about drugs will quickly realize that cannabis is not nearly as dangerous as other substances can be. We don't need to determine for other people what drugs are good and what drugs aren't; everybody is capable of drawing their own conclusions, and those differing conclusions need to be tolerated if we want to respect freedom of expression. Why filter the available information based on our own opinions? Whose opinions on what drugs are okay should determine what gets censored?

come on, nothing's so big!! it's not yet possible to erase the prejudicies of people, by legalizing something. people will judge others for much smaller things. at least for a long time.

let us always be rational. when someone believes that weed is different, then the rational thing to do is saying it so.

and i'd also be happier, if everybody thinks about it this way too.

legalize the chemicals. i don't care. but the consequences will occur for sure.i'd frankly talk about that...

Regardless of whether or not the substances ever get legalized, there will be hordes of people using them. And most of those people will also be cannabis smokers. Better to let them talk about what they're doing and allow them to get feedback from the experienced people here, than force them to shut up about it and keep on taking their drug of choice in ignorance of what might have been helpful or even life-saving information.
