2. you're not really an idiot, that was just an idiotic statement made by you :)
3. i think i am really bored :(
lmao who voted none of the above
i cant see any more options lol
The government should stay the hell out of our lives. Yes... cannabis should be legal. I'd rather grow it in my house, than get it from an unknown source.
Legalized NO!
Decriminalized YES! Absolutely!! No Question to it.
I think part of the reason everyone smokes it is because its not legal. And it gives them a little buzz cause there doing something bad.
no way maybe if they relax the laws
I found what I currently have in my signature (80% of Americans support legalization of Medical Marijuana, from 12-04), recently, and compared it to this survey (2005, on) at a Cannabis website, and currently it's at 89% support legalization.
I think you are really stoned too... LMFAO.Quote:

You're gonna have to pick up a habit called "homicidal maniac".
And what do those who voted "none of the above" propose?
Why is Marijuana illegal in the first place? Hmmm.....I think what we need is a well know congressman or senator to grow a backbone. Im sure their are plenty of them who agree that weed should be legal, but are more concerned about getting re-elected. I bet John Kerry smokes pot, let's unite behind him and start the revolution!!!
I just rolled the fattest blunt, and I almost dont have the heart to smoke it cause its soo beautiful! I think i'll say a little prayer over it before i light it up in the hopes that John Kerry reads this thread and free's us from bondage.

i think people should jsut out right ignore what is going on with cannabis, be it the growing of, the smoking of, or the condeming of those who grow and smoke it.
nah, im all for legalization, i just picked it cuz it was there! :D
in any case, im going to move away to my uncle's friends' property and live off the land there and help them out and stuff... get the fuck away from humanity's society i've grown to hate so much.
No. I don't want a doctor who smoked the night before to be all weedtarded the next day when he's cutting open my chest.
You're giving no credit to anyone, Xylene. If he's smart enough to be a Doctor, I think he's smart enough to keep his job.
Eh, it was a bad example. While I wish it was legal so I could use it responcibly on my own, I feel too many people wouldn't and would ruin it for others.Quote:

That's when other drugs come into play. Marijuana and alcohol don't mix. Any drug that tampers with your heart, doesn't mix with marijuana.Quote:

I voted yes, but it might actaully be in our best interest to keep it illegal. It would become just like tobaco, they would spry it with insecticides and use dangurose chemicals in the fertilizers and all that crap. I believe that tobaco would be healthy or atleast not un-healthy, if it wasn't pumped full of chemicals and stuff.
What we need is Ralph Nader to be president! GO NADER! WOOT!
To my knowledge, one of the main reasons that they made the drinking age 21 when it was 18 in new york is that kids would drink and drive and fuck shit up...so they made it illegal till the age of 21. One of the problems with marijuana is that in studies, some found it to be hallucigenic and the government very well cant have people hallucinating and driving around... Plus, as far as I know, there is no easy way to determine if someone has been smoking so police would run into a huge issue of "better judgement", people would be in deep shit if they were thought to be driving under the influence of pot. Pure and simple, it would be difficult to regulate.Quote:

I agree pot should be legal, but they need to start small, we need to make baby steps, they should allow people to have one plant in your household and at most 3 grams when out in public...or something along those lines, and i don't think theyd be content to let it happen all at once nationwide, its going to be a gradual thing or else...to compare it to binge drinking, everyone would go apeshit once they could do it legally and a certain level of chaos would ensue.
what is the deal with denver and colorado and south carolina anyways?
ps, if we really all want this to happen, we should pull some civil rights activism and get it publicized, reeeeeallly publicized...like snoop-dog-is-hosting-a-tv-show-on-it publicized. who wants to march on washington, just name the date. :thumbsup:
oh no
I think grass should remain illegal but laws against it should not be enforced. I'm afraid of what would happen if we legalized it, we'd regulate it in a way that makes it shitty or expensive or hard to get or something like that.
But then again I tend to be pessimistic.
i think that cannabis should be legal because it is a benifit to mankind it has helped lots of people in good ways in life because cannibis is so goodQuote:

i crash more drunk then high...
Lol.
i vote yes, and they wouldn't spray it. i watched the history channel (yeah yeah, don't make fun of me) and they said its name "weed" is exactly what it is, a weed. it takes almost know effort to grow. but large harvesting is another story... cotton is easy to harvest but hard to grow, hemp is easy to grow but hard to harvest.
many thanks to our canadian friends who are making hemp clothing.
Whoever voted not to legalization is either a dealer, or a cop. Either way, fuck you for voting no.;)
OF COURSE IT SHOULDQuote:

Cannabis is proven to be less adictive than nictonine, and less harmful. There is no confirmed link as of yet between smoking cannabis and developing lung-cancer.
No one has ever died from smoking cannabis.
It costs the U.S. billions of dollars a year to keep nonviolent drug-offenders in prison. The overcrowding of prisons due to nonviolent drug-offenders causes the more serious, violent rapists and murderers to be released sooner, and made more eligible for parole.
If cannabis were legalized today, it could be taxed very heavily and a large government deficit would instantly become a large government surplus.
American tobacco companies will have a cannabis monopoly over the rest of the world.
There will be no more dangerous black markets for weed. Violent crimes related to the sale and/or trafficking of cannabis will be effectively zero.
The sale of tobacco is better controlled than the sale of cannabis. We can assume that the sale of cannabis would then, also be as controlled as the sale of tobacco. A drug dealer usually doesn't have a whole lot to lose. That's why they become drug dealers. When you legalize cannabis and let gas stations and supermarkets sell it, they are going to card hard and make sure only people of age are buying. Why? Because they have a LOT to lose!!
Legalization will bankrupt foreign cannabis farmers. Terrorist organizations that rely on drug sales will be incapacitated.
Nonviolent drug-related arrests are higher in number every year in the U.S. than ALL TYPES OF VIOLENT CRIMES COMBINED!! (e.g. assault, rape, murder, robbery, etc.)
Legalization would let law enforcement concentrate better on more haneous, dangerous crimes than arresting some 16 yearold that didn't know any better.
Laws are supposed to be in the interest of public safety. Cannabis is nore more a threat to public safety than alcohol.
That's a great read, duhrickjames, but what happens to us small time growers - medusers who prefer to grow our own for various reasons? Does it become like the home brew (beer) industry?Quote:

Well i`m 18 right now, but even if they could make a law about marijuana just like alchohol then i`ll vote for it... So if marijuana was to be alowd for 21 and over.. .then i`m cool with that...
And if your under the influence under age , you get same consequences as alchohol... no biggy...
it should be legalised cause when we are sittin back at home kicking it back and relaxing with a blunt we are not outside getting pissed making trouble
cheers
fuck yes

I started tokin when i was 10, and i have regretted it ever since. I did all my education, but to a poor standard.
LOL I had to post on this one. The answer was obvious but someone made a legalize poll anyway. rock on and vote yes
