Too many people ignorant about drugs

[Hi my name is....]

yeah just wondering if anyone may have tried to bonsai it (the Kauri) its related to the pine and prob the Hosretail beefwood (haha soundz like a food ) and just a question if you bonsai a flowering shrub such as a protea Native south african plant grows to about 12 metres tall maybe taller and can live to 20-35 years (guess) will the flowers be small to or the original size

My experience has been that foliage/leaves can be reduced by pruning and pinching back but I don't think that works for flowers. I'm not really sure.
But I tend to lean towards evergreens/conifers since they are cool and easier for me to store in winter.

Well, I didn't say anything about morals. So you think I believe drugs are bad?

In fact, I agree with you that it's a disease. A disease similar to an STD in that.. well.. you play with fire and you get burned. An individual genetically predisposed to drug-addiction isn't going to get addicted unless he puts himself in that position. Willpower comes into play when making the decision to at least only use occasionally, the same as that willpower will prevent someone from raping someone else. My father was a tweaker, and I do consider myself to have an addictive personality, but I KNOW WHEN TO RESTRAIN MYSELF.

I know alllllllll about twelve step programs. My mother volunteered and ran an Alateen meeting for two years at my old high school. She was a sponsor for several people who attended Al-anon. I wouldn't present this as fact, but I read on these boards that the success rate for alcoholics quitting, in and out of AA, were the same.

Well that is certainly a well thought out opinion and I agree with about 99% of what you are saying. I just get irratated when people look down on drug addicts (not saying thats what you're doing, just seemed like it), as I think its kind of like looking down on someone for having cancer. Overcoming severe drug addiction is one of the hardest things someone can do, and although I respect a recovering drug addict more than anything else, I really think they deserved to be treated as sick people and not as people who have made a mistake.

Lateralus was a great album.

Drug addiction is a disease, not a moral choice. Wrong. Otherwise you'd be an addict before you even ingested the drug. I'm very, very tired of people suggesting otherwise. Groups like Alcoholics Anonymous have taken a step towards treating alcoholism as a neurological disease, and not a question of "morality" (and absurd idea). You're ultra absurd, you fucktard. Of course they are going to say that it's not their fault and that it is a disease, because the people who run AA are a bunch of pussies... and without telling them the truth... that just avoids alot of trouble but also makes it so that AA doesn't really help. Relevant studies show only genetic and psychological/neurological precursors. Statistics show alot of things... you want me to go get some Marijuana stats and post 'em here to see if you agree with any of them?

So it is not a question of "fault" at all.

Um... yes... YES it is. It's your fault for picking up the bottle. It's not like something triggers in your brain that makes you drink.

No one is looking down on the addicts because of their addiction... it's the addicts that spread lies about how this and this drug really ruined my life and blah blah blah. That is what annoys the rest of us. Done and done.

The other day me and these 2 kids were getting a dub and when the dealer comes up to the car. He tells us hes got acid and i ask him how much and shit he was like 15$ per hit so i was like fuck that. The my friend proceed to tell me that acod kills tons of brain cell and drips in to your spinal fluid and stays there. iNow i tell them that is bull shit but htey don't beileve me and one of the kids tells my sister.Today she tells me she found out and says that u can die really easily from it and all my brian cells will be dead. i tell her she is ignorant about drugs and ask her where she got that info of course there was no answer. I've also been agruing with these kids about how weed doesn't kill brain cells they don't believe me about that either. This really pisses me off sorry for the rant anybody else know people like this?
