my brother and mom are the same way, they think weed is bad for you and kills brain cells and causes accidents, weed hasnt ever been proven to kill brain cells and alcohol related accidents outnumber weed related accidents 10,000 to 1 :cursing: :cursing: :cursing: :cursing:

[CrAzYpOtHeAd]

yeah, i don't think weed does kill brain cells. but remember, just because it HAS'NT been proven dos'nt mean its 100% no true.

Most of the people I have met in my life are ignorant when it comes to drugs. I personally love this line. "The best I've ever smoked is hydro. I was so fucked up." Yeah whatever guy. I respond with Hydroponically grown cannabis does not make it any more potent but just shortens the time in growing and produces larger yeilds. So then they look at me for a few seconds. "Then they scratch their ass then go you don't know shit man". So now I let people belive whatever they want to because you'll never change their minds. Their already programmed by Uncle Sam.

Everyone knows people like that. We're all at least slightly ignorant on the subject. Denying that would be.. well.. ignorant.

I strongly believe that drug addiction is never the drug's fault, but the user's. It has to do with the user's sense of responsibility, willpower, and genetics.

I'm sure Nullific can comment.

the fact that really annoys me is that they do it even though they think its killing there brain cells. If i knew in my mind that weed kills my brian cells when i smoke it i wouldn't do it at least not as often.

I did some coke last night and though the buzz had worn off I was laying in bed reviewing an array of drug legalization arguments in my mind. Maybe I am obsessed, but among the thoughts was that every single American for the past hundred years has been fed by their government propaganda on the subject until this present day.
Every citizen of the United States and the majority of the world wide population has been fed exaggerations, half-truths and down right lies about drugs and drug use. Many of them fail to see now how it is the laws and not the actual drugs that are leading to many of the negative consequences of drug use. In essence, everything is in chaos.
Then before my very consciousness a new truth unfolded and I now care less if a person thinks that drugs are 'bad'. If a person thinks drugs are bad, well that is an opinion to which all men are entitled to. It can be argued, even so that drugs are illegal and solid evidence on the health-oriented consequences of their use is limited.
What is fact and what matters most to me is that drug prohibition has failed. Proof of this lies most everywhere you look. Step into any highschool in America, ask around and you'll soon find the drugs you're looking for because the fact is that most drug dealers don't check ID and many end-user drug dealers are minors themselves.
Go to any major city and walk down any street where you'll see the little plastic baggies and syringes. Look at the statistics and you'll see how the purity of cocaine has increased while the price has declined, despite the billions of dollars the government spent spraying herbicides on crops of coca.
So the next time a person tells me that drugs are bad I will proclaim that is their opinion while the fact is that drug prohibition has failed. Perhaps if enough people begin to realize that drug prohibition is a failure while maintaining that drugs are 'bad', the route to legalization will be a quicker one. And perhaps upon legalization more people will realize that the drugs weren't bad at all and it was the law all along.

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.

Funny how that is put...yea when you die your brain cells do tend to die also. Anyways, its nice to say that durgs don't harm (which in some cases is ture and others its not) but you have to use soruces also if you wish to make a point or fact. Anyways, Acid is suppose to mess you up, but I don't know for sure. But I do know that some durgs do harm (if so kill) brain cells. My older brother will be proof enough for me. He got heavy into some stuff and he hasn't been the same since, even after he quit it. So there has to be some truth to drugs harm. I would love to say that its all bullshit and the government is out to get us but I don't see it that way (not all the time), but thats only cuz I use some drugs. I don't like the government but I do not think they are the ones to blame for the bad views and flase views on drugs. We learn about durgs in school and are told to stay away from them, even stuff like beer which is legal.

Even so, a cease in prohibition is unlikely to result in a cease of drug-addiction and ignorance of the subject at hand. The hole we've dug ourselves in is much too deep to be solved by such a trivial attempt at reformation. I use the word trivial, because in order to reach our much sought-after pipe dream of the majority's enlightenment, we would need to be in a position to distribute the facts, and have them received by individuals who are capable of doing so without bias. Unfortunately, our media, and even our textbooks, prove that we are not capable of making this happen. We have ignorance and idle minds to contend with, and we all know how powerful - and dangerous - those can be.

no matter what, there will always be people that think differently...no one is right, and no one is wrong...in their mind, were the ignorant ones...the problem is, people with our belief is far outnumbered by the others...so we are stepped on...they have to understand that just because we have different beliefs, whether we are right or wrong, we should be entitled to have these beliefs freely, without oppression...
