why do people say weed is a drug?

[notrightquite]

yes it is. pot replaces meat, and meat is considered required food because of amino acids found only in meat, tofu, and even more so, cannabis.


im sure it's factual that we could live on eating nothing but cannabis, and drinking only water, and breathing air.


oh, yes, and as far as im concerned, the only things that are drugs are the things you can induce a toxic overdose; which is, so far, everything BUT weed.

Yes ... as far as you are concerned. But you know, that's a subjective and personal definition. Not the english def.

exactly

whether its a harmful drug or not, its a drug. tylenol is a drug also. didnt you learn anything from 4th grade science class?

universalism is redundant, the english language is flawed. there are cherokee words that the english language cannot define or discribe.

it alters your mind and body, thus it is a drug

[Shelbay]

Its illegal because we live in a culture that fears people who exist outside of time. Sure, we send money to food shelves at Christmas, but we're afraid to look a homeless man in the eye. It really is as Jack Nicholson's character in Easy Rider describes it (a great scene from a movie that tells a lot of truth about pot). People who have been 'enlightened' by grass tend to take things with a grain of salt, not getting wound up about ultimately very frivolous things, like a douchebag you work with, traffic jams, bad weather, anything. Meanwhile everyone else is caught on a different wavelength, and they see this fragment, our fragment of society that is exempt from having to fuck with car payments and fashionable clothes and makeup and how to fit a new IKEA couch through the doorway...

That's my spiel

imo..your right..because I am more pessimistic without my plant. Now that I read your post I HAVE to get that movie...always heard about etc...but have never watched it.

the gov. isnt legalizing it(except alaska, which its legal) because they make more money off the streets....my uncle is a nj state trooper and he says every time they make a drug bust, the bring it in, arrest the guy and then put it back out on the streets to distribute so they can bust again.....read up in the legalize forum and there are many interesting facts on how pot is good for u and shit like that
