Some people are beyond reason. Maybe he had a bad childhood. Or maybe he was spoilt so everytime he got something wrong they were too scared to correct him.

How can you possibly call someone childish when you call a person names and throw empty insults at them for calmly trying to argue their own opinions? He did not ask to be deleted from the forum becuase he couldnt accept that you were providing evidence suggesting what he was saying was wrong, he left becuase while he was trying to present his argument in a debatable fashion you turned around and went on a tirade merely spouting off your stubborn opinions and in no way considering what he actually had to say.

Alot of what you mentioned I completely agree with, but the responses you gave to his argument didnt actually reflect with what was being said and seemed to instead suggest that your prisde isnt allowing you to consider that maybe what you have come to beleive may be incorrect to some degree. I felt Itchys overall message was one that completely supported the use of cannabis while at the same time incorperating the message that like any other drug it should be used in moderation. Although I dont beleive cannabis to be physically harmful to the body, when someone smokes anything they are inhaling a burning substance, bottom line something which isnt good for you.

As Itchy said, it is good to openly debate about something we are all so passionate about, and I am a firm beleiver that open discussion is a vaulable learning tool. Although I am DEFINATELY not one to "flip-flop" my opinions, I always try to keep an open mind to what is being said and never include my feelings in a discussion as what good are they when they stand toe to toe with fact. I certainly never call someone names or make offhand comments about someone whom I have never met simply because they have an unwillingness to drop their opinions and instantly accept my own. I respect you LIP becuase I know your heart is in the right place and you have proven that for the most part you know what you are talking about and have valuable things to say, but this place is for sharing opinions, so try to respect other's especially if they respect yours.

Lets stop this nonsense and burn one down, I think everyone can agree that we all share a love of the herb. :jointsmile:

The thing is, he didnt respect my opinions. He was trying to get me to cut down smoking. I dont need to. He was trying to force me to belive his opinion, that's why i got so pissed off.

I didnt like him because alot of what he said was opinion and fiction.

But he's gone now, so it's over.

No I havent moderator too slow.

I need to make a few things clear. I will ignore the other posts as sticks and stones etc as i have a mature and open attiude. It is upto you and your followers on how you take it.

1. You said that you exhale after 3 seconds therefore are immune to any harmful substances that MAY be in cannabis smoke. This is not possible as we do not exhale 100% of what we inhale in one breath, it would take aprox 3-4 breaths before all of the smoke was exhaled and even then there would be residual particals of smoke left behind in your lungs 3 seconds would be up by then.

2. Yes you do smoke too much cannabis but it is not for me to stop you i just said cutting down was a good thing. This applys to anyone consuming large amounts of cannabis. Look at it this way if it was legalized and everyone started smoking 7grams+ a day then we would all be fucked and they would make it illegal again in no time.

3. You do have a tolerance to cannabis this is a fact not fiction and you cannot dispute it.

4. Children should not be introduced or allowed to smoke cannabis whatsoever under the age of 16 but in my opinion it should be 18 like alcohol.

I know you might be right 90% of the time but you are human after all and you cannot change the laws of physics and biology hence my outburst at the tolerance and 3 seconds statement as they are totally inaccurate and misleading.

If we want cannabis to be legal we need to be open minded about the pros and cons, as it will never be legalized if we have people like you at one end of the debate and people with the same opposite view and attiude at other end. There needs to be a mutual understanding and respect for others views opinions. I look at things from both sides yes it should be legal but I think it should be strictly controlled how this would be implemented is another debate altogether.

Free the weed Free your mind first!

Are you still here? So you lied? Your not leaving? Oh great, that's my tuesday gone to shit.

If you exhale the hit after 3 seconds you expell almost all the "bad" things, but abosrb all the phycoactive chemicals. I will also point out that these "bad" things in the smoke have NOT been proven to cause any form of cancer. EVER. Cannabis has never given anyone cancer, nor has it EVER killed anyone. So why do you seem to think it will now? It wont, face it. In reality cannabis is extremely safe. EXTREMELY.

I do not smoke too much cannabis. This is what makes me think your a complete moron. What IS too much cannabis? If someone smokes it medicinally you cant say they smoke too much. I smoke it when i feel pain. Therefore i cannot be smoking too much, i smoke when i need it.
10 grams of cannabis a day is nothing compared to what i would like to be smoking. Theres alot of people on these boards thats moke large amounts and you've just insulted all of them.

As far as im concerned, i DO NOT have a tolerance. Not like some people. I've heard of people having to smoke an 1/8 just to get high... and sometimes more. I dont. 1 joint will get me as high now as it did 4 years ago, albeit not for so long, so in some ways yes, i do have a tolerance, but nothing like what other people have.

By the time children are 16 they can make their minds up, they are mature enough. Maybe you wasnt mature enough when you were 16, maybe your just a late developer. Teenagers will smoke and drink NO MATTER what. Having a legal age is a waste of time because it WILL NOT be abided by, but IF there HAD to be one i'd say 16, although it'd probably be 18.

Smoking large amounts would not make it illegal again, all it'd do is get people very stoned.

You say things and then do the opposit. You said you'd leave, so do one.

I dont want to hear the shit that your spouting off about, it's boring and alot of it is bull.

I dont think you really know the true facts about cannabis, either that or you dont want to accept them.

hey man... shutup about that...

all he was tryin to say, is that he doesnt hold in smoke... therefore it is alot less damaging to his health.. stop trying to be a brainbox...

oh yeh... i smoke alot of weed too.. and theres nothin wrong with smokin 7grams a day.. its better than a crate of beers a day...

plus, i started smoking weed when i was like 11-12.. and im perfectly fine.. smoking at a younger age isnt half as bad as you seem to think it is... and like lip, i would much rather my child smoked weed than drunk alchohol...

you say you would not let your child smoke weed until they are 18... haha thats funny.. whether you let them or not, they are gonna drink, or smoke before they are 18... and theres fuck all anyone can do about it.. which is why i will tell my child not to drink, and to smoke weed instead...

if i was as worried about the effects cannabis has on my health as bad as you are.. i would quit... i mean.. you sound like FRANK...

[itchy]

Are you still here? So you lied? Your not leaving? Oh great, that's my tuesday gone to shit.

You shouldnt let things get to you like that, I cannot believe that your day is fucked by a so called moron, idiot, acock, only child syndrome, spoilt and dont deserve to live! person with different views and opinions!

So why do you seem to think it will now? It wont, face it. In reality cannabis is extremely safe. EXTREMELY.

I never said it has killed anyone why do you keep saying that? There are dangerous chemicals in cannabis smoke it has been proven Its the amount and what harm they do in the long run that has not been proven.

How much is too much then?

As far as im concerned, i DO NOT have a tolerance. Not like some people. I've heard of people having to smoke an 1/8 just to get high... and sometimes more. I dont. 1 joint will get me as high now as it did 4 years ago, albeit not for so long, so in some ways yes, i do have a tolerance, but nothing like what other people have.

You have contradicted yourself and anyway how would you know if you been smoking it for that long try stopping for a week then come back and tell me about tolerance.

By the time children are 16 they can make their minds up, they are mature enough. Maybe you wasnt mature enough when you were 16, maybe your just a late developer. Teenagers will smoke and drink NO MATTER what. Having a legal age is a waste of time because it WILL NOT be abided by, but IF there HAD to be one i'd say 16, although it'd probably be 18.

I know children will do it anyway behind there parents backs like everything else but it dont make it right or allow it to be promoted to the young.

Smoking large amounts would not make it illegal again, all it'd do is get people very stoned.

And fuck all would get done in life.

You say things and then do the opposit. You said you'd leave, so do one.

I am trying my hardest not to lower myself to your standards and i would of if the moderator had cancelled my account!

I dont want to hear the shit that your spouting off about, it's boring and alot of it is bull.

Its called a debate.

I dont think you really know the true facts about cannabis, either that or you dont want to accept them.

You dont even know me just because i questioned your opinions and statements you dont like it. I am not a sheep and i dont believe everything people tell me i question or educate myself on things i am not sure of, i think its called intelligence but you would know alot about that wouldnt you!

[itchy]

Two of you now some people cannot think alone DRONE! You sleeping with Lip or something!

[LIP]

Reading what you post gives me a headache.

I never said it has killed anyone why do you keep saying that? There are dangerous chemicals in cannabis smoke it has been proven Its the amount and what harm they do in the long run that has not been proven.

Actually, when you concider cannabis is one of the most researched substances on the earth, it has been proven long term. On of the reports says "In a study of over 64000 people, heavy cannabis use over a LONG period of time does not increase the risk of any cancer."

How much is too much then?

That's what im trying to get you to see, there isnt too much.

You have contradicted yourself and anyway how would you know if you been smoking it for that long try stopping for a week then come back and tell me about tolerance.

I wouldnt stop for a week, because i wouldnt be able to walk, i would have a splitting headache and i wouldnt be able drive, rendering me useless for work.

I know children will do it anyway behind there parents backs like everything else but it dont make it right or allow it to be promoted to the young.

The point is, they'll do it. It doesnt matter if you FORBID them, they'll do it. The best thing we can do is educate them on it. Then it's their choice, knowing what it does.


And fuck all would get done in life.

That's not true though is it? No, its not. Not everyone would smoke it, and not everyone would smoke that much. I work long and hard, and i smoke all day while i work. It doesnt effect the work i do, how much work i do or when and how i do it. That statement is ignorant.

I am trying my hardest not to lower myself to your standards and i would of if the moderator had cancelled my account!

That's no excuce, your not wanted here. Just dont come back. Is it that hard? MOD's dont cancel accounts for anyone. Including people like you. Ask them to ban you.

Its called a debate.

No, your telling me i smoke too much. Your telling me theres harmful chemicals in the smoke. Your telling me i shouldnt allow my children to do it.

You dont even know me just because i questioned your opinions and statements you dont like it. I am not a sheep and i dont believe everything people tell me i question or educate myself on things i am not sure of, i think its called intelligence but you would know alot about that wouldnt you!

Your not a sheep? Yeah... Ok then!

Absolutly amazing.

[LIP]

Two of you now some people cannot think alone DRONE! You sleeping with Lip or something!

Thankyou for proving my point. With comments like that your a child. Either that or you are VERY immature. Because thats the kind of thing i expect to read from children, little kids who say silly things in the playground.

[itchy]

That study if you take it in properly measured joints consumed per year 365x joints per day of the 64000 people only 3% 1920 people smoking 60+ per year your smoking 60+ per week!! or 3120 joints per year Let them study that with 2000 people and then i might start to accept its totally harmless as you say! Cannabis is not the most researched substance on the earth! Another one of them untrue statments and i will tell you why, it is illegal and to do clinical studies on cannabis you need to obtain a licence from the home office. Only 22 licences had been issued in 1997 in the past 24 years!! Do some reasearch! Tabacco is more researched and its only in the past 15-20years they have woke people up to the dangers.

You wouldnt stop for a week because as you would not be able to walk and goto work etc If you are that incapcitated you should not be working!

Educate children i agree but not to tell them its ok to start smoking it as the only real way you can be sure its safe is not to smoke it at all. And in my life my children are my No1 prority and i would rather them not smoke it just in case we could be wrong. They were wrong about tabacco better safe than sorry i say.

Smoking alot of cannabis CAN make you lazy and lethargic everyone is different some people like yourself go about the day with no problems and others just sit on there arse all day.

Yes i know what i said about you sleeping with abattior was childish but you two dont seem to get my point of view! let me spell it out for you

I DO WANT CANNABIS LEGALIZED
I DO SMOKE IT MYSELF
I AM NOT 100% CERTAIN IT IS SAFE THEREFORE I DONT WANT MY CHILDREN SMOKING IT
TOO MUCH OF ANYTHING IS BAD FOR YOU

How hard can that be to understand!
