Hey guys. I've probably donated more money to charity in the last month than your entire family has made in their lives.

And I've smoked weed every day for the past 3 weeks. Not for medical reasons. Just for fun.

Also had sex while high. I know. Despicable. I did it several times.

Godless internet generation heathen, checking in to tell the most useless generation of the 20th century how useless they are.

Your values will be dead in twenty years. Thank "god."

Why is that despicable? Do you have a inferiority complex?

As for the question, I think the use of marijuana should be discouraged.

Anarchy-without rule. Gosh what a terrible thing. Do you need a ruler?

I dunno- we Gen-X'ers are strong contenders for the Most Useless Generation. We'll be around for a while trying to impose our stupidity on you... luckily we're smaller in number.

As for marijuana... why would I stand on it at all? That stuff is for smokin!

I'm all for pot. As long as it doesn't hurt others, "my body, my rules" applies. Legalize it in all forms.
In that case why not legalize everything? My body, my rules, right?

I think it should be legal for medical purposes but I think we need to research what compounds are effective and market the right ones for the right conditions. There are just too many compounds in MJ to market it as a medicinal drug. We have the ability to isolate the effective compounds and administer those.

Why not make fatty food illegal? Vastly more people die from heart disease than pot.

Why not make alcohol illegal? Vastly more people die from alcohol than pot.

There's no rational justification for pot being illegal.

Freedom loving conservatives support decriminalization of victimless "crimes" in general and pot in particular.

It went up. A lot.

Put the joint down and sober up!
Finn, I've debunked your lies in other threads.

And I dont know, overall in the US, in areas with a similar crime rate...people aren't stealing everything nailed down.
