I"ve taken Vicodin too. Makes you feel good. I would think the biggest crime for someone on Vicodin would be burglary, etc, to get money for more Vicodin. I think we need to wait until something comes out from an "Official" source before we assume he was a drug crazed person.
Who said he was "crazed"? Won't that be determined in a court of law from psychiatric evaluations? Are people not able to abuse drugs without being "crazed"; or is that just not you personal experience?
Cuxan, on the other thread I gave you dozens of links to medical studies from different sources and different countries, proving that marijuana can cause serious mental problems. The studies also proved that 10% of ALL mental illness in US is tied to majijuana use. That is a big number considering the fact that only a small percentage of people are regular pot users, yet they make up 10% of all mental cases.
In that case I suppose we are in agreement that controlled substanced need to remain controlled.
I regretably have to take the opposite position. I believe all drugs should be legalized to take the profit (and "cool") out of drugs. It's an ugly choice, but it's the only choice. Some foolish people will destroy themselves, just as some do on alcohol, but we will finaly end this horrible period in American history. It's the only way.
Fact= The pharmaceutical industry cannot profit from marijuana being legalized.
Additional fact= The pharmaceutical industry will lose money if marijuana is legalized.
Western medicine is horrific for preventive medicine and corrupt for overprescribing . It is a heartless and corrupt system that uhurts the naive. I've never taken prescription meds in my adult life. Most cures for common ailments can be found through natural means.
I have plenty of beefs with the pharmaceutical industry and I believe marijuana needs (not "should") to be legalized, but this post is asinine.
Western medicine is "horrific for preventive medicine"? When is last time you got malaria or typhus or smallpox or polio or cholera or bubonic plague? You can thank Western medicine because that is the most likely reason why you are still alive.
Who said he was "crazed"? Won't that be determined in a court of law from psychiatric evaluations? Are people not able to abuse drugs without being "crazed"; or is that just not you personal experience?
You don't think what Holmes did was crazy? You see a lot of these theater shootings out your way? I see you haven't given up on your personal attacks, either. Stay classy there, MO.
I have taken Vicodin for the pain related to various muscle pulls and joint sprains etc. I have never felt anything but the relief of the pain. I have been injected with Morphine for pain. All I felt was pain relief and the associated mild relaxation.
How do people get addicted to this stuff? How much do they have to take? Why bother?
