Is there something you would like to add to the substance to the discussion.. If so I'm missing it
You said pot altered time and space. I was just saying it does no such thing. Is this a personal experience that it happened to you.

And please do not post that link you posted earlier about mj "changing the structure of the brain" as evidence. That study mentions nothing about killing cells, and it does not even say that it is mj that caused any changes at all.
Please demonstrate that the 400 toxic chemical in mj doesn't kill braincells.. This can't be eliminated by vaping..reduced but not eliminated..this cannot not be eliminated by eating it...
There isn't any free ride for anything.. Cells die all the time.. Mj use can accelerate this process.. To offer otherwise is to offer the fountain of youth...I want in on that investment opportunity

I have a clear unaltered consciousness all the time. I elect not to use any mind altering substances...any. I do not experience the phenomena you speak of. What you describe is classic pot use , bolstered I might add if you read any posts by honest pot users and on most any pot website out there

Do you experience what you speak of.. Does it affect your ability to be a " professional " if you are one.
If you are a user and you are honest I think the answer would be... Absolutely

I think if you go back and read the fifty pages of posts on here you will read from pot users how much more slowly they drive ... Space distortion... I think they will also tell you their ability to judge time is hampered. This is supported by science.. Don't be lazy please.. I can't spoon feed everything for you

According to the poll results, you are incorrect about that. I suppose all of us are wrong, and you are right? If so, you just called 80% of the voters on this poll dishonest...

I said no such thing.. That is what you are saying and your characterization... Flawed I might add.
People can be wrong and not be liars
Marijuana users actually do lie much of the time.. To themselves firstly..to others on many occasions

City data is hardly a place to get an accurate poll of a loaded question with an agenda

I could asked the question... Do you want a stoned professional working on your child. How would that poll come out...

Garbage in garbage out

Maybe you should let the pot smokers here be the educators for you...instead of the other way around. I mean they are the ones who have actually experienced it. You can read everything you want on this subject but unless you have actually smoked then you don't really know. It's fine to debate but please don't pretend to know how people act. And what exactly have I described. I was just responding to your post of your description of pot users lol

What do you know about what it takes to be a professional? You're a police officer, a blue-collar job.

All your blustering about people who don't realize their full potential because they smoke pot... what's your excuse?

the thread title says no such thing..


just because someone uses weed on a regular basis does not mean they go to work stoned!! do regular users of alcohol go to work drunk??
