Not only does it bring our general population's intelligence down when they hit the teen years BUT contrary to what you hear, Marijuana CAN lead to other, harder drugs in the same way that a pack of cigarettes a week can lead to 2 packs a day, and a few beers a week can lead to whiskey daily.

Fixed that for you.

Marijuana's reputation as a "gateway" drug is a myth, probably based on misleading statistics.

Drug Policy? You mean the one we have right now?

Or are you trying to create something the Government will never do?

Alcohol, tobacco, weed, and all non-medical drugs should be outlawed. People who ruin their lives can not help the state, and only hurt the state. The state, a compilation of the numerous individuals within a country, is inherently more important than anyone individual's thoughts or feelings.

contrary to what you hear, Marijuana does lead to other, harder drugs in the same way that a pack of cigarettes a week can lead to 2 packs a day, and a few beers a week can lead to whiskey daily.  Why?
Tolerance.  When your body has some form of drug, be it medical or not, in your body often, you get used to it; You build a tolerance.  The same effect that was harmless before now doesn't do it for you so you go after more.  Few people have the ability to avoid this.  Hell, this happens with caffeine too!

Don't you see the flaw in your logic here?  Tolerance, as you just pointed out, is taking more of a drug to get the effect, such as smoking more cigarettes to get more tobacco, and drinking harder liquors to get more alcohol.  So if someone had a marijuana tolerance, they would smoke more weed, not necessarily look for other drugs.  Tolerance for one drug has absolutely no effect on the physiological desire for another drug, especially if you've never taken it before.

I thought I ended this whole argument in another thread.  Remember folks, marijuana kills and only someone who is a user and defending their habit will tell you otherwise.

The failure of the execution of a policy does not show the policy bad, it just shows that administration is bad at executing it.

I don't agree. I think the fact that everyone likes to whine because their Husband won't come back on time because they went out drinking is the problem. The wives always have something to complain about. How about we outlaw them, and then we can go on?

Gay marriage is ok, but I'm sure Saddam and I will stay away from that, right Saddam?

Are you allergic to capitalization?

On the subject, legalize it and tax the shit out of it. You get money in 2 ways, first you don't spend as much on keeping prisoners/court costs, and you get extra tax revenue. Win/win.
You don't want to make an enemy of me. I'm very powerful.

That is true. That is why the state should stop all but the most efficient recreation, for moral and stress reasons.

Make up your mind.  If the government shouldn't protect people form themselves then who cares if people have a drug problem?


Drugs should stay illegal. They destroy lives.  I will agree that some drugs are worse than others, but that doesn't mean anything.  I'm partly hypocritical because i enjoy alcohol but humans have been drinking alcohol for thousands of years, whether intentional or not. Maybe in a couple thousand years when a person can go to a meth bar and get high and then the next day be find, have all their teeth, and not steal for money, and so on, then I will change my opinion.

Cigarettes should also be banned.  They cost me a shit ton of money and I don't smoke. Rolling your own tobacco is a little better because it lacks some chemicals.  But stepping up to weed with THC falls on the paragraph above.


You are dumb and you post dumb things.
Did I hurt your worthless feelings?

I agree, they have.

And anyone who denies the medical benefits of cannabis is seriously retarted.

And I think Lord Dave is confusing LSD with PCP as violence is not generally associated with LSD.

Me and everyone I know have never moved on to any other drugs.

I quit Marijuana 4 months ago. The weed smokers I know hate other drugs and would never touch them.

I'm sure this is the same with the majority of weed smokers, maybe a minority move onto other drugs.
