This is a discussion thread about Marijuana, Cannabis, Weed, Dank, 420, Pot. It is currently legal in a few states, though they are regulating the usage of it.
contrary to popular belief, weed doesnt cause cancer, it's like alcohol, impairs your motor skills. that's about it.
I figure you young kids will be eventually come into contact with it once you hit your college/high school years, and it would be good to dispel some wrong and wayward thinking brought on by the government.
so please have fun, ask questions, keep it lighthearted.
For others who partake in god's choice smokes please give me some of your favorite dank
Weed is legal in a couple of states, cali, colorado. up in Canada, Vancouver has legalized weed. Amsterdam too.
It's a great experience really, not advocating you should try it, since it is also quite the expensive plant (prices are artificially inflated in legalized areas also for government control purposes)
My favourite part is the bit near the beginning when they're explaining the story of hemp. For those of you who haven't watched the documentary, hemp was made illegal because it supposedly made people violent pre WW2. Then it was legalised during the war because of its great potential for making necessities. After the war due to the Red Scare it was made illegal again for the exact opposite reason it was made illegal pre war, because it was said to make you a pacifist. Tragically hilarious.
I love that documentary. You did sort of told the story wrong. You can't get high off of hemp. The variety of marijuana that you can get high off of was said to make people violent, then passive. Hemp, being of the same family(?), was unfortunately grouped together with the stuff you can get high off of. The whole thing about the war was to point out how useful hemp can be, and how it's illegal, despite how you can't get high off of it.
I know I'm backtracking a bit, but Marijuana is a gateway drug. It's true that a lot of people who use Marijuana don't use other drugs like meth, but most of people who do use other drugs started with Marijuana.

This is heavily flawed logic! If what you say is true, then caffeine would be considered more dangerous than marijuana, milk more dangerous than caffeine, and H2O the most dangerous gateway substance of all!
I have had people i kow come to my house stoned before and i cant even stan being around them so i just tell them to get out or remove them by force if neccesary
NoName you sorta proved my logic, seeing that Marijuana has no ill long term effects... (best)water->milk->caffeine->marijuana->other stuff like meth(worst). I wasn't saying that marijuana was worse than meth, I'm just saying that people who abuse drugs probably started marijuana first, but not everyone who uses marijuana uses things like meth...

no not really. it usually is because of peer groups that they abuse drugs. depending on the type of peers in your group would cause you to abuse certain drugs. not necessarily start out with marijuana. It is used by DARE to brainwash naive children like you so you'd never even bother to try it. I mean this is shown in your categorizing Caffeine being healthier than marijuana. OBVIOUSLY, you know very little about it, but thats ok, this thread is in existence because of that. so maybe it be best if you did a little research and then presented this research to us you would have a stronger argument.
I've done some research on the negative effects of marijuana, and I actually found stuff, but my friend says it's all not true because it is information given by the government
