the unprompted hyperbole about the opposition does not help the case, nor is it a good set up for what if any potential this thread/poll may have... although they usually all usually end up covering the same ground and the same pattern.
Otherwise I am on your side, as evidenced by my signature.
the opposition was meant as a joke but all the things I stated were things the opponents of Marijuana legalization have used or still use as propganda against it.
I don't consider marijuana to be less dangerous than tobacco and alcohol. Just not worse than either. Whether or not marijuana takes away all motivation and turns you into a pacifist, stoners are still lazy imbeciles and they'll continue to be lampooned as such in movies even to the point of glamorization as if it's ok and it's right to be an idiot pothead loser. Something else that pisses me off is all of this bob marley crap and the pipes and bongs and such always have to have some stupid trippy design on them and there's always some idiot wearing a marijuana leaf like it's the cross or something. I hate the sight of that leaf symbol because whenever I see it I conjure up images of a legion of morons doing cartwheels, going bananas, hooting and hollering at the mere mention of 420. Very annoying lot. They want everyone to mellow and be laid back and cool but whenever they see some kind of marijuana symbol they spin around like the tazmanian devil, in a fit of pandemonium excitement. Pathetic. These bozos have helped me grow an appreciation for the massive drunken hordes who get all stoked about going to the bar for some almighty beer.
Regardless, I am all in favor of decriminalizing it and should it be sold I don't think there should be an unreasonable tax applied to it.
Other then being a substitute for opiates, I see no good in legalization. There simply are not enough people in this country who value personal reliance that could use it responsibly. Simply put, my desire for self preservation is greater then my desire for legalization.
but health wise a daily Marijuana user is much better of than a daily user of Alcohol and Tobacco, shouldn't you give people the choice of a safer alternative. And why should government have the right to tell me what I can and can't smoke?
Honestly, the government can tell me what they want, but if I am not violating another individuals liberties, then I don't care. Be smart about smoking and you will never have a problem with the law.
So I am a lazy imbecile?
Wow...you'd be surpised at the sheer amount of intelligent people who have admitted to smoking Marijuana or still do.
maybe this will make you reconsider.
ok, I understand but If people are going to do it and it doesn't violate others individual liberties then why not just legalize it?
Because people deserve a ticket if they do something stupid and get caught. Plus. I see no purpose for pot to be outside the home unless you are driving to pick it up from your dude and go home. Also, there are a lot more important things to worry about right now.
I don't know. Are you?
No, I would not be surprised and it's very likely that I still wouldn't value them for other reasons.
What's the point of having me reconsider if I'm not into the vilification of marijuana?
you said every pothead was a lazy imbecile
Is there an echo in here?you --don't-- consider Marijuana less dangerous than tobacco.

if marijuana is legalised, it needs to be highly regulated, there should be laws against smoking it in public, and driving while under its effects, selling to minors etc.
i'd prefer if it wasn't legalised, but it appears to be inevitable.
Simple but controversial question. It's a well know fact that it is less dangerous than Tobacco and Alcohol yet we imprison almost 1 million people every year for simple possession. The government spends billions every year fighting Marijuana yet it just proves to be futile. It is also considered medically useful for over 200 diseases and illnesses.
Ok my intro is somewhat biased
to counter my point
Marijuana makes black people go crazy and rape white women. It also kills brain cells and takes away all motivation and turns you into a pacifist!

You mean like presidents of the US? What losers they are!So I am a lazy imbecile? Wow...you'd be surpised at the sheer amount of intelligent people who have admitted to smoking Marijuana or still do.
