What do you think about cannabis?

Source?

Otherwise we're just making stuff up. Did you know that used motor oil makes a fantastic hair conditioner?

You gotta try T-bone steak joints.

Keep your filthy Spanish out of the site.

Sarcasm? I smoke herb every day (vaporize) and I've never been able to finish a cigarette without feeling sick. Actually, the green stuff really helped my girlfriend knock off the nicotine habit, she hasn't had a cigarette in almost four years.

Clearly you haven't done it.

"you get effects similar to being drunk."

O_o

lol.. So much wrong with your post.

1) He didn't say it does not affect the body. He said it's mostly harmless unless heavily abused.

2) Regulation has nothing to do with breath tests or anything judicially punitive, for that matter. Regulation is about having registered producers of a drug, in this case farmers, under governmental oversight, with quality control on the product before sale. Also, usually, this would mean a govt. tax on the product, to cover the costs of regulation. Potentially, the govt. might be the sole buyer of the crop, like they now do in Uruguay, to help encourage growth of the crop by guaranteeing a steady revenue stream for the farmers, so they can take production, sale and distribution out of the hands of organised crime, faster..

3) "Driving while high is almost as bad as driving while intoxicated." Well, first off, "intoxicated" means "under the influence of a chemical substance" - not necessarily alcohol only. Second, if that were true, you'd see a lot more weed-related deaths and claims at insurance companies. The reality is that alcohol has a far more subtle effect at its' onset, and gives far more of a sense of confidence in your ability to drive, react fast, etc, than marijuana does. When you're high, you know you're high, and can feel precisely how much of an effect it's having on your motor skills, etc. Aside from that, the effect it has on delaying sensory input is far less, you could even say senses like touch, smell and hearing get heightened. On alcohol, you might look left, and your actual perception might only catch up to that movement a half second later - while you're chanting about how that third beer did nothing to you and you're fine. Go look up the figures, in cold hard dollars, for yearly damage caused by alcohol related traffic incidents. And while you're at it, why not broaden your search and look up damages caused by alcohol related incidents in general, as well as crime where alcohol was a part of proceedings. Lots of spousal abuse, battered wives (something like 80% of domestic abuse cases have alcohol as a part of the problem), bar fights, people in the hospital from those fights, broken bar equipment and stools, vandalism. Now compare that to all the people that at the time these things were going down, were calmly sitting at home smoking a joint with friends, relaxing and giggling, or maybe driving on the highway, all the way on the right lane, slowly but safely, knowing they were high.

agree, but alcohol being legal, in my eyes, is the same concept as guns being legal in America. they both damage the county and are stupid to be legal. but I still think cannabis should be illegal. its pretty much a gateway for people who get no 'high' off it to try heavy stuff. the world economically would be a lot worse of a place if cannabis was legalised

I'd rather see people do neither of those.
