GhettoDogAllStars 10-23-2006, 10:24 AM i don't really see how it's funny or weird. opium is illegal and natural. uranium is natural, but it's illegal to possess it under most situations, etc...
opium and uranium are both processed -- marijuana is not. that is the key difference. you could own 1000 acres of land and have some natural marijuana plants growing, without being aware, and you'd be committing a crime. you didn't plant it, you don't sustain it -- but it's illegal because uncle sam says so. bullshit -- that's nature.
now, if you were growing poppy plants, and making opium from it, that doesn't compare. but the point is: opium doesn't make itself.

This is going to sound rude, and I don't mean it that way, but the drugs are drugs comment is short sighted. How many drugs have you taken in your life? How many possibly saved your life? All drugs are not created equally. Every drug is different, and marijuana is different. I firmly beleive God put it on this planet for a reason.
Anywho, some chronic helped me get over that horrible loss and make me feel better that our season is already over.

100% correct! Great post!
My friend tried to compare cocaine to weed saying the ingrediants for weed have been put on this earth from God and cocaine is bad. But I had the same argument...weed is untouched...unmolested. All those other drugs are not.

What about shrooms? Or peyote? Or any other "natural" psychedelic? I'm pretty sure we don't want people driving their VW buses around town licking toads and have the cops powerless to do anything about it.

For as much as I've heard "weed makes me a better driver", I am just not sure that is true. In fact, I KNOW it makes me a worse driver. Sure it slows me down, but it makes me less aware of my surroundings.
That being said, I don't think anyone said "hey I'm going to smoke a bowl and drive 50 miles". Just like drinking, we don't want anyone under the influence driving.
yawn

I don't claim to partake in those sorts of activities currently, but let's just say that during my long and winding road of an undergrad college career... shit happened.
