Because it takes time to get addicted? Do you think smoking 5 cigarettes will make you addicted too!?

If something "takes time" to get addicted to, it's not really addicting.

Again, there's a difference between being physically addicted to a substance and someone who does it because they enjoy it.

What about porn, video games, exercise, junk food... all of these things can be considered "addictive" by your definition.

Sure man. Soon you'll kill your kids and cook them for the Christmas dinner. All because pot made you insane and addicted.
This shite pist and all other reefer madness bullshite showing up are the last gasp of the "get drunk be somebody" crowd. Die hard rednecks or cops scared they can't give out 500 dollar tickets anymore.

You'll go through sickening withdrawals from heroin.

You won't go through withdrawals from marijuana...

Heed the warning, potheads

Wasting your time. Its like talking to an alcoholic

They refuse to accept the inevitable, until its destroyed everything they've touched. Then they want help, and all to be forgiven and forgotten

Also video games are way less cool now which is annoying.


Maybe you've just been playing shitty games while high. Pop in the new Doom and tell me you need drugs to enjoy it.

Well, they can be addictive.

It isn’t a physical dependence, but it is an addiction.

You can get addicted to anything.

This is my point. Marijuana is as addictive as any other "fun" activity out there.

Thus using addiction in any discussion regarding marijuana legislation is meaningless.

Why not let people make their own decisions/mistakes?


Because their decisions that are mistakes typically end up hurting others more than it hurts them.

Sigh...

It's amazing some people are this short sighted.

So let's also outlaw alcohol because people drink and drive. Outlaw Xanax too for the same reason, oh and every painkiller out there.

Outlaw vehicles because crazy people drive them.

Outlaw cell phones because people text and drive.

What else can we outlaw while we're on this line of thinking?


ETA: Oh we would definitely need to outlaw guns too in this case... no doubt

ignorant people

Anything can be addicting if you let it be. You have to have self control.

I quit smoking cold turkey when I knew I was ready. No gum, no patches, etc.

I told myself that in the situation I was in I needed to quit.

It's not addictive you just lack self-discipline.

Played it.

Played it high, played it sober. Awesome each time, but playing on drugs is the cats vagina. Nothing better.

Playing Skyrim on shrooms is weird and pretty disorienting for those curious.
