A question like this would only come from someone who hasn't smoked before.

Weed might not be for everyone, just like drinking isn't for everyone, but if you've ever smoked, even just once, you know that it leads to nothing.

Isn't that kind of a weak argument to suggest that pot isn't as bad as other drugs. You've basically acknowledged that pot is bad (whatever that means) but it's not as bad as fill in the blank.

my only argument is nobody starts out shooting heroin. it starts with alcohol. It isn't in most cases but alcohol is the 101 introduction course into altered states of mind.

No, its not weak.

It isn't chemically addictive. That, to me, is the worst thing about drugs. That is what ruins lives - addiction.

It also is impossible to OD on. There are 0 marijuana intoxication deaths in the history of the world.

I mean, putting smoke in your lungs isn't great, but it isn't the carcinogen cigarettes are. If you vape it as an adult there are very, very little negative side effects.

It also has very effective medicinal uses.



Also, what isn't bad for you? Things have to be judged on some sort of scale. Is heroin and caffeine the same? No, one is way fricking worse. Its a weak argument to suggest there is a black and white to the danger of everything. There isn't, its almost entirely gray.

Do you know the reason for MJ introduced first and not something like heroin? Because it it the safest "drug" there is. Safer than alcohol

Are you seriously suggesting that shooting heroin is safer than doing whiskey? You've lost your mind.

Take the time to read what I wrote. I said MJ was safer than alcohol and therefore much safer than heroin

I guess too much booze or drugs can kill you which you already know. All Im saying is if you like any of that too much you should be careful because these guys who were all pretty good friends of mine are no longer with us and its sad.



That is sad man, sorry.

Everything in moderation is key. I won't be a dick and argue about what caused their deaths.

Yes, it is a gateway, but for some people it's as bad as it gets. A few years ago my cousin went to a party and somebody handed him a joint and he took a puff even though I warned him not to. He ended up passed out in the corner and when they checked on him it was too late to save him. People say marijuana is safe but in reality it's a dangerous narcotic that's destroying our communities

Not all the time apparently. According to some professor on here, you can do all the heroin you want cause it's the safest "drug" there is.

might wanna read up on this guy prof
