I'm just answering his question about forum guidelines. Stuff like this has been closed in the past. I don't care whether he posts it or not, personally.

I'm just saying that by the literal meaning of that guideline, discussing consumption of marijuana is not prohibited on this forum. If it was "Do not use our Forums to post any material, or links to any material, admitting to violation of any law" it would be, but then admitting to traffic violations would be against forum rules to.
 
I'd join a pro-cannabis forum if you really want to talk about it.

I don't do drugs, but if I did I wouldn't want to post about it on a forum that gets top google hits.

Alcohol is legal
Tobacco is legal
Pot is not legal

Not sure what the rules are on that around here. I do know this forum is chock full of pot heads though. Stuff being illegal doesn't seem to faze anyone. If you're a drug user I'm sure there are plenty of others to keep you company around here.



Same thing can be said about any drug. Oh the high is soooo awesome, try it! 🙄 He's a lot smarter to not try or get hooked on drugs.

The same can be said of alcohol and tobacco - they're drugs in every definition of the word.

You can always tell who doesn't smoke weed and bit the DARE drug bait (taking in the hook, line, and sinker). Weed isn't developing addicts nor ruining people's lives.

Yeah. A firefighter friend was telling me stories yesterday actually.

So yep, if you're going to smoke please buy local and encourage your friends to buy local and know your product. You don't want to be breathing in the pesticide shit that gets sprayed on it around here, and I don't want you funding the trade.

You're claiming weed isn't addicting? 🙄

I've never touched tobacco, and I have never been drunk.
 
Just saw a movie last night called Savages. It just came out in the theaters a day or two ago. Its all about marajauna and the Mexican drug cartel. If you are going to see the movie, it is pretty graphic with violence.

And all of it could be avoided just by legalizing it. keep up the good fight though.

dont spread stupid shit..


read anything about marijuana quality and learn about growing before you spout stupid nonsense...

pot is pot is pot is pot...

amazing pot comes from mexico, and amazing pot comes from the fucking UK, or spain, or france, or belgium, or canada, or fucking anywhere on the planet... grow up..

pot is pot. if somebody lied to you and said only good pot comes from xxxx or only bad pot comes from xxxx... then you been lied to.

where you get your pot from is gonna make a difference in the fact that... pot from mexico.. is usually cartel distribution.. which means... grow it.. in fields.. so it ends up seeded.. then thrown into a hot fucking shack for 2 weeks to dry, then bailed up and sent across the border to your local mexican..

or... grown either in a house, or in a small plot, by your local pothead/dealer/distributer who sexes (so no seeds), where it is taken care of, dryed and cured properly, and then shipped out (in smallish quantities, pounds, not tons)

in most of europe, the "cartels" or big disto's dont even fuck with flowers anymore.. hash is what they do there... read about soapbar hash.

They make more money if it's kept illegal? Or because they pay no tax?

I would think if its legal the industry would grow, and they would have more customers.

I'm not taking about good versus bad pot. I'm taking about crime production. When you buy en masse from my part of the world, you fund destructive criminals. When you buy locally you're funding a more mom and pop type of operation. Please do that.

Did you miss the part of my post where I said it would reduce problems if it was legalized? Or the part where I praised the sheriff for going after destructive criminal.gang growers only and leaving the others alone? If you were too busy playing the victim I understand.
 
Legalizing it will lead for people wanting to try harder drugs.

The us could make hella money if they taxed it though.
 
Addictive personalities will abuse whatever they have available to them.

Pot is just another option. Probably the least damaging on most scales when lumped together with alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs


Surpired no jah rastafarians have posted

The victim? I don't even smoke weed. Haven't touched it in over 12 years.
 
The cartels don't want it legalized because then corporate america would get involved. I can see it now the new "iPOT" and if you try and compete with us we will sue your butts off.
