Marijuana & ciggarettes

[MSilvius]

Why are ciggarettes legal, and marijjuana illegal. Ciggarettes make u relaxed, and so does marijuana but just it takes u a litle bit higher.

And wich is worse for your health? Cigarettes are addictive and filled with tar and other chemicals. Marijuana is natrual, and u cannot get physically addicted to it, its only a mental thing where you want to do it again because its fun, not because ur body is depending on it. But both hurt your lungs.

what do u think?

I've never heard of cigarettes impairing your ability to make decisions.

Tobacco has congressional lobbyists.


Weed has High Times magazine

yea basically

Cigs....definately worse

<- smokes both.

Why is it illegal? Lobbies, racism, brainwashed public, etc.....

 

[MSilvius]

but marijuana makes u ralaxed and then eventualy u go to sleep, so you wouldnt have to make many decisions if ur just at your house doing it

and if it was legal, then i think they should make it illegal to smoke it in public, so you dont effect others and so you dont do something stoopid or dangerous to hurt others.

Cigarretes are also "natural" lol, as are many toxins. Cannabis contains way more tars etc, and heat of combustion about 500 degrees higher.
Cannabis smokers also tend to inhale deeper and hold it longer...I'd bet deleterious effects are greater for the unfiltered weed..although does not contain appreciable nicotine levels. "Vaporization" ingestion techniques probably safer though...

I've never heard of weed being the cause of deadly cancers.

neither.

if you enjoy life and either of those are part of it, enjoy it.

no point being all healthy and safe if you are unhappy.

One makes you stupid, unmotivated, lazy, slotfhful, clogs your brains pathways and both will make you broke.

Both are stupid.

I'm not a supporter of drug control, but it is pretty pathetic if you have to get high off of marijuana (or whatever) to be happy.

As if this hasn't been discussed before.. lol

Bottom line: It is stupid & hypocritical for some drugs to be legal while others are not.

Let people do what they want; you aren't going to stop them anyway.

Unhappiness like happiness is temporary. People enjoy happiness more, so it seems not to last as long as unhappiness.

Unhappiness is the price you pay for happiness.

Heat of combustion about 500º hotter? Never heard that one before. How do you figure?
