But hey, if you can use it and not do personal damage to yourself/others, then go nuts.

are you dumb? cuz it sure sounds like it. You make it sound like it being illegal STOPS people from doing it.

I don't believe I ever said that, if I did, please point it out to me so I can correct myself.

I am tryihng to figure out wth you are saying because its encrypted in a bunch of BS. Why should it be illegal again?

:roll: Controlling the drug requires controlling the people.

I believe in natural selection. By preventing problems from sorting themselves out, we only compound the problems in the long run.

Because let's face it- heroin addicts are high on heroin right now, anyway. Illegality isn't stopping drug abuse, it's only adding a new problem to an already existing problem.

um exactly why it should be legal. Government controls distribution like pharmacies. Government has no control over anything right now. Every time they sieze 1000 kilos at the boarder probably 100,000 kilos got through.

Be honest with me here- If you really wanted to get some pot, does the fact that it's illegal stop you from getting it? I bet from anywhere in the country, anything you want is than 10 minutes away. The law of supply/demand still works, it's just that the government made it fall out of regulation. Now it's untraceable and uncontrollable. Stupid move on their part.

Most people in the US can't control themselves, period. Most people in the US overindulge on fast food and are obese. Should we abolish fast-food joints because you have idiots out there that abuse it? Of course not.

Don't blame the substance that a person without self-control becomes addicted to, blame the person. It's their fault.

What are your thoughts on Video Loterry Terminals? Nova Scotia has decided to ban them completely because they are just too addictive for too many people. Thoughts?

What? They just sold people something that they wanted to buy. Just like alcohol or cigarette manufacturers. Unfortunately some stupid people think that alcohol and tobacco are somehow "better' because they're legal.

Where do these dumbasses keep coming from? tobacco is on the same level as crack, cocaine and heroine?

Someone get this noob outta here before I lose control. :roll:

Ive done heroin, coke, weed, pain killers, the list goes on. The one thing i cant quit? Tobacco.

I never said we wouldn't be able to get it, shit, I could probably get it from my mom. But it would definitely be harder to get some.

In all honesty, some people are too afraid to do it due to the legal consequences, some people don't want to have to deal with cops, and they're scared of getting caught with it.

I believe China employs firing squad.

He does have a point. Why are some drugs considered "worse" than others? Alcohol and tobacco kill more people and have a more widespread use than the aforementioned yet are socially condoned.

If you actually bothered to address his entire post you'd notice that he doesn't imply that they are on the same level. But no, you choose to employ the strawman approach.

Oh, and he registered BEFORE you...so you're the noob.

Coke utterly destroys your life. It literally ceases your life to a grinding halt. It breaks families, marriage, friendship, career and obliterates every aspect of your precious life.

Coke and Tobacco on the same level? :roll: There's a legitimate reason why society accepts tobacco as legal while coke isn't. Your so-cool and deviant, alternative thinking is nothing but trash like any other idiots who think coke is on the same level as tobacco.

alachol does all those things you described coke as doing

i agree with the first comment made here drug dealers are just supply and demand capitialists, there is a demand and a VERY FVCKING LARGE ONE so they supply it

yes drugs are bad however that does not stop peopel from doing them

you seem to be the moron here

More proof that smoking kills.

Starving child crawling for food, vulture waiting for him to die, typical media person snapping pictures rather than helping the little fellow out.

Hope the Pulitzer is made of heat resistant metal or else it's not doing him any good now.

My mom actually told me the background to that story once. All the photographer did after taking that shot was chase the vulture away. Later, after winning the Pulitzer Prize, the photographer, wracked with guilt at not having saved this child, killed himself.

Bah, what he did cannot under any circumstances be defended by these "top principles." At times like these a truly good person would know when to completely throw these lowly principles of profession out the fvcking window and let HUMANITY take over. I do not enjoy that he took his own life, but I cannot look past him just leaving the child to die.

I do not pretend to care more than the average person..

I don't believe in banning them. It's the person's fault that they are compulsive gamblers. I have friends who gamble. In fact, every gambler I've ever talked to has told me that they're up on the casino. It's idiocy.

I don't gamble. People probably shouldn't gamble, but they should have a choice in the matter.

Why? It breaks up families, puts people on the streets, its a BAD thing.
If they are alowed to choose, why not the drugies?
