I have a dream. …
I have a dream. Waking up one morning without being afraid of living in a nasty country and getting my raped or getting in trouble with dangerous people for trying to buy something LESS DANGEROUS THAN ALCOHOL AND TABACCO! when the other two I mentioned are perfectly legal, less fun and more dangerous.
People do dangerous drugs that contain baking soda and/or other dangerous chemicals (crack) due to putting safe drugs like marijuana on their black lists of “dirty drugs”. ridiculous.

no! cannabis …
no! cannabis shouldnt be legalized!
who would want to take a drug that is safer than every other recreational drug out there, legal or not.
we cant legalize cannabis! or else alcohol and cigarette companies will lose money!
cannabis shuuld never be legalized! because then people would see the lies the government spin about it!
“two types of people in the world, the people that read about things and people that experience it, i know who i would listen to”

Surely, people who are against the legal use of marihuana will complain if someone stop selling sleeping pills…which one is worst?

Be careful …
Be careful promoting marijuana, any slip up can give someone an excuse to smear the image! And they will, the hypocrites will stop at no cost to slander the name of the healing plant. Don’t be negative , just respond with truth and education

i totally know what …
i totally know what ur talkin about but ive reached a lvl were i dont really do that anymore maybe because i grew up a bit but i think really anything not just drugs can become addictive…such as sex…theft…abuse…lying…eating i could go on and on. just because some ppl go over board like u and i did doesnt mean we should keep denying ppl the right to smoke it.

if you think pot …
if you think pot isnt addictive then you havent been smoking it for long enough. It may be one of the least addicting drugs (off the top of my head i’d say mushrooms are less, im sure there are others) but wait till you smoke for 7 years straight and all of a sudden it goes dry, as your scraping your pipe out for 1 resin hit remember this post

Looking at the …
Looking at the amount of people who want marijuana decriminalized, why is it not?
Are we not currently living in a country that was founded on the idea that the people should decide what is legal or illegal?
When did we start letting the government tell us what we want?
This flaw of the human condition is starting to make me sick.

the research shown …
the research shown to kill brain cells from marijuana usage was used on primates where they put oxygen masks on them and pumped the smoke into the oxygen mask. Since they had no way to take in oxygen from the continuing flow of smoke it caused brain damage. This showed up in the “Studies” and “research” later. we tested on humans the normal way you take in smoke it shows that it not only doesn’t kill brain cells but it in numerous cases stimulates brain cell activity…know where you get info…
