As I've said before, the only sources I've heard from that say it's really good is Marijuana users themselves. If you use something constantly, wouldn't you want to defend it?
My friends are smokers even though they understand full well that cigarettes cause cancer and lung disease. They won't defend it, doesn't mean they don't do it. I defend Cannabis because I understand it, and I understood it way before I began smoking it.
It's obviously something one turns to when depressed, because they can't find something constructive and useful to get their mind off the stress. Watching a movie, reading a book, playing a videogame, all those will take your mind off of troubles. You don't need to pay for it, and since it's illegal in many parts, you shouldn't have to break the law for pleasure. It's a stupid thing to do. Find something better to do with your time.
No, it's not, you ignorant forgettard. Nothing what you said here is true and you just made more generalizations and assumptions that are downright loving insulting and unintelligent. I'm done arguing with you, you proceed to ignore everything I've said in this thread and continuously justify your choice not to do it with pseudo-facts, misinformation, and ignorance.
Exactly, why break the law for something you can already do that's even better?
Talk to Martin Luther King about that. It's called civil disobedience, one of the prime reasons I take part in the culture.
Nobody needs drugs
Say that to a cancer patient or a victim of Alzheimer's. Say that to your dentist when you go get your teeth drilled. Say that to your brain when it releases endorphins or adrenaline, both naturally-occurring drugs in your own body. Say that to yourself as you constantly use the drug "caffeine". Your hypocrisy and all-around ignorance is disgusting.
#1 reason I don't need this stuff.
I don't need it to release tension, or feel good, or be like the "cool" kids. I don't need it for escaping troubles, forgetting bad things, or to forget reality. My life is good enough for me not to muddy it up with drugs.
It's useless to most people, and if you use it, you have something going on in your life. Please prove me wrong.
You're like 14, no loving stuff you don't need it you handicap. You don't understand what it's like to do manual labor for 8 hours or more a day. You realize that average parents and well-off adults use it too? It's not just teenagers in an alleyway, god forget. No one listens to the stuff I say and you constantly spout absurd garbage like you know what the forget you're talking about.
I will reiterate this one more time:
People under the age of 18 should not be allowed to smoke. There is no reason for you to and it can be detrimental to your developing brain and body. I am 18, I am an adult, and I use it responsibly. There's a big difference. It's not an escape from reality or a hiding place from my depression, it's a social tool and a recreational activity like videogames. Of course you kiddies don't need something to help you relax, you don't hold daunting dayjobs, you're not adults yet.
Drugs are not something a responsible adult "turns to". I led a normal life before, and I maintain a normal life now.
