Obama and Clinton smoked pot, even when Clinton made this idiotic message that he never inhaled. Don't you think that the real problems are hard drugs that cause physical and/or psychological harm/ addiction? It's not about being a grown man now, it's more about people being ignorant and/or arrogant, or just open-minded, and understanding the difference between good and bad. Destructive, or harmless. Sounds like you are an expert. You know whats right and wrong, and you know whats good or bad, right? So, just because Clinton and Obama smoked, or still smoking pot, that makes it okey to do inte a foreign country where it´s deemed illegal? (I guess both the good or bad and the right or wrong fell apart quite quick here, or how would you phrase it?) So according to you it seems like it´s arrogant and ignorant to follow the laws in the country you reside. (Neither of that is going to fit tine inside your world of right or wrong and good or bad, right) Too me the real problemes reside in the fact that people like you try to privately legalize something that is illegal, and also tries to shit the focus to if it´s more or less dangerous. That is not anything this story or news regards. Too me it reads like you put yourself in a very difficult spot with that comment! And last, no I am not full of hate. If it were legal it would be a totally different ballgame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason why some, NOT ALL people try harder drugs is the illegality of drugs that usually puts the dealers into the same areas where many drugs are available. Of course are heroin dealers happy to have new customers and they'll sell to anybody with cash. But it's not true that people start with soft drugs, then have to switch to harder drugs.

You made no point and you made nothing clear. Giving basic information as a person helped other addicts. Information everybody should be aware of without education. The only thing you managed to state, was that you believe that you have a better knowledge and are right against drug commisioners in a certain number of countries. What gives you that special gift?

It's an insane lie. I didn't say it was. I just stated we had no time for needle users or people who ended up on crack. They were persona non grata in our circles because they could not be trusted. Harsh but true. Most people who got into the crack cocaine scene, were people who were spending vast amounts of money and time on coke. The crack gave them a bigger hit. It also, just like smack, made them unreliable and untrustworthy. Everybody and his dog was doing coke in the 90's in the UK, but they still went to work on a Monday morning and they didn't have to steal from their family.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you live in, or visit Thailand much? Can´t be any nice trips you want to remember in that case. As you state Thailand as an uncivilized country contrary to the ones that legalized pot. The freedom of people has never been taken away. There are places in the world you can smoke legally in. Do it there. Maybe you belive that a murderers freedom is to kill other people, and we should all just let him or her continue with that. Laws are there for a reason. The first reson is to be followed, and not like teenagers believe to be broken. That, though, is something that a person that grows up to an udult stage realize with time.

If you think that this is not true, you have no understanding of how dangerous all drugs can be. oh. come. on... Even the DEA states no known deaths from overdosing on marijuana.https://www.dea.gov/druginfo/drug_data_sheets/Marijuana.pdf Yes 'technically' it is possible, but the amounts are so utterly extreme it's just a ridiculous argument.https://www.themaven.net/theweedblog/culture/how-much-marijuana-does-it-take-for-someone-to-overdose-1C8KxtV02keLgibkKQlqFA?full=1 Quote At present it is estimated that marijuana’s LD-50 is around 1:20,000 or 1:40,000. In layman terms this means that in order to induce death a marijuana smoker would have to consume 20,000 to 40,000 times as much marijuana as is contained in one marijuana cigarette. NIDA-supplied marijuana cigarettes weigh approximately .9 grams. A smoker would theoretically have to consume nearly 1,500 pounds of marijuana within about fifteen minutes to induce a lethal response What is *dangerous* is the complete lack of knowledge that some people have, in that they see *all* drugs as equally dangerous - it's this lack of education that contributes immensely to actual overdoses. Some kids get fed this rubbish and when they discover that it's not true for weed (as they often do, because it is extremely common), sometimes they assume it's not true for all the other ones as well. The kids I grew up with that did end up as *actual* heroin addicts tended to be the most sheltered ones.
