DrDawkinstein Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Put down the hemos you wastoid. Alcohol is legal. If we legalize pot then we've got boozers and stoners getting in my way. Boozers = lots of impaired people. Legalizing pot = more impaired people. I see you're really getting into the spirit of this 4/20 thing. we get it, youve got one sweet line for this thread. accuse everyone of being a burn-out. next.
Nervous Guy Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 with the current setup it's easier for kids to buy weed, than to buy booze and cigarettes. I agree...when my son told me as a HS freshman that about 80% of the kids at his school smoked I laughed it off...4 years later I know that's true. And it's a pretty big school...amazing.

And it's a pretty big school...amazing. because drug dealers dont ID people. like gas stations, and liquor stores, and... wait for it... Marijuana Dispensaries! the current setup is handing kids a gateway drug. a gateway to learning how to buy drugs. how to find drug dealers. how to safely associate with someone very dangerous just to buy a plant. THAT is what the current setup is teaching kids. maybe if they werent hanging out a drug dealers house, and instead were in their basement (maybe high) starting a new band, or perfecting their painting skills, they wouldnt be exposed to Meth and Coke. but what do i know. im too high to be rational.
Nervous Guy Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Me too. It was fun in HS and college but you gotta grow up sooner or later. I am sure there are very successful people who partake in smoking but I know a hell of a lot more who never grew out of it or got decent jobs. yep...I think it's called "putting your big boy pants on".
Chef Jim Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 we get it, youve got one sweet line for this thread. accuse everyone of being a burn-out. next. So you're cool with more impaired people being on the streets and driving cars? That's not really the thoughts of someone who's a burn out, more like a dumb ass.
Hazed and Amuzed Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 we get it, youve got one sweet line for this thread. accuse everyone of being a burn-out. next. Be nice to Chef Emeril, if you wake him from his fantasy world, he could get angry, and if that happens... well maybe he'll come up with a NEW line and that's a scary thought.
Nervous Guy Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 because drug dealers dont ID people. like gas stations, and liquor stores, and... wait for it... Marijuana Dispensaries! so all the illegal "dispensaries" will just magically disappear????
DrDawkinstein Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 so all the illegal "dispensaries" will just magically disappear???? yes, if they are un-needed. why would ANYONE choose to deal with a thug when there is a safe establishment right up the road?
taterhill Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 yes, if they are un-needed. why would ANYONE choose to deal with a thug when there is a safe establishment right up the road? ill be back...I have to go meet someone under the skyway bridge to buy a case of beer
Stl Bills Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 ill be back...I have to go meet someone under the skyway bridge to buy a case of beer
Hazed and Amuzed Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 yes, if they are un-needed. why would ANYONE choose to deal with a thug when there is a safe establishment right up the road? Exactly!!! I could definitely see kids still finding a way to get their hands on it, like they do with alcohol but once of age why the hell would you want to go anywhere else but a dis. I mean especially with all the different types of smoke nowadays, why would you want to go to some guy who has just one choice? It's like buying cigerettes from your friends but all they have are Newports.
DrDawkinstein Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 hey guys, ill be back in about 30 minutes. if BB27 stops in, i had to go runs some errands.
Magox Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 I see you're really getting into the spirit of this 4/20 thing. Ya, I believe in personal freedoms, that's pretty consistent with the rest of my views. People don't magically become lazy because of marijuana, that is something that you just are or aren't. So whenever I hear the "The weed made me lazy" argument. I have to laugh, because it's just a weak ass excuse to push off the blame of an inherent issue that most people don't want to confront.

I'd like to see someone prove that, especially with all the talented athletes who smoke.
BB27 Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 I wasn't going to post anything else in this thread, but, I believe you all have testified that people who use pot, use only pot and they are not going to branch out and try anything else. A bunch of you have actually cited your personnal experiences with being so called, "strict" potheads. Your previous confessions about using ILLEGAL mushrooms. But, I get it, you just use pot, and it doesn't cause any problems like memory loss..........

Look I partied more than my share but until it becomes legal you guys are just pissing in the wind. And if you honestly think weed does not make you lazy then you are either smoking something with a lil extra in it or you're lying. I have never got the sudden urge to go outside and do yard work after smoking a bone. You do it to relax and enjoy the mood, not go pay basketball or work out.
BUFFALOTONE Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Wait, my favorite is "It kills your ambition" Really? I'd like to see someone prove that, especially with all the talented athletes who smoke. Didn't you just quit something? If i am not mistaken?

I bet you drive the exact speed limit too, don't wanna break any laws do ya or wait is there some laws that are okay to break? Like going 56 in a 55?
Nervous Guy Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 yes, if they are un-needed. why would ANYONE choose to deal with a thug when there is a safe establishment right up the road? the kids will go to the thugs as it has been for many generations....the safe establishment won't sell to them.

I have never got the sudden urge to go outside and do yard work after smoking a bone. You do it to relax and enjoy the mood, not go pay basketball or work out. Well, then people should think about smoking AFTER they complete their daily responsibilities. This is where personal accountability comes in to play. In regards to pissing in the wind, you think I care if they legalize it? It doesn't make one bit of difference to me, it's not as if it's a fight that I really care about. It was a 4/20 post and I responded with my opinion. My point is that they may as well legalize it, it's not as if that all of a sudden the whole country is going to be significantly impacted by it. However, what it will do, is increase tax revenues and lessen the violence that we have with our southern neighbors. In my view, it makes sense.
