Damn right. Prohibition was a very successful time for..well, the mob. Why don't you see the DIRECT parallels between alcohol prohibition and the war on drugs?
Eating a tub of butter every day is bad for you too. Ban it.

You do realize that different drugs have different effects, and that the word "high" is just a general catch-all which can even be applied to someone who is drunk? Right?

Or did Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" campaign succeed in twisting your mind to the belief that if it's illegal, it might as well be heroin?


no, seriously, they are? damn, i thought nancy was speaking the gospel in that episode of different strokes...foolish me


what im getting at is, why should pot be legal and not others. people have different tolerances for certain drugs, and if one is legal then they all should be, thats all im saying, other words, youre playing favorites with the pot heads and not the smack or crack heads

and before anyone else wants to put words in my mouth, i also wouldnt mind alcohol and cigs illegal


listen to yourself


i stick 150% behind everything i have said, i have never and will never use drugs. i drink maybe 12 beers a year and will never ever smoke a cigarette

do you have a point?

As far as "harder" drugs go, I'm still on the fence. It's a delicate balance between individual freedom and public safety.


so why shouldnt "harder" drugs be legalized also? youre still getting the high arent you?


Because Hard drugs are not natural, Marijuana is.


Well, cocaine and opium derivatives also come from natural sources. Not sure where you are going with this one.


i think he is going here

pot - simply... grow, pick, hang upside down for a few days to dry, get rid of all the excess leaves, and toke

opium and coke are not simply a plant... a lot goes in to producing these substances using the poppy plants and coca leaves

It takes some work to make beer or vodka too. I'm not sure what the point is.

he has a point... but you really dont... im not going to ask for an opinion on drugs from someone who has never touched them... you obviously dont have any first-hand experience on these issues, so YOU are the one that has no point

I can't believe you stoners are talking about legalizing drugs when there is a war in Iraq. The nerve of you stoners, especially the ones who have kids.

Remember its better to go out "swinging" than to watch the 3rd reich. I mean strike.

Alcohol isn't a drug????


im sorry, drugs, you know, crack, coke, heroin, ectasy, qualudes, uppers, downers, oxycotin

yes i drink beer, which by definition is a drug, but never more than 3 or 4 a night and at best over a 4 hour period, and maybe 3 times a year, and the only reason i do that is my friend comes home from maryland and we go out

theres a huge distinction between the drug alcohol and the drug everything else, but i forgot, your from boston so you might not realise how to rationally think

1st - I am not from Boston, or Massachusetts for that matter.
2cd - Alcohol is THE Definition of a drug.
3rd - You seem to know an aweful lot about drugs for someone who doesnt do them.
4th- Why do I bother responding to your stupid post's?? If anyone can help me with this it would be much appreciated.

2cd - Alcohol is THE Definition of a drug.


A chemical substance, such as a narcotic or hallucinogen, that affects the central nervous system, causing changes in behavior and often addiction.

Zutmon, as fun as talking about the war in Iraq is after being mislead by pointless facts about the war day after day on the news is, us "stoners" are debating a topic that anyone can share their opinions on. So next time i'm on the "I had a wet dream last night" thread, i'll make sure we talk about something meaningful, so watch out you hopeful dreamers!

Peeps I'd never do half the shit you do, like drawing a swastika on my notebook, but that doesn't mean it should be illegal for you.

OK, but as Eric said, it takes some processing to make alcohol, too.

Still not seeing why "naturality" has to do with legalization.
