Anyone that has tried marijuana can nod in agreement, that the immediate effects are so pacifying, that no one will ever be in danger from someone else smoking; excluding cases like smoking and driving. Unlike legal substances like alcohol, which despite also being very a pleasant drug, CAN cause people to become violent and aggressive. Other people are never is any real danger from marijuana's effect on its users; it's simply too mellowing.
Alcohol is one of the most easy drugs to overdose from, and it's a widely accepted fact that you cannot overdose on marijuana [1]. Even withdrawal from chronic marijuana addiction are highly mild, and are not life threatening [2], unlike other legal substances [3].
Contrary to popular belief, marijuana is not linked with psychosis or schizophrenia, unlike other legal substances [4] [5]. Marijuana's main psychoactive compound THC is only known to cause psychosis-like states, at very high dosages, albeit these are temporary, non-chronic, and cannot be classified as a mental illness from drug abuse [6].
Most popular criticism of marijuana usage, appears to be the idea that it "rots your brain"; as in it ruins your cognition, ability to learn, and ability to remember, shot term or long term. These are documented effects, are they permanent? Studies show that even long term cognitive impairment appear to be reversible, and couldn't find any statistically significant evidence of marijuana causing irreversible impairment [7].
I don't fucking care, have your DUDE WEED LMAO. I just want my country back, and it seems im getting it
Landon Ortiz
california, nevada, maine, and massachussetts just legalized
Logan Gutierrez
Why?
You have like 80% of all thread created on Sup Forums to talk about Trump in. You're in the wrong thread.
Joshua Brown
weed makes multiculturalism so much more tolerable desu senpai
Jack James
How so?
Charles Cooper
Trump should legalize it nation-wide first day in office >Libtards BTFO
Jaxson Mitchell
It comes as no surprise that it's a fellow Dane who started this thread.
Go' ryger.
(Er det bare mig, eller er Staden blevet lagt mere hyggelig efter de hev boderne ned? I stedet for at kobe fra en skummel, maskeret rocker, så kober jeg nu okologisk skunk fra en chillern skægget gut.)
Jace Jackson
>WHY CANT I HAVE MY WEED >sure fine, but don't ruin my shit >FUCK OFF YOU HURT MY FEEFEES i change my mind, death penalty for all pot users
Jose Sullivan
That's a great idea, and I hope he does it. it's only a bonus that it will confuse the fuck out of lefties.
Owen Thompson
No, it should be decriminalized, big difference.
Joshua Perez
Yes It's a strain on the legal system and prison system And it isn't even that dangerous past a certain age
Blake Wilson
You said you don't fucking care about the question of legal or illegal marijuana, so why come in and ramble about wanting your country back? I don't get it.
Illegal to sell but legal to possess and consume? If so, why not also selling it? Otherwise, do elaborate.
Tak! (Er fra Aalborg, så er ikke så tit på staden)
Gabriel Thomas
>You said you don't fucking care about the question of legal or illegal marijuana context was that it was a nonissue you fucking aspie. I also said "sure" as in legalize it. you fucking liberals just need everyone to fall 100% in line or it's not good enough gas yourself
Sebastian Rivera
I think it should be legalized, its really not that bad.
Robert Sanders
Make it legal to possess and grow, but illegal to buy anywhere else than state owned dispensaries, then crank up the price. Make seeds legal and allow 3 plants in a household per person over 21 living there. Encourage people to grow it themselves, but if they're too lazy for that then they can buy it for a markup.
Establish a nation of people who know how to grow plants, plus reap sweet tax dollars.
Carter Reyes
No.
I've seen weed ruin lives, turn normal kids into bums. I don't care what big weed (((studies))) you link, i've seen them burn their fucking brains out.
Weed destroys the culture.
Charles Jones
"I don't fucking care, have your DUDE WEED LMAO" is a strange way to say "sure, it's a non-issue". Also I'm not liberal / left-wing, so fuck off mate.
Cooper Morales
>Anecdotal evidence Not an argument.
Asher Reyes
Maybe because it makes people a little TOO laid back?
Logan Thomas
No...not illegal to sell, that's one of many points/pluses to decriminalization. When made "legal" independent growers are forced from having their own crops. When decriminalized, anyone can grow it.
It takes all marijuana laws off the books. No fines, no court costs, no flooding jails and prisons.
Also, when made "legal" government has the ability to lessen amounts of TCH.
I know it is a pie-in-the-sky idea, but it should be taught that government intervention on marijuana will lead to more negatives, than positives.
Adam Taylor
I agree to some extent: The smoke is similar to worse in the damage it does to lungs. So while a lot better than alcohol it should be treated the same as tobacco.
Caleb Phillips
Yes. Not because it is not degenerate, it is, but because it doesn't make sense to waste public money on chasing and incarcerating potheads. Regulate it, tax it and let it be the end of that.
Anthony Nguyen
Actually, seeds are already legal in Denmark to my knowledge. In case you want to dabble in growing it.
Carter Taylor
I am like this normally
Oliver Wright
They are.
I've had a window plant in my room like everyone else when I was a teenager. But I can't be fucking asked to grow it when it's illegal and risky, and I can just take public transport for 30 minutes to get to Staden.
John Kelly
Agreed.
My roommate is a good example. Hes about to graduate with a general business degree with a 2.1 gpa at 24 years old.
He does nothing but play video games highwhile he sucks on his vaporizer. Thats all he does.
He also has "ADHD" which is a joke of a diagnosis.
Hunter Hernandez
I smoke weed everyday and I am 3.7 gpa student in crop genetics about to get phD, the problem with weed is the culture and nigs around it
99% of the classes are taught by tenured professors who give 0 fuks because no one majors in that crap anymore.
Its like a dance theory degree, no wonder you went for the phd hehehehe
Carter Gray
My social circle consist mostly of engineers and other STEM graduates, from my time at a technical university.
Maybe half of them smoke weed regularly (weekends, vacations, etc). However they all have a jobs and responsibilities that they tend to successfully.
Not that any of that holds any real value in a discussion like the one in this thread, but it kinda pokes a hole in the idea you guys have, that weed is ruining lives, and not the possibility that these people are just weak and need help.
Ian Kelly
No one is saying a joint on the weekend with your virgin STEM buddies will ruin your life. Daily use WILL. ESPECIALLY if its throughout the day and not just at night.
Jeremiah Morris
>being this upset that i don't fall in line with your liberal fantasies. I couldn't care less about what you do. leftists like you are disgusting, what do i have to smoke that disgusting shit too? you make me sick parasite
>Daily use WILL. ESPECIALLY if its throughout the day and not just at night. No? Smoking daily is like grabbing a glass of wine or a beer when you get home. Moderation is key, and moderating a daily usage is very possible.
I don't want or need you to fall in line with anything. I want Trump talk in Trump threads, and marijuana talk in marijuana threads. Is this EXTREMELY hard to understand?
After your clarified your cryptic way of agreeing to deal with a "non-issue" in a certain way, I get what you mean, and all I want you to do now is take talk about "getting your country back" to a thread that revolves around Trump. fucking hell dude.
Gabriel Powell
No one needs more low lifers on welfare sucking up all the tax money hard workers pay.
Ethan Jenkins
No I don't think weed should be legal. The shit smells terrible, it makes boredom entertaining and it will increase car crashes.
Lucas James
>The shit smells terrible, it makes boredom entertaining and it will increase car crashes. Yeah, I hate alcohol.
Sebastian Rogers
Line cook here
You cannot say anything negatively about weed unless your job is 10/10 stressful. There are support groups specificaly for alcoholics in the service industry because it's so hellish at times. I stay away from the daily booze Jew and instead take the green Jew daily. Helps me sleep, helps me relieve stress, all around a good thing. Not to mention crippling pain from dipping into lowboys all day for years straight. It solves that too!
The weed is bad meme is the pharmaceutical Jew trying to reel you back
Owen Richardson
I wish it was legalized and companies didn't drug test you for it. The only downside of weed is the month long detection period.
Anthony Adams
As a businessman, how can Trump not see the immediate benefits of federal legalization?
Jacob Johnson
>legalize weed >grow your own for $0.8/gram
Bentley Martin
You should also consider the possibility that the weed is keeping you content with a very difficult and low paying job when you could find something better with a little extra work.
If being a line cook and needing to smoke every day just to get through your job is what you want your life to be then that's your choice but at least consider the possibility.
Anthony Martin
On other hand is can help you overcome the fear (if you have one) of losing your established work-place and trying something new. It's different for everyone.
Caleb Peterson
Society does need people to do the shit jobs one way or another. Anything that helps them get through their days and is less dangerous than fucking alcohol is a plus in my book.
Josiah Jones
Alcohol smells good, what are you on about, also it doesn't make boredom entertaining it just makes you depressed.
Jace Lopez
>literally saying fuck drumpf jesus christ CTR fucking stop.
Eli Perez
Woke up with anxiety this morning. Took a puff. Anxiety gone.
Without weed today, I'd be lying in bed trying to relax from a chemical process I have no control over. I would probably show up late to work or call out on worse days.
I don't need to pay $300+ every week, two weeks, or month to be on a medication that benefits me only on certain days. If I am mentally ill, it's borderline. My use is like someone popping ibuprofen to ease the occasional headache.
Also, I can drink with weed, not on SSRIs.
Nathaniel Bennett
In germany - yes.
Weed is avialable all the time with close to no presecution and Netherlands are just a few hours drive for half of the country. By now not legalizing it is just support of organized crime and missed tax income.
The Prohibition of weed is just as successful as the prohibition of alcohol in america in the 30s. If we had Mafia shootouts with tommyguns about it, it already would be legal.
