Stop smoking Marijuana

[trillions of atoms]

Lisa you know good and well, getting on a forum in which you researched, posting a comment like that will not stop anyone from smoking. why not join in the TRUTH and go talk to ciggeratte smokers that are killing themselves smoking processed chemicals, instead of easygoing growers who medicate themselves via cannibis.

last time i checked cigs were not used for ANY medical purposes....

Go save a life....... pull a cig out of a minors mouth near the local high school and scold them for it!

You getting on here posting comments like you have isnt making any difference the last time i checked.

Howardstern I agree with the above for sure, but I get the same temperament when my wife goes to night shift and I don't get to see her for 5 days. Also you may want to change your sig it's in violation of rule 17, just a heads up but not everyone here believes in the same god you do, some people don't believe in any god. Its just one of those subjects that not everyone can agree on yet everyone seems to hold steadfast opinions on.

Edited to fix typo's.

Thanks for your kind consideration.

In order to follow rule # 17 I won't reply so that a discussion of religion is not started.

Let us just live and let live - each person free to believe what he wishes.

Lisa let me start by asking you some simple questions. First I would agree with you that MJ is addictive, almost anything is anymore. Do you agree that a lot of things are addictive? Like eating, smoking cigs, chewing tobacco, caffiene, alcohol, TV, videogames, pornography, certain prescription drugs, etc etc.
I listed legal stuff for a reason. Secondly how addictive do you think MJ is? Remember less than 1% of the US population smokes everyday. I also know that people go to rehab for MJ, how many do you think are there cause they ARE NOT court ordered? Do you believe it is a gateway drug? Have you ever smoked. if so did you not like it or have a problem with it? Has MJ ever killed anyone directly that you know of? Remember their have been kids who dies cause they were so addicted to videogames that they have had seizures and died, seriously. Do you think not controlling it makes it harder or easier for children and adults to get? Do you know what cannabinoids or the endocannibinoid system are?

I can get you some non biased numbers when we get to that point, I promise. I know you didn't mean to be a jerk, and I was to a point in my first post, I apologize, but you need to understand a lot of us get judged everyday for it, and it's nothing compared to alcohol. I'm an alcoholic and that was hell for me...almost destroyed my life and getting sober was so hard and my body did get some withdrawal physically and mentally. I had a friend help me and her name was Mary, I now have a house and my own business and am much happier and feel 100 times better. I haven't been sick once since I quit, not once. I also smoke cigs and they kill you, and they are legal and some statistics say they are harder to quit than HEROIN. MJ is a scapegoat, and the Drug War is a farce IMO.

Also do you know the history of the criminalization of MJ, the racist angle, how about the fact that Anslinger might have been tight with the DuPont's and Hearst and they all benefitted from it. Dupont and his synthetics which was a directly competing with hemp. Or the fact that Hearst had paper mills and wrote sensational stories about MJ to sell papers....money money money. Did you know this year the gov't will spend about 60 Billion just to fight a war, not including all the costs to convicted and house prisoners? Did you know about 70 to 80% of all that money will be aimed at MJ, it stays in the system the longest and is the 3rd most used drug in our country?

Also Lisa I will try my best to be a gentleman, as I think a lot of us should be....promise.

 

[massproducer]

I think someone has been watching reefer madness put out by the US government, lmao

 

[NorCalHal]

easy availability, cheap price and minimum legal penalties is greatly responsible for the increased usage of this drug in the past 2 decades all around the world.

Minimum legal penalties?

872,721 folks were arrested in the USA in 2007 for Marijuana Violations.

Thats folks arrested, not ticketed or fined. Arrested. Highest amount of folks EVER arrested in a single year.

And why did my earlier post get deleted?

And when we fight to legalize our Drug Czar John Walters calls it frivolous...which shows me that 60 billion and almost 1 million American citizens getting arrested is frivolous...what it really shows me is that the gov't could give a crap about it's own citizens and they are taking advantage of all of us that use and/or pay taxes.

 

[SmokinMom]

And why did my earlier post get deleted?

Because we aren't gonna talk politics here either.

And yes, snuggles is always a gentleman.

We've had folks like lisa on these forums as well. And they've not been as polite either. She gets props for that. Be kind to her guys.

Exactly, she camer back and answered us, took some guts so give her some slack

 

[Fadeux]

Stop feeding the trolls guys, even if this "Lisa" does mean what she says, she really has no business here, other than to piss us off...

 

[Ilikebigbuds]

She is getting a rise out of the MP members isn't she?

threads like this one here, is why I keep coming back to this site,

I get a good laugh and some times a giggle, but this thread!

well... lets just say it caught my attention for many reasons including the above mentioned>LOL


you all have a great time, and I am so enjoying the contrast!!!

Thank you so much for the same.

It's too bad we have destroyed so many trees including those in Rain Forests making paper. We could have grown MJ on an annual basis that grow in one year planting seeds and could have saved so many of those valuable trees and many irreplaceable trees. That Hearst guy could have helped the environment by just making his paper out of hemp.

Yeah, those pharaceuticals also have caused much harm in pushing their man-made poisons on us.

Edited to erase because I dont want to feed the trolls... (sorry, I was hammered... )

While the original poster has a right to her opinion her facts are way off. In my 53 years of life I have never known anyone that couldn't 'kick the habit' nor do I know anyone to smoke a doob and say "hey! let's try heroin!"
She could not be further from reality guys/gals. We already knew that though. I laughed at what her perception of it's effects are.

Fact:
Marijuana never cured anything, it helps the brain by "distracting" it from the source of the pain. I shall use myself as an example. I have a medical condition recognized by the US Governmet as a legit reason to use it. I find myself a lot of times thinking of the pain and it becomes overwhelming. After I medicate I find myself not thinking about the pain as much. Does it still hurt? Absolutely. Am I concentrated on the area of pain? No, I am not.

Marijuana has no characteristics of being a dangerous addiction. Many people including myself have stopped for a limited time, or just plain decided to not smoke any longer.

Marijuana was in fact used for centuries as medicine. Still is for that matter. By products of marijuana supply some of the strongest rope available and also some pretty cool clothing items.

Reports long held from the public are coming to light once again. Marijuana has been proven to help kill cancer cells as well as help to prevent them from forming.

I could go on and on, but I think the boss might object. Have a great day folks!

Ok fine. But how could an employee have a great day if every time the fear of being caught through random drug testing and being fired lingers in their mind? Am I wrong again? To have a great day the first thing to focus is to legalize marijuana.

To have a great day,
Need to say,
The mind should be without fear,
while holding Marijuana so near.
It is like walking in the air
with big bud or purple weed or white widow with reddish orange hair.
This is what marijuana user say
from their real experience everyday.

I am not a poet though somehow these few lines came to my mind and I thought of putting up here.

All thats happening here is .......

cooool everyone do the robot

[Kupunakane]

WOW,
Here I didn't think that this would get so outta hand. I am a bit surprised that so many did turn into trolls over this.
Grandma used to say if you put a stick into it, and stir up the crapola, all you would accomplish would be adding stink to the room. I think she was right.
Most of the heads that I have ever known were gentle and kind folks, and would accept Lisa's feelings as far as mj goes. We might be pretty stead-fast in our disagreement of her opinion, but the fact remains that it is her opinion, and we have a choice as to how we choose to respond.
I like the way snuggles is starting to approach the topic. I agree that perhaps we should carefully enlighten Lisa, explain the History, the medical value, as Stoner94043 has put it, and yes we need to stop feeding the trolls.
Picture 012.jpg
Now I am of a firm belief that there is never an excuse for anything less than gentlemanly behavior, even in the face of adversity. Kind action will always turn away harsh tongues, and if you must do something to an enemy real or supposed, than be kind to them as it is like heaping coals upon their heads.
and in the end, remember the goal is to
SMOKE IN PEACE
