    I love how NORML honks make you be either in or out. I come in here and first talk about how poor drug education is, state I am NOT against decriminalization, point out problems created by current mar1juana laws and am treated as an adversary for pointing out BS.

    I don't think you've comprehended any part of his posts. You're just regurgitating your own talking points over and over - are you running for office?

    You've obviously never bought drugs, and are basing your moronic argument on stereotypes. If a person isn't harming you, why do you care if this person smokes pot and later on in life ends up snorting coke? Its completely irrelevant.

    Not really look at this one


    Besides the to terrible analogies I repeated that the thing that is "special" about mar1juana is that it is used and sold in the same circles with more dangerous drugs. I am not the guy ring the "gateway drug" bell, I just want to point out it exists.

    And on the harmless argument I just told him to stop down playing it to make his point.

    I've got nothing more to say really. Donny made his position perfectly clear. If his explanation (or JayZ's rewording) failed to lessen your zombie approach to this topic, I'm not terribly keen on exposing myself to the same frustration.

    Ahh two haters with nothing to add and the typical, "this is my last post" bit. Well done.

    There's nothing to add. Donny did our work for us.

    Oh judge! Your damn laws! The good people don't need them, and the bad people don't obey them.

    Vitamin Pills would be considered a "gateway drug" if they made it illegal.

    I never get the logic behind gate way drugs, the only argument is Weed dealers also typically carry other harder drugs and would probably try to peddle them to you. But the only reason weed is even associated with harder drugs is because the Gov't made it illegal so you can only get it from shady dealers who also deals more addictive substance.

    Agreed, his arguments were weaker than usual and closer to your level.

    As a non-weed smoker, non-alcohol drinker, non-cigarette smoker, I don't understand why people are sticking to most of these talking points.

    Who cares if it's harmful to your body and a gateway drug? You can make the same case for alcohol and cigarettes. Pot heads should stop trying to prove that smoking mar1juana is somehow great for your health and make the opposition prove that it is somehow significantly worse for you than legal drugs.

    No i didn't. Weed is not harmless. Gateway effect is not a conspiracy.

    Because you have to be a believer that weed is some miracle drug that everyone should do or you are not accepted.

    Pretty much how the drug topic always goes which is why we have programs that tell kids weed = crack

    So, you've been subjected to a drug "education" program ... but have you ever actually inhaled weed?

    You think the education system is doing a good job in this area? does one test case sway your belief?

    Well, screw this. I just asked you a direct question and you refused to answer it.

    basso mode.

    You're not interested in honest debate.
