Learn before you judge.

*shrugs* You said one thing, but when it would not change people's mind, you said it was for people who knew nothing about weed. Just wondering which it was.

No reason to be so defensive, lol.

I think Mikey's hoping that education about the topic from more than the usual sources will help broaden the opinions of usage of weed. He probably hopes it will change some minds, but if it doesn't, hopefully it will at least make someone think about the topic from a different angle. Please don't hold his lack of eloquence against his noble intentions. : )

[MikeyG]

LOL hraes right. Im not all intelligent and don't have superior knowledge of the subject there fore cannot answer everything people ask. But his reason is exactly what I had intended with posting the video.

[Spirit]

Ever wonder if you could become intelligent and actually post what you mean...... I mean if you weren't most when you were high?

[MikeyG]

And now can mods get infractions for insulting other members? come the fuck on.

I mean if you weren't most when you were high?

Or atleast make some sense if your attempting to insult me.

[Spirit]

I have not insulted you. Calm down. I am merely repeating what YOU have said in THIS thread. And make fun of my typos, so what. I could point out about 100 you have made in this thread.

In the post above my last one you admitted that you were not intelligent and that you did not have superior knowledge. Further on up you admitted that most of the time you are posting on this forum you are high. I am just asking if you think maybe the two go hand in hand.

All part of the great debate on how pot does/does not affect your thinking.

I used your own words against you. Words that you said about yourself and you get pissy. If you want to bring it up, prepare to back it up.


And I do not have to insult you. You are doing that yourself. You just don't see it.

I think I'd come down fairly in the middle.


I do believe the use of marjiuana is fairly demonized by most all media and official government. Misuse, and not the substance itself lies at the core of what is a dividing issue. Our other legal 'drugs' such as caffeine, nicotine, alcohol (and for some prescription/over-the-counter medicine) as such are also 'fairly' chemically-addictive and/or psychologically but legal never the less. There are people who would benefit from its medical-use, people who would otherwise suffer needlessly.


But there's also the other side, that beneath the rational reasoning that it shouldn't be as bad as it's made out to be, there are the negative consequences and outcomes. People who object to usage of marijuana would have no ground on which to object if there weren't some real horror-stories. People do start marijuana as a first-step kind of drug which leads to harder ones which I think most of us can agree aren't quite so pleasant. People do learn to become dependent and not everyone handles it in quite the same way.

lrva and I share the same thought.

It's down to the individuals. The laws were designed to protect the whole community. They're not always perfect but that's what a democracy is for. The laws do change with time, in fact.

As of now, people constantly abuse drugs, e.g. marijuana, so it's fair to criminalise its use.

Then again, you wonder why alcohol is legal while the trail of social and personal devastation it cases is more or less similar to pot, comparatively speaking.

[MikeyG]

First off, I've never seen the reason I've gotten infractions either
so can you see how maybe you could have insulted me without realizing?
Second off I never fucking stood there and said that I am un-intelligent. If i was I dont think I could even be typing to you. I said and meant I am not all knowing, I do not have vast information on many subjects like someone like hrae, as I'm still young and havent learned everything ofcourse.

Yeah Im baked right now and still see the fuckin bullshit your pumping out.
Comon spirit you know your just loving the chance to insult me.

Two and two go in hand?

Take an already stupid person and give them weed, there already fuckin dumb and weed didnt cause it ( and no im not talking about myself )

Just like if you take a person whos lazy and doesnt wanna get a job
give em pot, its not weed thats making them like that, there gunna be lazy anyways. And im not making fun of any fuckin grammar except when im being insulted and I cant understand whats being said to me.

And yet you sit here and pick out my small flaws instead of seeing the big picture.

[Spirit]

You just said it all right there Mikey. Number 1 by totally NOT getting what I was saying.

It was a Serious question. I think a lot of people have put in their posts how pot affect our thought process.

Take it as an insult if you want.

Or you could have turned it into a great debate. But, meh, why think about it, when get pissed is so much easier.

Do you know why Hrae can actually debate this topic better than you?

Has nothing to do with age or knowledge.

He actually takes the time to read the posts and thinks about what is being said and looks at multiple views. Then he actually thinks about what he types in response. He does not jump into anger-mode and go off in a rage.

He and I do not always share the same views, but at least I can debate with him. And neither of us go off the handle.


Enjoy Mikey.

Think what you want, I was trying to give you a debatable topic, but hell you are just proving my point.

[Blaaaaaaaah]

Please, keep a debate going or do not post. It is going off topic.
