I know what you meant when you said "healthy" majority.

I never said that anything that "feels good" should be permitted, but that you need to have very good reasons why sonething should be banned. You not liking it is not a good reason. The fact that it isn't the wisest thing to do is also not a good reason, as people have a right to make unwise decisions, as long as it doesn't concern others (and the choice to smoke, drink, use marijuana is personal, and it doesn't concern anyone else). If marijuana were legal, it would obviously be illegal to drive while using it, or to smoke in publc.

The reason why I don't drink or smoke or use drugs is because I don't think I'd like it. In the case of smoking it would be terrible at first, and then I'd get addicted to the nicotine and help the evil greedy tabaco companies get rich. In the other 2 cases, I don't like the ideea of beinf drunk or high and not being fully aware of what I'm doing (I'd use marijuana if a doctor ever reccomeded it for medical purposes though). I don't find these things pleasurable, but if other people like these things it's not my place to tell them otherwise (provided they don't break the law of course).

The whole "I've seen families fall appart due to drinking" is a weak argument. I've seen families fall appart due to one of the sposes (or both) being a workaholic. Does that mean working should be outlawed? Families can fall appart due to practically anything.

Also, condomless sex really is all that . And LOL @ the drunk messaging. What kind of things would you say when you were drunk?


When I talk families fall apart I am talking violence and sexual activities brought on by drinking. Personally a friend of mine assualted me because I took his drink away, he then proceeded to yell at everyone around after he took a leak in the parking lot. He turned more violent saying people were looking at his junk. He was swinging his arms like a mad man and people were running away and/or laughing.

Another of my friends was drunk and we went out to McDonalds. While we were their he started hitting on one of the girls working in the resteraunt. He was yelling "You know you want my dick" and at one point tried following her into the kitchen. Me and two other friends grabbed him and returned him to the table. But he kept yelling and screaming sexual things to the girls working their. Finally we pulled him our of the McDonalds and brought him home.

I've watched stories on the news about molestations and rapes occuring when the guy was drunk. Then later on the guy was so hammered he blacked out and didn't remember a thing. Then theirs also been murders when someone goes nuts after getting drunk. Suicides caused because alcohol increases emotions and makes the depressed person even more depressed to the point they kill themselves.

Just watch Cop's or the news. Hundreds of stories about drunk people hurting innocent bystanders.

What if we never pulled my friend out of the McDonalds and prevented him from going back into the kitchen following the girl? What could he have done? He was blitzed out of his brains. Or my other friend who punched and attacked me for taking his drink then tried attacking other people?

I also know several friends who think they can drive drunk, sure what they do to themselves is okay but drinking makes you dillusional.

Drinking kills so many people and ruins so many lives. Even the people I know who drink would do terrible things drunk. Nothing good comes from getting drunk and it can't lead to anything good. So why should it be legal?

Hey man do you have any tips on how to acquire weed? If I have friends that I know smoke weed should I just ask where they get it or if I can buy some off of them or what's the best way? Thanks.

Are you serious? 



Here is the most recent US poll on MJ legalization from The Economist

http://www.economist.com/node/18118857?story_id=18118857

The most interesting thing about this to me is how that the younger you are the more likely you are to support MJ legalization in the US. What this means is, as more elderly people die, the more likely Marijuana will be legalized because there are less people likely to vote no.

lol, no our free space is whats going to make Canada rich. All the farmland that is currently unused, all the huge forests, moutaints with minerals, fresh water and oil. Our countries sitting pretty with such a small population to support that is pure profit for everyone in our country.

That being said we only have almost 34-million people. If a country like the US or Russia decided to invade us for our resources we'd be pretty screwed. However everyone will want our resources so I have a feeling Birtian and the EU would want a peice too if the US invaded, if Russia invaded the rest of the world would come to our aid.

In other words our country will be damn rich in a few years, if someone tries to invade other countries who want our resources will come to our aid.

Only problem is Canada won't know who its legitamit allies are and who are the ones using us for our resources. Sorta like how a rich guy doesn't know who to trust, who likes him for who he is and who wants him for his money!

WOW, I hope you guys don't turn into paranoics.

Going back over your posts it seems you have already tried weed so.

 It never hurts to ask anyone you know who uses MJ if they know anybody that can hook you up, the worst thing they can do is tell you no. If you know enough people who use it, it probably would not take long to find.      People are often very careful about giving away names and numbers for good reason considering it is illegal in most places.
