Should Pot be Legalized?

It takes a mere second for treasure to turn to trash.

I can agree with that, if someone wants to destroy their body/lives or just take the edge off with meth or heroin that's their choice.


If people don't find that respectable it then...so what? Not like people who go that far off the rails would ever become President at the same time or anything, if they don't rehabilitate or control themselves at all ever then they just become the kind of gutter trash that already exists and will always exist.
(Don't mean to imply that anyone that goes off the rails on drugs is a bad person or anything there)

Encourage them to get clean but don't give them free healthcare and the problem sorts itself out. Fine line between allowing people to take drugs and completely being an enabler.


Almost as if people think that in the event we legalized things like this that we'd have public speakers taking a moment to shoot up on live TV, children would be doing lines in the playground and that society would collapse within days.

People don't not take drugs just because it's illegal, they are capable of understanding the negatives and not wanting them unless they're incredibly naive.


Moreover if all this stuff was legal then more research could be put in to it so perhaps heroin that wasn't so wildly addictive and dangerous could be made. And other things obviously.
You have a good insight into this IMO, Steve. It sounds harsh what I say, but, the people who do get help for their drug problem already proved that they are worth saving. Nobody has succumbed to drugs until it takes their life, there is always a way back. Maybe not to what you used to have. But to try to live a normal life. I admire the courage and dedication it took for people I know that were addicts to turn their life around. We look down on them and judge, but we're so shallow that we can't even recognize half of the time the things that precipitated their usage of drugs. What led them there. And how they got help. It's not what breaks you, it's what you do after when you've already been broken.

Also PP, while we can't talk about that kind of stuff and I'm also not personally interested in taking painkillers like tramadol. Only specifically Kratom for its unique herbal qualities. The DEA, well, it upset me greatly. The ban is not in place though. They extended the deadline for public comment, which I encourage you to do as I did with that link I posted to my thread on DBZF, and tell the DEA what it did for you and how it helped you. Seriously. This is the first time it has EVER happened with the DEA that they were going to emergency Schedule I a substance and then received SO much backlash from the public and from congress that they suspended the ban. There is currently no set date to ban Kratom and we have until Dec. 1st to make our voices heard on a relatively benign substance with great medicinal properties.

So, currently, at least for the foreseeable future... still unscheduled, completely legal. The DEA will take some time to come up with a verdict after they read ALL the hundreds of thousands of testimonies from people like me all the way up to House minority leader Nancy Pelosi and her son who runs the American Kratom Association. I urge you to send something in to the DEA. The link is on the web somewhere, I'd link it but I honestly don't remember where I found it exactly!

Anyway, sorry for the off topic.

I honestly have a hard time believing that smoking weed is all that beneficial like being cancer curing and preventing brain cell loss.

Medical Marijuana is widely used for those exact reasons, though. It's been proven to prevent and alleviate a variety of diseases, conditions, and illnesses.

You ever question why it's sold at stores instead of at hospitals, and on top of that, being changed from medical to rec?

It's not being changed from medical TO recreational. Recreational use is being added to it's legality.

And lol at cannabis not being addictive.

Not true. Several states are ridding medical stores in replacement of rec. because of lack of regulation.

Places that are changing from medical to recreational (a handful) are changing because they were already leaning towards recreational beforehand. Other states that allowed it and the DEA not cracking down gave a domino effect on the rest of the states

I dunno, just kept up with the news I guess. For example California was already very heavily leaning towards recreational marijuana. They voted on it once before and the keep it banned side won since the old folks really came out to vote against it and it was still close. They won this time around all the while medical was already legal.

Obama also recommended the DEA not pursue in states where it's been legalized. So yeah.

Well okay. That happened here in Washington too I suppose. But I think lack of regulation has a role as well.

Right on the money. Cannabis isn't physically addictive, but it's one of the most mentally addictive substances out there. If you feel the need to smoke weed just to get through your day, you have a problem, despite how much you attempt to convince people otherwise.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

Almost entirely depends on the person though doesn't it?

If you feel like you need it to get through the day then you have other problems it's not really the drug.

Everyone I know who smokes pot does so almost daily. I've known several people who have smoked pot throughout their entire day every day. I'm not sure what else to call it, unless 90% of people who smoke pot have the exact same mental problem.
