    I do not smoke it.

    Why not?
    Because I don't want to end up making incredibly stupid and mind blowing threads about mass motherships. Also it is illegal here.

    I guess i'm for legalisation as weed does less harm to you than alcohol.

    i do not smoke it, it won't be legal for me to do so for another 2 years. After that i might consider some weed tea, better for the lungs. i am pro-legislation.

    Haha do not make me laugh ijffdrie!

    OnT: I drank this in Estonia, tasted funky and you could buy it in any store there just like coca cola (which is actually made from coca-plants so drinking this is actually less "drugish"). Nice Ice tea :)

    No.

    Don't drink (at all), don't smoke. I simply don't enjoy getting dumbed down.

    For/against legalisation??
    For legalisation.

    I don't smoke at all, but I think that legal weed is a good thing. Why? Because if it's illegal, you put it into the same category as cocaine and other hard drugs. In that case it's much more easy for people to use those, much worse, drugs as well.

    Just look around here in Holland. People smoking a joint cause little to no trouble at all, and aren't looked down upon. But in countries where it's illegal, you are " scum" when you smoke it, and people will think that you most likely participate in other criminal /illegal activities. At least that's the impression I'm getting.

    I say: let people who lie weed have their fun, and let it be legal so they don't have to go into the criminal circuit, where they'll come into contact with much worse stuff.

    If you make something illegeal, it jsut makes people want it more. Take prohibition in the US 1930's, illegeal Japanese anime porn, hard drungs etc etc. And they are just as willing to break the law to get whatever illegeal thing they want. But on the other hand, make things like weed legeal and you get a free society like Amsterdam where you can eat hass cookies, drink hask drinks and smoke it wherever you want. So you get more stoned people in the streets which makes the place look bad.

    So both sides of the coin here have a bad side. So I think weed should be like alcohol. There would be a blood weed limit you can't be over to drive. And many jobs would not allow you to smoke and work too. I think half way between illegeal and totally free is the best option.

    And to answer the questions.

    I don't smoke it.
    And because I'm poor and would rather spend my money on things like SC2, ipads and presents for my best friend.

    The8shark... have you actually ever been to Amsterdam?
    All the high people hang out in museums, not on the streets. :p

    But seriously, it's not even half as bad as what most movies and stuff suggest.
    Also funny how people always mention Amsterdam, as if it's some separate country. There's just as much of the stuff being sold in Maastricht and stuff, but nobody gives a rat's *** about that. ^^

    Brownies are better.

    I'm for decriminalization.

    Never tried it, probably never will. Yet I'm all in for the legalization.

    Like I said, brownies are better.

    And the preferred term is decriminalization.

    The illegality of it, like many other lame laws, stems from racial reasons. It was the cig of choice for black jazz musicians in the Harlem era. It was 100% legal before that, hence decriminalization.

    Okay let's not buy the mainstream blabber about weed and alcohol dumbing you down. You need to consume a lot over a long period of time to degrade you. Casual use is nowhere near as damaging. And by that I don't try to make it sound better... sure even casual use is bad for you but then so is a walk on the street with heavy traffic.

    I don't smoke weed regularly because it has an awful taste, smell, and it can burn you badly.

    Ark, I don't think you can take a drag and still have your thc level below "safe for public" level, so that wouldn't work. As for you saying you're poor, I don't know about prices where you live but over here if we share .5 among the 4 of us it works out to about 3 euros. That's the price of 3 beers.

    Use to smoke a lot, very rarely now.

    For decriminalisation obviously.

    I didn't mean permanent dumbing down. Even the temporary one will do.

    To kuvasz:
    Fair enough. Maybe you're right. I just had an idea. Takes a heap of bad ones to get a good one :). And today 3 euros = about $4.30 Australian. And well that even I could afford. But being able to stop at that amount that's the catch.

    I used to be a marijuana smoker, but I kicked it out last month. Why, Because it's too damn expensive for a joint of weed. 50 MYR only last for 16 Hours. Second? It because it contribute/encourage to my cigarettes habit, Let's say if I smoked cigarettes 4 stick a day, after having a blunt, it make me smoke 2 packs of cigarettes a day. So I'm done with cigarettes, and done with weed or marijuana. But I do like things when I'm high, I like to play instrument whenever I'm high, Because IT'S HOT AND KICKING ***. :laugh: :wacko:

    Nope, never have, never will.
    My old drummer used to use it for inspiration, so he only smoked it once in a while.
    However, there are a lot of people here who smoke it almost everyday, so yes they're addicted.
    All they do is sit in the garage, haha.
