Static Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Here we are.Half-past three in the morning.Wide awake.I can't get no sleep. I only smoke weed when I need to, and I need to get some restyeah, where's the sex. I confess.I burned a hole in the matress, yes yes it was me. I plead guilty. and at the count of three i pull back the duvet.Make my way to the refridgerater, one dry potata inside.no lie, not even bread, jam, when the light above my head went bam.I can't sleep, something's all over me, greasy, insomnia please release me.and let me dream about making mad love on the heath.Tearin' off tights with my teeth.But there's no relief, i'm wide awake and i'm lonely.Oh, if i could only get some sleep.I can't get no sleep. Faithless - Insomnia (reverance version) I want you to read this whole piece before judging it, from top to bottom. If you do not, you will miss the entire point I'm trying to get across. If you don't want to read, leave the thread. Marijuana isn't bad for you in moderation. Drug's generally cause desirable effects on the brain at a psychoative level. They alter chemical levels in your brain which cause your brain to function abnormally for a certain amount of time. The difference between drugs like Cocaine and Marijuana is that once you take in enough cocaine, the psychoactive in cocaine, through a series of reactions, elevates the dopamine levels in your brain, and having such elevated levels over periods of time causes the body to slowly make less, because you are supplying it with large doses, it is adapting to the change. It causes addiction when the user gets depraved of cocaine, because the body does not make enough to cause the user to feel excitement, even during moments that would spur large amounts of naturally made dopamine to be created. Marijuana is not like that, it releases THC into the brain, a foreign chemical which only does anything to humans because we have receptoras which can pick it up and cause the altered state of mind that marijuana does. It does not mess around with natural brain function, it does not cause dependancy because it does not cause gradual deprevation of a naturally made chemical, and the only serious dangers to it are the actual smoking of it, the smoke damaging the lungs (which can be resolved with a water bong or a breathilizer), and the heat from the smoke causing other side effects that smokers regularly get, coughs, itches, etc... In other words, when those teachers in middle school told you not to do drugs, they told you because they want to promote civil order, they want people to stay away from experiences which cause altered state of mind. They will tell you that marijuana is 4 times worse than tobacco. The truth is, Tobacco is laced with hundreds upon hundreds of chemicals, many of which only exist in there to keep users buying their product, even against their will. Cocaine, Heroin (Opiates), Ectasy, Methanphetamines, those are the things you ought to avoid, for those either add severely poisonous substances or mess with natural function of the brain. Marijuana, alcohol, Hallucinogens, generally, these will all be safe (with side effects of course, but even legal medicine has those) if you take them in moderate quantity, in both individual uses, and in overall usage. And seriously, for those of you ignorant to trying, and those who think that stoners must be morons for doing what they do,at least open up your mind and stop thinking of them as dumber people. I know a stoner that is smarter than you, who understand reality better than you, and is more tolerant than you, for he would not pass judgment on a group of people without precedent cause and evidence thereof. All I really want the reader to get out of this is a more open mind, I'm not going to say to do these things, but at least understand that drugs are not inherent evils, that law does not define what is inherent evil, and that in your lifetime, you may choose your path, but all in all, tolerance will make your path so much more fufulling.

Static Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 @ Pika: ^ he said it. That whole anime thing was completely copied from the internet. The T Rex thing, that was also completely copied from the internet. None of it holds any relevance to me whatsoever. However, I don't see how people can be so ignorant to say that smoking weed actually makes you braindead, what it does is allow you to experience life through a different perspective. Fh-Fh; Since when did the law stop anyone from commiting a civil offense? Only idiots get caught with marijuana on them, and its not the pots fault for the initial stupidity they held before they became stoners. Laws don't really matter unless you get to the point of being punished for them anyway. Phantasy, I know people who smoke weed for reasons that perhaps you're too blind to understand. Change of perspective allows new vision, new thought, and the sharing of new ideas is what society is in essence, so its fair to say that pot doesn't actually hurt society at all. Not all reasons are stupid, admittedly the classic "I wanna feel highhhhhhhh" one is, the "Change in perception" one really isn't, its simply adding an experience to what you are aware of, which in turn, progresses life. Perhaps you have not been exposed to people who do things for knowledge of self and the world, so you cannot make a fair judgment. Stereotyping of any sort doesn't help natural perception by any means, to judge all potheads as people who are doing something stupid just makes you ignorant.

Jesus Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 ITT: Stupidity. Drugs are bad period. The only time an illegal drug should be used is when it is nessecary to save a life. Marijuanna, Cocaine, anything that can go into your body that does not help you in any way only hinders your chance of living. Want to know what happens when you get high? You do stupid things. My older brother is in prison right now because he tried to kill my family because he did too many drugs. Don't be an idiot. If you do drugs, your going to ruin your life. You only have 1 life. Don't screw it up. If you screw up things now, your life in Hell because you decided to commit a sin because you did drugs are not gonna be any better.

Dark Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I think all kinds of smoking should be legal, but illegal in public places.

Probably not if your father is a doctor, but caffeine is a drug. It's true in large doses drugs are bad, but many drugs in small doses have useful effects. I'm not advocating LSD or anything like that, but drugs aren't always dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
