True they get a big profit from cigs,but think about it how long have cigs been around right.They have been around for a century,indians brought us the tabacco and people been smoking ever since.

yeah, they'll never outlaw cigarettes. There's just WAY too much money in that, and the government has their hands in that.
I really do wish the FDA would regulate the amount of drugs that come out that are causing all these crazy side effects. I'm sick of seeing these commercials - the list of side effects is long and sometimes they're pretty bad. The sad thing is that people see these commercials for Paxil and all them other ones and go tell their doctor, "I need that," then a lot of times the doctor will prescribe them the drug just because either they're making money off it or they're scared that if something happens to the patient they're gonna get sued. It's pretty sad. I don't even like taking aspirin for headaches. I don't take cough medicine at all. Last time I took Nyquil I lost my voice for 2 weeks.
Wow did I veer off topic ;)
Weed has never killed anyone, as was shown before. When's the last time you saw a violent pothead? People get drunk and do stupid shit that gets them or others hurt or killed, weed'll make you do stupid shit but nothing violent. Just stuff that makes people laugh at you. And isn't laughing good for the soul?

Hi all,
I agree with most comments :^)
Quote:

Well maybe not - but they have already outlawed smoking them, LoL!
Soon the only place you will be able to smoke tobacco, in this country, is in your private residence or automobile (and not in the presence of any minors) or outdoors.
Municipal/regional governments are talking about passing bylaws restricting outdoor-smoking within their jurisdictions, too...
For the record:
Alcohol is water-soluble; is excreted from the body by water-soluble means (urine, blood, exhaled air) and all traces are gone within 24 - 36 hours.
THC is fat-soluble (and insoluble in water).
It builds up in the body, and is excreted slowly.
It collects in fatty tissues within the body, notably the brain and the gonads.
If a test was developed for roadside detection of THC-impaired driving (note: any Toker will tell you, weed does not impair their driving!) then a major Police objection to decriminalization of weed would be overcome.
Weed would be decriminalized already in Canada, except for heavy pressure from our friends the Americans. They have promised to make a mess of the Border and any quick easy border crossings...
Well maybe, since they have recently fooked up the Border anyway, this argument will carry less merit in Canada as time passes and the U.S. gets more & more paranoid...
Anyway, I tell ya, this tobacco-ban shit has really fooked up going to concerts!
Ya can't even burn a spliff at concerts anymore, because you stick out like the proverbial sore thumb ;^(
Man it's bullshit...
I've smoked a lotta shit at some of The Best, LoL
OK for example:
Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon World Tour, Hamilton Ontario, 1972.
Supertramp, Maple Leaf Gardens Toronto (both nights), 1976
And, Rush - they used to play the Gardens every New Year's Eve like clockwork... makes me cough just thinkin' about it :^) LoL
A little weed never hurt a soul. You won't find tokers pukin' in the parking lot or punching each other out, at 2AM! They are home watching movies (and munching snacks).
BTW I've got a real nice XviD copy of the recent Reefer Madness release on DVD. What a film!
Y'all should rent the DVD and checkout this guy 'Grandpa Ganja' who has a hilarious 30 minute film included on the DVD.
He's fantastic (and even older than I :^)
Check him out:
http://www.grandpaspotbook.com/
Anyway, you probably can't have Americans runnin' around all smoked up - they've all got guns!
Yeah, you laugh - but George, he ain't laughing...

This was true for me at first, but after years of heavy smoking (and other drug useage, which I actually think had a little more to do with it), I'd zone out at red lights and not notice when they'd turn green, I'd be coming up to a red light and stop, not noticing that the light turned green before I got there, just stupid things like that. I'd drive really slow too, whereas when drunk I used to drive really fast, so driving stoned is not as dangerous as driving drunk, although sober is the safest of course.

yeah I agree 100% squizzle. After a while it became pretty aparent its not very smart to drive on weed if you smoke alot. I'd rather have a few beers and drive than smoke weed and drive, but you really shouldn't do either

Three men are sitting in a room smoking cannabis. After a few spliffs, they run out of gear. One of the men stands up and says, "Look, there's loads more tobacco. I'll just nip into the kitchen and make one of my speciality spliffs."
So off he goes into the kitchen where he takes some Cumin, Turmeric and a couple of other spices from the spice rack, grinds them all up and rolls them into a huge spliff.
On his return, he hands it to one of his smoking partners who lights it and takes a long drag. Within seconds he passes out.
Ten minutes go by and he's still out cold, so the others decide to take him to hospital. On arrival the nurses immediately take him to intensive care.
A doctor returns to the friends and asks, "So what have you been doing then? Drugs?"
"Well sort of," replies one of the guys, "but we ran out of gear, so I made a home-made spliff."
"Ahh," replies the doctor, "And what did you put in it?"
"Oh, just a bit of cumin, some turmeric, and a couple of other spices."
The doctor sighs. "Well that explains it."
"Why, what's wrong with our friend?" asks one of the men.
Replies the doctor, "He's in a korma."

Ok, so it's getting late (4am) and we're all pretty wasted, Your's truly get voted to go and make some drinks. I carefully write down what everyone wants (too hammered to remember) and make my way into the kitchen. I take great care to make all the drinks the way they were requested. One black coffee, 2 sugars, 1 Tea, white, no sugar.....etc....
It must have taken all the brain power I had left to make these drinks because I wandered back into the living room carrying the milk.
"Where's the drinks stoner?"
Hmmmm, I honestly didnt know. So I carried the milk back into the kitchen and checked the counter by the kettle.....no drinks.
Hmmmm.
So I opened the fridge to put the milk back and .....
OMG there were the drinks ... all lined up in the fridge .... how the f**k did that happen.
To this day I still dont know.
Needless to say I quit the happy baccy not long after.
:o)-~

@ Squizzle,
I know what your saying, matey. it was only meant in jest. i aint a user any more, only messed about with for a short time. I never took it long enough for it to 'take hold' but like you say, ive seen many people succumb to its evil grip too. im lucky in that ive got my Mrs. & kids round me to keep me sane & on the right track. i know many people who mess around with drugs arent so happy with their home life & are looking for something else. have you lost any friends to drugs then? i lost a mate who'd started off partying in his late teens like we all did & it went a bit too far. He died of a heroin overdose, aged 23. that was enough to tell me to call it a day.

wow, I'm sorry about your loss. I haven't lost any friends to drugs yet, but some have gone on to smoking crack, being complete losers to the max. A couple of my friends have tried heroin, haven't got any friends that got hooked though.
When I was a teenager, my friends and I used to all hang out together, like 20 of us riding our bikes around causing trouble, just being kids you know. Then coke came into the picture, my friends started breaking off into their own little groups, getting into fights with each other over stupid stuff, and some of my friends have been doing coke for 10 years on a daily basis, although I wouldn't really call them my friends anymore. I still see them sometimes, but that's depressing. It's amazing the things they will do just to support their habits.

it seems a long time since we lost Matt now, but i always try & remember the good times you know? before it went like, serious drugs. when we were just going out on a friday & saturday night, some good tunes, a few beers and a few lines/pills/whatever. i miss them times, but i know you can never get them back.
on the subject of weed though, i was never a big fan. all i can work out is that most of my mates who smoked weed regularly went on to smoke other, harder stuff. not saying that everyone goes down that path though, i know most people are content sticking to weed. But in my experience, it can lead on to more nastier drugs.
