jpdocdave Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 I can play that game too........... :brows: :brows: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNDZg4BCy2w enjoy i like the video, and i agree about all these prescription drugs. i didn't play a game, i posted a video of a song, i used to know all the words to, made by people who obviously use the drug :D i doubt weed can cure osteoperosis, heart disease, erectile disfunction and so on, not really relevant there. and i do think there's debate on medicinal uses. my downside is legalizing it in general to everyone will make it more accesible for people and children that may not have otherwised done so. i could go post a ton of youtube videos about how bad it is, and people telling personal stories how it ruined their life, but i won't waste my time, whats the point. our country is in a downward spiral and has been for decades, no signs of improvement. it would not be a positive turn for our country. our country is going down the moral crapper, and maybe most here are too young to realize it, i'm not very old, almost 30 and just started to realize this not too long ago. our morals are gone.

summerinmaine Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Not directed to anyone in particular: I agree that legitimate arguments can be made on both sides of the debate over the legalization of drugs, but I think that the social cost of criminalization far outweighs the cost of legal drug use. I also think that the argument that pot has "no proven medical value" is a canard. For decades the Feds have actively suppressed any legitimate scientific inquiry into the medical benefits/long-term effects of pot, so for them to complain in the face of state decriminalization efforts that there is no "proof" of medical value strikes me as the ultimate in hypocrisy. In addition, the FDA has largely taken a hands-off approach to the entire genre of herbal supplements. They need not be proven either safe or effective, but simply must make no specific medical claims. The Feds simply go after all the herbal supplements that are "fun" to take. What I also find incredibly ironic is that, most often, it seems to be the folks who profess to be for "small government, low taxes, stay out of our business affairs" who are more than happy to allow the government to regulate what consenting adults can put into/do with our bodies. Why the disconnect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
