Whenever I call my pot head friends back home they can't even keep up with the conversation, they are always forgetting what I am saying. They are really stupid actually - mainly because they've been smoking for far toolong. Do I want that for my kids? Nah.


as others have been saying, you gotta be kidding. What about alcohol?? Do you want to your kids to be alcoholics? No? Crap, lets ban alcohol again then too! And I'm sure you don't want your kids to be smokers, so lets make cigs illegal too.

ORRRRR you could do your job and be a good parent, while letting others decide what is best for themselves (and their dependents). What a freaking concept.

Marijuana? Won't that make the kids move on to the hard stuff like cigarettes, masturbation and liberalism?

As for letting others decide what is best for themselves (and their dependents) Faunaki is part of these "others" and it looks to me like she's doing exactly that kind of deciding.

It will happpen. Many states are bankrupt and more will follow. States need the tax revenue. Also there is plenty of crime out there to keep the police busy without having to bust pot users.

Nice.

I for one would love to see the stuff get legalized or at least de-criminalized. I still have a pretty dim view of other "hard drugs", Heroin and Meth in particular. However, I agree with Lou Reed's take- If you make it to 50 you should be able to do any drug you please. Add to that anyone who's lost a limb in the line of duty or something like that.

That being said, stonerdom gets old and played after a while.
