Obviously there is NOT plenty of photos for everybody.
Sure… you go ahead and stock up on the photos… I’ll just be over here on the right side of the table.
*stash, stash, stash*
Hey, is there like, a vending machine around here or something? I think I should get some drinks before I go home…
And there’s no metal detectors or searches on the way out, right? Okay. Greeeeeaaat.
Burn one down, pass it around, 10 more pounds of grass on the table…
puff puff pass… puff puff pass…..
Hey! Don’t be a bogart, man!
it looks like charros coffee table
That’s not true. charro has more than pot on her coffee table.
Coffee on her pot table.
Table on her coffee pot.
Isn’t that the pot calling the coffee black?
and the people rejoiced
Well at least things will be funny now.
Don’t say that. There is no amount of narcotic substance that would make EWAdams’ incredibly stupid LOLames funny.
Shhhhh, they’ll hear you.
I bet that room smells nice!
OMG, drugs are so bad! You people are terrible for making jokes about that!!!
Heh, I’m just kidding. I don’t really give a shit anymore. But boy in high school was I severely anti-drug & alcohol!
drugs’r bad. mmkay.
Mara-joo-ana is bad, m’kay?
Pot’s illegal so the cops can get it for free.
You can be anti-drug and alcohol without being anti personal freedom.
That’s why I don’t get anti-drug republicans, of all people, they should be pro legalization and regulation, or at least for defering authority to the states.
Well, that’s the thing. I think there are drugs that are very very bad, and nobody should have access to. But other drugs, well, everything in moderation. And if it’s legal for people to get drunk everyday, then why is it illegal to get high? Personally, I luvs me some booze, although I drink infrequently. Those are choices that people should be able to make for themselves (within reason naturally).
or you can be like me. i have never tried drugs despite having had plenty of opportunity… but it’s not because i’m anti-drug. i’ve just never had the desire. i got “high” once off painkillers and i didn’t like the loopy feeling and even though i’d just had major surgery i stopped taking them. but, i don’t judge anyone who does/has used. now if you’re a crack addict who is tweaked out 24/7 i might judge you… but if you’re a recreational pot user who smokes every once in a while i couldn’t give a shit. you’re not affecting me in anyway.
me too. that’s why i did my best to consume all the drugs and alchohol so no one else would be tempted.
You’re a real hero, Cas. We appreciate your sacrifice.
All confiscated drugs and apparatuses get smoked/used by authorities most likely.
What they don’t say is how many thousands of man-hours and hundreds of thousands of tax dollars it cost to take that 10 pounds of pot off the street, probably $50,000 worth of weed, tops. Not only that, I’m sure thats just a weekly shipment, so next week it’s business as usual. War on drugs = fail.
It looks like a gang bust, so they had it coming, and good work to law enforcement taking the douchebags off the street, looks like they had pills and coke etc. I hope those gangbangers go to jail for a long time, they’ll feel right at home there. Illegal firearms are bad m’kay, I don’t condone the violence, but if it was legal and regulated like alcohol, there would be no violence associated with weed.
That’s what I don’t get. The government loves to regulate stuff. Why not weed? Why FIGHT weed when you can CONTROL it instead? Seriously dangerous drugs, yes, they need to keep that shit off the street. Nobody on earth should be doing heroin or crack or stuff like that. But weed is no more dangerous than booze, and that’s perfectly legal (as long as you’re 21). (This is a pro-legalize it message from someone who has never actually smoked pot.)
(This is a pro-legalize it message from someone who has never actually smoked pot.)
me too. imagine the taxes… slap a 10-15% tax on pot and the gov’t could pay for their healthcare monstrosity…
From someone as religious as I am, I agree with you. What is so different than getting drunk? Maybe I don’t understand something, and I know I have no desire for any of it, but how is it different than a 5th of liquor?
I can see laws regulating it to use in the home, so not to force it on others, (contact high) but so long as you don’t interfere with the rights of others, leave people alone. Leave this thing to the individual states.
And I am totally drug ignorant, so if I’m wrong, please explain it to me. I have had morphine once, for kidney stones, and I understand the goooooooooood feeling. But I don’t see living like that all the time.
A difference is that marajuana is about 10 times as carcinogenic as tobacco, so it’s actually a fairly dangerous thing to have legal. That’s the deciding factor for me in opposing legalization.
Ok, that’s an honest response. But if you do that, then you better make french fries and other junk food illegal too. And how far do we go with regulating people’s lives? If you want to be stupid, do. Just don’t hurt others when you do. (not You, as in Katherine)
And what about Cirrhosis of the liver? How is that different than lung cancer. Keep in mind, my mother died of cancer when I was 11, 32 days after we found the cancer. I hate smoking in a way that would melt the servers if I could accurately express it.
But I am smart enough to know that as soon as it’s ok for the national govt to get in the business of controlling personal behavior, sooner or later, something you consider normal, or even part of your religious beliefs, will be on the list. We need to leave that kind of law reserved to only the things that interfere with the rights of others. Such as murder or theft.
Now, speaking your mind as to if you think it’s immoral or not, that’s a different question.
But most cigarette smokers use about 100 times as much as pot smokers, so that’s a bit misleading.
To me, the fact that most law enforcement officers think drugs should be legalized or at least decriminialized is the deciding factor. We spend millions keeping people in jail for using drugs?
Please, we should just throw them in rehab. It’s cheaper than jail, and they’re less likely to develop more criminal behaviors.
If we outlawed all things that were dangerous, only outlaws would have cars!
I have known some serious pot heads, and even they couldn’t chain smoke weed. I have seen people including my grandpa that chain smoke cigarettes to where they are lighting one as the put the other out. You smoke a blunt or a bowl or two, and you will be flipping out if you don’t stop.
When I was a trainee, learning how to install elevators, the mechanic was a serious pot head. 3-4 times a day he would disappear to his truck, and seemed incapable of working without it. I was told by those who were supposed to be in the know, that his habit was why his eyes were yellow.
I can’t stand the idea of it, nor the smell of it. But let them have their pleasure, as I have mine. Now regulating it as far as driving under the influence, that’s different.
Definitely should have the same laws as drinking. Not being stupid in public, not driving or operating heavy machinery, don’t do it at work, get help if you lose moderation.
Otherwise, let me kill myself however I chose. Its not like they are paying for my medical treatment. When they do, then I will consider their advice.
Hmmmm. Uh, errr. Yeah. About that. One reason NOT to have national health care. Some vocal group decides that pwning others on video games is bad for your health and the self esteem of the other guy, bye bye XBox.
(Just one simple example)
I think that example is a little silly.
Not too far-fetched as far as nanny-state regulation goes, but I have to admit I don’t see the connection to nationalized health care.
Nationalized healthcare is intending on doing things like taxing you for bad behavior that will cause your cost of care to rise. Taxes on soft drinks, cigarettes, sugary foods, things like that. It’s not too far of a stretch for them to start taxing things like spending too much time in front of the tv because it’s bad for your health, or taxes for driving the wrong car that makes it bad for everyone else’s health (in the opinion of the bureaucrats running it), or doing ANYTHING that could cause them to spend more money on you.
It was meant to be silly. Like explaining math by counting how many apples you have left. And yet, in some way to tree hugging mind, you know that thought has occurred to them. Like the no points in Soccer thing.
Oh, Diss. Because sooner or later someone will decide your personal behavior is bad for the nation’s health. Be it Otis Spunkmeyer muffins, or Starbucks coffee.
Or some fool decides that eggs are bad for you, then good. No bad. NO GOOD. NO BAAAAAAD.
Waaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh YOU ALLL GOING TO DIE!
Those who pay the piper call the tunes. And it may not be your choice of music.
Um, private health insurance companies are already doing this. So I have to ask: what difference does it make whether it’s a private company or the government that tells you they’re raising your rates because you have high blood pressure? Or smoke? Or are overweight? Or spend too much time online?
The private company can’t take it to the level of putting you in jail or otherwise making you life more miserable if you don’t adhere to their rules. They can just deny coverage. The federal government can and will tax you in order to modify behavior that they see as bad. And you don’t have the option of going anywhere else when that happens. You’re stuck living under draconian rules that are completely against personal liberty.
My point was that to a remarkable extent the government is already doing this (e.g. raising taxes on alcohol and cigarettes, the complete BANNING of trans-fats in NYC — did you know the guy who pulled that stunt is in charge of the CDC now?). While it’s certainly possible that they’d use “well, we’re paying for your health care so we get a say!” as a justification, it’s naive to assume they aren’t doing this already.
Unless of course you were simply suggesting that it would likely increase.
Exactly Diss. We are on the slippery slope, and the ground is starting to freeze.
That was my point, Diss. The government has already taken some of that power, now we’re essentially writing them a blank check for the rest.
When the state tax on alcohol here exceeds the amount that our state spends on DWI enforcement (police, court costs, etc), then I’ll complain. Don’t see that happening any time soon. Although we did move out of the top ten for DWI fatalities! FIrst time I think ever!
Mabsba, I don’t have a problem with taxing things that cause harm to others in the form of causing you to flip your vehicle into a crowd of people. But drinking soda, eating candy, and veging out in front of the TV are singular tasks that don’t harm anyone but you. I’ll quote Larry the Cable Guy on this one: (paraphrased) “You’ve heard about all these people suing the cigarette companies for smoking causing cancer. WEll hell, it says on the box it’ll cause cancer. I need to sue Hustler for giving me carpal tunnel syndrome!”
I said that to say this: At what point are we finally going to take a little responsibility and start acting like grown-ups, telling our overprotective parents (government) to get the hell out of our lives? I’d wager that these numbskulls in Washington who have been politicians since they were in their early 20’s and who are so out of touch that they might as well be on Mars don’t know how to live my life any better than I do.
Well, given what we spend here on diabetes and diabetes prevention, soda isn’t maybe the best example.
I guess my thought is: we need taxes (we all like roads and police and schools, except whoever that whacko was that didn’t want public schools), so why not tax the things that are bad for you? AND, this is more important, are totally unnecessary? If you’re going to use sales taxes (not arguing pro or con here), why tax things people have to have, such as medical services and prescriptions and not tax totally unnecessary items such as soda?
This does reward people who take personal responsibility!
It is extremely unlikely that making all the illegal drugs legal would increase long term usage, in fact much the data suggests it would decrease usage, while achieving all the other positive effects such as increasing users safety, providing tax cash flows, removing money from the hands of the large drug cartels and gangs, and I would add, have other positive effects, such as improving social cohesion and allowing more of a safety net for users (consider the effects that drug illegality and the associated stigma actually have…e.g. on families).
Thus all pro-”drug-war” arguments are null and void. Its about politics, money and control, plain and simple.
The war on drugs is a scam and an abomination.
/rant
VNV, I actually completely agree with you on the type of regulation here. The thing I’m wondering about is this: it’s easy to test for alcohol because you can blow on a breathalyzer or take a blood test, but it’s all out of your system and not affecting you within a few hours. With THC, it’s in your system anywhere from 30-45 days. It’s not like you can just whip out a blood sample for someone who was caught driving under the influence and know when he ingested it like you can with alcohol.
Is there some way of knowing when the weed was smoked? This is the main issue I see with legalizing pot and regulating it.
Second that.
Actually, yes. Can’t give the exact science, but apparently they can tell from your blood whether you are under the influence or not. It does take your body a long time to flush it out, but it starts flushing it out immediately. (There was a case in the paper just today talking about that lady who blew really high BAC and ‘was really high on marijuana.’)
Hair samples are a pretty good indication also.
Yeah, I think I remember seeing some studies where they were actually using THC levels from drawn blood — the issue is that when, for example, you do a drug test at work, that’s not what they’re testing for, they’re testing for metabolites that stay in your body for a long time. Same with the hair testing. It’s proof of use but not proof of current impairment.
Most companies that do drug testing on employment are looking for long term use, and not so much whether you are currently under the influence. The only time I have been tested was when it involved a security clearance.
Yeah, the Air Force warned us that the tests they did would let them know they day you changed brands of aspirin.
There is a swab that can be done on the spot like a breathalyzer than can pick up THC in your mouth from up to about 2 hours. The blood and urine tests are definitely too long.
VNV, that’s what the drug vans here do. You pull up, they swab and check the results, and if you’re not under the influence, off you go. It takes all of 30 seconds.
There are many ways of ingesting THC that are more or less healthy. There are some who argue that alcohol is a much more dangerous drug than pot.
There is no argument.
This is fact.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to die from marijuana overdose. IMPOSSIBLE, it has NEVER happened, EVER.
Alcohol poisoning kills hundreds of thousands of people every year.
I agree, there’s only been one recorded death in history directly related to ingesting marijuana. And that’s exactly what the person did, they ATE over a half of a pound because they got pulled. Of course, eating over a half of a pound of anything like that will do the exact same.
But you are correct no one has ever overdosed from SMOKING it.
Meanwhile, Alcohol directly relates to deaths numbering in more than the population of Vermont every year.
And those stupid “Harmless?” commercials are the biggest load of propaganda I’ve ever seen. The commercial featuring the brother who killed his brother in a car accident has a footnote, on the Harmless website you find the case information and you’ll see that the brother was actually under the influence of alcohol well above the legal limit during the crash, along with marijuana. My bet is, it wasn’t the marijuana that caused the crash.
I read about a study(but not the actual study and don’t remember who was supposed to have conducted it and don’t know how accurate it was, but it’s an interesting thing if it is true)
They studied the effects of pot on drivers in order to prove that smoking and driving were bad. The study actually showed that people high on pot were safer drivers than sober drivers. The tried to hush up the study as much as possible when they got the results. Again, I can’t verify this study sadly but if it is true it’s something of note.
Not true. Just a few weeks ago, I read about someone breaking their neck from having a huge load of cannabis drop on his head.
clearly, we must ban this drug immediately.
You’re right! We should ban all large heavy falling objects!!
I think we should ban gravity. That’ll fix it.
Gravity has been shown to have a hand in over 2,397,850 deaths per year. I don’t understand why we haven’t banned it already. Or at least strongly regulate it’s use.
GRAVITY IS A MURDERER!!!11!!!!eleventyone!!!
Seriously, I mean, how many more pointless deaths do we need before the government realizes there’s a killer among us…. RIGHT NOW!
Yes, that’s right, it was completely
on purposeaccidental.Hm, crap. Well this was accidental …
Actually, you’re incredibly misinformed.
There is not one single case of cancer, lung or otherwise, from cannabis use alone. Ever. Period. Studies show NO INCREASED RISK of cancer among even chronic, heavy marijuana smokers.
The carcinogenic properties of cancer have been proven in lab rats by injecting doses far higher than those humanly attainable by smoking marijuana. The same result can be reproduced with caffien, chocolate, and many other substances when substantially overdosed in a lab animal.
In fact, there are multiple studies that show that cannabis use actually retards the growth of cancerous tissue, and also prevents the formation of cancer cells. Cigarrette smokers who also smoke cannabis are LESS LIKELY to develop cancer.

If you think I’m some hippy spouting lies, look it up for yourself, please. There are studies by universities, the government themselves, and independent testing agencies.
Katherine fail. Look something up before you type. Its not carcinogenic at all. Read the research.
” marajuana is about 10 times as carcinogenic as tobacco”
Yeah, I’m gonna have to go ahead and call BS on that statement, mmkay? Please get your facts straight and rejoin the conversation later.
Actually Katherine, marijuana is hundreds of times less dangerous than smoking cigarettes, or consuming caffeine or alcohol. And there has never been a single reported case of death or lung cancer from marijuana alone. Perhaps before you decide your position on legalization you should take a look at some of the numerous new university studies being published about it’s few health risks.
Exactly! I’ve never tried it either, but that’s only because it’s illegal and I’m a big chicken. But I do drink occasionally and can see nothing wrong with that. Why not regulate it the exact same way we do alcohol. Age limit and no driving while under the influence of it. I guess that’s just a little too logical for Washington though.
I’ve never known someone to smoke pot and beat the crap out of his wife/kids. I’ve never known someone to smoke pot and flip a pick-up end for end (killing himself and his friend). I’ve never known to smoke pot and knife someone to death in a fight.
I have known people who did all these things after drinking. In my opinion, alcohol is a much worse drug.
But, as I told my son, the one thing pot will do for you is lose your security clearance so there.will.be.none.in.this.house! (Sorry, don’t know how to do the boldface — do I have to go to ICHC with Rando?)
Personally, I could never smoke anything. Smoke always makes me ill.
I agree, but will note from a legal standpoint there will be an issue with enforcement on the driving under the influence issue (which is already illegal, of course). With alcohol, there’s the possibility of determining a blood alcohol level which gives us a measure of impairment. With pot, it’s going to be dependent on the subjective evaluation of the officer, as tests for pot (currently) don’t measure intoxication but rather metabolites which stay in the system far longer than the THC has any effect on the person.
I do know, or knew actually, someone who got stoned and flipped his car killing all 4 in the vehicle. I’ve seen a guy have a bad reaction to pot and try to kill his fiancee. Just like there are people who make bad decisions while under the influence of alcohol, there are some who make them under the influence of any mind altering substance.
And if you have to go to ICHC for not knowing how to do the boldface thing, then so do I!
Interesting. Most of the people I’ve known who smoke a lot of pot never do *anything.*
Can’t we use the twinkie method for testing drivers? You know, wave a plate of twinkies in front of them?
Seriously, that is a problem. But I’m sure we could figure it out. Someone here was just arrested for DWI for using narcotics. I suppose they just did a blood test?
Ok, here’s the back story on those two I was talking about. Group of potheads ran out of munchies and decided to go to the store to get cheetos or whatever. Best guess we have is that something ran out into the road and when they swerved to miss, they hit a tree in the ditch and the car flipped then rolled.
The guy who flipped out and tried to kill his fiancee- he got really paranoid for some reason and thought SHE was trying to kill HIM. Best we can figure on that one is that the pot was laced with something.
And I agree with Diss- until there’s a better way to conduct the test, it’s going to be too difficult to prove. Hopefully though, they find a better way to test for it soon.
Agreed, we need a way to test for it. Or even if you are a legal smoker, then that goes on your license, and you wreck, you get tested. Been my experience that you can smell it on them for a long time afterwards.
You can punish them for being stupid and causing a wreck without blaming it on a substance. Sure, marijuana is certainly a contributing factor, and I don’t recommend driving high, but if you’re at fault, you’re at fault, regardless of the intoxicants in your system.
If the person is swerving (which they wouldn’t, weed isn’t like alcohol), then law enforcement handles it like alcohol, field sobriety test followed by a blood test down at the local PD. If you fail you get charged with DUID.
As diss said, it’s ALREADY illegal to drive under the influence, and unfortunately that includes motabolites, so even a sober driver who smoked a few weeks ago could be charged with DIUD even if they weren’t high at the time of the accident-
BUT… they would need to have some suspicion of intoxication (probable cause) before they can test you, so if you’re not acting and/or driving like a moron, you can’t be charged with DUID.
Accept that whole profiling thing. Suspicion of intoxication is a subjective thing. It just happens that certain groups in society seem to get pulled over under suspicion of intoxication because of what they look like.
I got profiled by a sheriff last night. I was PISSED.
Well, Froo, you should have known that Allah Akbar bumper sticker was going to catch up to you.
I got profiled 3 times in the last year in Missouri.
Stupid Missouri.
Dammit. I knew I should have taken that sticker off last week….
I was about to say Froo, what’d you get profiled as? A smokin’ hot MILF?
wino–Stupid Missouri. Truer words have never been said. I feel your pain.
That must happen to Jim Brewer alot.
They told me how, and I forgot.
if you want bold do [b] then end with [/b]. cept use the less than and greater than symbols. underline is a u, strike through is s, italics is i…
Tried it, and PK ate the comment. *sigh*
Me, too!
the rat bastards…
Then they’re doing it wrong.
that’s what she said!
Hmmm…evil rat…what you said…see if that works!
Yay, me! I don’t have to go to ICHC. (Love the kitties; can’t stand the lolspeak.)
Okay, now you try, CUAE. Maybe it just screwed it up putting bold first thing in the comment?
I wonder… like this ???
Mina is now allowed to stay also! Yay!
?
Drat. It ate everything but the question mark. I’m beginning to feel like Charlie Brown and the football thing.
Did you start with the “<"? Because that's when it ate mine. Try putting it in a sentence.
*flashbacks to spelling bees*
JAC… copy and paste this but make them …
[b]JAC is learning PK html 101![/b]
dammit, it pulled my less than and greater than signs.
so where i’ve got [b] put
LESS THAN b GREATER THAN and when you’re closing it out with [/b] put
LESS THAN /b GREATER THAN
wait, shit… i didn’t explain that just right. but use your less than and greater symbols where i’ve got the []’s. make sure they capture the letter inside though…
One more time. This Carolinian who despises EWAdams LOLs is learning PK html 101!
Where see shit? INPUT!
INPUT!
OK, I’m going to make the attempt also!
WOOT!!!
Who’s Johny she said, and smiled in her special way.
You guys are weird I mean.. cute!
YOUR MOTHER WAS A SNOWBLOWER!!!!
Way to rake him over the coals!
Los Locos kick your balls into outer space!
Your mom loves my balls wallnuts.
Awwww, the strike-through didn’t work
Hath not a robot hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? If you prick us, do we not bleed ?’!
I will continue to try this strike through or continue to be awesome stupid.
May the Farce Force be with you.
Well, strike through is not an s.
Indeed it isn’t. It looks like I’ll continue to be stupid and not awesome.
Hey Max, try: left carrot, strikethrough, your text, /strikethrough, right carrot. Take out the commas and use the actual carrot thingies.
Oh hell I always screw this up. Okay, try:
Left carrot, strikethrough, right carrot, your text, left carrot, /strikethrough, right carrot.
Pitty if this works I’ll give you one of my patented reach arounds handshakes.
Dammit! I give up
Oops I think the word is strike instead of
strikethrough.tick tick tick tick tick tick
Tried it the second way you stated, no luck. Not really sure what we’re doing wrong. I even looked it up and everything I see says that [s] [/s] is the way to go… *sighs* Oh well..
*gives Pitty a
handshakereach-around*I want the special handshake!!!
Hmmm…
whatthat’s worth a try.WOOOHOO!! I did it! Reach arounds for all!
Cmere JAC! It’s your turn!
Ah HAH!!! Ha Ha! hahahahahaha!
Whaddya mean pitty, that was a special handshake.
Failure of the nesting/timing variety …
Hey I’ll return the favor if you can figure out underline.
Well looks like I’m getting lucky tonight!
Or… maybe not… sh*tballs!
I will get this right because there’s so much riding on it!
Scientific method, we’re doing it right!
*refreshes the page, sighs, paints nails deep red*
If this doesn’t work then I think we’re out of luck.
Pretty sure the admins are using an html service that doesn’t support underlining, to discourage people from confusing them with hyperlinks. I tried it in IE and Firefox… no go. And everything that I’ve seen says that it’s not supported in certain types of html.
I did strike through!
underlining?
Yeah, I’m almost 90% sure that you can’t underline on this page.
Shucks, you get a reacharound-A for effort.
Well it was all worth it, and we learned something!
Yeah, it’s the html version they’re using. I even tried copying and pasting something that was underlined from Word and from Excel, and it doesn’t transfer.
At least we can thank the admins for assuming we’re too stupid to notice underlined content you CAN click on, and content you can’t.
Good detective work, there, Max.
*Reeeeeaches around some more*
Oof, er, I forgot to let my nails dry. *tugs* Yup, I’m stuck.
I might be wrong… but this is the best nail drying accident EVER!
The guy who flipped his car was an idiot long before he ever smoked pot. Driving under the influence of anything, including prescription cold medicine is illegal, and dangerous.
You can’t have “bad reactions” from marijuana alone, the guy who tried to kill his wife had his weed spiked with something (another reason to regulate), or he’s using pot as a scapegoat. If anything it causes the opposite reaction, certainly not rage or agression. It had meth in it, or he was drunk at the same time, I would bet my wallet on it.
Equating the above is like saying that Jeffrey Dahmer was a mass murderer because he drank Pepsi after midnight. Sure, it might be bad for you, but it doesn’t change your ability to determine right and wrong.
You’re right. My point was, and I’m sure I said it before, that people can make bad decisions while they’re under the influence of whatever. In addtion to that, people also can make bad decisions while not under the influence of anything. Take right now for example. I’m at work and should be working. However I’m on here responding to your dumbass. Bad decision and I’m not under the influence of anything.
I always wonder why people swerve to miss any animal smaller than a large dog. I’d say almost 99% of the time if the animal is smaller than a Labrador, the car will win.
Unless it flies up and busts your radiator. *ahem*
I’m with JAC. Hitting any animal can be dangerous. I saw a squirrel get hit once and boy did that mother fvcker bounce!
I shot one about 75 foot up in a tree, and the thing did a auto rotate thing all the way down.
part basic reaction “Holy crap, something in my way, must avoid” and part “I don’t want to kill the cute fuzzy animals” combined with “What oncoming traffic”
Also, you can hit a deer and still win, but it won’t be pretty.
I love cute fuzzy animals as much as the next person, but not enough to endanger myself if it runs out in front of me.
And I agree you can hit a deer and still win, which is why I didn’t mention anything about animals larger than a dog
Deer ruined an 81 F150 Radiator for me. And pretty much totaled a 98 Jeep Cherokee. Twice.
Yeah, like I said, I stayed away from animals larger than a dog for a reason
Depending on the car win is a bit iffy. The deer might die and you might live uninjured…but the car isn’t gonna be happy with you.
“I’ve seen a guy have a bad reaction to pot and try to kill his fiancee”
Really? You saw this, yourself, with your own two eyes? What was his name? What weapon did he use? I ask these questions, because I sincerely doubt the veracity of your claim, or possibly your interpretation of events (it was the weed that did it? Not, maybe, that he was crazy, or really couldn’t stand his fiance’?)
It seems too much like the “he was high on lsd and thought he could fly so he jumped off a building” meme.
Big money in the alcohol lobby, ya know.
True. And we already know what happens in this country when you make alcohol illegal.
Hehe, my family made a small fortune during prohibition. Certain men folk worked for a very smart business man in Chicago.
The same thing that happens when you make weed illegal?
Gang violence, black market profits, overseas cartels, wasted law enforcment dollars, incarceration of otherwise law abiding citezens….
See what I did there?
I don’t think anybody’s disagreeing with you, The Steve.
That’s good, because I’m right
LoL. *smooches diss, oggling her innapropriately*
Niiiiice!
Nope, I totally agree with The Steve. And yes, I saw what he did there. LOL
Yeah, he pointed out what has happened when you outlaw drilling for crude oil in the US. (To a certain degree)
I’m not entirely sure, there’s a black market for drilling oil, or gangs that shoot up neighborhoods over drilling rights…
Oh, I don’t know. Oil for food……. Wars…… It’s not a perfect comparison. But a legit one.
Oil is a dependency issue though. You take away oil and economies and nations will crumble. You take away pot… and Funyuns will bankrupt. The two are on a much too different scale in order to compare really.
Different scale, but the same meaning in the US. Make both of them legal. Take the money away from a lot of bad hands. In both cases.
I dunno, it’s really too much of an apples and oranges type scale. Oil is something that people are dependent upon, in terms of economy, policy, it has heavy undertones in many many more areas than pot does. Considering that if we find a renewable energy source tomorrow, and we legalize drilling tomorrow, we’ll see the benefits of both right about at the same time. It’ll take renewable energy a few years to integrate into a usable system without toppling the economy, and it would take a few years for us to every see that oil benefit us. I’d rather us just find something we can use infinitely without destroying the ecosystem.
The ecosystem is another debate entirely, but I still say it would take the money and a huge amount of the greed out of it. And yes, work on renewable energy. Drill. Atomic. Solar. Cow farts into gas tanks…..
ZOMG I love Funyuns!
Oh god… cow farts? I’m so glad I have a job so I don’t have to work in that refinery
the most absurd part of this weed crap is, unlike heroic or cocaine or any pharmaceutical drug, weed is just a plan, unaltered plant… that they made illegal.. they basically went out to a field, picked a plant and stated, “you there, lifeform, are now illegal.”
Didn’t they say that to Dennis Rodman too?
Is Dennis Rodman officially a life form?
i meant heroin not heroic… heh.. oops
Weed was made illegal during the same period of prohibition. The only difference is, rum runners made the profits they made off alcohol much more prevelant. The government saw an excellent chance to cash in, and legalized alcohol once again. They left weed out because at the time they didn’t come up with a good system for regulation and at that time it was a LOT cheaper to just jail people for it. Now that times have changed and most prisoners live a more supportive life than the lower class, I’d say it’s time for a change in policy.
As long as you can still buy belladonna, it’s utterly insane to outlaw cannabis.
You can buy a porn star?!
And in many places will grow without any help. Pot farms are now a big problem in national forests. Terribly destructive to the forest and to any forest rangers or anyone else who happens upon them.
This is the SDSU drug bust.
South Dakota State University? Wow. Who knew?
Whoops. San Diego.

I thought that was a bit much for those Dakotans.
Oooh, I love cooking with oregano!
Socialist!!!
belgian!!
MUUUUUUURRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!
Nigerian! And they found your dead uncle, and want you to call them and claim $7,345,765.69. Please give them your bank account number so they can deposit it.
quebecian! and really? well, that’s fantastic! here’s my account, it’s 811-heeey, is this for real?
I’ve sent that guy every bank account number I have and haven’t gotten a response yet… I’m beginning to think that guy really isn’t a prince and never found my long lost uncle…
Uh, Max, you might want to check your account balance right about now.
What? It says the bank owes me 15 grand! That’s what the minus in front of the balance means… right?
That’s gonna take a monster rizla to skin up…
This guy is amazing. I smoked almost every day for 5 years (never before or during work) and I would say I averaged about 2 to 3 ounces per YEAR, even when I was smoking for free. This guy smokes 11.5 ounces every 25 days!
If you listen carefully, you can hear his brain cells crying!
His brain CELL. Singular
T-Mobile.
Nah. Sprint.
No wonder it didn’t work.
Naw, you won’t hear them crying… THC paralyzes brain cells, it’s the holding of the breath that kills them. You kill more brain cells swimming for half an hour than you do after a whole year of smoking weed.
Are you kidding? He’s doing all this from memory. And he’s talking fast so they don’t cut him off (like they LOVE to do). I think he’s bloody brilliant!
but we can all agree that the amish are evil and up to something right?
Party like it’s 1699!
If a person can work a full day’s work and come home and drink a six pack.. why can’t a person come home and unwind with a bowl or two? Oh yeah.. because there aren’t enough nonviolent offenders in the prison systems? Perhaps because we’d rather see large sums of money the government would make in taxes by regulation go to the mexican mafia?
OHHHH Wow. Pass that over here I’ll make sure it gets ummmm properly disposed LOL
oh party in Washington!
I’m stoned, and I’m getting a kick out of this LOLpic (and the thread).
Party on, man.
Legalize marijuana.
Right after we make DUI (including with alcohol) a Mandatory-sentencing Felony.
And you give up your right to Obamacare if you get lung/face/throat/whatever cancer from it.
And if you neglect your kids while drunk/high, we remove your kids… followed by your reproductive organs. You get neither back.
Also, people should be able to sue smokers for the adverse effects of secondhand smoke. Especially since pot smoke is so much more carcinogenic.
I don’t mind anybody smoking/drinking/whatever… I DO mind subsidizing it by way of having to pay part of the costs of someone else’s inability to cope.
Don’t be so shy. Say what you really mean man.
omg. this is heaven.
