American Drug War

[Chaos]

Wow chaos, what are you talking about alcohol ruins more lives than cocaine. I HIGHLY doubt that. Yes I realize alcohol and tobacco IS definitely bad for you. And from a medicinal standpoint marijuana is not as bad, in health effects, as cigarettes are. However, if marijuana was legalized imagine the social issues and the fact that it IS a gateway drug. People's lives are ruined because of it, due to the fact they do worse and worse drugs. How good do you think someones judgment is when they are high? To legalize that? I don't think so.

Alcohol does ruin more lives but I think it's only because more people use it. Also I have way better judgment on weed than on alcohol. You can still drive on weed.
Oh and I don't do other drugs.

My friends brother does weed, and he gets straight A's. Fact of the matter is is that everyone's situation and train of thought is different. To put it in cliche, we are all snowflakes.

I have a friend who smokes a shit ton and also gets straight As. I dabble in it a bit (like once or twice a month with said friend) and I have a GPA in the mid 4s. Weed doesn't make people stupid or smart. Typically the dumber ones are the ones who use it regularly but that isn't a function of the drug itself.

Most of the people that get in trouble with the law and fail school do it before they even try Marijuana, just because they continue to do it after the use of Marijuana doesn't mean that's why they do it.

The ignorance within this thread is very bliss :) Not to mention the general lack of information that discusses the topic of drugs, and the general drug war taking place within Mexico's boarders.

Don't use drug kids, it's bad ;P. Some Europians made it whilst trying to make medicine. So drugs is gewd if you use it right!
