    I'm not trying to start a discussion that will be immediately locked. I'm not trying to have a debate about drug laws. I just want to know what you guys think of ganja. Do you love it? Hate it? Avoid it like the plague?

    What's not to like? Safer than alcohol.
    I admire folks who never need anything to help them relax on occasion. Life can be a *****.

    (withholding comment on the laws)

    Don't smoke. Don't drink. Don't do drugs.

    It's a totally positive thing and something I wish were legal. It is less harmful than alcohol and for somebody like me who is wound a bit too tight sometimes, it allows me to relax. I don't have a problem with it.

    I am a drinker not a smoker (I like the feeling of the wacky weed...but I absolutely hate to cough...I mean pathologically hate it).

    I think MJ should be legal, don't get me wrong....but I do get a little bit tired of the Alcohol Bad/Weed Good rap.

    I know some life long heavy drinkers...and some lifelong heavy smokers...and while I know scientifically Alcohol is more toxic to the brain I have a lot of trouble beliving it.

    I'd much rather have a conversation with an old rummy than a daily weed smoker of a certain age. The weed smoker will tell you a story they have told you 1.2 billion times previously...sure you have never heard it...and even when you start to finish it for them they will continue to regale you with the facinating details.)

    Provided they have a designated driver drunks can be fun...they want to go out...they want to party...someone high on good bud, wants to sit on a couch and watch Third Rock From The Sun or play Unreal Tournament.

    Anyway....I think both should be legal...and I can understand why the Marley crew are a little P.Oed because their vice isn't legal and beer and whiskey are readily available to anyone capable of reaching the countertop with it...but be a little gentler on us alkies...most of us wish your vice was legal...so you'd stop drinking our last shot of Black Velvet.

    To say I love it, well....but I'd never pass on a passing doobie.

    I've worked the bars for 10 years and much prefer the company of a smoker.

    My favorite response when asked if I smoke is: Yep, I just love to pour ketchup on my doorstep and eat my way to bed.

    I could tell you how I feel about it if I knew what the hell it was.

    I used to smoke, don't anymore. It's was fun at 20, but at 30 it's a litte old. Now I'm only high on life, and a lot of beer. (weekends only)

    No real feelings about it, but I have watched many people underachieve because of it.

    Altering the status of your brain can not be a good thing.

    So . . .QUESTION: What would be the results of a Drug FREE FOR ALL

    any drug u want at anytime . ..
    on the cheap?

    Like I said. . . the idea of Doctor's coming to work drunk
    bothers me to no end. . them being HIGH as well . .
    scares the sh*t out of me. . .

    Would we spend as much money on Regulation
    as we do not on prevention

    Hell Kids are free to sex as much as they like
    and get abortions without parental consent . . . why
    ban them from doing drugs, alcohol, etc

    As alchohol rarely has any real effect on me, I do enjoy the bud on occassion, but I must emphasize that I mean on a rare occassion; monts or years can go by in between J's, but then I can smoke it quite often for a couple of weeks or so...then months or years go by, etc.

    I must admit that it would probably be much more often were it not for the fact that I am the worst cougher in human history whenever I do partake; tears running down my face, speech affected, usually have to leave the room I'm in so others can hear themselves think. It clears up after a few minutes, but that is unpleasant enought to make me wary of doing ot too often.

    RR, Doctors can come to work in whatever condition they choose now...
    ...the laws have nothing to do with it, their integrity does.

    I know the feeling, my lungs don't like it that much either. Besides, it's very hard to get around here (small tourist town in the moutains).

    Oh. Sheesh, am I a prude or what.

    I smoked some in college. It was OK. It made me paranoid. I thought every guy in the room was hitting on my girlfriend. It gave me the munchies. Other than that, it didn't do much for me.

    C'mon guys! Coughing's the best part! That's like saying you don't like drinking because you hate swallowing. :D

    If you don't cough, you don't get off.

    No kidding. RR, if you're afraid of this you ought to be very afraid. Nobody in our society has more ready, easy access to the very worst, most addictive drugs than doctors. If your doctor has a taste for drugs to the degree they'd show up drunk or high at work, weed is the last of your problems.
