You're still going to get the DWI if you're caught smoking in your car.

Looks like it's time for the west coast to speak up. Actually here in Seattle recently we voted on a particular piece of legislation stating that we don't want police officers activly pursuing individuals for possetion. We want the punishment to be reduced to a fine rather than incarceration as well. We also (like the rest of the west coast) have approved marijuana for medicinal purposes.
In reference to the health hazards of marijuans, yes my dear melon I am afraid that you over exaggerate the carcinogenic effects of my beloved sensi. I also thought that weed was horribly carcinogenic, but my sister, a cancer research specialist at a biotech firm here in Seattle, told me this week that actually that is an urban myth. (I belive this because of her years of research and because she herself does not embibe in said drug.) Yes it is carcenogenic, but actually much less so than cigaretts. It is more carcenogenic than *tobacco* but here we are refering to straight unprocessed tobacco. Cigarettes are actually far worse than pot is. And also as previosuly stated I smoke no where near as much weed as your average smoker smokes cigarettes each day.
I would also like to point out that despite the fact that I do engage in the ill flamping at least once a day, I am also on the dean's list at my private university and that I am a fairly accomplished martial artist. My lungs have yet to present me with a single problem despite my rigourous training schedual.
Europe has been decriminalizing left and right of late and I think Canada will make it's move soon as well. The only reason it is illegal here in the first place is that stupid DuPont made a whole damn lot of money off of the illegality of hemp and it's sister canabis sativa. At any rate the millions of americans who engage in weed and lead healthy normal lives has never wavered and I don't think that the first plant EVER cultivated by human beings can be kept down for long. I still find it ammusing that a plant is illgal. (OH NO IT'S GROWING!!! STOP IT!!!) And I mean at the very least here is a drug that keeps people happy and in their homes away from others and it certainly surpresses violent tendancies. We are not bad people. Plus you can smoke pot at night and wake up in time for work the next day every time, unlike our legal drug, alcohol. SO, yeah that's my rant people.
LEGLIZE IT - DON'T CRITICIZE IT!

ummmmm......no. Actually I was asking joyfulgirl about her views on allowing people to put anything in their body that they want to. Maybe I should have come right out and said I wasn't trying to be cute or sarcastic or make a point, but I thought that would be assumed. I was just asking a question. Thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt.

as long as you're not being sarcastic, thanks!
as i said before, i really don't have a problem with the legalization of pot. in moderation, it can be a good thing. at the very least, it has helped a lot of cancer patients live a lot better.

I assume you're in favor of the legalization of all drugs and the removal of restrictions on prescrition drugs: Tylenol, heroin, and paxil all available over the counter. Correct?

wow, a *really* old thread.
anyway, baker, it sounds like you're saying "one pot is worse than one cigarette, but not as bad as a whole pack, so it should be legal!" if i'm wrong, correct me.
anyway, i don't really care one way or the other. although, i don't endorse doing illegal stuff. i'm not some perfect law abiding citizen where i think we should all obey the law like robots, but if a substance is illegal, why smoke it? if you need a drug (legal or not) to feel better, it makes me wonder.
on the other hand, if it was made legal, hey, i'd have no qualms. most anything is all right in moderation. it's okay to eat mcdonald's, but making it every meal every day is bad. and since pot doesn't seem as addictive as cigarettes, i think pot should be legal while cigarettes made illegal. but that's just me.
