Drugs

[KillMeImIrish]

i've only ever smoked weed' date=' but i did it too much and ended up nearly choking to death in my sleep. drugs are dangerous, thats why they are illegal.[/quote']

 

 

alcohol is more dangerous than most drugs.. why is it not illegal?

[Cyro]

People spend money on other things to make them happy, so I don't see a problem on spending it on weed. People do other things to make themselves happier, so whats wrong with smoking weed to accheive the same goal? And besides, life isn't always what you make of it... sorry, but thats just not always true. And those who don't agree, of course can't understand, cause they just aren't in the same situation.

Smoking marijuana makes me feel better. It enhances the quality of my life, thus making me happier.

 

Done, End of Story, No Sequal.

It's also far less addictive.

[Stenners]

Alcahol is more addictive then Marijouna which is less addictive then Caffiene O.o

[azemkamikaze03]

I guess my whole explanation in why alcohol hasnt been banned again went in vain.

[Shadowed Heart]

I have nothing against drugs, I just don't see the point...

[djwakka]

I'm not opposed to moderate drug use whatsoever. Imagine what life would be like, if Bob Marley did smoke marijuana, or if Jimi Hendrix wasn't high when he played at Woodstock. Sometimes the ends justify the means. Or wait, imagine if Mike didn't drink every so often. We won't know for sure if he would have quicker, more clever lyrics, but we do know that he wouldn't have made the bonus song, Tools of Trade.

 

And about these statistics, addiction shits, etc. are misleading. You have to be pretty damn weakminded to become addicted to marijuana, alcohol, or even cigarettes. The addiction rate of nicotine is so exaggerated that it's ridiculous. These are some things you just can't prove. You can't calculate your determination and control by a fucking brain cell count.

 

Like you can't prove this fact of truth for example. Alcohol is more like "I'ma drive mad fast, i jus don't give a fuck." Marijuana is more like "Damn, where are my keys?" Who would you feel more safe with?

It only took me like 5 cigarettes before i started craving them, now the most I can go is 2 days without wanting another. Nicotiene is extrmemly addictive and the hydrochloric cyanide they put in make the addiction of nicotiene stronger! Im not addicted to Alcahol or Marijouna though as I do it responsibly.

Indeed. Nicotine is one of the most addictive substances in the world. I crave another cigarette, but I have a cold, so I will go without it.

[Jeezy]

I don't do drugs at all. Ok I drink a beer with a friend at some time but that just happens like once a month or not even that often...

[Stenners]

Did u know Cough Syrup is one of the best sources for a high............. people who abuse that are just asking to end up in a comber

[burning monk]

I smoke fags, shisha. Every now & then I'll smoke some weed too.

I took some of that the other day... it was for my cold though, hahaha, but I had a great sleep after taking it though oddly enough, lol. It just tottaly mellowed me out... maybe I took more than I should've, lol.

 

 

 

You know... I wonder if so many people would be against marijuana if TV/Parents/Cops/Government didn't go around saying its so horrible. I wonder if half of you are just biased againt it because of its reputation. All due respect of course.

WHich could be why I was never against it, since my dad never said anything and actually im pretty sure smokes it, and i never watch tv so that never got into my head

Cough syrup has DXM in it, a very contreversial drug mainly found in the drowsey formulars. It creates a mellow and giggly high taken in the right does it also makes you walk and feel like a robot (stiff joints) also causes the user to trip. DXM on it's own if fairly safe by many cough syrups have other active drugs such a Chloroform when taken in high doses can cause bleeding of the eyes and skin, unconsciousness, seizures and death. Yes a small dose of DXM does cause u to mellow out, 1 - 2 bottles of syrup would cause u too totally mellow out n trip but its dangerous to attempt it unless u research brands.

 

Drug News:

 

Salvia Divorium:

A recent drug to be called to be added the to restricted substances act in the US is the fairly unknown yet extremely potent Salvia Divorium. Salvia Divorioum is one of the strongest halloucinagenics known to man and is often used to meditate, people use it recreationaly though to have otta body experiances and so on. Someone commited suicide by blowing themselves up in the tent, the parents said it was his experiance with Salvia that caused him to do it (bullshit).

Why is it bullshit? I have experianced Salvia Divorium and you cant operate properly, you wouldnt be able to stab yourself yet alone set up explosives n blow up a tent. Salvia is under threat in several US states, the drug is stronger then LSD but its short term effect of only 10 - 20mins and the fact it's only known by those who experiment in drugs meant that it was never investigated, now it is. Salvia is unknown despite being readily avalible in headshops, herbal stores and the internet.

edit------> It has now been made illegal in certain states of the US not sure which ones.

 

BZP:

Recently the legal XTC substitute (Exclusing USA and Australlia) has been having alot of bad press, mainly because the companies have been advertising it as a work enhancer. The New Zeland government is concerned by this as people are now dropping 2 pills before going to work. BZP in rare cases can cause seizures and heart attacks.

The other cause of concern in New Zeland is the lack of information provided on the drug, this is after a Girl OD'd on Jax the strongest BZP on the market currently. She took 10 Pills within 2hours when the max reccomended dose is only 2, the New Zeland government blamed the companies for creating special offers where a user could buy 10 pills for $40 rather then $60, the girl had a seizure n almost died but was taken to hospital in time.

The same company is also in trouble for putting BZP based drinks into supermarkets in New Zeland, kids baught these drinks thinking they where soft drinks, one can contains 70MG of BZP this has led to the consideration of making BZP a Class D drugs (age restrictions and health warnings).

 

Alcohol:

Recently it has been discoverd that drinking socially could potentially be just as bad or worse for you then drinking regually or being a heavy drinker. The studies show that your just as likely to obtain liver or kidney damage from being a social drinker then if u drunk on a regular basis.

British Scientists are also looking into creating an alcohol substitute that will be in pill or drink form that will not cause liver damage they hope to have some sort of product in the near future.

 

Cannabis:

In the US they are looking to make Cannabis possesion in Alaska illegal, its currently legal to have a personal stash in your home.

Across the pond in the UK further calls have been made from TV personalities and MP's to de-crimalize the drug because prohabition has way more cons then posetives.

 

Psycadelic Drugs (LSD & MDMA)

MDMA, the active ingredient in ecstasy, has shown promise in treating post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety in cancer patients, while LSD and psylocibin - the active ingredient in magic mushrooms - are being investigated as treatments from cluster headaches. Sativex, a treatment for multiple sclerosis derived from cannabis, is already available in Canada.

Scottish Police Officers call for the legalization of ALL drugs:

SCOTTISH police officers have sparked anger after calling for the legalisation of all drugs - including heroin and cocaine.

 

The Strathclyde Police Federation has called for a dramatic change of direction in the battle on drugs crime, and the issue will be debated later this month.

 

The body, which represents 7000 officers, is set to argue that all drugs should be licensed in the same way as cigarettes and alcohol. Officers claim this would cut drug deaths and divert police resources to other crime-fighting priorities. It is the first time that an organisation representing officers has made such a demand.

 

Opponents today said the move would only increase the availability of drugs. But the federation believes millions of pounds are wasted on enforcing existing laws, with little impact on the availability of drugs on the street.

 

Inspector Jim Duffy, chairman of the federation, said: "We are not winning the war against drugs and we need to think about different ways to tackle it."

 

The Scottish Executive said that drug legislation is reserved to Westminster.

[KillMeImIrish]

hmm.. my thoughts on drugs vary. i don't agree with them, and i would never suggest them to someone. but if you do drugs, i won't shun you or anything. i have lots of druggy friends, i just dont agree with the way they live their life.

 

and wakka, you're right- weed isn't addicting. alcohol and cigarettes, on the other hand, very much are. some people have a very addictive nature and can get hooked easily, but that doesnt mean just because someone DOESNT have an addictive nature can't get addicted. they just have to do it more than the others to get addicted.

[M Joel]

Point: I dunno, fun, relief, whatever, never quite thought about it.

 

Addiction is not inevitable, honestly, because although I enjoy them, I do not take them often at all, Vicodin is my most common use, and thats only like every other week, and then is weed, which is like once or twice a month. There arenmt really other things I do, but on occasion I will.

 

And Yeah, I drink, and a bit more actively than drugs.

 

The fact that you have never really thought about it shows me that you're not as smart as your teachers seem to think.

 

 

LSD is the only drug I'm not opposed to. I can explain why if you want me to, but all drugs are ever for is an excuse to get off. You can debate it with me all day long, but that's the bottom line.

 

Let's not forget though that drugs aren't the only thing that we become addicted to. I'd really like to know how many of you guys are not materialistic cretins at times??? How often do you watch VH1??? How often do you tell you friend what they want to hear, and not really how you feel?

 

Any kind of pressure or addiction isn't good for us. Drugs aren't the only things.

Simple reasson, LSD isnt addictive thats why im baffled Mushrooms are illegal. Marijouna is the other drug that shouldnt be illegal as its safer then alcohol and tobacco.

Exactly. LSD isn't addictive as far as I know, but that's not the only reason I'm not opposed to it. I am, however, opposed to the other drugs.

[Stenners]

The only problem with LSD is it can be, to some people, very un predictive and uncontrollable which cane lead to mental torture but that rarley happens to people who are stable minded. As far as im aware, LSD doesnt actually harm the body in any way unless u over dose on it.
