A person who drinks alcoholic beverages on a frequent daily basses is nick named a lush.

Interesting because when you watch a movie chances are the actors before the shooting they may have indulged in something while they performed and amused your eyes with out you knowing if these actors have had any thing to enhance their performance.

So that is my beef you enjoyed the movie while you watched pot heads perform with out any bias in knowing if they were pot heads or not.
I wander after you find out their habit if you would be promoting the movie you watched and enjoyed?

Which are you, Cheech or Chong?

My body is mine. If I want to fill it with heroin, I should be allowed to do so. That said, pot smokers lose cognitive thinking skills.

From Merrian-Webster dictionary:
Main Entry: pot·head Pronunciation: \ˈpät-ˌhed\ Function: noun Date: 1959 : a person who frequently smokes marijuana

So being a person who frequently enjoys Marijuana do you classify me as a "pothead"? As well do you have anything at all to say about your serious lack of understanding when it comes to the issues around Marijuana? Or is your sole intention in this thread to derail and insult?

Not true either. I am surprised at how much misinformation people here have about Pot.

I fully agree with you Cannuck, you should be able to do whatever you like with your body BUT of course if things didn't work out due to your abuse, you wouldn't expect to get patched up under a public medical plan the rest of us are shelling out for, would you? That's one good thing about the American Health system, guys who want to abuse themselves and then buy their own plan, can and it's no one else's business.

Children should eat 0.5 grams of cannabis oil every day instead of cod liver oil. We are running out of fish for some mysterious reason. So the new medical plan would take some of the burden off fish and at the same time eliminate most disease in Canada in less than a generation. Those who continue to support any kind of restrictions surrounding cannabis are clearly the enemy of mankind and fish.

Why not? We fix broken bones of people that strap 2x4's to their feet and try and slide down a mountain. We clean out the arteries of people that eat nothing but Big Macs. Saying "Hold me beer and watch this" doesn't void health care insurance in Canada.

Don't you all tease Cannuck!
He probably had a very frightening experience with Marijuana a long time ago, and was afraid of it ever since. And thus missed lots of useful and pleasant experiences. So let's just show some compassion, for once :smile:

I like your back handed sense of humour.

Anyone can get healthcare in the US insurance or no insurance.

making it legal for tax purposes..
Being illegal makes the govt far more money than having some corporate giant growing and selling it and the public getting %1 of the profits. Being illegal the public gets ALL the profits and job creatiion benefits. Decriminalization is the only way to go. Would you like to pay taxes on your potato crop and vegetable garden this fall? I highly doubt it.

You are one of the very few who seems to understand that. I've been saying it for years only to hear people agree and then say legalize it.
