I would personally like to know why someone would waste the time it takes to say that they "hate pot smokers"?
Do we not currently have issues happening not worldly but even in our own cities and neighborhoods that are more important, upsetting and worth taking the time to discuss?
Or why not spend the time taking to people about something that you absolutely love instead of hate? Wouldn't that be something others would enjoy spending their time talking about rather than (introduce my personal opinion) your blatant disregard for personal choice or education about marijuana which is only separated from other intoxicating substances like alcohol or coffee by an outdated law which isn't far from being over turned.
hmm.

Exactly, generally it's best just to mind ones own business, unless they are blowing the smoke in your face.

This life is soooooooooooooooooooo short compared to when we can do arithmetic out in the universe in Light years, AU s, Parsecs and many other forms in order to get a gage in distance and time here on earth.
Man’s puny 80 year average life span here on Earth is a weekend compared to the age of the earth 4.5 to 4.6 billion years old.
So, for you pot hating lovers think this,

You probably have other bad habits worst then pot, which will make you a hypocrite if you throw rocks on glass houses when in fact you are living in one.

If you don’t have bad habits which is imposable, or maybe you have and fear criticism while you keep things in the closet, then you are hiding and at the same time your little time here on Earth, as we said average 80 years, you are squandering the chance to a peaceful experience. You may think that pot is bad while you have the nick name “lush”.

Again if in case you do not have any bad habits, then you possess divine intellect, which the majority do not have, but knowing that the human species is a consuming species with an addictive characteristic thrown into the mix, all you quick to condemn pot hater lovers, are in contravention of other issues that concern society, by having other addictions that are creating unnecessary problems in society, for example a cop drunk kills some one while driving, lives his license at the crash site and runs off so he doesn’t get breathalyzed, I used a cop to show that even people who broker peace are people with addictions.

This is the problem with some people they want to be lawyer, Judge, and executioner, while their life’s have problems of their own.
Totally demented.

So let me ask? Do you guys wonder how much weed i smoke?

Why would we? I don't smoke but in the day I smoked enough to keep me going until I start pushing up daisies. A person who has never smoked, doesn't really have a personal opinion, just one that was handed to them. Without personal experience in anything, an opinion is just blowing smoke out their butt.

Except for medical usage.

They smell , they act retarded, they support drug dealers!
Immature losers!
lol If you had the guts to face my daughters and say that, they'd hand you your a##. The oldest has her own beautician's shop and the youngest finished her Back in Health Science and is taking a course in emergiency peds medicine. Probably going to get her Masters degree afterwards.
I had a friend that held 2 PhDs in food science and biology and worked in food research that had the odd puff, too.
I'd suggest that you smell worse, act more retarded, and are a helluvalot less mature than they are.
hehehe I can troll, too.

I don't puff - I don't mind people that do, and I don't know why puffers compare MJ use to alcohol - why do that? As an interesting side note - I drink beer because I like the taste of beer. I may have a rum and coke because I like the taste of rum and coke. I don't know anyone who smokes pot because they like the taste.. it is to alter the state of mind. It would be like drinking to intentionally get drunk. I drink a couple of beers with friends that doesn't leave me drunk. The fact is that doing anything in moderation is likely fine. An occasional pot smoker doesn't hurt my feelings (could care less really) but chronic smokers, much like alcoholics, whatever, have a problem that needs to be addressed. Toking to get by is bull****. Get a grip. I don't see the comparison between alcohol and pot, but I do see the intention, and that is what can be concerning. That some want to leave a sober state of mind. Who cares really, but there are consequences that you may think don't cost anybody anything, but everyone who pays your medical bills (pot is something like 7 times as destructive to your lungs as a cigarette, and you know how safe they are, I think it has to do with tar content) and I think its reasonable to crap on anyone who is doing things to excess. Chronic isn't cool. It's embarrassing really.

And if you need it medically, use it. Everyone should leave you alone for that. It is the significant minority.

I saw Santa a few years ago at a gas station outside Kingston, ON on the 401. It was the middle of summer (off season for Santa) but there he was, white beard and all, driving a red Ford Ranger. His truck had New York plates and they read "S Clause".

And I wasn't smoking anything at the time.

I believe you. Used to be a fella in Penticton BC that looked identical to Colonel Sanders of KFC fame. Was a really nice guy, good to kids, always had a pocketful of yummy treats.

I guess this will be my final post concerning this as it seems no one really reads what I have to say. What is the fascination with the banter that creates such tension? Is this really the place to argue and bicker between each other? It's simply a circle of who can out smart, out wit, out mouth the other person. This is a forum on the internet, it's meant to discuss topics, meet people and listen to their opinions on things. Sublime your opinion on pot smokers has been heard, and I am among those that disagree. Not only is your opinion your own opinion but it seems that your ignorant to others opinions, science, education and maybe even common sense concerning this topic. I suggest you find an intelligent argument to give you some sort of ground to stand on concerning your opinion, that way we can all actually TALK about this in a semi-constructive manner. We'll all have a good time and enjoy learning from or about one another!!

I don't puff -

Have you ever smoked Pot?

I don't mind people that do, and I don't know why puffers compare MJ use to alcohol - why do that?

Because it demonstrates similarities and differences.

As an interesting side note - I drink beer because I like the taste of beer. I may have a rum and coke because I like the taste of rum and coke. I don't know anyone who smokes pot because they like the taste..

Part of the reasons I'll smoke a joint with others is the taste. There is a skill needed to correctly dry and cure pot. Those with these skills can alter the taste significantly along with how smooth or harsh the smoke is when inhaling it. Those who know, appreciate the good stuff. So now you can say you have chatted with someone who does smoke Pot for the taste.

it is to alter the state of mind.
To some extent ya, that's the idea.

It would be like drinking to intentionally get drunk. I drink a couple of beers with friends that doesn't leave me drunk.
Some people don't enjoy Pot to the extent of passing out. So you see, there is a comparison between the two already.

The fact is that doing anything in moderation is likely fine. An occasional pot smoker doesn't hurt my feelings (could care less really)

What an odd thing to say. How could a Pot smoker hurt your feelings either way?

but chronic smokers, much like alcoholics, whatever, have a problem that needs to be addressed.

Maybe we should define for argument sake, what "chronic" means.

Perhaps you mean people that have a problem, have a problem that needs to be addressed.


Toking to get by is bull****. Get a grip. I don't see the comparison between alcohol and pot, but I do see the intention, and that is what can be concerning.

How do you know? If you don't use Pot then how can you tell if it's bull**** or not?
As well "get by" can mean a lot of things. So how about putting that into context and
we can see if it's arguable that it is or isn't bull****?

Now if you mean someone smoking joint after joint until they pass out like someone drinking beer after beer until they pass out I can see your point. But I don't see that very often with Pot though it happens often enough with alcohol.

That some want to leave a sober state of mind.

So someone having a beer after work is trying to leave a sober state of mind? I wouldn't say that. I think that someone taking to drink until they have become unable to control themselves or irresponsible have left a sober state of mind, but I don't think anyone smoking a couple of joints or drinking a couple of beer over the course of an evening as not of sound mind and reasonable judgment.

I will add to that, in the rare case of wanting to expand creativity and the way of looking at things in a safe and consenting setting, there isn't anything wrong with taking leave of the sober state of mind just to have a walk along the parameters and the quick peek inside of who we think we are. To the contrary, I feel that can be a good thing for those that have the wherewithal to know what they are doing.

Who cares really, but there are consequences that you may think don't cost anybody anything, but everyone who pays your medical bills (pot is something like 7 times as destructive to your lungs as a cigarette, and you know how safe they are, I think it has to do with tar content) and I think its reasonable to crap on anyone who is doing things to excess. Chronic isn't cool. It's embarrassing really.

Well it sounds like you care. I pay your medical bills, you pay mine. Should you come down with something terrible should I be finger wagging and telling you that regardless of how much you've paid in taxes thus far, you don't deserve medical care because I don't like what you have been doing? For that matter, should medical care only be available to those who take extreme care of themselves body and mind who die quietly at home in their sleep? Without intending any offense, I have to say that premise is absurd. What's more, who ever told you that Pot is more damaging to the Lungs than Cigarettes lied to you. It's not true at all. You can take my word for it or you can go and do the homework yourself and find that what I tell you is the truth.
As a matter of fact I encourage you to do so. Not only will you then know the truth for yourself but you will effectively be able to correct others who make that same mistake.

And if you need it medically, use it. Everyone should leave you alone for that. It is the significant minority.

I agree and what's more, everyone has a vested interest in changing government policy to wards Pot. If you are at all concerned about your taxes as you mention here, then you should make a point to have the billions of dollars of tax money that is dumped into the war against drugs each year stopped and a harm reduction approach promoted. This will not only save you money, but it will also help to bring correct information to the public, a helping hand to those who want to stop using drugs and end the funding to organized crime who make a large amount of money off selling Pot.
