People the smoke pot and the like.
|
|
Why is it that people who smoke pot become paranoid? I called a friends house and he didnt answer the phone. So I walked over to his house and rang the bell. Two guys came rushing to the door, threatening to kick my ass because they thought i was a cop. I mean how baked were they to think I was a cop. Anyway, im so glad i dont smoke that shit.

more so than pot, speed will make people paranoid and violent. pot is, for most people, a way of life so i find myself questioning wether or not to judge people who use it, simply because of the lifestyle they choose to lead. from my experience, people who smoke pot are not bad people. noticeably less intelligent, maybe. it does bug me when they try and persuade others to take up their addiction. i guess alcoholics and nicotine addicts will do the same thing, now that i think about it. also, i am bothered by people who try and justify the use (and/or legality) of pot based on "medical benefits" and "science". If pot cured cancer, why isnt everyone who gets cancer smoking pot? what good would it do to cover up such medical knowledge? obviously, the only medical use for pot is as a pain reliever. and if used thusly, would not be a "bad" medicine at all. The problem is, it is impractical to deploy use of pot because of its addictive qualities. Morphine is used only when needed and it is controlled. I see no reason why pot should be treated differently.

Re: People the smoke pot and the like.

| You have some good points Gendou, but pot is not a way of life, and most people dont think it is. It is very addictive and BAD for your health, worse than any legal drugs, thats why it is illegal. Most people use it as a method to relieve stress, which is just stupid because there is so many ways to relive stress without the use of drugs, and they are only detroying their health. |

@Shiriu: you said pot is more addictive than any legal drugs. i would agree with the argument that nicotine is more addictive than pot. you say pot destroys your health, but compared to using tobacco or alcohol, its effects are much less damaging. the long term effects of pot on the human brain is a matter of much debate, but recent studies indicate true shrinkage of certain parts of the brain, which is a "health problem" but will not shorten your life in any direct way. as for pot being a lifestyle, perhaps you do not have the same definition of the word as i do. by lifestyle i mean "the objective of a person's day". people who smoke pot everyday think about it everyday. they live their day to day life with the primary goal of feeding their addiction. this can be said about any addict: sex addicts, nicotine addicts, crack addicts. as for the REASON that pot is illegal, nobody can know this for sure. people long ago made decisions not based on MODERN scientific understanding! this much is for sure. During the time period that pot was made illegal (1619 to be exact) hemp was a MAJOR CROP. i do not claim to know for certain, but it is safe to say there must have been strong economic reasons for this law. during a time where coal miners died every day, people's health was obviously not the key issue in drafting new legislation. of course, there are people who use pot recreationally but do not make it a lifestyle. these people are not addicts. for them, pot is not a problem. lucky them! they can easily choose to get stupid on a friday and go to work again on monday... which is what i should be doing right now!!

| Gendou: I didnt say pot was more addictive, I agree too that nicotine may be more addictive. First, pot is more harmful than tobacco or alcohol, in long term use it can also cause lung cancer and the other effects that tobacco does, due to the fact that pot also has chemicals, and the tar in its smoke is much more damaging than the one in the smoke of tobacco. And lets not forget the effects it has on the brain since, a high level amount of thc, the chemical found in pot, can do some serious damage in there. |

is it true that pot delivers a higher tar load to the lungs than nicotine? i would seem to think not because nicotine users tend to inhale much more smoke volume than pot users... i think? yea, the damaging effects to the brain are very visible indeed. however, who are we to tell people not to damage their brain? if we were to pass a law preventing people from knowingly doing damage to their brain, several TV shows would have to be canceled (all reality TV shows, most everything on fox, and the entire disney channel. oh, dont forget cartoon network!). Hey, lets do that! :D

| I'm not really sure. I know that only some of the people I talk to that get high regularly are paranoid when they do so. One joint = 2 beers. Some people become little balls of angst when they drink, some become whores, some become happy...I suppose you get a variety of side effects with weed, too. lol^.^ |

Ya, I guess it has been outlawed in the US because of the strict religious attitude the country used to (and to an extent still does) take. They even tried to outlaw liqour, but that was too much, so they gave it up. Not sure how long the gov can keep up this ban on pot... in some states it is simply a slap on the wrist for finding it in someones backyard. Half the people I know now smoke pot once in a while, and you KNOW big name people (celebrities, sports figures, politicians) get into that stuff all the time. Eventually, it will be legal... till then, theres Amsterdam :p. |

LOL Gendou :D About the tar, Im not sure about this part, I dont know which one releases more tar or which tar is more harmful to health, but someone that smokes 2 or 3 pot cigars can cause the same damage as 20 or more tobacco cigars. That may happen because pot users usually inhale more deeply and hold the smoke in the lungs for a much longer time. But every1 can do what they feel like :D |

We have to make sure that our life isn't bothered by such thing like cigars. It really bring hell to us!!! From what I read, 20 cigarettes a day means 150 ml of tar per year and our lifespan will be shortened by five years! Passive smoking is dangerous too cuz if we inhale the air in a smoke-filled room for quite a long time, it is the same like smoking 5 cigarettes. Oh... But anime is more addictive than those drugs!!! It damages our brain permanently and we crave for it everytime... lol

Wow, whoda thunk I could spark sucha a strong deabte, over somehthing like pot. All I have to say is that those who smoke it are really funny and nice people. Im one of those people that help them when they pass out or vomit after they drink too much or smoke. you could say like "A Designated Dave". So I still like them, though I always question them about what they do. I won't ditch my friends because they smoke, but I will sometimes try to convince them not to.

Sometimes I used to wonder why do people think smoking would cut your life by some certain amount of time. Do you mean compared to if you didn't smoke? If a person were to smoke later in life, wouldn't it be fate then that he/she die accordingly at a certain time because of smoking anyway? So how can if be cut any shorter? Even if that person were to never touch the habit, what says that they would've lived longer compared to if they did? For example, if someone were to walk out the street and suddenly die by a drunk driver, what's that like compared to if the person would rather stay home and relax and smoke because that's the only place where the person can smoke. I only wanted to say what I used to think. Now, if its someone around my age (and I'm not old, the name's just one of those ironic names my friends gave me) I do my best to convince them too not to. But if its my elders, I leave it to them to decide how they want to be. |
