It's highly unlikely you'll ever find a person who is addicted to drugs of any sort, whether pot or prescription medications, that will ever admit that drugs are harmful. Same goes for alcohol.
There are hoards of meth addicts in places these days. None of them think they have a problem either.
Cocaine was an an OTC substance once too. anyone want to argue it's OTC benefits? Opium?
Calcium and magnesium are great for menstrual cramps too and you don't have to sleep them off or manage recovery time. Matter of fact, you can even keep your car safely on the road while using them. Whatever happened to Andy Warhol and Bob Marley? Quite a list of stoner celebs. very impressive. You forgot to mention John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, gosh, so many pot smoking celebs off your list there. Sometimes I wonder what they would have achieved had they not been pot smokers. You might want to balance your list with mention of non-drug using celebs or others.
Hemp is a great fabric, if you don't smoke it up before it gets to the mill. really nice fabric as a matter of fact.
There are other ditchweeds that'll really blow your mind too. Most people do recognize them as insidious and stay away, as they always have. Things get crimiinalized when people get hurt, pretty simple.
you have a very narrow simplistic view of things. like a 5'2" 350 lb person who claims they have really big bones.
there may be some truth to that... but... nevermind. Too hard to pry an addict from his love.
I am saying that some of the most powerful, influential figures of our time have been avid pot smokers.
funny. influential to you anyway.
and prohibition was an attempt to demonize ummm... flappers, right the flappers, no umm gangsters, right gangsters... i know! the irish! lemme see, how else can i twist this to paint my ideas in a better light...hmm ... one of the most prominent leaders in the theory of evolution of the 20th century claims that black people are really less evolved than whites, maybe it's all related.
You know, gambling isn't illegal anymore in a lot of places, why don't you go play in a casino? take all your cash with you and your rabbits foot for good luck. take your credit cards too. Take your 10 year old cousins and teach them how to live. When your money is gone you can get a job as a topless dancer at the bar next door. I've heard it pays pretty well. That way you'll be close to the casino to spend your dough and days with powerful and influential people. Take your 10 year old cousins and teach them how to live and become powerful and influential too.
