    At OP and ignorant bitches. Question; would you rather be in a room full of smackheads(heroin) or drunks?

    Wow, that's an irrelevant question. Also quite abusive. Answer; I have no idea having never been in a room of "smackheads" as you so colourfully put it. However, based on the one smackhead I know, I think I'd prefer to be in a room full of smackheads going cold turkey than a alcoholic going through the same experience, though there's not much difference in my experience.

    I'm high when I drive more often than not. I've never come close to any traffic incident. Coincidence? I think not.

    Please, don't drive when you're high. You can kill someone!

    ^ This is what people with misconceptions of cannabis actually think.

    I'm a comp sci major in college working part-time. I live a regular social life, I go to classes, I do work, I drive, I take care of responsibilities adequately and I do it high. My room mate was pretty confused when I smoked a bowl before doing homework too. It's not a drug, at least in my use, that deters me from doing things I would normally be able to do if I hadn't smoked, such as alcohol.

    I used to pre-game driving with my parents and they would actually tend to criticize my driving less. Marijuana has an obvious effect, but doesn't retire coordination or physical/mental abilities, similar to tobacco which gives a nicotine buzz but is legal to smoke while driving.

    Fifth Gear did a test on the effects of driving under the influence of cannabis, the result was that it doesnt make any significant difference. Weirdly enough the guy actually preformed better on the tests while high.

    I surrender. I've taken a look at this and this, and I have to say, you were right.

    I think I'm going to throw away my DARE shirt now.

    In my opinion Alcohol is not a drug at all. it depends on the person who drink it.

    That's more than likely because you've been brought up on lies and propaganda.

    No, because it's illegal -_-

    It used to be illegal for women to vote. It used to be illegal for 'black' people to sit at the front of the bus. Something being illegal has absolutely no bearing on whether it is good or bad.

    Because you were brought up not questioning why laws were laws. To do what you were told.
     
  16. corprlfish

    Yes, That's exactly how I was brought up, I was tought that breaking laws was bad and to not question them.

    Because the government is infallible? Because things never change and laws drawn up decades ago are still relevant today? Laws are made to follow, but governments are corrupt and laws age and become obsolete. Questioning them is a good way to start bringing about change.

    I don't want nor do I need change, none of the laws affect me in any way.

    That doesn't mean they don't need to be changed. If there was a law in your country banning people from using RomU, you'd expect people who don't use RomU to help you get rid of the law as it's an unjust law.

    OMG Don't you EVER question the government or the laws they make!
    How could they ever be wrong!
    It is obvious they know what is best for us more than we do!

    Hey don't tell me you've never pirated a game before . . . You should rot in jail!
