    I know a kid who smoked weed a lot and then ended up with a tumer in his head. After almost dying and having some brain damage he convinced his doctor to prescibe him pot "for the pain" which he knows isn't true, but in Oregon we have medicinal marijuana. I just don't understand the logic in that.

    Just like smoking cigarettes or drinking, pot can be just as damaging to relationships and health. I have seen it with my own eyes. I also know many who started smoking pot at 14 or so and now 40 to 50 but still act like 15 and aren't able to take care of themselves without help, that is sad to me.

    Thanks Debunked, this is exactly what people need to see, read and absorb. It scares me what can happen because of it. I've heard enough bad stories to know it's not worth it....

    Dan... :(

    It is no worse than smoking, smoking is legal, it is people like you that get weed banned! ARGH *i really want to flame but am not in a position to, nor do i want to suffer penalties for doing so*

    Why are we not allowed to make our own decisions? Isnt it a free world?

    Things i want legalized:

    All drugs,
    suicide,
    EVERYTHING!!!

    Ok im an anarchist, oh well....*lights up a spliff*

    This coming from the guy who killed 237 frogs in under a minute? You must have been high. If that's the problem it solves, how many frogs you can kill, then I don't want any. I am fine with my 22 frogs.... :D

    Yep I've seen the same kinda stuff... however it really depends on the individual :)

    I work a good job in a management position 5 days a week for a large company.

    I am self taught in everything I know from linux/unix Mac os7 - X/ Crappy Microsoft, perl programming, I run a web hosting company as my second job, Wrote all the hosting scripts myself so that I only use propriatry software. I own my house.

    I would say responsibility and morals are things that are instilled by our parents. If the individual is an irresponsible lazy person well then yes weed will not be good for them and could most definitely effect their relationships. If however they are responsible good moraled persons then you never know they may end up genuine good people that are sucessful even though they smoked weed for years.

    As far as the health issues go cigarettes are killers and cause tumers etc. I havent heard of too many tumer issues caused by weed unless if the individual smoked insane amounts of it every day of their life for 30 or 40 years (bob marley) anything in moderation if you ask me :)

    And maturity? Ive seen 50 year olds that act like they are 15 and they have been stone cold sober no drinking or smoking their entire life :D

    Thats just my 2 cents :D
