    like alcohol and caffeine?

    again, a drug isnt simply unavailable because it is illegal. if heroin were legal, soccer moms wouldnt keep a kilo of it in their truck for parties.

    illegal drugs just means money for criminals.

    Execute anyone who uses illegal drugs.

    Not a very smart move. Any prescribed medicines can be "illegal drugs". The pain killers in my medicine cabinet that I have leftover from my root canal 5 years ago could be illegal in someone else's hands.

    Maybe you meant execute anyone who ILLEGALLY uses drugs?

    I have too many friends that started with harmless pot. But they went on to more and more extreme drugs, and so many are dead or looney. Pot cost me nearly all my childhood friends. I am opposed.

    Amigo, I find this impossible to believe. I've known an awful lot of pot smokers, most of whom have gone on to happy and successful lives. The ones who didn't mostly can blame it on alcohol, mental illness, or poor judgement regarding women, money, and work.

    The marijuana "gateway drug" notion is just not valid. The gateway drug is alcohol, which ruins most abusers long before they abuse anything like crack, meth, or heroin.

    Sounds like you were one of the lucky ones red.

    With your alcohol theory, wouldn't that be like saying we don't have a problem with promiscuity, it's an alcohol issue.

    Sex is like a drug for me. I was hooked the first time and abuse the shyt out of it.

    It wasn't luck, weed is harmless. People who have never been around it have a lot of false notions.

    Don't try to put words in my mouth.

    Try to imagine how little I care about your sex fantasies. It's a drug thread.

    You have no idea what I've been around.



    I'll take that as a "Yes."



    fwiw, if I were gay I'd prolly want to do you.

    Red, and I quote, "I am the world's freekin expert" on what I know. Six best friends, duck hunters. Four dead, one with a beard down past his knees, one in a minimum wage job at zge sixty, after many jobs.

    You don't believe, but I know.
