Bullshit. I was making fun of you [it's easy]. You're no different.

Your compulsion, or vice is just not readily apparent here.

You might like the adrenaline of base jumping, or perhaps you're just a chronic masturbater...but I assure you you aren't perfect, and your "bent" is just not readily apparent.

You just think you're better, and you judge others. Wrongly.

I certainly don't want our jails "flooded" with those poor, innocent drug users... wait, did they know that the substance was illegal and yet they continued to use it? Why? Hey, the stuff isn't addicting, right? Yet they continue to keep using it and getting busted. Why?

I don't think I said that. Although, regular use of alcohol is considered alcoholism in some circles. Seriously. My definition is that if you "need" something, then you are addicted. imho.

That's weird considering that I've been surrounded by alcoholism and drug abuse my entire life.:idk: I can honestly say that I have seen every type of drug used personally. Heck, I saw dudes free basing back in the day, I've watched crack be made, seen people shoot up, been in a meth house, etc. One of my brothers is/was a junkie and the other has done time for dealing. I could go on but why bother? You all seem to feel that you need drugs/alcohol and that their use is perfectly okay and even somewhat necessary. Okay. I honestly believe that we all should strive to eliminate them from the world and that we would be so much better off with out them. Small point, some of you are so protective of the environment but you go on polluting your own bodies/minds...:idk:

because some people dont want to drink or take perscription pills to take the edge off and they see pot as their best choice be it legal or not. this country has had some ass backwards laws in its time and only through people ignoring them were they able to finally change. do you think pot will ever be legal if people act complicit with its legal status?

Ah but WHY is it so important that smoking pot be made legal? That's where you are all losing me. You sound as if it is NECESSARY for you all to be able to smoke pot and that's my point. Why is it so necessary?

Pretty much. Reread our posts. I said most are not addicts. You challenged that with "says who?". You then went on to create your own argument about what some experts think that was irrelevant to disputing my statement. I'm pointing out that irrelevancy.

You have chosen to not drink or use drugs. That is fine for you, but you seem to have attached some kind of nobility to that decision which I fail to see.
