Cocaine Destroying Rural Ireland

it’s not worse than cocaine, at all. Not even close.

If you think that people who injest (not everyone smokes it) would be different, you equally don’t know any different. Your opinion or perspective pales into the void when it comes to the fact that that no one has died from an OD from it, ever.

Like I said, the worst affects are eating everything in sight and laughing your ass off. If that’s as bad as it gets? Sign me up.

BG was so much in cocaine and heroin one should not use him as an example. Of course he had to blame something culturally bit more tolerable so he chose alcohol and weed. He would not implicate himself in his own autobiography plus if he would openly talk about hard drug use he would actually point out how he destroyed his own family in the process.

How do I know it’s not worse? How many people have died from a marijuana overdose? Zero. How many have died from cocaine? Well…you get the idea.

Then there is the way it is produced. Cociane is laced with all kinds of additives and chemicals, you can find marijuana plants growing naturally in the wild.

I regularly consume weed gummies, and I equally can go through phases of just not as well. My mind is fine, intact, I’m healthy, just got a new job, eat well etc. I’m not a zombie, you are using polarising narratives here to paint this picture that weed is some sort of companion to cocaine, it just isn’t.

There is an irony to your last paragraph, you’re posting emotionally, very little to back up anything you are saying. Like I’ve said, weed is nowhere near as destructive as cocaine, it never will be.

I’m seeing exactly what you say, your observations don’t matter really when it’s not backed up with data or evidence. “Hey maaan” still using this? Using a stereotype to make your point doesn’t give much ground to what you’re saying. As for subtle effects…exactly that, subtle, almost non-existent you might say. You can say you’ve known as many “dope” smokers (is this how you characterise them overall?), I’m sure they are doing just fine.

If you were in a semi-trace, as you claim, I would put money on it not being weed pal, you are taking complete rubbish now.

I didn’t consume weed forever, so I’m well aware of what it’s like not being high (like right now) and being high watching a movie, being in a forest, playing the PlayStation. And I can assure you, I’m not in a trace for 3 days either.

I remember listening to a radio segment on legalising cannabis and some pro guy came on and was going on to the politician saying well sure alcohol is worse for you and the politician said yep I agree but we can’t ban that at this stage we are way too far gone , doesn’t mean we should legalize weed because alcohol is legal. Made sense to me. It seems to be a popular argument for people who want it legalised but it’s a childish one.

it is a childish argument , oh you guys have beer why can’t we have our weed lol

Are you taking something a little too strong there?

I never ignore science. I have been studying it since I was a young teenager. But I don't like bad science. Or popular 'science' that breaks the rules (eg Correlation is not causation is routinely broken, often by people who should know better. You cannot observe that when A happens B also happens and then assume A causes B. Real life situations are far more complex than that.) And good science has plenty of evidence that weed is bad in many ways.

As for calling me a liar. I have better things to do than coming on here making things up.

Oh isn’t that convenient, you’re a scientist! So you don’t want for science to provide data or evidence, could it be that you are just using your own bias here to make your mind up?

And I’m not calling you a liar, more than I don’t believe your story one bit, it doesn’t make sense at all.

And where can we get some?

Marijuana - you know the little brown cakes as opposed to grass (which is dried leaves)?

Little brown cakes, you say? And you smoked them? You must have been really baked so.
