Marijuana IS addictive, A cB Service Announcement Options

[giggl3s]

I find it important enough to post a thread that is related to another topic.

It seems that there is someone that is spreading the word that marijuana is not addictive. Please understand, it IS ADDICTIVE.

I strongly advise you to NOT take illegal drugs. They do NOT help you in your long term life.

DO NOT take illegal drugs. If someone tells you that the drug is easily controlled, it can be true for ALL illegal drugs. Easily controlled DOES NOT mean not addictive! Please remember this difference!

Sorry to preach, but I thought this needed to be said, lest some 11 y/o on cB reads in here that marijuana is not addictive.

i think everyone knows the truth about the addictive nature of drugs...

[toodlepops.]

duh. marijuana is addictive. some people who say they rnt are stupid. but the thing is, don't take any illegal drugs.

[miss barnes]

but i'm not addicted...if so i would be smoking everytime it was offered to me

[angel-roh]

yes, i support the point of this topic
people who tried smoking obviously are not thinking for themselves, cmon -.- if those things are not bad for you, then how come since elementary school theyve been tellin u how bad drugs are.
I DONT CARE IF THEY ARE ADDICTIVE OR NOT, they are still bad for you. obviously you are not caring about how they are killing you and others who cares about you. no offense, but anyone who wanted to/tried/using marijuana, YOU ARE BUNCH OF MOTHERF*CKING RETARDS

wow, Jordan I'm amazed on what you said lol. But it's true what you said, I so agree about that. I guess they think they have no life, they just want to destroy them. Who knows, they might regret it in the future. I mean my friend who is addicted to drugs is already regretting. Yes, it's addicted for all you marijuana lovers... hmm if only President Bush get rid of them... I wonder what will happen to the marijuana addicters! lol

[CrimsonArchangel]

im sure all those doctors have never tried marijuana and im guessing neither have you.

lets not think everything on the net is true.

after you tried it for 2 week, repost this topic please.

Hmmm.... sorry, but I think that its pretty obvious that if anyone tries that junk for two weeks, even one week, they will be saying stupid, idiotic things like what you just said.

datrukatalyst,
Good job.

[*jooleeah*]

nobodies endorsing the use of illegal drugs...

ur just being an @sshole...

He is not being an a-hole, in my opinion. He is just announcing that drugs are BAD for you.

Anyway, datruekatidon'tknowhowtospellyourusername, i applaud you.

[kellyannie]

DaTru KataLYST, I you.

[ghjgfkgfk]

okay, but i think it fine if people over 18 want to do it. why? i think by 18, they KNOW that drugs are bad and that they can kill you. it's their choice.

[Spirited Away]

okay, but i think it fine if people over 18 want to do it. why? i think by 18, they KNOW that drugs are bad and that they can kill you. it's their choice.

It's fine if they do it, as long as they neither promote it, nor pass it off as something cool or safe to do.

[Euphoria Rose]

yeah and it was a joke...a bad joke i admit. and i APOLOGIZED
and now i think u owe me and wonmin and apology for ur rudeness

No, he owes nobody an apology.

Making a joke that encourages the use of marijuana is ignorant. Your joke sickens me.

And don't call people a-holes. Cause you never know when you're describing yourself. And because it's an immature thing to do just because someone contradicted what you said. Ever thought about trying to be mature for once?

[sm0kinm0nky]

uhh every drug is addictive... iunno any drug thats not addictive besides medicine.

[avalon*]

well medicine can be addictive too actually if you take a lotttttt of it.. but yeah.

thanks for making this topic in case people get confused by the other one =] you have good intentions and a good heart for people here. =)

[*mona lisa*]

how about you just stay off drugs?! its better for you, your health, your friends and family and your future, so don't try to promote it please.

Like I said in my previous post,
It causes breast development in men. And kills sperm. And it can KILL.

Dude, Marijuana is addictive, and if you get addictive, then you're losing your life every second you smoke that crap.'

Yes, people over the age of 18 ( or is it 21? ) CAN smoke pot. No one's stopping you, only yourself. And if you do decide to smoke pot, it's YOUR life and other people's life, say oh, if you get in a CAR CRASH, or say you accidently killed a man because you didn't know what the hell you were doing.

Just don't influence other people.

[TrustU2HurtMe]

My policy on weed was don't diss it til you've tried it, because half my family smokes pot. So after a stressful day I tried some. Honestly? Its not that great. Nothing a capful of NyQuil doesn't do, plus there's the cost and the smell. I had to wash my clothes as soon as I got home then couldn't stay awake to save my life. Weed is not worth it.

You can't overdose on weed, by the way. There has never been a recorded dosage that you can OD on. Its the things like falling asleep at the wheel that you do while high that can kill you. Not weed directly. Note thats pure, real weed. Not the tampered with junk.

Like I said in my previous post,
It causes breast development in men. And kills sperm. And it can KILL.

Your comment reminds me of an Ad I saw today:

"CIGARETTES SHRINK D***S


if tobacco companies can lie, so can we."

doesn't mean I think you're lying, it just sounds like that kinda propaganda...

[*Podomaht*]

Smoka' weed?
I didn't think it was addicting.... Hahaha
BTW, Person above me is totally right. Except I'm not a pothead. o_O

cigarettes should even be not allowed, i dont even know why they are legal. theres so many ppl smoking cigarettes, and death rate is increasing mainly because of cigarettes while those tobacco companies are making mad money by killing people, isnt that just like drug dealing but LEGALLY DRUG DEALING?

There is such a huge economic dependancy on cigarette sells. Even though we have the medical advancements that tell us cigarettes are bad, making them illegal would be a huge blow to the economy. Not to mention the revolt of the pissed off smokers.

[azn_r4pf4n]

im thankful this topic started.. yea, it is addictive.. im just wonderin.. i wanna ask a question.

What do you think about the legalized medical marijuana?

(i know cali has it, but i wanna know what u think)

Neither am I O_o  I only said I tried it once...

oh? just because of money, do we all have to make people die? its stupid, why would tobacco companies sell things that would kill their own costumers.

[DaTru KataLYST]

It is currently quite impossible to make cigerettes illegal w/o starting a whole new generation of the black market.

Remember the liquor prohibition? After that, black markets began selling them like crazy. Crime went up, crowds in bars were hard to control, everything was so much worse that the gov't repealed prohibition. But the damage was done.

Now that the tobacco companies aren't stupid. They have branched their stinky paws onto household products. They've bought cereal companies, electronics companies, etc anything that is commonly bought. In this way, if cigerettes are banned, they can still continue their operations, except on a much more underground environment. Black markets would flourish once again from the ban. Crime would go up, as smokers' withdrawals can be very irrational.

Who cares if marijuana is addictive, do me a favor go pull out an almanac and look up two things

# of believed deaths caused by cigarettes (per year) - 440,000
# of believed deaths caused by marijuana (per year) - 0

Whats more harmful?
