Debate the pros and cons of cannabis usage - Another containment thread brought to you by US Politics General

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

i love when people say this, there's no way in hell thats true. i can knock out an editable and still operation heavy machinery. Unless it turns out i'm the grandson of both Cheech and Chong i doubt my tolerance is that high considering i'm not really a weed person and my liver looks like Jimmy Carter's at this point.

Unless 1970s weed was just like the equivalent of eating a couple poppy seed bagels i don't think it was really that weak. am i really supposed to believe Willie nelson was getting green'd out on the equivalent of one long puff of dab i don't think it was truly that weak. i never feel too high i can't walk even if i'm smoking an entire $20 of weed.

How's about not driving at all if you are high or drunk? It's not that hard of a concept. No matter if you are driving drunk or stoned you should get a DUI.

Okay, moderation is also something our society is piss poor at exercising. If you were to compare the rate at which Zoomers smoke to if they drank, I bet you most of them would legally be considered alcoholics. That being said they aren't even in the same class of drugs. Weed can be way more dangerous than alcohol. Niggas think they can drive two bowls deep and it makes them a better driver. Then they crash their cars.

But you know what the real kicker is? I can copy and paste your entire argument, replace the word "Weed" with "alcohol" and show it to an entire AAA meeting and ask who thinks this person is an alcoholic. Every single hand would be raised. So the bottom is, drugs are bad. Respect your body. Respect your free time. Mkay? Because drugs make you a fucking loser.

Have fun, folks.

Pro: Cannabis products will get you high.

Con: Cannabis products will make you lazy as shit.

Besides, I heard of a lady whose granddaughter did two marijuanas and ended up in a coma, and then died. Facebook said so, so it must be true.

 

[Lokenstien]

Pro: You get high
Con: You get high

 

[Underperforming]

Pro: “healthier” than regular cigarettes.
Con: has many if not all the same chemicals that make regular cigarettes bad for you

Get back to me when you find a joint that has Polonium-210, benzene, Cadmium, formaldehyde, and toluene.

 

[PovertySprocket]

Pros: Relaxing

Cons: No matter how much you try, everyone will think you smell like a bum. Like radioactive dust, it will cling to anything nearby and emit shit particles for months.

 

[Divine right to rule]

Not a fan of it.
It fucking stinks, and heavy users into adult life tend to be complete losers.
Atleast it wont make you hungover, and you can't die from overconsumption like with alcohol, so there is that.

Give it time. Our quest to get higher and cheapen growing techniques will and grift an industry will end just like the booze industry did: Pouring lots of nasty cancer causing chemicals into your weed that you are now inhaling directly into your lungs. Remember, governments didn't suddenly turn around from fighting against this plant from becoming legal for nearly a century just to quit because they had good intentions for you.

 

[Yandex Captcha Solver]

Pros: It is a great painkiller with low addiction potential v opiates
Cons: Stoners, stoner culture, and the 'it cures everything' crowd

 

[Margo Martindale]

Con: makes you think way too much. I literally cannot stop thinking about shit going on in my life whenever I take it, so i usually refuse whenever someone offers me some in social situations.

 

[Argentinian Tails]

Pros: It's really fun.
Cons: It has a fandom worse than Undertale.

 

[Beautiful Border]

Pros: The high is very enjoyable, it's not addictive for most people if used in moderation, has some legitimate medical uses.

Cons: It's not harmless and people need to stop treating it like a miracle plant with no downsides. If you've never used it before then it's probably something you're better off not having in your life. But it's moreso the culture around weed I find obnoxious.

 

[Uncle Sid]

Pro: It lets you talk to the dead.
Con: See above.

 

[Agamemnon Busmalis]

Pros: Nothing to add others haven't said before.

Cons: Combining it with dissociative drugs and coming back to reality 15 hours later to the sounds of Ram Ranch 252.

 

[Mister Qwerty]

Pro: Less likely to destroy your life compared to other drugs and alcohol.

Con; Your average wino is nowhere near as annoying as your average pothead.

 

[YouDoNotHaveTheRight]

If you're white please stop inhaling jewdick if not please continue.

 

[I mean I'm just saying]

Con: cartridge-based vaporizers are becoming more and more popular, especially among younger people, and the very real possibility of harmful fillers and cutting agents is completely ignored in the name of a more convenient high. Herb can obviously be harmful as well, but it's much harder to hide and there's less to gain.

My cousin works in the surgery room and they cut up a 24 year old who's lung looked like Swiss cheese due to these cartridges. They are anything but harmless. I have a feeling the damage comes from the cartridges themselves less the weed, but any medium that's used in them is not good for you.

 

[Troonos]

Con: You're fucking annoying to everyone who isn't high when you're high.
