That's okay.....no one needs to remember the last 4 weeks of their life anyway.....
Yeah, real convincing.
It is the gateway drug. Every kid I grew up with that was a "druggie" started out on that stuff. Some you never would've expected it of them, they were the nicest, best mannered kids you ever met. They wouldn't even hardly cuss, but after they smoked pot, it was like they had crossed that "drug" barrier and they were putting all kinds of crap into their bodies. The way I look at it....we have enough drug problems as it is. The illegal factor scares a lot of people away from messing with it. You legalize it and that'll just make it even worse.
As for the long term side effects: how about lung cancer for one! One joint is about the equivalent of 40 something cigarettes on your lungs....maybe more. There ain't no filter and you don't take small drags. That stuff is H-A-R-M-F-U-L!!!!! Another long term effect....how about messing up families and jobs? How about changing kids so they can't concentrate in school and don't care and end up doing nothing other than smoking pot. Tell me that's not a long term effect. THC also kills braincells. Some people may be too stupid beforehand to ever realize they've lost any though.....
Maybe you are Taliban. They hate Americans and support drug growth. You could go over there and harvest some Poppi plants with Osama!
Benny Ben Laden and Osama Ben Laden joint venture pot and poppi plant farm!

Sometimes the best call is no call at all...
