pot
silentbob Orrin Hatch, U.S. Senator Utah (republican) on the war on drugs:

"We know that if you stop a kid from even smoking before twenty-one they'll probably never touch drugs."


How can they KNOW for sure about something that only has a chance about it?

I'd very much like to see how many kids that get busted for pot are D.A.R.E graduates.

insight DARE has no effect on stopping kids from doing drugs. Statistically it could be argued that it actually encourages them to do them (along the line of reasoning and numbers used for ______ causes cancer type studies) 010726

misstree There are effective and ineffective ways of going about keeping kids from doing drugs. Telling them it's bad for them, it is against law or morals, is ineffective. The current smoking campaign is very effective.

Telling a kid not to do something is a great way to get them to do it. Telling a kid to be responsible about it, telling them it would mean a lot to you if they would wait until they were, say, eighteen, and if they wanted to try it to come to you, well, hell, I can't think of a single kid that wouldn't respect their parents at least a little bit for that.

silentbob what are the statistics showing how effective the new campaign is? how many less kids are beginning to smoke now? i mean, the new campaign might be a good idea, but seriously how effective has it been so far?

I'd like to know

silentbob there was this special on marijauna on mtv today.

at first as i watched they sounded objective and informative. very very informative.


and then later on in the show serena altshul was leaving this cannibus...club...thingie where they sold "medical marijuana" and at first she was saying, "Oh yeah, therse a lot of sick people in there that really need it"

and then later she said, "I asked this kid why he was there and this nineteen year old kid said i have a history of headaches in my family. and i thought, have you tried ASPIRIN??"

so that didn't sound very objective...

and after she was denied an interview with one pot dealer, she said, "I wonder why they don't want to talk with us?" and she sounded like she was truly asking, and not sarcastic at all. and its like "WHY DO YOU THINK"


i was surprised they showed it at all.

misstree good example of why *not* to turn to mtv to define your world.

just one little baby fart of a rant today: "WHEN WILL YOU PEOPLE FUCKING LEARN TO LIVE AND LET LIVE??? Does it really burn your ass that bad that I get stoned, play video games, eat strange things and occasionally CREATE something? Jesus Christ, have an orgasm or something!"

this has been a test of your emergency rant system. It is only a test. Had this been an actual rant, it would have gone on much longer and would never, ever resort to suck cheap tactics as all caps. We now return you to your regtularly scheduled brainfood.

pilgrim I did't smoke the shit till I was about Eighteen, And when I First Got Off, it Scared Me as Much as it Facinated Me.
Once I came down I began the Search for a Reliable Connection. This was in a time when You could obtain weight Oz's of Jamacian Fluff for 20 bucks. We freely rolled and shared with everyone.
We would Smoke up and go out and Do Things, all very Up and Exciting.
Once the Colombian Showed up, We started Paying More For Fewer Joints, All be it , More Potent Joints. Bong Hits became a wiser method of ingesting the Valubale Product, And we would procede to get Wasted rather than High.
Dealers had More Tied up in the Inventory and began to Be SERIOUS about it. If you wanted to get a bulk purchase to cut the cost, you would inevitably meet people with Guns.
WAR on DRUGS and all that goes with it.
I no longer Use, and most of my old aqaintances who do no longer come around, I guess our relationship revolved around the Quest for the never ending Stash. At last check I was spending at Least 35 bucks for 1/4 OZ.
They were calling it Sensamillia, But You always found some Seed.Damn costly when the weight was so tight.
One Things True Without a Doubt. I Could Have Bought a Nice Piece of Real Estate With All the Money That I Burned and Inhaled.
