My entire family has always smoked cigarettes, and after seeing that... hell no. Not now, not ever.

I agree with this. Alcohol is more harmful, but it is more widely accepted because it is legal.

pot is not cigarettes.

it doesn't give you emphysema, it doesn't blacken you lungs in unholy chemicals, and it doesn't kill you eventually.

in fact there is evidence that the smoke is actually beneficial in cancer therapy and actually reduced cancers in small amounts.

don't believe the propaganda D.A.R.E. shat out.

research and question.

Pot isn't evil - but if you think that smoking the stuff doesn't leave tar in your lungs - you're the one buying too much propaganda. There are plenty of carcinogens in almost any smoke - including pot.

Pot doesn't fight cancer - but it does reduce the nausea associated chemotherapy.

Ah yes - that's THC. If you extract THC and administer it, it's a drug. You can extract nicotine from tobacco plants and use it as a drug.

Nicotine reduces the chance of breast cancer among women carrying the very high risk BRCA gene,[67] preeclampsia,[68] and atopic disorders such as allergic asthma.[69] A plausible mechanism of action in these cases may be nicotine acting as an anti-inflammatory agent, and interfering with the inflammation-related disease process, as nicotine has vasoconstrictive effects.

Pot smoke is a know carcinogen link.

There is a difference between drugs and smoke.

okay, cannabis does have tars when smoked. these tars DO NOT translate into cancer.

nope, never been my thing. I've actually never smoked a cigarette either, never felt the need... I have a feeling that if I didn't grow up drinking sips of wine/champagne during parties I wouldn't have bothered with alcohol either.

How nuts is this? Children of the Hippie 60's and neither of us EVER smoked pot OR got drunk. Yes, you read that correctly. NEVER got drunk either. Honest, no joke. Not from super religious families or anything. Just never wanted to. All our friends did BOTH..in front of us. We were too busying having sex. THAT is also true. To each his/her own.

i used to be big into it for one glorious summer. then it started making me paranoid. nowadays i'll take one hit every now and then. it's pretty enjoyable if i dont let my imagination run away with me.

in the right situation, with the right people/person (more likely just one person)...

i dig weed.

Honestly I don't care, but in my book smoking anything is not a good idea.

If you need the anti nausea benefit, then I can see it, because smoking is actually the preferred method of delivering THC.

I say bring on the hemp - shampoo, rope, fabric, medicine - whatever.

Hemp was one of our biggest cash crops in per-revolutionary war America.

Sorry to say Washington is too tight-assed to think of anything that is creative. They are going to fight the war on drugs - and Vietnam until we're all broke and speaking Chinese.

the fact is, the drug war makes money.
lots of money.

also, keeping up the war with other countries also keeps them unstable which makes them easier to control.

drugs are good, people controlling them is bad.

I've never had the real stuff, but me and my boyfriend tried the legal stuff last night. It was pretty great. Don't think I'll do it again any time soon though.
He's had the real stuff though.

I haven't smoked or gotten drunk before - I'm curious about it, but also a little apprehensive, considering drug addiction/alcoholism is pretty prevalent in my family.

I've only smoked 3-4 times ever and it was in my freshman year of college. At this point, I don't think I'm in the right place in life to do it anymore.

I haven't ever smoked, but maybe if it became legal I'd try it atleast. But it's not worth getting into trouble over it. I'm not really much for things that mess with function at all, so Pot wouldn't really be for me i don't think. I've had plenty of offers to smoke, but i have declined every time, i even had a friend who would smoke it every day.

I never have. I think it's a waste of time and money.
I am open to trying pot brownies or something like that, though. Just not smoking because I don't want to mess up my lungs.

I don't smoke pot, or cigarettes, and I wouldn't ever smoke either. It's a horrid habit.

My ex smoked pot on occasion (he was a frat boy, so it was somewhat unavoidable) but he wasn't high all the time and it didn't seem to be a big problem for him. It was basically like he was drunk when he was high. But he knew I wasn't comfortable with it so he wouldn't smoke or be around me after he'd been smoking.

I'm most aroused when i'm high on indica. I just remember being super high one day and then i fell asleep and woke up having sex which lead crazy orgasm. Then i woke up in the morning drained and hungry with a dry mouth. Maybe i'm a bit subconsciously stressed out and the pot relaxed me leading to better sex... Pot isn't good when smoked... Or with all those nasty chemicals...

I don't smoke pot, partially because I don't know anybody who smokes pot. I wouldn't know how to buy any, or even where to look.

Reminds me of a joke I heard on the radio this morning... the guy was talking about how somebody approached him about buying drugs and he wanted some but didn't know the right lingo to order. "I would like to have ten... cocaines please."
