this is what i was referring to. I think if something impacts others/the world/environment, then YES, it should be regulated/enforced. tbh i care more about the collective good of the people and the sustainability of our world than any single person that is detracting from it.

However, it is a different thing completely when you prohibit someone from doing something that harms no one else, because it is not 'best for them'

Addicts of what? I've never heard of a weed 'addict' who went and killed someone for a joint. And there is no bodily fluid transfer with marijuana so they can't spread STDs either. Alcohol addicts rob/steal as well... they just do it from stores as opposed to other people because that's where it is.

They shouldn't. It's to legalize it... not force people to do it. They can beat whomever substance free.

and if weed smokers were killing innocent people in car crashes, it would make the headlines too... but it doesn't really happen
61% of 208 million is about 125 million people with 85k deaths = 0.068% which is quite low and is well included in my original statement of the actions of a few affect the majority

some srs flaws in those studies, cmon ur a stat grad


so from that line of reasoning alcohol should be illegal too, and any other substance they may, at some point, cause harm to themselves or other

we should outlaw cars then, and fatty, processed foods - those are much more harmful to people than drugs or drinking are

just because it doesnt directly affect someone else doesnt mean it is ok

i mean, think of it this way:

you can no longer eat bacon. clogs your arteries. isnt worth it. eat other stuff instead, because bacon isnt the best choice.

now, what do?

that stat is very flawed because 208 million people didn't die in 2000. the percentage of any death statistic versus population is going to be extremely low... most people don't die.

even if that was some sort of basis, marijuana would be at ~0.000%

if that is how you feel then i doubt we will see eye to eye on it. when you watch porn, it doesn't affect anyone else, but i don't think it's ok. would you be alright if porn was illegal? substitute whatever else you'd like for porn, such as watching tv. just because -i- don't like TV is not a very strong argument as to why -you- shouldn't be able to
11-02-2010 , 03:17 PM
I will make a thread in POG about this. I think it comes under "other games"

does masturbating cause adverse health conditions besides smoking cigarettes and taking a nap

no... that many used it without dying that year. i've been smoking for ~10 years and i haven't died in any of them. and again of course 124 million is going to be more than the marijuana statistic because it is not illegal...

Nope, I met the girls at like 2 am in the poker room or something! I'm bad about time ( I was tipsy), but after midnight I think.

Here is the room:



I posted IWSJ above, but here is a different shot of the fountain and us:


Here I'm at Michael Jordan's with JM3! Very nice place!:


Can you tell I like purple/blue? You're right, I should have got more though. The first night was mostly poker and spa for me though, and PPG, JM3 and I played. Beata said hi, but she plays balla stakes!
