to high people while driving.

meh its w/e they had regulations in for what they were tryin to pass in california you would have to be 21 and you could only get a certain amount, it would be treated like alcohol, and alcohol is way worse for you not to mention at 21 which woulda been the same age for weed, you have way more access to alc everywhere..

yeah BUT....there is difference between street drugs, and medicine doctors prescribe.  lets not be black and white please, it's 2011.


Doctors can prescribe most street drugs with the Exception of Crack, Heroin(if not in England) and most/all of the Hallucinogens.

So i don't see your point.

What is the difference other than the legality of them? Keep in mind, the legality of pharmaceuticals is always changing, as companies always try to push out new "experimental" drugs (meaning not fully tested), and the FDA is a joke.

Inhaling any form of combusted plant material is bad for you. You fail to realize that smoking cannabis isn't the only way to consume it.

yep, alters your mind

its a drug


i just want to point out that "alters your mind" is not the definition of a drug.

this is the definition of a drug.

"A substance that has a physiological effect when ingested or otherwise introduced into the body"
