you mean like comparing a legal liquid you drink to a plant we smoke? you be real. my comparison is just as valid as the weed to alcohol comparison.

I dont care if its legal or not, my point is that alot of people think pot is "so bad" "ruins your life" well shit check out my reference page, I am a very reputable seller. Weed hasnt altered my brain to "scam" anyone

im jus in retail but thats beside sthe point....my stepdad makes 400K a year n hes never cheate d a drug test n he smokes weed....more often than not upscale white collar jobs DONT drug test....ur local best buy prolly does tho

I guess my job would be considered an "upscale white collar job" and I did "cheat" my drug test to get here. No one here knows I smoke and have no reason to suspect so. I go above and beyond what is asked of me, but if they knew I smoked, I probably wouldn't have a job. simple as that.

If I am correct (correct me if I am wrong) but there are risk with alcohol and they can be harmful, so why isnt alcohol illegal?

Correct, there are risks with alcohol just as there are with weed. The honest risks with weed need to be laid out and show that the average person has the capacity to make the personal choice to smoke for themselves without the world coming to an end.

I think its an easy argument to win, unfortunately all day smokers and your typical stoner mentality type saying "weed don't effect me no how" doesn't help anything along.

dude i aint even in the legalization movement...whether its legal or not imma smoke....im jus sayin theres nothin wrong with smokin weed...point blank period

you aren't getting it. point blank period? is that supposed to stop an argument you can't win? i'll be rollin' a joint tonight, as i do every night, but it's still gonna be illegal. that's what should change. living in a pot fairy land will only hurt the chance of that.

You work in retail kid. I have a real job, I'd prefer to keep it that way.

So you are willing to risk your "upscale white collar job" just so you can smoke some pot....whats that say

That's true, I do take that risk.

it's an invalid comparison either way. what's so confusing? i could compare anything to anything, which is what people think when they hear your argument. comparing weed to anything but weed isn't valid.

Ya but weed and alcohol are similiar. You drink 5 beers your drunk for an hour or 2 then your back to normal. You smoke a joint your high for 1-2 hours then your high is off and your back to normal.....
