In fact you seem a very nice, and a good hearted sort, who at least trys to keep an open mind. Though I'm afraid we'll never see certain things in the same way, but that's just life.

Kestrelx on the other hand is a different matter.

For someone to use a public, family, internet forum, to extol the pleasures to be had from taking recreational drugs, boasting about taking illegal narcotics including L.S.D. and heroin, and with no long-term effects to himself, luckily I believe, was both a stupid, and dangerous thing to post on Accy Web, and it disgusts me that a few pro-decriminalisation supporters fail to see this too.

It sickens me what he posted, and nothing I've read since will change my mind on this issue either.

Cannabis that is in the solid form is far more scary a thought(chemicals they could be putting into their bodies) From heresay that isn't as popular now as it was 15 years ago. I didn't know then that it was filled with all kinds of stuff. People smoke that for a long period of time and who knows what condition their mind would be in.

Had to google it again. I have most likely posted this before. But I think its relevant if studies were made whilst people were smoking stuff like this...

Here is a list of what has been found inside sold form cannabis-- Beeswax, turpentine, milk powder, ketamine, boot polish, henna, pine resin, aspirin, animal turds, ground coffee, barbiturates, glues and dyes plus carcinogenic solvents such as Toluene and Benzene

Sobering thought.

In 2000 I made the concious decision to leave drugs behind. It is a touchy subject and It is a hard choice which side to come on. I don't think drugs should be legalised. But maintain the opinion that addicts are sick and that they need help. I also think that cannabis should be thought of in the same light as alcohol. As you say there is always risk. There is certainly a lot more risk drinking alcohol.



Perhaps I will go and mix my drink instead. (in this case bourbon and coke)

I don't hate anyone.

Such a waste of time, and energy.

He too is probably sound as a pound.

I don't know anything about him, other than what he's said publicly.

I think what he posted was potentially dangerous, and stupid.

I rather think he isn't.

We'd probably get on if we met.

I've yet to meet anyone from this forum, and it's lots, who I haven't got on with.

Keep the conversation to punk, and not pot...get on like a crack den on fire.

:rolleyes::D

I never saw the post he made boasting about taking heroin and LSD. If I did I don't remember it.

One of the worst I have seen on here. Thankfully it seems that no violent psychos have joined. I only have concerns for people that might think they can say anything on a website without it backfiring.




Shouldn't this also be the same with drinking alcohol? pedantic question I know. But. If kids are reading the forum, then should we have a ban of all talk about drug use on a whole? or at least keep it to the 18+ section. Like hiding the cigarettes in the supermarkets

If drugs were legalized, overnite the cartels would be out of business. Making drugs illegal is little more than sweeping a problem under the carpet. Control and supervision is possible and workable (hate that word for some reason:rolleyes:) Here are some decent arguments for and against needle parks:

Only in Canada, eh.:D
