Thats unforunately an incorrect assessment. Not being a prick. Let drugs be unappealing, but to think that you have no control over yourself is false.Griever18 said:Drugs are so unappealing to me, the whole sensation of having no control over yourself.
On a completely separate note, I think folks get much too upset over the whole controlled substance scenario. American forefathers were required by law to grow hemp, which although not psychoactive, is still a member of the cannabis family. It was considered a patriot's duty. Soon as the conservatives caught wind that people found a variation of the plant that could make people feel good (and that they couldn't make any money from it) they determinedly outlawed it and smeared it so horribly that it may never recover.
I think the biggest irony here, is that I don't smoke weed or salvia and I don't drink, or take heavier drugs, but I have. For years. And I've seen the effects of all of it first hand, and know which is worse.
The reason that those old "scientific studies" are around boasting the negative effects of this herb or plant, is primarily because taxation on a plant product that is to become mass produced is hard.
Right wingers feel that its "Bad", because it allows people to experience free thought on their own.
Hell the only reason that pot isn't legal in Canada is because we didn't want repubs up the arse, blaming Canada for ruining their youth.
