Has anyone made the ''Hey baby, what you doing out on the street corner at 2 in the morning?'' joke yet? I'm too lazy to go though it all.
Oh you're so getting blocked for that!flaming_squirrel said:Blocking people who do not agree with you and then telling them that they're blocked is not a particularly mature or clever way of going about forum use..Cassita said:Cool, another statement so ridiculous that I get to block you and don't have to bother with an argument.dastardly said:Se's proof that people shouldn't be allowed to have kids without taking a test or something.
Eugenics - supporting it makes you a bad person.
You're blocked.
Don't bother replying.
I don't care.
DOOD, YOU ARE TOTALLY RIGHT, LETS GRAB THAT SHIT BEFORE THAT DAMN KID SMOKES IT ALL!Burwood123 said:SHE'S WASTING WEED
I never expected this kind of reaction to the thread I postedAugustFall said:This is pretty shocking, not because it's pot but because it's smoke in general. Pot should be legal but developing minds and bodies need to be protected from potentially harmful substances by their parents, not given them.
Hopefully the child is given to parents fit to raise it.
And wow talk about bile in this thread, I truly didn't think extreme liberalism could offend me as much as extreme republicanism but wow (referring to a certain suspended poster).
She's probably just having a bad day and became an idiot. We've all done it. However, I don't know her posting history so maybe she is just a dedicated troll.Demented Teddy said:793 posts...she's a very dedicated troll if she is indeed one.
Key word is "could", what you are describing is all theoretical, and is to my knowledge not proven in any way.Starke said:In practice, you're mostly right. Human beings under the age of about six are idiotically resistant to physical trauma, including head wounds. (Fun fact, if you lop off a toddler's finger up to the first knuckle, the finger will regenerate, complete with a new nail (unless you cauterize the wound.))Primate said:Except for the fact that while the kiddo is at that age, the brain is so active that is "self heals" almost all injuries any ways.Angerwing said:Except mind altering substances given to a toddler when their brain is actually forming is fucking stupid and can fuck them up severely. Not to mention the fact that they're inhaling smoke. The danger of the smoke is debatable, but the fact that smoke is going into the infants lungs is true, which is still fucking despicable.Cassita said:Funny, considering no one has ever died from pot.
Ever.
Oh wait, that's right, it's not taxed.
Go back to drinking and smoking, people, nothing to see here.
Which is why a kid that age taking a nasty blow to the head ( example : falling down stairs ) will 99% of the time not gain any permanent injuries, except it will produce a screaming kiddo.
Now, that's physical trauma. Chemical trauma is a different story altogether. When it comes to the effect of various chemicals on the brain, a child's mind is extremely susceptible. And chemical exposure at that age can alter at a very fundamental level how the brain develops.
Holy crap. Strawman anyone? I've read the thread, so I see others have already argued my points, so I won't bother.Cassita said:Oh I see.Angerwing said:Except mind altering substances given to a toddler when their brain is actually forming is fucking stupid and can fuck them up severely.

Shoot, guess everyone better have their baby in a bubble, aye.
I didn't ignore you by the way. I was at work for over 12 hours, so I didn't get a chance to respond. Anyway, basically everything I have to say has been said, so I shall say no more.Primate said:Key word is "could", what you are describing is all theoretical, and is to my knowledge not proven in any way.Starke said:In practice, you're mostly right.

Therefore, I can't really see how we can take that into account..
However, Kudos to you sir, I was expecting a nasty response to my post, and you responded in a very polite manner.
People have died from smoking pot, trust me, I've done the research.Cassita said:Funny, considering no one has ever died from pot.

Go on then, show a single example of someone overdosing on pot in the 4000 recorded years of its use from your research, it was estimated that an average of the amount of 20000 spliffs in about 20 minutes is barely enough to kill you, THC wouldnt even be the thing killing you, it would be low blood pressure caused by it.Megacherv said:People have died from smoking pot, trust me, I've done the research.Cassita said:Funny, considering no one has ever died from pot.

I don't know who proved it, I do know that many researchers have researched after the effects of pot, and came up with the fact that it's very addictive [not for all but for most] (duh) and I know that smoking pot slows down the process of dividing brain cells, leaving you with less brain cells when you are 20-something.. 23 I think. The brain grows fastest before 18, so they banned it before 18. After 18 the effect is much smaller, almost undetectable (too little to notice during tests and MRIs).AndyFromMonday said:In what way and who proved this?mageroel said:It is proven that smoking pot is indeed bad for children, as it disrupts their growing brain. This is why it is forbidden for all people younger than 18 in Holland... otherwise we'd have it legal for babies too.
Very addictive? Look, dude, if you want to support your point then do so by linking to actual studies instead of just claiming crap. I mean by your logic I can say bread is addictive then instead of citing sources I'll just say "many/some researchers".mageroel said:I don't know who proved it, I do know that many researchers have researched after the effects of pot, and came up with the fact that it's very addictive [not for all but for most] (duh) and I know that smoking pot slows down the process of dividing brain cells, leaving you with less brain cells when you are 20-something.. 23 I think.
