Personally I'm tired of all the pot heads coming to these forums (which are frequented by teenagers who don't need such an influence in their life) singing the glories of marijuana. It's against the Code of Conduct yet nothing ever happens, why?
[quote]Stuff That Sucks
Personal attacks, harassment, or violations of privacy.
Disrespect based on race, creed, gender, orientation, or disability.
Depiction or description of gory violence or explicit sexuality.
[u][i][b]Breaking the law, plotting, or describing illegal activities.[/b][/i][/u]
Spoiling games with hacks, cheats, or unreleased story details.
Distributing unauthorized, copyrighted, or trademarked material.
Soliciting, plagiarism, phishing, or impersonating other users.[/quote]Pot is illegal at the Federal level which means it is illegal at the state level. Look it up, Article 6, Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution. [quote]This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding.[/quote]In lay terms, a state's constitution has to match the spirit of Federal law. The Federal government can raid any state that claims it is legal in a heart beat because it is still quite illegal.
Edit: People really need to learn what "Freedom of Speech" means. Do they not teach this stuff in school anymore? Back in my day we had to pass a test before being allowed into secondary school that shows you understand the Constitution.
Edit 2: Due to all the GOP bashing let it be known I am incredibly far left on the political spectrum. Just because I do not condone illegal and destructive behaviors does not make me a right-wing extremist.

5 RepliesMarijuana can cause anxiety and panic attacks. Which can cause people to lash out. It also can cause people to become depressed and suicidal. Long term use of marijuana results in lack of ability to learn and retain information, lack of motivation, and it suppresses the immune system. I believe it was 40% of adult males test positive for marijuana upon arrest. Long term use can also lead to brain abnormalities. It is the second most found intoxicant in fatal car crashes and is the main gateway drug. But hey, if you want to live in the "it's harmless" world. So be it.

Because it is socially accepted...you are a minority in this case...I'm an addict, and I know what the THC toxin does to my body, my brain chemistry, my personality, and most def holds me back in life...but in about 3 mins I won't care...and that's the point...

12 RepliesPot is no big deal. How many people die from marijuana every year? Oh yeah, None. Yet it's still illegal in some states and at a federal level. But how many lives does alcohol clam every year? Thousands upon thousands. But yet it's perfectly legal. Marihuana helps so many people with chronic pain, chronic nausea from cancer and other diseases. And in regards to influence I know many people that are very successful, respectful, responsible, and kind that use marijuana. Can you say the same about people you know that are alcoholics? Do you ever hear about abusive parents that use marijuana? Hell no.

So is your problem weed is currently illegal or being exposed to children. Do you feel the same about alcohol?

"It's illegal on a federal level which means it's illegal on a state level" Wrong. State laws and federal laws can contradict eachother. Weed is perfectly legal in Colorado. Nobody who works for the state of Colorado can arrest you for possessing it legally. Federal agents IN the state can arrest you for it however. Just because federal law trumps state law doesn't mean states have to listen to it.

Shut up and give your arse a chance ffs.

Edited by Reaper: 5/20/2015 1:13:56 AMI bet this person believed the propaganda stating that smoking pot will give you the munchies and you could end up eating your own children....... Some not All of you Americans are that disillusioned with your own belief system. I can't wait for the fall of religion and the beginning of the age of reason. Religion is only good for three things: 1 - Starting wars 2 - Keeping people sober 3 - Making life boring as hell (no pun intended) Also the term 'addicts' doesn't really fit for your title, as weed the main culprit here, is not physically addictive, for people with weak minds, maybe, but hey survival of the fittest....

Oh dear... What is this world coming to. Not everybody is bound by American laws and who cares if someone talks about there lifestyle, is it affecting you? I'm from the UK, should I make a post about Americans cutting down on the salt intake of their diets? No, I wouldn't do that cause it's your lifestyle, if someone wants to eat them selves to death go for it, if someone wants to talk about getting high, go for it. Who cares, nobody has to read this sh!t but I can bet you will read it AND reply...

Im not governed by your laws.

7 RepliesI must be completely stoned because I have no clue what this has to do with a video game. While your are entitled to freedom of speech you may not want to use it to be an idiot. You should actually do some research on why its illegal rather than the fact that it is. While doing this research you should look at how many people did from marijuana every year compared to the amount that die from perfectly legal alcohol or even caffeine. Marijuana is a plant that needs nothing done to it besides adding heat when alcohol has to be made by man. The affects of alcohol last for hours poisoning the body while marijuanas effects last an hour or so and release natural endorphins also not destroying the immune system and brain cells despite what you might have been told. BOOOM!!! YOU JUST GOT SERVED BY A "Stoner". Also I must ask what you are going to do in 5 to 10 years when its 100% legal?

Edited by Toc Dabbers: 5/20/2015 5:31:26 AMBack in my day... If our founding fathers could see what shit the federal government has become, they would be appalled. We came here to escape tyrants. It's a plant, It is a personal decision. The law is wrong. And as far as coc goes, where are bungies headquarters? O in the fine state of Washington.... Pot just so happens to be legal there.

1 ReplyI see the problem here. You seem to think yours is the only country on earth. Stop whinging you dumb American. Pot is legal in many countries. Not your backwards one obviously but many others so please shut up. No one likes a whinger.

15 RepliesI'm nineteen, and ever since I became of age I've been smoking cigars like a -blam!-ing freight train. I've smoked weed, pills, cough syrup, all that good stuff. The only one I could ever condone is weed. Everyone's bad habits are their own. Give it up.
-
If the founding fathers could see our government now they would lead a brand new revolution. I agree that young kids and teens need positive influences not negative ones. But they also need honesty and all the propaganda that they shoved down my throat growing up was a million times worse.

This man thinks some Mary J will kill someone... He's the real problem. Lmfaoooo

Are you that much of an immature child? Do you have to look at what someone posts? No. Ignore it and move on. Who cares if someone talks about pot. Does it affect your gaming? No. You're a little immature for this post and extremely idiotic.
