Since Barman thinks this justifies his illegal behavior, I figured
let's try and justify herion, crack, and meth in the same
manner.

Hitler was a meth addict, must be A-OK huh Barman?

:grandmais:grandmais

Famous Meth Addicts
Crystal Meth has rapidly become a hot drug at Hollywood parties. However, long before it got to Tinseltown, Adolf Hitler was given meth by his personal physician during the final three years of his life.
Troubled actor Tom Sizemore says in a statement during his court sentencing that he was introduced to meth by famous Hollywood madame Heidi Fleiss.
Fergie, the female voice of the Black Eyed Peas, told US magazine Time that meth 'was the hardest boyfriend I ever had to break up with.'

So you must be all for outlawing alcohol right? Unlike Cannabis, Alcohol can and does kill many people.

As far as Charlie Parker goes...I much prefer his music while he was on the Junk...same goes for Chet Baker and John Coltrane

Zit, don't you even notice that you totally missed the point here? Barman's point was that there is a large number of people who used Marijuana for a long time and still had successful lifes and were an asset to society. This is, of course, is not true for the people you mentioned, which only shows the huge difference between Marijuana and hard drugs.

It seems to me you proved Barman's point admirably, even though that was probably not quite your intention.

Preussen,

Get a life. Your lame rhetoric on here is boring me.

I could make your same argument about "successful lives" of coke, meth
and heroin addicts. I posted the *facts* of the effects of marijuana
on the body. You can continue to ignore them if you like.

It is also illegal in this country, unless you have a medical marijuana
card, which barman does not have.

You rail against abortion which is legal in your country...shouldn't other people be given the same rights to fight against that of which they don't believe in?

I'm not a big fan of marijuana, or any other drugs for that matter. With that said, who cares if he likes to smoke pot in his freetime? It's much better for you than alcohol.

For one, it is illegal - so that makes barman a criminal.

He does that pretty routinely, but I think he's honestly and blissfully unaware he does so.

Yes? Then please do. Please list people who were using meth and heroin and still had long, successful and productive lives. I'm waiting...

ZIT declares: It is also illegal in this country, unless you have a medical marijuana
card, which barman does not have.

SH: One does not need a "medical marijuana card" except in a couple of the states which permit legal use of medical marijuana.

I am legally permitted to use medical marijuana in the states of CA, OR, WA, AZ, CO, AK, HI and also of course in Canada.

Florida permits an affirmative medical defense if arrested, but fortunately that can't happen to me unless a police officer himself breaks the law.
