annnnd... if you people would read up on history you would know that back then weed wasnt grown for the purpose of gettin high, they used to make rope and clothes from it... and whoever said God is okay with weed should read the bible. it says you shouldnt harm your body in any sort of way or enchance your mind. HA

I'm a 14 year old teenager and i think that pot should be grown and smoked and used for anything that it is useful for. i love smoking and i think it's great because i isn't like meth or coke or heroin it's a all natural drug that God himself put on this planet for us :)

Marijuana is not as acceptable as beer, and should not be legalized. Furthermore, not everyone likes, loves, or approves of marijuana. George Washington grew marijuana (who knows if that's even true or not) before research had been done about its ill effects, which is different from you people continuing to use it even though it may cause lung cancer, diminished brain cell density, and may be contaminated with any number of hazardous or toxic chemicals. You people are ****s.

You need to do your research! George Washington did grow hemp which is where marijuana grows from. If you look in some of Washingtons writings he definitely talks about growing hemp and keeping certain strands of seeds for his "own purposes". (If you don't believe me you can read it for yourself: "Writings of Washington" Volume 35 page 72)

Dig it, i researched my **** and got my stuff together. And to be honest it is similar in effect to beer, you obviously have never smoked pot. And yes, everyone who has tried it enjoys it after about 4 tries... similar again to beer I particularly don't like beer but again i've only drank not even a couple beers and isn't it an aquired taste???

I just hate to humiliate your ignorance like this... and i'm only 20 years old. I got my life together, i'm going to be a music teacher in College and I'm a christian and believe Jesus Christ died for me. I've never been so happy with my life.

Enjoy everyone.

smoke the reefer :P
