When did Eismann show up?

I can honestly say I don't think I'd try it even if it was legal. Just doesn't seem like a smart thing to do, ya know?
when it's legal, it's your prerogative not to try it, but it might behoove you to look into it a little before making up your mind. the traditional reasons for it being not "a smart thing to do" are all either completely false or don't apply to adults using it responsibly.

just for discussion sake, are there any specific concerns you have?

Nope, it just never appealed to me. I tend to have an open mind about the science of things and listen to both sides, but smoking anything just never seemed to be a thing I'd try. Not even having a cigar with my old man appealed to me, ya know? I'd rather have a beer while I shoot the breeze.

You do realize there are many more ways to ingest THC than smoking, right?

The few times I've ever done it, I just go into endless fits of giggles. To the point my face hurts.

If it were legal I would probably never smoke it again. THC oil dropped into a beer or a cuppa tea at the end of the day would suffice.

if it were legal, i'd oscillate between dry herb vaporizer and some sort of tincture.

if i ever got seriously ill, i would get/make the pure extract and take daily super-potent doses.

I would enjoy knowing exactly how much active ingredient I'm ingesting.

Oh boy...

I can't even explain the contradiction in your post.

Wait, does that make this a gateway thread?

I haven't smoked in years. Took a couple of trips to Amsterdam in my 20's. Now those were interesting.

Ordered the same meal in Burger King from the same person 3 times in the same day.

Yes, I know that much, but I think I'm not expressing my opinion in the correct form. I'm not against it in any way, shape, or form; but I've never felt that it's something for me, personally. I just have no desire whatsoever to try it either, and I'm usually open to try anything once.

I wonder how many 5AF's are high right now

Supreme Court Curbs Drug-Sniffing Dogs During Traffic Stops

http://www.wsj.com/articles/supreme-cou ... 1429645869

“We hold that a police stop exceeding the time needed to handle the matter for which the stop was made violates the Constitution’s shield against unreasonable seizures,” Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg wrote for the majority. She was joined by Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Antonin Scalia, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.

“A seizure for a traffic violation justifies a police investigation of that violation,” Justice Ginsburg wrote. While the court has allowed police to take certain actions in a traffic stop that go beyond its narrow purpose, such as requiring motorists to exit their vehicles, those have been closely tied to officer safety or other practical needs, she said.

Marijuana Reform Activists Push for Change with DEA Head

http://time.com/3831647/michele-leonhart-dea-marijuana/

The resignation of Chief of Administration Michele Leonhart offers the chance for change

Leonhart has been a major hurdle in the effort to reconsider marijuana as a Schedule 1 substance, which could pave the way for more research into the health benefits of the drug. In 2011, the agency again rejected a petition to reschedule marijuana. According to the Drug Policy Alliance, the agency spent about $100 million in 2012 alone on enforcement regarding medical marijuana laws...

“Leonhart opposed medical marijuana, she opposed sentencing reform, she opposed pretty much everything that Obama was doing and for that matter everything Congress was doing,” says Bill Piper, the director of National Affairs at the Drug Policy Alliance.

Leonhart is just a mouth piece. Someone this stupid isn't driving policy.

I take responsibility and I know the risks for my "vitamin" use

Millions of Americans digesting harmful amounts of herbicides that are undeniably linked to the outbreak of auto immune disease isn't really comparable

Inflammation is linked to all sorts of psych issues which destroy quality of life and it's unfortunate that people go through most of their lives without even understanding that the government doesn't give a Frick about you or your health

"I trust the fda, yay food pyramid "

Lol makes me sad
