I hate to tell you this man, but it wasn't marijuana that made you feel like that...it was yourself. It is about time people realize that there is MEDICAL PROOF that marijuanna is no more dangerous (and actually less dangerous) than tobacco and alcohol. Pot doesn't "mess with your mind" in fact it does nothing to it. It does not make you stupid and unlike what you propaganda spreading teachers or drug rehabbers may have told you...it does not kill brain cells. MEDICAL PROOF once again. And even if it did (which it does not) unlike what those same teachers may have told you, we do grow brain cells. In fact, just the act of running builds brain cells, not to mention those pesky final exams.

I am sorry that your life took a turn for the worse after smoking pot. But it wasn't the pot that made you a loser...it was you. Just like when people say pot made them a slut. Stop blaming everything on a little plant. We human beings are supposed to be a lot smarter than a little plant. Little plants don't run the world...we do. It is about time we stop blaming our faults on everyone else and not on drugs, society, and other people. Wake the fuck up!

I do not however condone smoking...pot, tobacco, or crack. You shouldn't smoke, drink, or eat high fat foods. But we all do. Sometimes a beer or a joint can help us relax after a hard day at work or school. Although it might not be healthy, everything must be in moderation. Then sometimes it is even good for you.

So...moral of the story is this...let's take responsibility for our actions and stop mis-informing everyone else.

Thanks!
