i was talking to some old men last night at the pool hall here in town, and they got to talking about some gas station that got robbed last week, and some old guy said "yeah and he was probobly high on pot". so i asked him why he would think that just because somebody is stoned that they would go and do something like that. it ended up being this big argument with me and them over what weed does to a person. they of course think that pot, dope, weed, and marijuana is all differant things . they had to put their shit in there that "all that shit does is make you think stupid and do stupid stuff like rob stores and kill people". after about 20 minutes of hearing this crap, i asked them if they had ever heard of the huge mass murder in amsterdam back in 89, or all the rapings and robberies in jamaca last year. of course they said no, and i had to explain to them that the crime rate in the countries that its legal is next to nothing. why they asked? because everybody is too stoned to give a shit. i also told them that if it was legal here it would drop the crime rate also, and probobly drop the usage of other drugs as well. they then had to ask about all the people who have died smoking it...so i said "what people?" i never heard of one person who has died from a weed overdose . i hate people who talk shit about the herbs when they have never smoked it or done their homework on it. they see those stupid ass commercials and think that its a killer. pot is safer than cigarettes for gods sake .
