"... a thought to all those people who think pot is ok.
90% of all people on psychiatric wards are or were in the past heavy pot smokers.
smoking pot leads to other use of other "heavier" drugs. "
___________________________________________________________________
Since everyone has already suggested taking chill pills and getting senses of humor, i won't repeat those suggestions.
i just wanted to state that the above statistic made me laugh. 90% of psych ward patients used pot... no sh*t, it's because 90% of the world population uses/used pot. Thats like saying that 90% of all people on psychiatric wards have taken a piss somewhere other than a toilet... give me a small break.
And, the word "heavy" is relative.
Not to mention the "gateway" drug bs. i have plenty of friends who smoke pot everyday, but would never touch something "heavier". i have friends who do "heavier" drugs as well, and i don't think any of them would list marajuana as their "gateway". I think it would be something more along the lines of, stress, boredom, depression...
It's like the square is always a rectangle, but rectangle not always a square thing... People who use "heavy" drugs have all smoked pot, because... (refer *lol, no pun intended* to my above "statistic") but that doesn't mean people who smoke pot will always dive further into drugs.
i leave with this in mind... Lighten the hell up! Life is too short to get all up in arms about a bunch of people you probably don't give a damn about talking about something you don't agree with. If you don't like it, don't look. No excuses about back to back posts raising curiosity... You asked to be dicgusted the second you opened a post you knew you wouldn't like, and no one put a gun to your head to make you read the whole thread, you could have stopped and abruptly ended your shock and disgust whenever you wanted to.
Peace man, peace.
