I guess you could make those comparisons with alcohol, but that supposes that alcohol is also a drug. I would define a drug as being pharmaceutical or synthetic. Things which occur in their natural state may not necessarily be safe (i'm think poisonous plants or jimson weed which fucks up the mind) but they are not necessarily drugs.

There are many definitions for drugs, I'm not using that one and, no offense, but I think it's slightly disingenuous.

A true addict does not even consider pot a drug.

Weed IS a plant
Cocaine is very chemically altered before it IS cocaine.

word. thats my point above about defining drugs as pharmaceutical or synthetic.

this does not IMPLY SAFETY or SIMPLICITY, it just implies naturalness.

A plant can be dangerous. It can kill you in seconds. It can get you pleasantly high, or it can destroy your mind in a psychotic wasteland. Alcohol is perhaps the most dangerous substance we have ever devised, it kills tens of thousands of people a year through disease, accidents etc etc. Half of all shootings in America are alcohol related.. it is a terrible substance, but it plant based, it is relatively natural, and therefore it has its purpose. DRUGS on the other hand, tend to be man-made, synthetic and have no necessary purpose with a WICKED amount of side-effects.

I don't recommend people get out of their envelope with anything, plant or drug or otherwise, but I DEFINITELY do not promote drug use. Its just not my thing (this includes heroin, cocaine, vicodin, xanax, valium, etc etc)

These things are EVEN MORE DANGEROUS when used as a supposed medicine. I don't trust any substance that I can't just stop taking. With anti-depressants/anti-anxiety drugs you CAN'T just STOP taking them, you have to gradually step down. That shit is scary. And its similar with many pharmaceuticals.. they are mind-altering in a FAR more sinister way.. plus who sells this shit to us? I'll take a street pusher over a big rx company salesman any day of the week!

hey, why'd you call me pathetic then?

so does cocaine, heroin, so does LSD

the difference is that when you make heroin and coke and acid and crack it goes thru 9467076047 chem processes

you know how you make weed? dry the shit out and blaze up.

one of the worst tragedies is when they have to take something that is pure and natural like mary jane and lace the shit out of it.

that used to happen all the time in new york.

but kids would actually be looking for that laced shit.

one dealer that served my high school laced his shit with the big h.

and the kids went crazy......

no joke.

Satan 08.19.2009 01:13 PM

that's why you don't buy from sketchballs. have a dealer you know and trust.

that being said there is nothing better than a blunt of the good shit laced with dope.
