Anything that is not made by God for us to eat, including some rare herbal supplements found in health food stores, and all types of drugs, junk foods, sugar and butter substitutes, most commercially produced meats and milk, most tap water and household cleaning chemicals, most all the toxins in vaccines, air fresheners, aerosols, some cosmetics, paints etc, man-made junk, tons of scientific journals, studies and research prove, are ALL very toxic poisons.

That depends. Is it working?
There’s lots of people being caught, but the war on child abuse apparently doesn’t cover the Priesthood. Exactly how much work is being done?
June 7th, 2010 - 03:56
what about the war on child pornography?
June 7th, 2010 - 04:23
I support LEGALIZATION and regulation. But not advertising still something to think about w/ kids.

The far right Christian right does not think that marijuana is the ‘demon seed’ or even the worst drug.
Having said that it certainly has been true that many people first start getting high on marijuana because it is touted as very safe and harmless.
Later you can find something a lot more mind-numbing or tailored for you but at least you started slow.
Hey is Bill Maher criticizing people for getting high on Oxycontin or why are people scoffing at it like its a bad thing?

@sedatedcoho I would be inclined to agree with you there, prohabition does nothing other than drive the power into the underground were it can be abused.

fuckin a
June 7th, 2010 - 07:44
that’s right Bill, expose the hypocrisy brother
June 7th, 2010 - 08:00
The war on ANYTHING is just bullshit.
June 7th, 2010 - 08:12
hahaha good point.

I also want to add that drugs in the western world and the way drugs are percieved are a matter of, well, exactly that – PERCEPTION.
In some non-western countries (I can’t remember which ones) you have grandma and grandpa smoking opium and the kids don’t touch it because it is considered not cool and only for old people.

The ‘war on drugs’ is baseless and fear-mongering at its very best.
Put simply, you take away the black markets main source (drugs), legalise them, make them safer to consume and tax it to generate revenue of which would go back into society to fund the health system.
Of course it is predictable a percentage will become addicts but atleast they won’t be committing crimes to score for their next hit and the tax can be used for rehabilitation.

a 100 dead children for dark side on the moon … he he he I hear you bill!!!

yo this is super boring

Seems that most pharmaceutical ads on TV clearly warn of dire side effects that are usually worse than the ailment they treat. Odd trade-off in “the war on drugs”.

@piddleton Agreed, but it should still be legal for adults to grow and use as they please. I mean marijuana may change your brain chemistry, but unlike the legal drug alcohol, it doesn’t actually kill your brain cells, or hundreds of thousands of people a year for that matter.

@BillKiernan Yea man, just a bit hypocritical? I just don’t understand how he ingested that amount of painkillers and was still that angry and paranoid all the time.
June 7th, 2010 - 13:27
i had no idea limbaugh was doing 30 oxycotins a day, holy shit. he was actually doing his show on it?
June 7th, 2010 - 13:42
Personally i think cannibis is less dangerous than alcohol or smoking.. and i use it myself sometimes. But people should not be so obtuse about its potential to cause harm. It is a powerful drug that changes the chemistry in the brain. This should not be taken lightly.
June 7th, 2010 - 14:29
True although the link isn’t precise there is enough circumstantial evidence to make psychiatrists worried about the harmful effects of cannabis. How long will we have to wait until a clear and precise link is established when we know so little about how the brain works? In the mean time the wards are full with people suffering from drug induced psychosis. I should know, i worked on a mental health ward where i met them, and a friend developed a psychosis after smoking far too much cannibis.
June 7th, 2010 - 14:35
Correct me if i’m wrong on this, but I thought there was still an issue of proving causality between cannabis and psychosis. Just because people who smoke cannabis are more likely to show symptoms of psychosis, this doesn’t mean that cannabis causes psychosis. Has there been a controlled test in which a large sample group are administered cannabis over an extended period of time?
Until such a test is done, no conclusions can be assumed Im not doubting the link, but the science has to be precise
June 7th, 2010 - 15:12
of course i completely agree but it isn’t as though come with a list of dos and don’ts when we are born. People only discover whether cannibis is bad for them through trial and error. I have never had a problem with it but a friend of mine completely lost the plot and became permanently paranoid
June 7th, 2010 - 15:23
thats only people who are prone to it and to be honest i would rather have short term psychosis than alcohol related disease
June 7th, 2010 - 16:06
hah, oxycontin…
but holy shit that’s a lot. lmfao
June 7th, 2010 - 16:39
answered your own question, ENORMOUS. how aBout enormous alcohol users are healthy, if its not used everyday excessivley for 10-15 years this drug is pretty near harmless
