Again, L-Pink you are smarter than this post (perhaps not on this point?). I did not say weed should be legal JUST BECAUSE it is natural. My point (and you know it) was that the arguments AGAINST weed are so superscilious and filled with DOOM that's it's unrealistic propaganda. The fact that weed grows naturally all over the world, and people do NOT die from it, is a strong argument FOR it, especially when compared to pharmaceuticals and other man-made "cures". C'mon now.

Not one person has made that argument.
I have no problem with marijuana. I probably have more marijuana domains than anyone in this thread, maybe even on this board. I just think you guys make silly arguments when there are much better arguments to make.  |
I won't get into a semantic arguemtn wit you Sly so I will concede the point that my thread does 'defend' the use of marijuana.
However, L-Pink and others are going the other direction, saying just because it's natural doesn't make it ok. Well again, weed is NOT poisonous and is far, far less so than the chemicals people put in their bodies on a regular basis. So rejecting weed because it's natural and grows freely everywhere without deaths associated with it, thinking somehow that weed's naturalness is a negative, is silly to me and NOT a reasoned argument against its' use.
