But if everyone is a consenting adult, I don't want somebody else telling me what I can do with my body (and remember: I've seen the dark side)   lead to disaster= yes, even marihuana can lead to disaster, to psychological dependence (it doesn't generate physical addiction as other drugs do).   But this still doesn't prove that drugs are a big L if you are beyond 20. Actually, beyond 20 should be the LEGAL AGE to decide whether you do it or not.... All of these arguments just prove that drugs are dangerous, an unnecesary risk, whatever... not the big L.

I've never witnessed a "healthy" case of user. The big "L", actually stands for unclean and unclear individuals that, as I told before, see no danger in smoking before driving his girlfriend somewhere, etc. Off course, adiction is something from the psique first, and in the body later, so you can be adicted to food, games, etc. Anyway, after a certain age and a certain amount of use, something is wrong. I don't need to explain this further, the people who had a strong habit (as myself, I use to be a tobacco smoker) knows pretty well what's like to be unable to stay one day without smoking, drinking, etc. If you reach a point of having no control over an impulse, then my friend you are a loser, a person with no inner strenght. That's the way I used to talk to myself, and also the attitude that is helping me to never touch a cigarette again.

Why should losers have all the fun?

I second that.

I was in a pipe and tabacco shop in Austin,TX when two skater-kids came in and asked (without hesitation) to buy a bong. The guy behind the counter looked at me, then at the kids and just laughed. A friend of mine tried to buy Rizzlas (rolling papers) in a shop in Denver. She said the assistant was so angry with her for asking, she thought he was going to throw her out or call the police! I had a similar experience in a Model Shop - I  went in for some plastic cement to glue my Psion PDA back together - the sales assistant took one look at me (long hair, goatee beard, Dimmu Bogir shirt, black nail polish) and went into a blind panic.

I wouldn't serve you, looking like that either!
