Maybe, I haven't been posting here regularly enough to really get anyones "personality" figured out yet.

I also wont say im more qualified than someone else to discuss things, unless they are just being absolutely ridiculous. For the most part I think we all have our strengths and weaknesses when it comes to debating issues.

As for myself I just try to stay unbiased and open minded to the points that the other person im talking to are trying to make. I mean ive been wrong before countless times in my life and if someone can prove that im wrong, I have no problems changing my mind.

And thats honestly why im here, and hopefully thats why more people are here as well....And yes I also want to educated people on things that I know im right about, if they are disagreeing with me.

Marijuana would be one of those things lol.

the issue of pot is hard one because there really are 2 sides to the coin. On the one hand, pot does have a extreme effect on very few people, even so much that schizophrenia can develop.

However, having that said, pot is less destructive to the most then for exampel alcohol and tabacco.

Furthermore, law's like in the Netherlands has already showed that allowing pot not only reduces the amount of druggies, but also helps reduce the amount of harddrugs users. The reason behind this is that, in countries where pot is as illegal as cocaine, you might as well use the harder drug if the punishmet is going to be the same.

And, if your a true republican, you want the government not to regulate this. .

That's only really a problem at a young age, and if done in excess, so we don't have much of a problem there.

don't know where you get your info, but that's incorrect. It is a problem at ages under 30 and it does not have to be done in excess. That's the whole problem. Some people have a genetic predispostion for schizophrenia and pot brings this out.

Lol what a nice thought. Too bad Republicans are liberals. Democrats are socialists and our founding fathers (who were libertarians) are crazy.
