rajeem 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Why? In your world is smoking dope "the norm"? Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 at least a few who posted here said yes. Im Canadian so I should say what Ross R. said at the Olmpics. I was at the party and everybody was smoking so thats why I tested positive. Link to post Share on other sites
spook 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 i don't think its the norm to smoke dope, i just thought that pretty much everyone tried it at some stage Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I think it's something they give to racehorses to make them go faster. Link to post Share on other sites
mikazooki 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 good question mogski! well, dope is a term frequently used by the underworld society of drug addicts and pushers. these gutterdwellers use the term to refer to various illicit substances. it actually depends what part of the gutter u come from as to what it actually means. the stoners use it to refer to weed, the junkies - smack, but in between the carcophony of drug jargon utilised by this social slime, it can in fact refer to any drug whatsoever.

jared 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I think that Norm has smoked dope. If he says he hasn't then he's lying. I ticked yes to the question. I will also defend my decision to do so should I need to. Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 While it's quite obvious that many normal, rational, successful people have done 'dope' of one sort or another, it's also quite obvious that many haven't ever, and wouldn't ever. It doesn't help the cause of those who want to be free to get a little bent from time to time having morons saying "Everybody does it", when clearly they don't. (Nor does it help having US presidents who claim to have gone to the trouble and risk of rolling a joint, lighting it, taking a puff, and not getting properly stoned. What extraordinarily foolish behaviour...) Personally I think that if good cigars were available at more reasonable prices, most people would turn their noses up at 'dope' in favour of a nice stogie. (Incidentally, it appears that the non-inhaling President didn't know the correct procedure for smoking a cigar either. What a terrible example to youth.) Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Im not a hard drug man, never have been never will be. Natural crap is fine with me. As I see it there is not much difference between Tabacco etc. Myself I dont care smoke dont if you dont want it around you I totally respect that. Link to post Share on other sites
barok 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 'cept that tobacco kills more people each year than all forms of dope combined, yet it doesn't get the moniker. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Same goes for cocain. Whats the story there?? Link to post Share on other sites
mikazooki 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Quote: In a major setback for anti-smoking forces in a nation where even the Health Ministry has cigarette vending machines, the Tokyo District Court on Tuesday rejected demands for 10 billion yen ($91.28 million) in compensation for each plaintiff. Presiding over the first case of its kind in Japan, Judge Kikuo Asaka said that it had been the choice of each smoker to start using tobacco and stunned the court by denying, in the face of scientific evidence, that nicotine was addictive. this week in japan's courts... the version i first read said, the judge said it was only mildly addictive and smokers could stop if they wanted too. so get it straight, its not Japan Tobacco's fault that 49% of adult males in japan smoke. now, on with your dope talk...

barok 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 All of this tobacco litigation, to me represents the legal rocketship's departure from planet common sense. First you have people who claim that they had no clue that smoking was bad for them suing the tobacco companies for something that the smoker's themselves are ultimately are responsible for. Then you have tobacco companies and judges saying "oh no, nicotine and cigarettes are not addictive, and they don't cause cancer. What are you plantiffs talking about?" Bith sides need to get their heads out of their asses. There has to be a better solution to the problem of smoking than personal injury litigation. Link to post Share on other sites
snowboard_freak 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Special lassi's are great! I love those things. I totally agree with barok. Tobacco kills so many damn people each and every year. What happens? Sweet FA. I've said it before, but I think alcohol is a much more destructive drug than weed is. And I voted yes.

barok 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Oh, and cocaine might not be dope, but according to US law, it IS a narcotic. Link to post Share on other sites

Dims 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Personally I think there will always be seperate markets for both cigars and juicy fat fresh joints. Can I say that while I have had a great time puffing the billy over the last ten years or so, and met many wonderful people while doing so, it does tend to hamper your ability to concentrate on one task for a solid period of time, and trashes your short term memory..........hang on, what was I just talking about? Everything in moderation, otherwise it can get mentally habitual and just take over your life. Link to post Share on other sites
spook 0 Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 or you could just combine the markets for cigars and j's - and smoke delicous blunts Link to post Share on other sites
