    Can anyone name a person that died directly from using Marijuana? I don't mean getting in a car and getting in a wreck or anything. I mean a disease caused by it.

    You can't because Marijuana can't kill you. Only abusers who are dumb enough to get in a car while stoned get killed. Just like being drunk, but the difference is that beer is legal and they say "Don't drink and drive!".

    (I'm making that my signature, lol...)

    I could go on forever, but I'm tired and I got to work in the morning.

    So Peace out and remember. Stay Cool, Skate Hard, and Stay Stoned!

    It is fucked up. I mean, thousands of people have died from water intoxication over the years and nobody has died from marijuana. I know that they can't, and shouldn't make water illegal but it definitely says something about the stupidity and ignorance of marijuana laws.

    No one has died. We all know that. The question is, is there any way to make the DEA admit/realize it?

    You ask them what I just asked ("Can anyone name a person that died directly from using Marijuana?"). And if they lie and make someone up ask for a body and tell them to prove it. It won't be this easy, but we can dream can't we?!

    I've read quotes from top DEA officials that state that weed is actually safer than raw potatoes. It also said that aspirin is more dangerous than weed, even when the aspirin is used correctly. Still, they won't budge. It's fuckin stupid, man,

    Everyone knows that smoking marijuana makes you drop out of school and become a rape/dope fiend, hell bent on getting his next hit of marijuana which eventually leads to incurable madness!

    Just out of curiosity, do you have the links to those quotes? I would like to read them and show them to people who are against weed.

    The best link for quotes about weed is www.hempfiles.com/php/quotes.php. It contains quotes from government officials, musicians, artists, movie stars, activists, and a whole slew of other people. Qoutes range from pro-weed to anti-weed and everywhere in between.

    Number of Deaths
    Tobacco...............................340,000 - 395,000
    Alcohol (excluding crime/accidents).............125,000+
    Drug Overdose (prescription)............24,000 - 27,000
    Drug Overdose (illegal)...................3,800 - 5,200
    Cannabis.............................................0

    Although I disagree with your statement:

    I find I drive more cautiously when I'm stoned, its funny because I'm always within 1km/hr of the speed limit, so if the speed limit was 80km/h I dont go 82km/hr or over...and I do it without even trying. I find I'm more aware of whats around me on the road
    I know its not good to drive when your completly bitched out of your mind stoned, im talking about just after half a bowl or something.
    But I guess your only 15 and dont know how to drive yet, you'll know with experience.

    I agree. I've had numorous speeding tickets and various other traffic citations. But none of them from driving stoned. I seem to be more cautious and willing to obey speed limits when I'm stoned. I don't know if it's because of paranoia or just becasue my senses are more in tuned with one another. Great point.

    yeh just wait until theres someone else on teh road who -isnt- in control and see how you handle your ass. its fine to say that you can be more cautious with speed and obeying signs and laws, its another to be able to react to dangerous, totally unexpected situations that are hard when sober, let alone stoned. or even when you make a little error and have to compensate. lots of people drink drive caus they say they did it a few times and got home safe so it must be fine. but you cant judge these things by past record, you gotta be aware of lots of factors that you dont -normally- come across, when considering drviving. so, if its your local area then obviously you know it pretty well but its anotehr thing to get blazed and drive off from a party only to be pitched on unfamiliar roads with heaps of reckless drivers.

    Here is the quote

    "A smoker would theoretically have to consume nearly fifteen hundred pounds of marijuana within about 15 minutes to induce a lethal response... In strict medical terms, marijuana is far safer than many of the foods we commonly consume. For example, eating ten raw potatoes can result in a toxic response. By comparison, it is physically impossible to eat enough marijuana to induce death." - DEA Administrative Law Judge Francis L. Young

    I dont care what anyone says, but Im not up for driving high... or any other substance for that matter... its not worth a risk of fucking up, and having the marijuana to be the blame
