Don't tell me what you think I should tell people. I can gladly think for myself, and I really don't need your help doing it.

Look, the bottom line is that if you have never tried it at lease ONCE in your life, then you have little, if any credibility when it comes to telling people what they shouldn't do either. To any rational human being, if someone has no experience in ANY specific field, whether it be in business, education, leadership, or any other aspect in life, what makes that person qualified to talk in those areas? All current research on marijuana has revealed that its effects have been grossly exaggerated by a government that is deep in the pockets of the tobacco and alcohol industry, a government that falsified its invasion of Iraq, a government that has illegally wiretapped its citizens; Have you noticed that almost all "marijuana facts" come straight from the government? What makes the government so trustful in a matter like this when there is much at stake?

I'm not telling anyone to become a pothead, drop out of school, or turn into a loser; I'm not saying that marijuana is a miracle drug and can cure people left and right; and I'm not advocating a hippie lifestyle where people have sex and listen to music all the time. All I'm saying is that if any rational person looks at the data on both sides of the argument, an educated conclusion can be made, unlike yours which is more of an opinion and not really based on facts. That is all...

Sorry babe, I didnt read all your shit but I read the only part that mattered. I dont do it, and I tell my friends not to do it..Now I dont think that credibility should derive from the fact that someone has tried and chose not to...but more on tne basis that I haven't tried and havent needed to. Just like you are entitled to your opinion, I am entitled to mine...right? Therefore when I tell people not to, it is solely based on the fact that in my 23 years...I have not done it and dont feel compelled to... Besides, just like I live for myself I hope everyone else does also. You can warn all you want but people are going to do their own thing anyways.
