Do you believe in getting high on Marijuana and if you don't why not?

Yes I do, there are worse things out there then pot.

I believe in it - it's a much better way to alter ones mind than alcohol.

Marijuana is great. It should be legally available to the public. The only reason I don't smoke it is because I've done so many drugs in the past that when I smoke, I start having frightening experiences.

I say do whatever you want to do...in moderation.

i use marijuana like alcohol. no driving, or going to work. if one uses in moderation there is no problem. it will be legalized in all states soon.

yeah i believe in getting high on marijuana. because that's what happens when you smoke it.
if you're asking if i believe it's okay, then yes i do. i smoke pot & so do a lot of my friends. my in laws do too & they're very successful.
i think it's just fine in moderation.

Its harmless, my parnter does it now then as a treat like having a few drinks at xmas type thing

maybe at a party. not while driving. or at home. its like alcohol. it makes you feel different while in a recreational mood. it does not sit well with work or being responsible.

I would smoke pot if it was legal.

I wouldnt say I BELIEVE in it.
But if that is ALL you do, I dont see any harm.

I know TONS of people who smoke, go to work...are productive, good people...not lazy, very structured...healthy, fun....and kind.

I dont smoke....I used to ALOT. and for awhile I did here and there. But I just havnt for awhile. For quite awhile....no appeal.

It's not really a matter of "believing" in it. I don't do it. I don't drink alcohol either. I just like being me with all of my different moods. As far back as there are records we know people have, for whatever reasons, searched for ways to alter consciousness. I think the most healthy way to live is in the here and now, fully conscience. But, that's just me. I think the marijuana laws in some states are ridiculous. I personally have no problem with it being legalized for possession of a small amount. The people who smoke it are going to whether it's legal or not. People like me who don't care about it will not start if it is legalized. I much rather see my tax dollars spent on law enforcement of crimes that really matter.

i believe in altering my state of mind to the extreme. the highest ive ever been was 6 hits of acid, smoking crack and doing whippets straight from a a tank at a friend birthday party, all at once. Hit the crackpipe to about half lung capacity, and hit the whippet for the other half. I talked to god. we all did.

No, because I'm tired of all of the pills and crap I've had to take to stay healthy, and this is one more side effect. I also get sick on its odor. +4

yes i do

If we lived in an open mined Society they would legalize THC(the chemical that gets you high. Smoking anything is bad for your Lungs and causes Cancer;but Marijuana is a better drug than Alcohol. It is not addicting.
I think no drug should be used daily. People have to find more natural methods of coping with stress. Exercise especially Yoga helps a lot. I knew people in College that had Psychological addictions to Marijuana.
Exercise works best for me and has no side effects.

I believe it is a great drug. I smoked for years but don't anymore because I liked it a little too much. It is the lesser of the evils as far as getting high is concerned. Way better for me than alcohol so probably anyone else pretty much too.

i believe that you CAN get high on it, i know full well that it is physically possible, but unfortunatly i will NEVER do it myself, i have a history of mental health issues in my family and i'm already ehough of a nut-job, i don't need to add more

I don't have a problem with it.

I don't smoke pot often since I don't know where I could get any and when I used to smoke pot, it never turned me into a pot-head or lead me to other drugs. I believe that pot is safer than most prescribed medications that you get from your doctor.

For me personally no, because it depresses me and causes me severe anxiety. Not everyone reacts the same way to the same drug. It does none of the things it is supposed to do to me.

If other people can tolerate it, I believe they should do it. Just don't ask me to; even thinking about it causes me severe anxiety. Don't try to tell me it's different now, or that I don't know what I'm talking about, or that it will work the right way now. Things that are supposed to make you drowsy keep me awake all night and vice versa. Hence pot makes me crazy anxious. But enough about me.

No, I don't want to miss anything. Reality turns me on. :-)

Because it is a gateway drug, no matter what you think or will reply to this with. I'm a recovering drug addict, and if I had never smoked weed I might not have ever switched to speed.

Of course I do. It's well documented. There's a LOT of evidence suggesting that smoking marijuana gets you high.

Yeah there's nothing wrong with pot, if you use it responsibly. I used to do it loads in England, at school, round my bro's and mates, haven't done it for a while though now

I get high occasionally, but I don't believe in it in terms of advocating it or believing that it's substantially beneficial.

I think it's fine in moderation but I think heavy use can have its drawbacks.

I think it should be legalized, regulated, and taxed.

im in my mid 20s, after years of smoking i do believe in getting high on weed. but not stoned. i like to have a couple hits and calm down at night.... but getting retarded high is not cool, unless your in high school.. and it doesnt exactly pave the road to success either.. but whatever floats your boat.

Hell Yeah i love marijuana i can't use it though because of my prohbation but it is a plant of misteries and seems to calm your miseries you need to however, be smart when you use it it is not for everybody u need to know how to control and handle inner emotions or else you can say or make mistakes like alcohol it is a koo plant i think.

Drugs are a crutch for the weak.

I dont need to rely on any drug to get me happy (my personal opinion) whether its alcohol, marijuana, meth, ciggarettes, anything like that is an utter waste of my money in my eyes. Never have done any of that, probably never will. I might take a smoke right when its my birthday to be legal, but only once. And i might drink one beer on my birthday that i am legal to do it. But those are the only times i might do it.

yes marijuana will put you in a state where you can hear see things more clearly and as for work and such that can still be up for further testing

Don't know how my question about incompetent Teachers got in the mix here. I really wanted to know how most people feel. In NYC. these worthless Teachers who are much less capable than me get payed for doing nothing.
My Friend lives outside of DC. She says Teachers are evaluated Yearly. If the Children do not learn they are terminated. Is this how it should be? American Children are falling behind. The ability to do well on test does not make someone a good Teacher. Here in NYC. they are not receiving appropriate training.

Should Teachers who can not Teach be dismissed? In private industry you do your job or your fired. Why should Teachers be paid when the Children are not making progress?

It should be a personal choice and regulated the same as alcohol.

Too many of our resources are wasted on fighting Marijuana. If legalized there would be much less money available to organized crime. If taxed it would put money back into the government to provide things such as health care for all. Police resources would be freed up to tackle more important issues.

Fewer people would be in prison, feeing up more money. Is'nt it ironic that the land of the "Free" has the most imprisoned population in the world?

Just look back at the days of prohibition. We were foolish then and we are foolish now. Look at all the crime juring prohibition and how it stopped when prohibition ended. We should learn from the mistakes of the past and stop wasting valuable resources on marijuana.

I am a non-user but if my neighbour wanted to smoke a joint in his own home why should I or anyone else care. "Land of the Free? Give me a break!"

I hate anything which rules me. Drugs can rule you and make you a slave of it.

No. If it's good for you then it's safe for schoolbus drivers too.

No! Expensive and a waste of time

Not really. I think it's pretty sad that people have to take a substance or smoke it or whatever to feel high, I get on natural highs and they are just as good but they don't affect the times when your not high so a lot better for you. Btw yes I have done weed but that was once

I don't like it because it leads to trying and getting addicted to other drugs. Since it stays in your system for 30 days, you can get arrested even if you used it weeks ago. I'm sure it smells terrible too.

I tried it twice, and i didnt feel anything, so i really dont feel the need to do it. Plus it stinks to high hell.

Tried it once back in the eighties. It didn't do a thing for me. Must have been cheap 'grass'. Haven't tried it since.

No, I don't. I'm a business owner, Mom of a police officer, a Grandma and somehow this would NOT fit my 'image'!
