I guess as long as you don't heavily use pot or become involved in criminal activity, you're fine. Just don't start anything using anything worse

Well I do drink. And for those of you who believe alcohol is bad, I agree. I just don't really enjoy being sober. And I won't do any drug other than weed, alcohol and salvia.

alcohol will kill you though. if you drink it to avoid being sober, meaning you would have to continuously drink alcohol after being drunk every half hour. which would eventually lead you to liver problems, gallbladder problems and alcohol poisoning.

I believe he means being long-term sober, not just being drunk 24/7.

This is a legitimately good point. Just because you use weed doesn't mean you can't be successful or end up on the streets. Look at Black Sabbath and Motley Crue.
As for my own views, I really don't care or mind if you use pot as long as you're not obsessive with it. The only negative side effects are poor memory and some lung damage and the absolute worst is lung cancer, though that's only after prolonged/heavy use. The medical use of marijuana is also undeniable especially in it's treatment of those with Parkinson's, depression (as noted above), anxiety, and even MS. So, I have no harsh feelings with anyone who uses the substance.
Thank you. And dude I'm sorry for the harsh feelings we may have had back then. I have no problem with MLP or the people who enjoy MLP. As for marijuana, there are more side effects then you have listed. Side effects include -
- Increase in Appetite
- Lack of memory.
- Fatigue
- Decrease in motor skills
- Impaired judgement
- Dry eyes and mouth
- Minor stupidity
Although I don't believe that any of these side effects could be majorly harmful. These side effects are only present while under effect of the substance.
It can cause lung cancer and other diseases in the respiratory system (including your mouth)
And it may cause caries and other infections too

I don't constantly attempt to avoid being sober. I don't really enjoy being sober although I don't mind it. And I only drink every few days or so. It's mostly weed that I use.

Can't really comment on this because where I live it's so damn expensive.

Well, Marihuana IS the least harmful of all illegal drugs. It doesn't do much long-term. (Except if you're like really young.)
But, i wouldn't like to see it legalized, huh, going to the street to talk to a friend only to see him stoned as hell and not able to answer properly? That's a no-no to me.
