You imply there is only one true way to experience the world - perhaps there are myriad equaly valid mindstates achievable through learning, meditation, or drugs. If you are a philosopher, perhaps you would enjoy LSD? It will make you reconsider reality, for a few hours at least.

I have no "anti-drug" because I do not buy into the "War on Drugs" government propaganda.

How can pot be considered a drug but mushrooms not?
Mushrooms are a far more powerful drug then pot is.

Negative health effects (with or without impurities), danger associated with the sorts of criminals you'd have to deal with to get it. And in the case of marijuana, not wanting to end up like some lame, old, asshole hippy.

Why can some people not accept that recreational drug users can be responsible at the same time? Not everyone who drinks alcohol is an alcoholic, so why can't the same apply to 'drugs'?

I never had mescaline, but i've had a related synthetic chemical called 2CB... The king was inside my sofa (don't know what he was the king of), and i was able to lift the bricks from my driveway and make floating shapes with them. This was a low dose.

don't waste your time. for many here, the notion of breaking the law is too much to handle. never mind if the act is not morally, ethically, mentally, or physically detrimental to one's well being.

Yeah, I've never had a bad trip on acid, shrooms or mescaline, but I've done all three a grand total of like 5 times put together.

Its like meltdown says. I agree with him completely.

Because all the recreational drug users I met in high school and college turned into major losers. Not saying that is always the case....just my own anecdotal experience.

if something as tame as weed can turn someone into a COMPLETE loser, they were a loser to begin with. *imho* (assuming that is the main rec. drug we are referring to...)

I had an independent study project with a dude with a phd from Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. He is a great father, with three awesome kids. This guy ran around with big zip lock bags of powdered ecstacy when it was still legal. He's done more drugs than everybody in this thread, combined. There are plenty like him. Your anecdotal experience has let you become closed minded.

Because there's a lot of propaganda in place to fool the dopes out there into supporting drugs' illegal status

If you don't smoke OR drink alcohol, then your point of view is valid, but if you do either of the above, they are equally stupid, so you have no leg to stand on.
If you do both, well I won't even comment.

So you believe that getting high on Narcotics isn't stupid?
