Marijuana Not Gateway

Posted on 11/13/2003 9:36:26 AM PST by KBlaze69

Since Marijuana is the main drug that is able to be tested for when on probation people often tend to switch to other drugs while on paper, this is what causes people to get attached to other drugs not marijuana itself. If Marijuana were legalized this i feel that this wouldn't be as much of a problem.

First post goes right to the backroom, where it languishes all day. But vanities about pot will pretty much go right there no matter who posts them.

Don't know whether to say welcome to FR or not. What the keck, I'll bite here & try to see what makes you think what you're thinking, 'cause I don't agree.

I've never heard the phrase used before, but I've never been "on paper", or whatever you call it. But with most of the folks I know who are, and use drugs "harder" than pot (and I know a few who fit that description), the use of the smack & whatever usually predated the legal problems.

Speaking of LeRoy, I'm going to post a thread about him in the next few days, asking people to request to the powers that be that he be reinstated. Seeing that you seem to be a man of principle, I can assume you will join us in pointing out that he did not break any FR guidelines, and in fact discouraged personal attacks on threads, right?

I would be interested in knowing the reasons for his banishment.

Seem? LOL

I can certainly echo the fact that he seemed to be a poster of honor. If not for posting too many threads on the same subject.

You were on the Big Brother ping list. Everyone knows that only men of the highest virtue watch BB.

Not to mention Survivor and The Amazing Race. Those credentials alone give me top billing.

LOL

Why, he has no respect for the owner of this site and keeps sneaking back in under other names. First The Coach and now goddess...a very suiting name for him.

I'd be very interested in this. Would it be too much to ask for a "ping" if and when you do this? I re-read the last several "war-on-drugs" threads posted by MrLeRoy. I don't think that I saw anything that should have gotten him banned from FR. I know that several others have some personal interest in the issue of bannings.

Being on a certain side of an issue sure shouldn't get you banned on This site...now on a RAT site they'll ban you in a heartbeat.
BTW, I used to post on a marijuana dot com site and they BANNED me for taking an alternative viewpoint...(it would have been considered "alternative" here as well...LOL!!!!)...but that just goes to show you they can't stand the truth. (For a pro-legalization person and ex LEO like myself, getting banned from a pot site was quite a feat!! This is not just a leftist viewpoint Btw..I am no leftist..and they saw that and got all mad...lol) See LEAP.

The point being, I too would like to know why someone would be banned here if they obeyed the rules.

So have you posted your legalize the dope (leroy) thread yet. I'd be curious to see just how few people attend.
