Better than from a pothead.
True, I'd have to agree with that. Why, are you a pothead, too?

Bill probably thinks pot is a gateway drug, orders of magnitude more
dangerous than booze.

Why do you suppose that? Loogy, the former Atl_man, the former
on_lanier, and the former basskisser seems to think stating that he is
growing pot on a pot newsgroup means he was spouting lies then. Or
lies now. As to the pot, my opinion is legalize and tax most drugs.
If you steal to support your habit, you get an extension to your
sentence. If you can afford the drugs and not be a burden on society,
it's freedom of choice. I graduated from San Francisco State
University, so knew lots of people who used pot. I do not use any
drugs, as I get sick with most prescription painkillers, and I do not
smoke. Earn a lot of money from smoking as Altria has done very well
for me. Better than RTN and your other choices.



You do seem to attach a certain stigma or evil to pot, though, which is
silly, since it's really no worse for the body than booze, assuming both
are abused to a certain level. And, it's pretty rare that people steal
to get money for pot.


I sort of dropped out of this discussion, which I initiated. How did it
devolve into an argument about pot?


I steered it off a cliff after billy bob said "Better than a pothead".
Since I love words, I see "pothead" and wonder why people never say
"bourbon head" or "vodka head". It's always more than just a term learned
by habit. It's a belief based on who-knows-what.


Potheads may even be a grower. A couple of times experimenting does not
normally lead to growing a few plants. Alcoholism is also bad. But alcohol
is legal in this country, pot isn't. Major difference there. My feelings
are legalize most drugs and tax them.
