What a loser that young dude is having the freaking marijuana on him. Holy crap he should burn in hell for smoking the pot.
Imagine if they made tomato plants illegal or any other plant people like. And how dare that young man apologize for such a violent offense.
Love reading Alabama players criminal charges on the Kentucky forum. Just me trolling ....... Or am I ...
I was just saying what I said because Jeff who I assume is a grown man past his 40s calling a young man a loser for having some weed. That's all.Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see anyone saying he should be punished more breaking laws concerning marijuana than any other law.
As far as whether or not it should or should not be illegal is an entirely different conversation. I am not sure where I stand regarding exactly how much regulation/restrictions should be in place regarding it, but too many people now act as if weed is harmless. There is pretty significant association with worsening of several mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar, depression, etc.
You can certainly make a similar argument regarding something like alcohol, and I would not disagree b/c alcohol probably causes more harm/deaths in this country than marijuana. I have no issues with someone drinking alcohol, but data that shows how much harm alcohol related deaths/injuries are why I stated that I am not sure how stringent regulations should be... for anything like alcohol or weed.
My point is I don't think we should act like things are harmless when they are not.
Weed is way more harmless than alcohol. You can smoke smoke smoke and smoke some more and never pass out or kill somebody from smoking and driving.Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see anyone saying he should be punished more breaking laws concerning marijuana than any other law.

A joint is one thing. Over 2 pounds is another. That wasn’t his smoke juicy fruit, that was his big sale of the week. I’m all for giving a kid a break, especially if he’s doing something with his life. Don’t make him the poor little kid who doesn’t know better though. He knows exactly what’s up and he got caught, now he’s sorry. Wish him well and move on, but don’t act like he’s some sort of victim. He also had an unlabeled bag of promethazine, so he was either making meth or selling it to someone who was making it.What a loser that young dude is having the freaking marijuana on him.

Idk man Two pounds isnt a lot. But again I did say he was dumb for having it somewhere it's illegal. But your right two pounds is more than a smoke sack. He's not a loser tho. And probably has a better life than Jeff.A joint is one thing. Over 2 pounds is another. That wasn’t his smoke juicy fruit, that was his big sale of the week.

Also people can be sorry. I have felonies. I was sorry when I got caught. I changed my life. People can be sincere.A joint is one thing. Over 2 pounds is another.

edit: Had I saw your other comment on why you wrote it but tomatoes? lol. That was a little far.
Of course they’re sorry they got caught.Also people can be sorry. I have felonies. I was sorry when I got caught. I changed my life. People can be sincere.
I was sorry when I got caught. Also because I got caught. When you see real consequences sitting in front of you it makes you wake up and realize what you've done. Now there's career criminals that are never sorry. I doubt this guy is that.Of course they’re sorry they got caught.. I’m glad you learned from it. Hope he does as well. And you’re right, he’s not a loser, just a kid who made wrong life decision. He’s got the break of a lifetime so I really do hope he makes the most out of it.
There’s no angles here, I doubt anyway. I’ve been lucky a few times myself but do have a few hours logged in the old drunk tank. lol. This kid has a golden ticket with his talent, he can make a ton more money than most people working for a living without a doubt. It’s up to him. He can be a good story or a tragic one.I was sorry when I got caught. Also because I got caught. When you see real consequences sitting in front of you it makes you wake up and realize what you've done. Now there's career criminals that are never sorry. I doubt this guy is that.
Didn’t read, but likely another case of:
“I AM SO SORRY (I got caught)”
Weed is way more harmless than alcohol. You can smoke smoke smoke and smoke some more and never pass out or kill somebody from smoking and driving.
Sure I can say some people don't get along with it well and it's not good for their mental. Most people that smoke it understand it's not that serious. I figured most people now days understand weed. But I get it. My Dad who is 60 still calls it Dope. So I get the old person stance on it. Smokin that Dope lol.
Reminds me of youI was just saying what I said because Jeff who I assume is a grown man past his 40s calling a young man a loser for having some weed. That's all.
Aw na I didn't take what you said like a old vs young thing but in my opinion I just don't find it harmful to my health. It calms me. Makes me want to read a book. Helps me from stressing. Just makes me feel better overall.My comment wasn't meant to sound like an old vs young people thing... it's a medical thing. Sure, when considering drinking and drinking, weed is harmless compared to alcohol. However, for individuals using it, the data doesn't support that it's "harmless"...even though many think it is, and anecdotal opinion/evidence is usually the worst kind. That's why we require evidence-based studies in the medical field.
I would love to meet you and a couple others in real life. I swear I would lol.Reminds me of you

1977 for me and you are correct. Its nice to go to a Michigan dispensary and get it cheaper than when I bought it in the 80's and much better quality. Never slept better than I have since I started taking a 20 MG gummy when I go to bed. Screw ambien.My take hasn’t changed.
I don’t care if it was his personal weed to feed an ounce a day habit or if he was selling it to fellow students as a black market capitalist in a backwards prohibition state.
It’s a plant that is sold legally to adults at a store in half the country. I could argue if it was legal federally, nobody would need 2 pounds because the weed store is right there. But the south is gonna be the south and move 3 decades behind everyone else because it’s what the south does.
Prohibition doesn’t work. I’ve been smoking since the mid 90s and never had trouble finding it even in illegal states. Quality, however, fluctuates on the black market - you can get dank nugs from a grower or in my day brown bricks from Mexico that small like ammonia. Lastly, 2 pounds isn’t a small amount but also isn’t a large scale operation. There are much bigger fish than this dude.
I agree with everything here… If he was so into the stuff, he should have committed to Michigan or Michigan St., instead of backwards Alabama… There’s a pot “candy store” every other square mile in Michigan, and he could get an ounce of 1g pre-rolls for $30My take hasn’t changed.

I love growing my own in Michigan. It's so nice not to have to worry about it. I love growing it as much as consuming it.1977 for me and you are correct.

Personal testing has shown me it harmless. Could it have some effect on the lungs. I'm sure bit mine are in great shape.My comment wasn't meant to sound like an old vs young people thing... it's a medical thing.

Millions of older people use herb. I was surprised at the ages of the people in MichiganAw na I didn't take what you said like a old vs young thing but in my opinion I just don't find it harmful to my health. It calms me. Makes me want to read a book. Helps me from stressing. Just makes me feel better overall.
My old vs young thing was just saying it seems a lot of people that are uneducated about it or look at it like it's meth are crazy. It's not like a drug head needing a fix. It's just a plant that makes things better.
If somebody is smoking weed all day every day then that's a problem more than likely and will be harmful for their health and life. Probably not being productive. But I like to work my work week. Not smoke while I'm working. Then on the weekend smoke a couple blunts and enjoy the free time with family and friends. Just a casual thing to me.
I never try to influence people to like it. If they aren't a fan I respect it. But it's irritating how some people look at it like a real drug that can ruin your life like meth or something. It can if you do it where it's illegal I get that.
That's a reasonable post.Weed is way more harmless than alcohol. You can smoke smoke smoke and smoke some more and never pass out or kill somebody from smoking and driving.

If you can accept it you'll get some more normal post. I've been here 15 years....the troll crap started recently..for a reasonThat's a reasonable post.
Did you forget what you were here for?
Or the west coast. California, Oregon, or Washington.I agree with everything here… If he was so into the stuff, he should have committed to Michigan or Michigan St., instead of backwards Alabama… There’s a pot “candy store” every other square mile in Michigan, and he could get an ounce of 1g pre-rolls for $30anytime he wanted… If he’s 21 or older, that is.
Yeah for example, Poppy plants. That would suck.What a loser that young dude is having the freaking marijuana on him. Holy crap he should burn in hell for smoking the pot.
Imagine if they made tomato plants illegal or any other plant people like. And how dare that young man apologize for such a violent offense.

Lol harmless by their self. Do you know how much has to be done in order for that to turn into cocaine?Yeah for example, Poppy plants. That would suck.
I would think turning a poppy plant into cocaine would be incredibly difficult...Lol harmless by their self. Do you know how much has to be done in order for that to turn into cocaine?
That's like saying you can't sell batteries anymore because you can make meth with it. Poppy plants are like 1 out of 100 ingredients to making coke. Maybe I misunderstood what you were saying tho.
Like I said maybe I took his post the wrong way completely. I'm kind of lost now.I would think turning a poppy plant into cocaine would be incredibly difficult...
You'd probably get better cocaine using the coca plant.
Like I said maybe I took his post the wrong way completely. I'm kind of lost now.
