If alcohol is so regulated an monitored why are there so many deaths directly attributed to it? And then on the other side of the coin, we have marijuana which is illegal so it is not regulated or monitered at all, yet there are ZERO deaths directly attributed to it?That blatantly showcases the huge difference in the potential dangers of both substances.

Besides if a person actually thinks marijuana is a substance that needs to be monitered and regulated, why the hell would they support it being kept on the black market where it cannot be monitered or regulated to any degree? That logic makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.If regulation and monitering was actually a priority one would support legalization, as that is the only way a measurement system would EVER be enacted.

Hell then we have Rehab centers, how many marijuana users utilize these facilities in comparison to alcohol users? I am yet to hear about a person getting in trouble for driving while high, yet drinking and driving is the polar opposite. Possession is the only crime I have seen a person get in trouble for, even when driving a car high. A person gets a DUI or any trouble drunk and they have to stay in jail until they are sober, a person gets in trouble high and they have to wait for bail, not sobriety. These simple facts point to the obvious reality that pot is not anywhere as inebriating as alcohol.

So at the end of the day we have a legal, monitered, regulated substance, that inarguably has been more detrimental than the illegal, unmonitered, unregulated substance. But yeah marijauna is totally the destructive one...

I've tried it once and I didn't get high at all, and that was after smoking 3 joints. It's highly overrated, or maybe I just have a very high tolerance for it.

Legalize or not, those who have done it for a long time will continue to do so regardless. I wouldn't be surprise to see the government legalize it some point down the road for the additional revenue it can generated.

[QUOTE="DJ_Lae"][QUOTE="Toriko42"]Would you characterize people who drink then as destructive or in need of a fix? They go to parties after all to get drunk and you can actually die from too much alcohol, you can't overdose on marijuana. xxDustmanxx

Often it only takes them realizing they also are not perfect. Or maybe they have someone look down on them, so they can see how it feels. Sometimes it's when they take a look around and see they have no friends because they are too high and mighty for anyone to want to tolerate them.

Like Gabu said, If they made commercials about their features they would be much shorter and they would only have a few.

The noobs are on the defensive, it's a little scarier here because at least they will try to win the debate, unlike the matches. :P

But seriously is it really out of line to ask for a bit of consideration in a TEAM game? I know when I am playing horribly I lay back for a sec so I'm not the one who causes the team to lose. When one plays a competitive multiplayer game winning should at least be a little important, why play something just to lose and not even try to improve? That is pathetic for lack of a better word. Even the greatest players are not above taking advice.

I am absolutely against inflating this government any more. This healthcare bill is unconstitutional. Forcing people to pay for it and penalizing those who don't just pisses me off. This is no free market, and we can never claim it is again. I hope this government completely collapses at this point, it's the only way the people will ever reclaim it.
