It was a big week for weed. first obamas brother was arrested for weed and then Michael Phelps was photographed taking a hit off a bong. Now what these stupid people that are against weed need to ask themselves is "is marijuana really what its been made out to be"? first off, WEED I NOT A DRUG! it is a plant. a drug is something that is man made like asprin. asprin is way more dangerous than weed. now im not telling you guys anything you dont already know, i hope. im just venting. the point of the post is to get some feedback on what people think about these two huge events that took place this week. i think the obama thing could be bad or good. obama might not want to loosen up weed laws for the fear of looking bias cause of his brother. or he might really sit down and take a good look at how pathetic marijuana laws are. i guess we will see.
as far as the phelps thing, this is really good. all the idiots around the world that have been brainwashed about weed are going to see that, even the greatest athlete in olympic history smokes weed. how bad can it really be? the real truth is, weed is illegal for the simple fact that it would wipe out hundreds of big corporations by replacing them with hemp. if you legalize marijuana you have to legalize hemp. just ask Jack. :peace:

please support NORML

A drug by definition is anything that alters your body or state of mind... THC is most definitely a drug, when we that use it say stuff like that it looks horrible... get it right, please.

:weed:
thats what I think every time I read "weed is not a drug its a plant" :)

America's most celebrated athlete tokin' up, I think its time to reconsider our laws on marijuana. I mean eight for eight and he's a pot smoker... I don't see the negative affects the government seers into our heads taking place in this young man's life, time for reform, time for change...

As for Obama; has he even made a public address yet???

santonio holmes (superbowl mvp) aswell sold it :)
I remember when Josh Howard (pretty good Bball player for the Mavs) got in trouble for failing a drug test b/c of weed... the next couple of nights he put up 25+ I believe, maybe they should encourage it.

ok, your right about thc, it is by definition a "drug". but in my opinion, its not a drug its a mind altering plant from god. i dont care what the stupid definition of a drug is. i dont use the term drug when talking about weed because dumb people out there will keep associating it with other "real" drugs and it will make it harder to finally get this plant legalized. by calling it a "drug" you are demonizing it. i guess it was my time for you to learn something today. the point of this post wasnt to criticize me but to give your take on the obama and phelps ordeals. but thanks.

he only has one more olympics and then his career is over---then maybe two to three years of endorsements after that and then he's a nobody like the rest of us :)

he's still the most successful olympian EVER.
yea, but your only going to make a living off that for so long---I hope he doesn't go down signing speedos at the mall or hollywood squares :)

He's only going to have endorsements as long as people freshly remember his accomplishments and basically I was already forgetting about him before this happened.

Then everything is a drug. Food, water, air all alter your body and state of mind. Even things you see would be drugs.

I hope Phelps is taken up on charges like this article says. It would bring everything to a head with all the pro-marijuana press that is going around. Maybe "over night" there would be a change in marijuana law. It just seems to keep coming up. This is awesome, legalization is coming relatively soon!
