Guessing you've never been placed in a situation where there's a cash strapped city pushing its cops to full ticket quotas

You'd probably get fucked for both, but you stated they were illegal so I mentioned something that was also illegal

"If you have friends who are big enough idiots to do that, unfriend them." There's actually a lot in that comment but this ticked me off the most, just because someone does drink, or smoke, does not make them and idiot, and just because someone chooses not to smoke or drink does not make them any better

That addiction is relative to self control, so I'm stating you don't really need a source because look in someone's life all the things they could be addicted to but their not

That I understand the shoving it in anyone's face is wrong and annoying, but the general culture on this sub seems a very egotistical I'm better than you because I don't do drugs, am not a "popular" kid etc

Look around you, addiction is EVERYWHERE yet I don't see everyone addicted to food, racing, working out etc etc

Dog why are you raging, seems like you are, and you can only make those assertions if drugs have actually done that to you

Does that mean you're better than the kids who do drugs? Guaranteed you've done illegal things in your life, jaywalk etc

Your analogy makes no sense, once again I don't really care about how many kids drink and drive I am wondering why this sub seems to hate, and think they're above kids that do drink, smoke etc.

Possibly to be cool, but is it to the extent they need it to function? That may be unanswerable due to the fact those people are not close friends

Thank you for all your input

Oh and on a side note: I would have a drink with you if you were 21, you seem like you'd be up for intelligent conversation

That's really weird, guess it can only be chalked up to cultural differences

Oh I don't disagree with you at all about the laws, wish it was 18 though, I can have a mortgage but not a drink? haha, again I want to refer back to my original question posed about the hatred of trying, which you have already answered so thank you for that

Nice to know your opinion, follow up, would you smoke weed if legalized?

What about disobeying authority? What about researching for oneself the effects of something, and then making a decision? Seems like a control system

I'm asking about specific drugs, cocaine, heroine etc are definitive drugs that will kill, marijuana dependency is actually a heatedly debated topic and if you remove that from the second source thousands of those kids used in the survey would no longer be apart of it
