      Okay, so it wasn’t DARE then, it was whatever brand of DARE your country has. You have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. If you aren’t a troll, then you really need to sit down and think about why you have the opinion of a 12 year old.

        it takes no genius to simply search for answers and know that weed is linked to poor development if consumed during adolescence, and it also takes no genius to see how retarded frequent smokers of it get when they cant get any

          Nobody is advocating for giving weed to children in this thread…

          And you’re argument about frequent smokers being ‘retarded’ isn’t even true. I know plenty of people who smoke. You’re just making stuff up.

            and i’ve seen many more people who act retarded over it than who smoke it and manage to remain normal-appearing, i’d reckon you’re making stuff up

              If people are normal appearing you just assume they havent had any weed.

              I didn’t say people act totally normal after they smoke weird. You said, and I quote ‘and it also takes no genius to see how retarded frequent smokers of it get when they cant get any’. That is a generalization that is not true.

              I know people who lived in states where it wasn’t legal, and would drive 2.5 hours to get it. But, I also know people who had professional jobs and managed large teams who smoke regularly and are very responsible. Your argument makes no sense.

              It’s almost like everybody is different and you are extrapolating information you think applies to everyone when it doesn’t.

                  Neither do weed smokers. But reality doesn’t mean anything to your arguments because they’re not based in reality to start with.

        Its bait, thats the point. This is an edgelord who says things they know arent correct to get attention they arent getting from the people in their real life.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
