the problem is micro doses don't get the stoners off like they want...
micro dose may in some cases increase productivity the dose that gets you into the oblivion seekers seek pretty much kills productivity |

I can't smoke weed or take mushrooms until I retire, even if it was legal in my state. I can, however, drink beer. I only do that 1-2 times a month and while at home. I doubt the legality of weed or mushrooms would have me doing them any differently than alcohol.

For all of you who think this is a good thing you should take a look at what just legalizing pot has done to the city of Seattle where tourism is down and many long time conventions are finding another place to go. Also heard on the radio the other day the same thing is happening in Denver where some huge tourist/convention destination is being devastated by the pot heads. It is not the drugs that are a problem, it is what they lead to.

Lots of ignorance in this thread. Prob should do some research on those types of drugs before making dumb statements about OD’ing or being addicted to those types of drugs. It’s also a great religious discussion about why god would create such a “fun” edible mushroom. My only prob with making drugs legal is they will be more easily abused. Used by children who’s minds aren’t developed yet and the driving aspect. Alcohol is no different and should be in the same sentence when you are for or against drugs. I get folks against all of it. I don’t get folks who are ok with just alcohol being legal. View Quote |

I dont do drugs either as I have a real job. But fuck the state. Self ownership is the most basic private property right.

I feel the same way. I don't drink anymore, would probably never do mushrooms at this point in my life. IF and a big IF MJ was legal in my state. I might partake every now and then.

This is a tough one. I am all about freedom and think its stupid that anything that grows naturally should be illegal. This being said... I have been around plenty of people both stoned out of their gourd on weed, and tripping balls on shrooms. The weedheads just think everything is hilarious and will eat all of your food. Folks who take too many mushrooms (the effects come on much slower) are seriously wasted. Awake and alert, but seeing/hearing shit that isnt there. The effects also last much longer. Denver will reap what they sow here I think.
Terrible hypothetical: I would much prefer being in traffic with Johnny sixpack than someone who ate a 1/2 ounce of shrooms an hour ago and left their buddies house because "this shit isnt working". |

View Quote Please dont take offense but its the only major American city I never wish to go back to. And Ive been to a bunch. I was there in the mid 90s. And the attitude was 'we got Starbucks, we got grunge, we got a stupid fucking space needle. errrlerlerlerler' (mocking jerk voice) The homelessness was something Ive never seen before. And Im from SoCal. I dont know when Seattle was considered a beautiful city, but it sure wasnt 20 years ago, let alone now after any drug legalization law has passed. Im sure the fish are still thrown just as well now as it was then. I was a young teen and the first head shop Id even been in was Seattle. Its was underground where the dumb fish were thrown. Maybe a couple stories. Seattle sucks. And I live in Cleveland now. Ponder that. |

There are going to be a whole bunch of one timers trying mushrooms and realizing that tripping balls is not for them.
The people who really like hallucinogens are going to eat them weather they are legal or not. 95% of people are going to do them once or twice and call it good. They aren’t for everybody. |

As for the DWH or whatever you want to call it being up, I'm calling BS on that one, unless you mean a statistically small number that means nothing. That's one of the big reasons IMHO that it's going to be hard for the fed to legalize it nation wide is that there's no field sobriety or breathalyzer type test to see how high you are. |
