    Well, I can play WoW ok, and get LFG groups that fail constantly. But outside that, it feels like it's struggling the whole time just to stay connected. Getting disconnected from IRC, having a lovely time watching webpages load extremely slowly, and occasionally (like one in ten) not even loading at all.

    Really? This is ridiculous. It used to be illegal to have homosexual sex. Was that "wrong"? Hell no. It used to be legal to own slaves. Was that "right"? Absolutely not. Morality and Legality are completely separate. Some things are moral while still being illegal somewhere, and some immoral things are legal.

    Reasons why pot is illegal, at least in America:
    1. Lobbying by industries threatened by hemp production, like the paper industry for example.
    2. Racism against Mexicans in the early 1900s who introduced the drug to America.
    3. Propaganda from the government and other organizations.
    4. Tradition, it's been illegal, so some people think it should stay that way.

    To name a few.

    I concur with the bold. Of course, I plan on at least trying drugs before dismissing them entirely.

    Those that can not see into the infinite valley of wonder that is this world without drugs are clearly doing things wrong.

    What drug is that? Pot? You could say the same thing, (and in fact more severe consequences) for alcohol. (Which is legal, in most places!)

    The internet is illegal in North Korea. Internet must be bad then because it is illegal somewhere. We are very bad people for using the internet.

    Actually, you'd be surprised. The vast majority of people are short-sighted and hedonistic.

    To them, it doesn't matter what the long-term effects are. Hell, most don't even CONSIDER the long-term effects. Most cases of self-damaging alcohol and drug abuse comes from the mentality of "Well, Bill does it and he's fine!"


    Everyone reacts to drugs differently.

    Damnit, I remember back in July last year, I was watching a great documentary on pot. Can't remember what it was. I'll look for it on YouTube.

    I realize that there are things about drugs that aren't terribad, but most people who start doing drugs "just a little" end up abusing them. It's just all around a good idea to not use them in the first place.
