    @back2realitygal11 logically, that’s not sound. McCartney is a pothead. Therefore, McCartney is a loser. McCartney is recognized as the greatest song writer to have ever lived. they contradict each other. You could use the same logic for Lennon, Harrison, and just about every other successful musician you can think of. Michael Phelps is an example in sports. Joe Rogan is an example in comedy/sport broadcasting.

    @WellConditionedChimp because pot heads are losers? why else would I?

    @taxmonkey123 there are sociological arguments as well. for the US, some think that marijuana is inherently anit-capitalist because of the pleasure it produces, i.e. you don’t need to work 48hrs/week in order to buy the newest SUV if you’re high. Materialism crumbles.

    @chinchonchinchon you have to be careful about your sources. firstly, the methodology of a study determines whether you can draw such a conclusion. if they merely did a study correlating marijuana use to cancer, you can’t conclude that marijuana caused the cancer. you’d need an experimental methodology for that.

    @3replybiz I don’t think it makes you more creative, but it does put you in a creative mind set. ideas flow much more easily. Then again, I can only state that from my personal experience as a song writer. I’m not sure about other form of creativity

    Pretty stupid of him, how many times had he been busted in other countries with this stuff. “What he forgot” who put the shit in his stuff to be checked. After being busted1 time i would be thinking well where is the pot. This guy could get the best in minutes no matter where he is, he could get people that came with him to do it. Arange it before dosn’t make sense. Is he really that relaxed about it I don’t think so

    @00639productions The cigar is much more harmful than a whole can of beer.

    @carryxmextoxthexend Cannabis doesn’t make you creative, it’s a myth. Paul had died creatively years before this.

    I have smoked cannabis, these days it is like a class A drug because it is cultivated so well. I could deal with it because I read about it and knew what to expect. It is NOT like a couple of pints of beer at all and can have rather strange effects. Teenagers & people with incipient mental health issues should not smoke this. Alcohol & nicotine cause death & ruin on a huge daily basis though people are usually not educated well enough to use cannabis as a casual recreational drug.

    even if the mafia do wish to convict people for smoking weed then surely it should not be an imprisonable offense. ‘Fine’ only to suit the weight of the crime

    @mwells219 you obviously haven’t done your research, or rationalized that in your brain at all. if you think about it, really think, it’s impossible. something that big would’t be covered up so easily. even the biggest fan wouldn’t be able to imitate him and write and sing like him within a matter of days.

    @haj890 they needed to lay off though! So he did drugs so what? he wasn’t the only. The only reason why everybody thought he had to answer to them was because he was the biggest music star in the world. Ppl there’s bigger things to worry about then music stars and drugs. The press is contrived!
