We all make choices and it's not really for anyone to judge - although we do. I've never smoked, drink moderately and have tried a joint and felt so sick and dizzy I never bothered again but I don't point the finger at other people. I do know the long term affect of smoking - I see it at work - and excessive drinking can also cause ill health but I don't think people realise that marijuana also has long term affects and can cause some psychological problems if used to excess. Having said that it is up to people what they do and most people are well educated and know the risks.

Sheila blame the cook !

karen the law says dope is wrong ie illegal , but drink isn't

personally with my pub I would have rather had stoned customers than drunken hooligans

I don't think it's wrong.
It's up to the individual. Just like drinking alcohol, or smoking cigarettes or a pipe, piercing our bodies, tattooing our bodies, whatever....it is our choice to do it....or not.
We might not like what someone else does, but that's not to say it is wrong.

Love & Peace.
dope smoking, wine drinking, body pierced Karen.

It's not 'wrong' - just a matter of choice. I've inhaled smoke from others' joints and eaten it in cookies, but it didn't do much for me. Just not my scene but each to his own.

Can't see any problem with the odd joint tbh. Very relaxing and sociable - I generally stick to booze these days though

I had a few joints in my younger days......wouldn't dare now as I used to consume amazing amounts of chocolate from having the munchies ........would be a nightmare for my weight now.......though in the good old days I was stick thin anyhow.lolololol.

Okay serious

if you have never smoked dope, how can you say it's wrong when you may drink ?
