I thought GTA IVlooked amazing the first time I saw it. Now when I play it, it's hard for me to believe it's even from this console gen.

I don't think that's too far-fetched at all. I believe that completely. Unfortunately, we'll move on to a better energy source by the time the rest of the world runs out of oil, and we'll just have a bunch of oil under American soil that's worthless, and we'll be broke from giving all our money to the middle-east for their oil for the past 100 years.

Wow, I can't even believe that would be a question they would ask. I had no idea anyone was out there trying to get that outlawed. To me, it's more natural to be attracted to someone of another race than your own, because that creates variation in a population. However, I have first-hand experience wen I say the south is still a bit racist. I'm from Texas (which isn't really as bad as the rest of the south), but for 4 years I lived in a small liberal Colorado town where the only black person was my adopted sister. So there was obviously no racial tension there. So when I recently moved to Georgia, I was appauled when a black girl asked me at my school if my parentslet me date girls that aren't white. I couldn't believe a city that's like 40% white, 40% black, and 20% latino, could still be racist...mind boggling. I really want to get out of the south...

I think it's because the idea of Facebook is that it's a little more focused on you and not just things you like...like Myspace is (was...I haven't heard anyone say they were on Myspace for 2 years).

I'm not sure, the most I've drank is like 12 drinks probably (counting both beer and shots) and that got me really drunk... it was during a family beer pong tournament, my dad was my partner, but like at normal house parties and with friends and stuff somewhere around 6 drinks is plenty. However, I'm going to college this fall, so ask me again in, let's say 6 months, and I bet I'll have an exact formula of how much of each drink gets me how drunk.

I agree that people hate hip-hop because the mainstream has degenerated so badly that less than 1 out of 100 songs might be good, and the people that listen to it have become so numbed that they just accept it without searing for anything better than the album Weezy's coming out with the next time the prison guards let Drake visit.The mainstream is what most people are exposed to, and for most people, it does not inspire them dive any deeper into the genre.

I love hip-hop, it's right up there with all my other favorite genres, but the only mainstream artist I listen to is Kanye...and Three 6 Mafia because they are so ridiculously chliche that it's hilarious and I think they're actually probably not like that at all and just decided to make the songs with really dope beats and the dumbest lyrics possible and see if people listen to. I think that's a genuis experiment.

Of course there is always going to be bad apples among them who misuse them but that applies to everything.kuraimen

Also, to the people arguing about it would be harder to tax marijuana because anyone can grow it, and it's not the same as alcohol because alcohol is much harder to produce. You're wrong. Sure anyone can grow a pot plant in their backyard. That marijuana would be very low quality, not get you very buzzed, and probably not taste superb, much like homemade beer. High quality marijuana is grown through hydroponics, with different types of light, and with an astounding amount of botanical knowledge (knowing the difference between the male and female parts of the plant and when they should be cross breeding and all kinds of things). So it is just as techical, if not more, as making fine liquor. So if it was legalized, I bet at least 90% of smokers would buy it from a store over growing their own.

Jon Stewart is (and Colbert is also, although he is a little bit sillier) much more reasonanle and unbiased, in my opinion, than any of the people with political shows on any other channel. The fact that Comefy Central has the most balance, rational, political talk shows, is very sad, but I still support them and I am proud to tell anyone I watched both Stewart and Colbert.

Well you're right , that's the difficulty of the discussion. There are people who can function with it , and lead happy lives but the majority of the people don't do it and there's a reason for that. So should we give people less freedom to protect the others, i don't know i'm no politician.

The fact is in a country where you pay a lot of taxes, health care is pretty much free and you get a lot of money from wellfare or health care (if you're not able to work anymore) it's a political debate wether to forbid is or not because if people can't function anymore because of the use (or misuse) of certain drugs then they become a cost and burden for society.

Off course i don't know about the usa, the cost for someone who doesn't work there will be a lot less than here so it changes the discussion. Allthough someone who can't function anymore because of drug addiction and has to start stealing or dealing drugs to survive , you have to put em in jail so they cost money too and they become a bad influence.

I know the fun that there's to be had with marijuana and it's all fun in free timeand especially in your studentyears but adulthood comes with responsibilites andif fun endangers those responsibilities then you have a problem.

It's a difficult subject, i don't think people should go tojailif they use marijuana (and they don't go to jail for that here , i don't know about usa) but if it starts to become a problem and you become a problem for your neighbourhood and society i think they're should be counseling.

Problem is wheredo you buy itthen , if you legalize itit's likesaying it's ok, while it's certainly not ok, at least notfor everyone. If you let it in thecrime circuit, people get accessto other more dangerous drugs.

Maybe a good deal is thatsomebody can sell it if he grows ithimself and can only sell a small amount a year so that it becomes expensive, i don't know, like i said i'm no politicianand i'm glad because it's a difficult subject to decide over.

I'm going to go with an extreme to make a point. Everybody loves sex. There are some people who are obsessed with it. There are some of those that are so obsessed with sex that they spend valuable time, that they couldinstead for something productive, looking at porn. There are some people so severely obsessed, that they decide to go out and rape a woman and emotionally damage them forever.Does that mean we should illegalize sex? Hell no!

My point is, we should not build our freedoms around the exception. The few that are not mentally stable should not define what the rest of us get to do. Just because there are a few pyromaniacs out there, doesn't mean the rest of us shouldn't get to buy matches. Just because there is quite a few people out there that drive irresponsibly and end up killing somebody, doesthat mean the rest of shouldn't get to buy a car?

Our freedoms should be based around how much they limit others freedoms (and I'm talking about with normal, sane use). A person that smokes weed every once in a while, is not at all likely to go hurt somebody, specifically because of marijuana. A person on crack cocaine, is very likely to go rob somebody, so it is obvious, to me, why marijuana should not be put on the same level as other illegal drugs.

maybe becase the senators are mad we're not sharing some with them???:P

Well maybe we would if they would put in on a sack instead of trying to smoke up everybody else's stash! Plus they are always messing up the rotation. They all seem to think it's puff, puff, filibuster, puff, puff, pass.
