Yeah they're pretty hardcore about it in Texas, not much if any leniency. I'm not a smoker nor do I want to be, but to each his own.

Wow, in BC, Vancouver, they just tell you to smoke it somewhere else, at home or whatever, as long as you are not a minor but even then, if you are not too far under 19, they usually do not freak.
Depends on if it is quota time like now, March and also if they want to make an example out of you, politics, elections etc. But for the most part, it is not a huge deal as long as you are not being obvious and an ass about it.

You know I'm not a big smoker, just a few times in my life and mostly b/c I was w/ friends but truthfully its becoming more popular in peopls eyes. Fines are dropping and anti pot laws are not popping up like they used to, I don't enjoy it but I can see how in moderation it way relax you before lifting and why some use it. No offense to those of you that do, it's just a personal choice,

In indiana its getting to the point that all you get is a ticket to appear in court and a small fine.

And who says they cant tax it? I want Uncle Sams brand doobies.

well CRAP, asside from Cali, weed is very illegal. I live in Texas, and if you're caught with TRACE amounts (i.e.- resin), you are taken to jail for a minimum of 24 hours and automatically fined. Your community service is then determined a few months later at a court date. And 2 0z. is considered Intent to Distibute and a FELONY.

My other point remains though, since the government can't tax it, they've deemed it illegal which makes it exponentially more dangerous.

I forgot to add this BTW.. I said i smoke after the gym.. thats usually in my car and i blow it out the window. I couldn't live anywhere else where you have to hide it.

Fortunatly the law is that cocain meth etc.. are felonys... weed is just a slap on the hand

I actually would prefer they legalize the damn drug but the government can't tax it.. So since there can be no tax its banned.. In my opinion its better to smoke weed then damager your liver with alcohol. They have very simular affects on the brain at least it looked that way in my pharmacology class. They taught us in class the government wont tax something that they cant measure the amount of THC in.. All weed is different and some stronger then others. Also some is very easy to grow so there would not be very much profit in it. Its much easier to ban it and give people fines.. Shoot the government is making a killing It does not have anything to do with the harmful affects of the drug its our corrupt government.. No one cares if they are going to get in trouble for smoking look what happend when they banned alcohol, they had a pro hibition im sure there were people back then that were making a huge deal about drinking too.

I was caught with 2 OZ.. The police officers just took it and nothing was done. I live in california its practically legal here, If i was a real pot head I would go to the doctor and get a lame perscription.. Like say I have problems sleeping and with stress, they can perscribe me a canibus card and i can smoke legally. I have been with some friends and they were smoking in front of the police station, the officers checked the card and said to smoke at home instead..

hehe God I love california, **** ask mark david he doesn't live too far from me.. actually he is the next city over from me.

I assure you there is no jail time in california and the fee's are not very expensive a measly 100 - 300$ but it all depends on how much you have. More people are getting in trouble for growing it in their house here then smoking it.

Unfortunately, police officers do care and you can get a pretty hefty fine and even some jail time if you're caught. Plus, due to its illegal status, you could be smoking weed with all kinds of other drugs to enhance it's addictive qualities.

I smoke in moderation... I do not usually talk about it... Just because everyone thinks its soo bad...

Anyway.. I take 2 - 3 hits after working out at the gym, If i do it before I lack the energy to even work out.. I do it after and my muscles relax then I eat tones of food, I also get much better sleep. On the down side it really screws with my lungs. I get a sharp pain toward the center of my chest I cough alot and have problems breathing, I have bronchial problems though.. So i really really limit the smoking factor. I also do not see anything wrong with smoking weed.

Doing any mind altering drug every day is a clear sign that you are addicted and looking for an escape from life. I do not use any drugs at all but if you want to smoke weed once a month or so then fine, if you do it more than that you probably have a problem.

My grandmother has a legal drug pusher called her doctor. Ask her about the time she was alone and the men were in her house and her lights were on and off and about how she talked to my dead grandfather for 30 minutes while he ws sitting in the corner. I'm not saying that I think weed is good but linda is right prescription stuff is way worse than pot. and whos to say their looking for an escape from life? And so what if they are if smoking a pound a day makes them happy and not somking makes them want to die lettem smoke all day. I've known quite a few people who've gotten "professional" help and they still have the same problems they had before now some rich stranger knows their crap and their not anybetter for it. So if somebody self medicates with weed rather than Zoloft, more power to em.

Just to let out a little truth for you unexperienced people.
I blaze ( smoke weed ) Everyday. Im high for atleast 5 hours of the day usually these times will be in the morning, when i wake up. at lunch, so i dont have to go to class sober, cause it sucks (im getting 80s in both classes i smoke weed before). and at night, usually so i can get REALLY hungry and eat a TON of good food and a protein. and then play video games. Im getting good grades in the classes i go to at school. I have smoked weed both before and after hard and not so hard workouts and it doesn't really effect me at all, im the same while sober that i am when im high.
And just so theres no confusion i've gotten lots of gains and the only thing thats different after i smoke weed in the long or short term is that i had more fun than i would have been sober. I probably spend like...40 bucks a week on it, so i still have money for all the supps i need, plus my parents give me money if im in dire need.
Smoke weed... get high, its fun and theres no downside

lol u missed this thread by 8 months.

I have actually smoked and then worked out after smoking. I feel that it greatly increases your willingness to lift. Although smoking marijuana is viewed as a lethargic, lazy hobby, I have found that it almost gives me a shot of adrenaline because when I lift "high" I can do many more reps than I can when I am not. Give it a try and let me know the results. The key to lifting after smoking marijuana is to set a goal for yourself in your head for instance: when I do curls of lets say 20 lbs I would tell myself in my head that I MUST get to 30 curls on each arm and it is usually good to listen to music durring this. I have found that I get my goal almost every time.
