You could just stop fucking with your stereo.
Its nothing to do with weed its to do with self incompetence.
Changing music while driving is as bad as using your phone.

what if sting comes on?

HAHA Awh that made me LOL.

Or Simply Red

that's fine and dandy but someone in the thread mentioned the very real possibility of simply red coming on

Can't remember.

Not the magic powers part, I took out my neighbors mailbox backing out of my driveway while otherwise feeling amazing thanks to the kind folks here.

Why are you looking at your phone while driving? Let alone driving while high looking at these comments too some of y’all need a moral check imo

I drive around the countryside for work and I'm high most of the day, never caused me a problem. Have crashed 3 times while sober though, but one of those was being side swiped by a lorry (driver fell asleep). Wish I was stoned, might not have hurt so much..

Downvote away, but don't drive under the influence of drugs.

Never while stoned, many while straight headed, all on motorbikes.

Nope, been doing it for almost 20 years. Funny thing was just talking to one of my best friends from back in the day. We used to get stoned and go for a drive. Used to do some, what I find scary now country lanes, with crazy bends, up hills and down hills.

Seen some funny shit too whilst stoned and driving.

Would panic when a police car would go past or pull up next to me at the lights but now I vape, so don't give a shit anymore.

i took out a bird (of the avian variety) whilst driving (stoned). it was a being wanker and had it coming. however, that was a conscious choice...

lolol!

Nope only once when I wasnt. I think when I'm stoned driving I'm much more aware of everything. Only bad thing is the police , worst thing you can hear when stoned is " Lads checkpoint " .

Ricky, that you?

Jokes aside, I drive way better stoned than sober. Much smoother and less aggressive.

PlayStation for me.

As for driving round stoned, I live in my cur my cur is my home, I’m sure you get stoned at home probably, all types of weed.

I play call of duty better when stoned I can ice skate better when I’m baked and I drive better when I’m baked I can’t remember what I had for breakfast most days but I can quick snipe a brother from across the map easy hahah somethings activities weed enhances me slightly I’m sure of it never binned a car yet touch wood seen many a close call been in a few over the years but never actually wrecked a whip when stoned

I’ve crashed twice. Both times I wasn’t stoned

Do a lot of driving stoned myself, never had any issues. The last time I had an issue was when me and a friend rented a hotel room at like... 18 I think. We had an ounce of some weird ass weed we needed to get rid of... smoked the whole ounce through the night, and then I tried to drive home and when I pulled out of the hotel I was driving on the wrong side of the road (was the middle of the night with no cars out).

Oops... but I quickly figured that out and got back in the right lane haha.

yes empty roads are dangerou because you find your own flow

I'm just glad you werent listening to simply red

Totally Right up to Fast and Furious 4

Yes this is an important thing to understand. People are interested in their own lives and a crazy ruler is just a form of entertainment in most people's lives. If they are effective with delivering quick economic results then they are good entertainers and are delivering some positives then fine - so why think more about this? It's demeaning to even take a fascist seriously so why bother doing so? In Germany we know why.

You speak like leftism is the only legitimate political ideology.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but there is no left what we have are a bunch of globalists run by the rich (WEF) pretending to be left(the right aint much better) while sending lots of our tax payers cash and weapons to a bunch of nazi`s who took over Ukraine in a coup financed by the US who by the way also funded the 3rd Reich and only joined the fight in Europe when it looked like their little puppet the mad Austrian was going to get his butt kicked and Germany occupied by the Red Army.
Their plan is sinister it is to send all you youngsters to die in battle so they dont end up with a pension crisis after stealing all the pension monies.
Yes the 3rd great human cull has already started.

the nature of misinformation is to use real facts and riff bullshit forward. that's sad in this case because there are some valid points that can be drawn from the cupla truths you have here.

What far right parties are you talking about ?
Judging by that picture , you've bought the Globalist lie that anyone who opposes the WEF is far right .
Far right usually means racist . I don't know of any racist parties that are on the rise in Europe . The right that is rising in Europe is generally speaking conservative of the liberal culture we've established over the last few decades . The new right believes in womens rights , gay rights , etc . You seem to be stuck in the past . The left are fighting phantoms and calling anyone who disagrees with them Nazis because they've run out of actual racists to fight .
It's actually very offensive to the people who did suffer under the Nazis .

Let’s not forget that they were national SOCIALISTS!

Sadly we going to be finding out very soon that the majority of Americans want a semi-Fascist state the same with the uk population too

You better be talking about the authoritarian left but I fear you are not .
The right are all about freedom .

ring really reminds me of the gestapo, they rolled almost exclusively through ordinary informants. people with fucked up biases are having their day.

The 1st thing Goebels did was put a device in everyone's home.

why do they keep designing things to look like hal? doesnt anyone remember how the movie ends?

I usually pass out way before the end

not to worry its the worst part

where there are informants there is vendetta, blackmail and corruption

Any smart device

Why the dystopian views are always referred to Nazism and not to Communism? They are basically the same shit, and Communism looks much more dangerous to me, because it "succeeded" for many more years, in many more countries, and for some reason has that glamorous look to so many idiots...

Germany became increasingly polarized with people espousing Marxism on one side and Law and Order on the other. This is exactly how it feels in America now.

LOL very interesting take on history there

? pretty much the mainstream view on this for germany as well as austria and italy

AND JUST LIKE IN NAZI GERMANY YOU HAVE PEOPLE BEING APOLOGISTS BECAUSE OF "COMMUNISM". AT LEAST IT WAS ACTUALLY FUCKING COMMUNISM BACK THEN AND NOT JUST WHATEVER IS NOT ON THE RIGHT

and fucking communism works wonders for the ugly

from each according to his sperm

In times of economic and political strife extremists always rise, whether left or right wing...it doesn't matter, they are reactionary's. For example the liberal left intend destruction of things about history that upset them much in the same way Nazi's in Germany burned books. People need to learn from History and rarely do, the same mistakes are repeated and things somehow trundle on. 'Good times bring weak people', 'Weak people bring bad times', 'Bad times bring strong people' & 'Strong people bring good times'. The great circle of human history.

I thought it was the republicans (ie the right) in America banning certain aspects of history they don’t like.

Who are the liberal left?

Edit
I’m not trying to start an argument I’m trying to understand

lol it's different in different countries. A conservative in the US is different from a conservative in the UK.

As an example the BLM movement (btw I support equal rights for all races, genders etc.) have tried to expunge slavery and that part of history. Taking down statues of former slaveholders and so on won't change anything, we must remember these things happened so that they don't happen again.

Because of slow or no change for certain groups there is an attempt to accelerate that change from an evolution to a revolution. People will only be backed into a corner for so long whatever their political inclinations. Some people think they're pushing for positive change but real change is when we've learned the lesson.

an act of desecration is often more a monument of history than the original statue

Thanks for the response mate.

I still don’t get the tearing down statues of slave owners equates to trying to erase the history. Statues aren’t history they glorify the subjects for posterity.

Is it still a massive issue over there around the teaching of CRT?

Well the statues are an example. They are subjects for posterity but they also memorialise history and certain points in history. As such they connect themselves to that history.

I basically agree with you though, they aren't the history themselves and so it shouldn't matter. It's what they represent that makes the difference.

I feel that whether right or left wing, people have an agenda and push that. Both different sides of the same coin I'd say.

Also CRT?

Thanks for the response mate.

I see statues as a way to venerate the individual and what they stand for. Cultures generally don’t put up statues of twats. So the slavers statues should all come down imo.

CRT
Critical Race Theory

Yeah np, I don't mind a bit of debate.

Again I do agree with the first part of what you said. Statues certainly venerate people, but also events. However cultures not putting up statues of 'twats'...well...that's a matter of perspective.

There are many examples of people that put up statues of people who are considered great or influential in their time and place. Those same people and statues are considered later, or by another group to be somehow offensive or detestable.

I'm not gona say that something like slavery in the U.S. wasn't a terrible thing, it defo was. I do think that removing something that is generally offensive to the majority should be considered. It's just that we also need to learn from these things and replace them with something that educates people about the history surrounding them so as to understand the bigger picture.

But yeah CRT, I am familiar with it...bit of a deep and complicated topic. But to answer your original question about that, yes I believe it is still something of a hot topic within education in the UK. I believe the Tories here (conservatives) said they felt CRT was biased, in other words trying to ram anti-racism down kids throats without opposing viewpoints.

This is a quote from the Equalities Minister, "Any school which teaches these elements of critical race theory, or which promotes partisan political views such as defunding the police without offering a balanced treatment of opposing views, is breaking the law".

So yeah interesting, jeez this turned into an essay XD

Thanks man I do appreciate your time and input.

It’s good to hear it from someone on the ground so to speak we just get fed what the media want us to hear

I do find CRT and the defund the police movements different. One is a collection of scholars etc critically evaluating how society has impacted people of all races and the defund the police is a social movement in response to innocent black people getting killed by police

Have I got that right?

You sound very naïve & to support CRT is crazy, hope you don't spout the sort of nonsense politics we see above IRL.

I don’t know how supporting a data driven legal critical evaluation by experts as naive maybe I’m missing something in your post as it doesn’t really make sense and yes i do discuss this topic and others with real people

Everything you've been hearing about the right is a lie .

Watching the Plot Against America on Sky and it’s easy to see how Facism takes hold. Not dissimilar to Trump’s America.

How is Trump's America fascist ?

Trump's lot are literally following the nazi playbook.

this old post is aging disturbingly well

Legalisation eh? No thanks! Not for me anyway. To be fair I’m about a thousand years old so I’ve a different perspective to the majority, maybe.
When I look back over the last few decades of living this obsession, most of the fun was related to the chase.
Doing your runnings and taking little risks is a great way to release an adrenaline spike. That’s a substance we all crave like no other!
I like being a bit edgy(whilst doing no real harm). I downright love breaking an unfair and unjust law!
I like it that all the wankers disapprove of me! If they legalise it, said wankers will start doing it. They’ll still hate me and I them, only difference is I’ll have lost the smug satisfaction of knowing what they’re missing and enjoying my individuality.
My closest friendships have been made and proven in our collective efforts to maintain a supply of something nice. Like bands of brothers. Celebrating success together, sharing the fun and occasional disasters.
No fun in walking over the shops is there? What about work and driving? I mean you’ve got to watch what you do on social media, how do you think you’re boss etc will react to open drug use?
It’ll still be drugs remember. Naagh, keep it on the low I say. I hope they never legalise it.
It ain’t gonna be nearly as much fun. It isn’t going to be any cheaper. Quality will still be hit and miss. The government will have a field day. But most of all as previously stated all the wankers will start doing it.
Medical? Yes. Small medical grows? Yes. Full on recreational legalisation? Not for me thanks!

AMen bigga fuck dem we don't need their permission, and if this shit here reminds me things can work more civil without them then thats a bonus.

Dead on mate, its a lose-lose I’m convinced. A lot of people will get very rich(not us obviously). Cynical business making all the decisions regarding the thing we all love and have nurtured together as a community. I’m open to a single good reason for it, I haven’t heard anything compelling yet.
I think personally it’s a case of people being careful what they wish for. In case we get it.
Government and legislators won’t understand the minutiae and we’ll end up choosing between red, blue or silver top! They’ll want to regulate and standardise and make everything”safe” for the idiots. They’ll all start sueing each other over who invented white widow or whatever.
Run away as fast as we can. This time we need to hide more carefully as well. We’re doing ok without them people.
Peace

Good reasons for legalisation/regulation:

1. Easy access for disabled/medical patients.
2. Ban the use of contaminants/unsafe fertilizers. Over the years we've seen foliar feeds that contain latex polymers. Liquid sugar/finely ground glass/cornflour/spice and similar chemicals sprayed onto plants. Not to mention hash made of henna/hay/oil/any old shit and the recent problems with carts.
3. Less paranoia.
4. Tax revenue that can be directed into public services.
5. Boost to economy, boost to tourism.
6. An end to kids getting a criminal record for something that shouldn't be a crime.
7. Gradual removal of social stigma.
8. Walking over the shop may not be fun, but it's very convenient.
9. A chance for cottage industries to start competing and growing in a legal marketplace.
10. A raising of standards - I'm told Californian mid-shelf is better than UK top shelf.
11. A much needed counter-balance to the (frankly depraved and embarrassing) UK binge drinking culture, hopefully leading to a more relaxed, European style cafe culture.
12. A more social cannabis scene. With coffeeshops and dispensaries people will have a reason to go out and mix more. An end to the stereotype of the isolated stoner.

I know most of us here are okay now. But what about the youngsters getting sold rubbish? The elderly and disabled going without medicine?

All this balanced against the chance to feel like a rebel and a load of running around. With respect, I'd take legalisation and regulation any day.

The uk drugs minster needs replaced for a start, she wont discuss the topic of legalisation even though her husbands involved in cultivation of medical in the uk. Its absurd. I think we're a good few years away yet.

I hope after Brexit and when May is not our PM.. she is dead against cannabis. Even for medicinal purposes..

Thats exactly how it will happen mate.

Trouble is that all the old fogeys in the house of lords are still all "reefer madness" about it. Until they change their minds or die off and get replaced by younger lords, it'll never happen. I believe medical thc will eventually become a viable medicine. But it will be administered as some kind of extract probably taken as a pill or liquid instead of a good old fashioned spliff.

I don't know...if public opinion shifts to the extent a majority of MPs got on board I doubt the Lords would stand in the way.

Now Canada and a large portion of the US has legalised, and much more is becoming known about the plant and its relative safety & even benefits, I would think it's just a matter of time before some form of legalisation comes to Europe, and the UK. If we had the rates of use of US & Canada maybe it'd be happening already but there's less users and a more conservative view overall about it I'd say, so it'll take longer but it will happen

I do hope so. And yeah you're probably right. When enough people stand up and say it needs doing, and mps get behind it. They won't have a choice. But yeah it'll probably take a long time. In the meantime I'll continue to tend to my crops on the quiet. Waiting patiently for the day I can come out of the shadows.

To be honest imo we only need decriminalization. That's what has happened in Barcelona. There is a UN law that states you are allowed member only, non profit clubs once that happens.
All above board tax and wage paying businesses.
Notice someone say May us dead against drugs, I don't think thatthat's true as her husband Philip has a great business selling it to the NHS. Only reason I can think is because they want control over it is either for personal profit or they don't think us Plebs can be trusted to run sensible above board businesses.

Probably some time after 31st October 2019. Once we've got Brexit out the way, a lot of people will need a good smoke to either unwind or get up and go.

I'm think around 5 years time, so around 2025 ish, if not fully legalised by then.

Must admit I do like the rebelliousnes of it.
