The difference between ignorance and racism is that ignorance is not knowing about different races and their cultures, racism is making prejuidicial thoughts or statements or actions based upon that ignorance. For example, if a very sheltered young (let's say, eight years old) white kid asks the first black dude he meets on the street "What part of Africa are you from?" he's just uneducated and ignorant, not racist. But if he says "Go back to Africa, [bleep]." then he's racist.

If you skip the sex, it works great for anyone. I thought it was "Whats the best way to clear your mind?" not "Whats the best way to clear your mind that is appropriate for people who are unaware of sexual intercouse?"

Ragen Edit Too graphic.

Lay in bed with somebdoy you've just had sex with, for hours. Don't do anything. Get up and make pancakes around 3:00 or 4:00. Go back to bed.

Actually, it is. Nobody has ever died from smoking pot. Marijuana doesn't cause cancer (even if you find a study that says it does, courtesy of the US gov't, then users can still eat the marijuana or smoke it from a bong to avoid carcinogens). Marijuana shrinks tumours. Using marijuana while driving or right before driving increases your risk of getting into a crash. But using fast food while driving, or using the radio while driving, or having passengers in the car, can also increase your risk of getting into an accident.

I guess propaganda isn't a good substitute for life experience. People for the most part don't try smoking pot because they think it will transform them into somebody cool, and almost noobdy is pressured into trying it. Yeah, I mean, it's not like anybody uses it to reduce the wasting effect of AIDS, help prevent cataracts, or make themselves happier. It's not like it's one of the oldest medicines known to humankind, grown by George Washington (who said "Spread the Indian Hemp seed wherever you go!") and proven to be completely safe by even the governments tests. It's not like the first marijuana laws in the USA were against not growing marijuana. It's not like you failed to do any research, or anything.

You can find all kinds of deadly things in nature. Just because something is natural does not mean its safe. This is even true of chemicals found in the human body. Anyway, creatine is safe and is in quite a few of my favorite energy drinks. My favorite is Sobe Courage.

Most people start smoking because they want to know what its like and if they like it. They keep using because they like it and it isn't harmful to them. Peer pressure is just a buzzword, it does not accurately describe what goes on in reality. Go ask the stoners at your school (if you go to a public highschool, there will be plenty around) how many of them ever experienced "Peer Pressure" to smoke pot. See for yourself the reality of the situation.

As with any substance, some people will choose to use marijuana responsibly and some people will abuse it. The substance should be judged upon it's effects on people, not how people decide to use it. Marijuana is safe.

Nobody has ever died from smoking marijuana.

Whoever knew enough to buy put options for companies that occupied large parts of the world trade center, and United and American Airlines, knew enough to prevent the 9/11 terrorist attacks. http://911research.wtc7.net/sept11/stockputs.html

Yeah. Cigarettes smell bad if you don't smoke. If you do, they smell really good. That's not true...Weed was made illegal in 1937 because Henry Anslinger used the mass media (Randolph Hearst) to spread false stories of black men raping white women by using marijuana and jazz music. The jazz scene did have widespread marijuana use, players smoking up and playing huge sets of awesome improv, amazing use of an amazing natural substance. But the stories did their work, people testefied in congress about the dangers of marijuana, and the media published newspaper articles and made movies about insanity, death, and homicide all being common side effects of marijuana. Reefer Madness is a good exampe of this genre.

Already been said...Maddox raises a good point, that if somebody actually uncovered the truth the government would shut them up, but all that means is that nobody has figured out what really happened on 9/11 yet. The government isn't really bothered by people exposing their lies, as long as nobody figures out what really happened. People expect the government to lie, and many assume they are just covering their incompetent response to the attacks. It's up to us, the citizens of the United States, to demand a complete and accurate investigation of the attacks.

Yes...I have provided sources for my information. For example, a BBC story showing some of the hijackers are still alive. Does that change any of your minds? It probably won't. When this many people have been brainwashed by the government, facts don't usually make a difference. If you see any information where you have questions about the credibility: Ask. I'll show you detailed information proving it to be correct.

You, like many of the people in this thread, have failed to grasp the basic premise: The 9/11 Commission, claiming to provide a complete and accurate account of the attacks of September 11, 2001, released their final report full of lies, and unexplained questions. You say my theory has holes in it...To what theory are you referring? I have backed up my assertion that the official story is full of lies, and have not presented an alternate version to the events of 9/11. All it takes is a little laziness on your part. Have you looked up the Project for the New American Century? Bechtel? Aqaba Pipeline? Obviously you are not one of the people who noticed that things were done intentionally to thwart our response. You must have missed the Pentagons air defense system failing, the fighter jets that failed to scramble and shoot down the enemy planes, the multiple war games and training exercises planned on 9/11, and the fact that almost the entire chain of command went missing at the critical time. But you probably haven't read the 9/11 Commission Report or anything else on the subject, so I shouldn't blame you for your ignorance.

The war on terror, brought about by politicians who are funded by their willingness to give no-contract bids and support companies like Bechtel who have plenty of motivation to encourage the culture of corruption (the Aqaba pipeline for example) in Washington. There is a paper trail. The Project for the New American Century, the Carlyle Group, do some research. And I'm not going to even get into the lobbyists (Jake Abramoff anyone?) or [bleep] Cheney's attempts to cover up the lying that got us into Iraq (Scooter Libby). The war on drugs is an example of the evil of our government. Raymond Kendall secretary general of INTERPOL January 1994 George Washington Albert Einstein. Finally, most children who grew up in the era of George Bush's childhood were spanked, it's not unreasonable to assume he was. My point is more that spanking didn't save him from growing up into a weak, gormless, evil man.

Your right, youth rebellion occurs because parents don't beat their kids, not because it's a vital part of human growth and development closely connected with human beings rise to self-aware intelligent beings (in Ancient Greek societies which formed cradle of modern philosophy and thought, teenagers were given complete freedom to choose their own path in life). It's not as if kids in the USA are rebelling against a legitimate evil; a corrupt and lying government, a dangerous and innefective war on drugs, and a massive effort to drug up kids on manufactured speed and anti-depressents. High school sucks. I dropped out, best choice I ever made. I got my GED and now I'm going to college, where you can get a real education. Nothings wrong with dropping out. With modern medicine more and more people are living older and older. People need to live their lives, not live old peoples lives for them. For thousands of years people have been complaining about how little children respect their elders, maybe the elders should shut the hell up and try to fix the world while they are adults. However much I love my parents, they are still the [wagon] who elected George Bush, allowed the disastrous war on terrorism and war on drugs to continue, helped [bleep] the environment over, and allowed the events of September 11 to go uninvestigated. Look at America, a culture of freedom and love, peace and prosperity, being dragged down by it's "Conservative" corrupt and evil government run by [wagon] who were probably spanked alot as children.

We don't need to bring back capital punishment, we need to end the dangerous war on drugs which turns average americans into criminals. Marijuana is one of the safest substances known to mankind, it's lethal dose being higher than that of the potato. Spending on the war on drug is astronomical compared to spending on rehabiliation and programs to help addicts, addiction should be treated as a sickness not a crime.

I'm sure many young people do suffer from autism and the lack of positive medical solutions to their problem, yet the most important medicine of our times is marijuana. Acting as an anti-convulsant, relaxing stimulant, and overall mental wellness booster, look no further than mans oldest medicine (ancient Chinese cannabis jars prove it's healthy helpful use back into antiquity). Unlike manufactured prescription drugs, marijuana is neither addictive nor dangerous. I've seen kids doing lines of ritalin in the bathroom, my friends popping five times their normal dosage of xanax for a light trip, and as many abuses of these common drugs as you can think of. They are all more dangerous and less effective than marijuana. Well, that wasn't my point. Most children who are on doctor prescribed speed or anti-depresants do not have an illness which requires their use. "Special" children already recieve a much larger per student funding than normal children, and I see the dumbing down of average students with dangerous drugs as a way to make everyone "Special". Screw that, smart kids need to achieve without being burdened with the mainstreaming of [developmentally delayed]ed children or having prescription drugs pushed on them by their parents.

Spanking makes more sense than giving your kids speed (adderall, ritalin) or anti-depressants (prozac, xanax), which seems to be a more popular choice than spanking in child-rearing these days. A lazy child has ADDHD, an antisocial child is depressed. The government should stay out of how parents discipline their children unless there are allegations of abuse, they should spend more time trying to end Americas chemical solutions to personal problems.

I have only presented one theory; that the 9/11 commission report did not fully investigate the terrorist attacks against the US, and they lied about or removed much of the information they did uncover. This I have already proved several times. One only needs to go to the NIST (government funded research organization) and see that they have no explanation of how WTC7 fell (because if you believe the official government story, there is no explanation. The implication here is that the government isn't yet prepared to explain what happened. That means the 9/11 commission report was the furthest thing from a complete and accurate report on the events of September 11 . Instead it ignored the unexplainable occurances, failed to subpoena the most important evidence of the attacks, such as film from a gas station near the pentagon, Larry Silversteins explanation of how WTC7 fell, and interviews with firefighters and witnesses who were at the scene. Instead it's full of garbage like George Bush telling us how excellent the pilot that hit the pentagon was, because he was a pilot too and he knows how hard flying is. Wake up and realize that it isn't that farfetched to believe the US government would lie to it's people. Remember the Maine? The ghost ships that helped cause the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution? There are also important questions of common sense which were not answered by the 9/11 commission. For example, the terrorists who crashed a plane into the Pentagon flew over a nuclear power plant on the way there. Crashing into the plant would have killed more people, caused more destruction, and generally would have been a much more terrifying plan than crashing into the under-construction area of the pentagon (which the pilot of the hijacked plane, who coincedentally failed out of flight school, had to execute an extremely difficult maneuvre to hit). Why did the terrorists fly over this obviously more attractive target? According to the 9/11 commission report, they were worried it was defended by anti-aircraft defense. And the pentagon isn't? There is no way the plane could have hit the pentagon unless something went very wrong with the Pentagons defensive systems, but the 9/11 commission ignores this obvious logical problem.

That is an interesting theory, which if true supports my position that the 9/11 commision is full of holes, and is hardly a definitive accurate report on one of the most important events of our times. Either way, the official explanation is bs, and they had plenty of time to investigate Silverstein and explain exactly what happened within the report. They should have subpoenaed him and questioned him fully.

Right, which is why you can explain exactly 0 of the factual errors in the 9/11 Commission Report I have posted. Will you please leave this thread? Several times you have proven with ease that you have nothing of value to contribute to the discussion. If at some later point in your life you feel like engaging in a debate, responding to my points, arguing with me, or doing anything other than trying to insert pithy comments which reaffirm your own defense mechanisms against a harsh cruel world and your own silly insecurities, feel free to come back.
