Back in the day when I had Vitamins T H and C in my system, the last thing I wanted to do was fight someone. Mothers herb does not make you violent, quite the contrary.

The naked Florida man who chewed off the face of another man last month in a zombie-like cannibal attack used marijuana but not "bath salts" as police had suspected, authorities said Wednesday.

Now, I would say that the clear majority of people are relaxed by pot usage and there's a lot more than just one person's experience to point to as far as evidence goes. However, I've seen a man that was a chimney pipe start screaming and smashing trash cans in the driveway with his bare fists when he ran out of pot and my former roomate go from chill to confrontational at the slightest bit of provocation. While my experiences are also not a basis for a sweeping generalization and in the first example this guy was obviously a massive addict and nowhere close to your standard pot user, virtually every drug, legal or otherwise affects different people differently. When said drug starts wearing off, the behavior changes as well. This was the only point I was trying to make, clearly I was not verbose but having gone straight from this topic to a big article on cnn's homepage amused me.


Wait, since when do you expect anything valuable from me? [palm]

Apparently I'm just not making any sense and the world is a giant, simple place where everyone's brain chemistry is the same except mine.

"He brought a gun to a struggle, to a fight that he started ... wanting to make sure the victim didn't get away," the prosecutor said. "And now he wants you to let him off because he killed the only eyewitness, the victim Trayvon Martin, who was being followed by this man."

A woman in Florida was being strangled by her husband and she tried escaping. She ran to her car in the garage, but forgot her keys. She grabbed her gun and went back in the home to get them. The husband said he was going to kill her. Woman fired off the gun. She's now serving 20 years in prison. The woman claimed 'stand your ground' law as her defense and a judge in the case rejected the request, saying her decision to go back into the house was not consistent with someone in fear for her safety.

I mention this because if she can't use stand your ground, neither can George Zimmerman. As I've been trying to say, if he was in fear of his life, why did he leave his vehicle and pursue on foot?

And if they don't comment, they are insensitive assholes. Some of you need to shut the fuck up about whining about EVERYTHING! More like DepressionHome.com holy fuck!

How about we focus on the real issue here instead of being selfish idiots turning this into a political attack? A boy was KILLED wrongfully! What did he do to deserve such a fate? How does this relate to our society and stereo types? That's what we should focus on, not the fuck face politicians.


WE ALL AGREE POLITICIANS ARE FUCKING SCUM, TWO FACED WEAK MINDED LOSERS.


I read an article that the boy was on his phone with his girlfriend and said something about being scared that someone was following him? If the boy was such a threat, why was he being followed? Maybe I misunderstood something.

WRONGFULLY! It seems like you, at least in this forum, try to be the "voice of reason" - finding the middle course in discussions, etc. As I read this thread, everything (with the possible exception of Dakota hahahaha) was civil and not making unwarranted assumptions - other than you and your use of WRONGFULLY.

The prosecutor in his closing argument kept saying "Zimmerman made assumptions - WRONG assumptions", based on the fact that others - presumably black teens - had committed crimes and got away before the cops arrived. SOMEBODY should have said right then and there, it is a colossal ASSUMPTION that is likely to be WRONG as RIGHT when the prosecutor, the media, basically everybody commenting ASSUMES that the guy killed was NOT one of those habitual criminals who had always gotten away in the past - because the cops were late.

I hope Zimmerman gets off.

BTW, Obama was probably correct - if he had a son, he would be just like that hahahahaha.
