Drug Speech
Duder, are you going to be talking to students about why marijuana should be legalized, or are you just going to do the standard "drugs are bad, mkay?" speech?
First off... bein' a guest speaker is awesome - I've never been treated so nicely at school.
It was rough because a lot of the lil' bastard took shots at me and asked hard questions involving marijuana impaired driving, kids moving on to meth if it was legal, and long-term possible effects.
A girl actually thought you could O.D. on marijuana and I laughed my ass off. ^^
Their was the classic "Drugs are bad retard!" annoying shit in the room too.
Best was how I really got through to 'em about how its more of a revolving door drug then a gateway drug. Depending on what kind of person ya are, it may get ya into harder things, or it may get ya off of harder things - or keep you from ever touching them.
Their was a socials teacher who I could tell hated stoners that just kept attacking me and attacking me tryin' to make me fuck up - good thing I watch question periods and other political crap so I knew the game he was playin' perfectly.
He interrupted me well over 6 times, claimed I proved my own points wrong before I even fully stated them, and he pulled out papers with statistics agianst marijuana on it.
The dude was prepared, experinced, and knew his arguement well.
I was pulled out of bed for this in the mornin', first time as a guest speaker, and smoked 4 bowls of decent shake before goin'. :3
Twas a good day. I feel like such a marijuana activist.
