Ricky Williams (official thread)

I agree with the role model part but i do disagree with the drug addict/pot link.. you told me earlier you don't see a diffrence between pot and crack.. this is one of the many diffrences.. pills, alcohol, crack, blow, meth etc etc sure but pot? so me where marijuana is physically addictive.. it may be mentally addicting but IMO thats on the indivual.. which brings me to my next point:


Disagree here because while being around a dope dealer may put you around blow or some other drugs, its on the indivdual to take that step and enter that world.. IMO at least, im sure everyone here has had diffrent situations but i really feel that it is on the indivual and their mind


Hmm something tells me people need to stop citing the 'majority public' and start dealing with facts..
Pot laws in Ohio:
Possesion of less than 100 grams:
Minor misdemeanor & 100 dollar fine.. an ounce is 28 grams so you'd need to have a TON of bud to approach 100 grams, so if your not dealing you're pretty much fine in ohio.. oh yeah the minor misdemanor means it does NOT go on your record.

You also should research the history of the "drug" from ancient times through present, wont take much but it really is fascinating.. pot became 'bad' in only the last half century or so.. it helped advance many cultures, as a matter of fact with out the indian hemp seed this country may not nearly be what it is today.


As shown above the penalties.. pot is a 'slap on the wrist' too you're talking without any fact at all, just your preconcieved notions

obviously our government sees some diffrence between crack & pot, regaurdless if you do or not, or the 'majority'

the point is him as an individual makes that choice so thats the fact of the matter. it is also a fact of the matter that many individuals do get blazed then end up experimenting with other drugs. this has been proven by near everybody even if it may not be in your or anybody else's claim. cocaine used to be put into coca cola back in the day and everybody loved it.........doesn't make it anymore right. and you want to cite the facts of the legality of matter......i want to point out the reality of the matter. if an athlete gets pulled over for a seatbelt violation it is next to no problem and will not show up in the news......but if it is with drugs.......well i find that to be self explanatory.

If you've read any of my other posts on this subject, i believe Ricky is in the wrong here

first of all, in no way can you or anyone, nor would anyone with any credibility even attempt to, prove that if you get blazed you do other drugs.. thats absolutley redic. like i already said once, being around a drug dealer leaves the door wide open and makes access easier to other drugs, be it mushrooms, X, blow, whatever.. HOWEVER it is on the individual user to go that route. In NO WAY is smoking pot responsible..

thats fair enough and i agree, preception is reality.. but marijuana in personal amounts really isn't a big deal to the government obviously was the point, may be to the 'majority' but i'd be willing to bet the 'majority' isn't educated on the manner.

geez.. this thread needs to be retitled... to debate the evils of pot or something

Ricky Williams has been very open that he really likes to smoke pot
He probably likes to smoke pot more than he cares to play RB in the NFL...
It's as simple as that...

If they weren't taking back his signing money... he'd quit and just smoke pot

Yup. Ricky needs to move on, maybe head to Amesterdam and grow his own, call it Bonghorn (credit to mili)

Tron is right.

We can choose to do whatever the fuck we want. What we cannot do is choose the consequences of our actions.

Those consequences keep most of us on the straight and narrow even though we have the freedom to choose otherwise on a daily basis.

Thats what Ive been trying to say, just could not get the words out.
