To make the world a better place cigarettes should have the following changes:

1: increase the taxes on tobacco so people will buy less of it. Put the tax money towards children's hospitals.

2: regulate the content of cigarettes so that they don't reek so bad. Like add in some chemicals, or reduce others.

3: also further regulate cigarettes to control and reduce nicotine content so people don't feed addictions as much.

4: deny state-sponsored health care to heavy smokers, and allow private insurers to deny coverage based on smoking.

5: rigidly enforce no-smoking rules in public places. Give smokers fines and the threat of a criminal record.

Nothing wrong with someone wanting to experience things differently through chemical substances, and can be perfectly fine if you know what you're doing.

I find smoking itself stupid because:
1) The effect it gives is too light, almost inexsistent.
2) It's harmful to your health if used for many years, which is what most smokers do.
3) It smells terrible and is harmful to other people nearby inhaling it.

Smoking and drinking is the same as ingesting poison. Drinking is better than smoking because at least you aren't pouring the drink into someone else mouth like smokers do. Smoking in public should be against the law, I don't care if you smoke meth in your house, but stay the fuck away from others, also smoking near children should also be against the law.

I think drugs should be legal, but smoking near others in public should be illegal they should rape you with a fine though by taking it directly out of your bank. If you want to drink bleach, smoke meth or do lines of crack whatever but trying to make it "cool" is stupid. Trying to drown out your pathetic life by ingesting poisons isn't "cool" it's pathetic and the drug culture is even more pathetic. If you want to walk around with dildos in your ass that's fine, but don't try and impress people and think others need to try it too.

If it isn't something you need to live why ingest it? Smoking anything doesn't benefit you in anyway it can only have negative side effects it just varies on what kind and when they appear. inb4 pot is just fine and someone says smoking it actually helpful in someway. Hemp seeds are actually pretty good for you,but burning pot and inhaling it not so much, smoke period isn't good to inhale.

I don't think THC benefits people and there is some studies which suggest it may have negative side effects. Even simple pain killers have side effects too, but I'm against "promoting" anything related to drugs. Like I said it should be legal, but promoting it should be illegal with a criminal charge too. People can ingest any number of drugs and the drug war is fake, our CIA and banks help run the drug trade. Hell our troops guard the opium, so it should not be illegal to use/grow similar to how drinking gas isn't illegal or taking 20 pain killers isn't.

Its tricky because of the illegal status it has people know about it more than if it was never made illegal. Hemp isn't a miracle plant, but it's very useful and people should be allowed to grow and if they choose to smoke/vaporize it whatever but the "culture" needs to be snuffed out. People can enjoy dildos in their ass but trying to make everyone "try" it like you gain a benefit from doing it is stupid.

Drinking is unique because in the past people needed to drink alcohol because the regular water was tainted. The fist thing built in Amerika when settlers landed was a brewery so they had something to drink because in Europe most of the water was tainted. Hemp was used to write our Declaration of Independents and Amendments.

I don't know. it shouldn't be illegal, but it shouldn't be promoted as the "trendy" thing to do. If people use it as pain killer whatever but drug culture is fucking stupid.

White Ren is not quality control, just a compulsive shitposter who replies to every single post in /jp/ with "reported" and would be banned indefinitely by now if said reports were actually filed. Conversely, if White Ren were actually contributing to board quality then moot would have given maid powers by now for all the hard work.

Visualize yourself in a mod's shoes, seeing more White Ren reports than active threads. You'd just ignore them and go about your business.

Haters gonna hate.

I do file those reports idiot. And moot doesn't know shit about this board, he doesn't pay any attention at all.

Your post has been reported for image macros outside of /b/ and being a moron. Enjoy your ban.

I don't hate anyone here, I just see no difference between 'reported' spammers and shitposters of other varieties.

This is the same line of thinking that says every thread on /jp/ is shit. Two perfectly valid options for this situation:

1: post a thread you'd like better than what you currently see.

2: go hang out in a different board with an atmosphere you enjoy more.

Forgot your trip and I doubt moot or any other mod wants to give janitor powers to tripfags on /jp/ who are the worst posts around. For every bad anonymous post we've got at least 3 tripfags with worse ones and anonymous doesn't always post garbage unlike tripfags who make it their job to be shitposters.

Buttmad faggot is new here. We actually have a low trip/anon ratio compared to most boards and we do have several good trips. Also no one insinuated that any of the tripfags are getting to be a janitor. Seriously, go back to /a/.

White Ren and the other forced-meme scrubs need to learn how to use greasemonkey instead of whining about threads they don't like.

Good plan, this will surely make the board better.
In fact, since you don't care for our posting why don't you just filter 'reported' or Ren's trip?
