Okay so tell me...

How come it's okay for people to snort cocaine and TONS of people to be completely hooked on cigarettes PROVEN to cause a terminal illness to them and those around them, and yet when one person experiments with a drug ONE time it becomes headlines and means for humiliation and turmoil? We're all young we will all try things and learn from it ( Read more... )

Darci, I passed no judgement on her, and I spoke with her tonight and it was perfectly fine. So don't be so fucking flippant, you're doing your part to stick your nose into someone elses business too. At least I'm well aware that my livejournal is a gossip tabloid.

Tim, my post was in no way directed at you. Don't use the word flippant cause I don't know what that means. lauren is my best friend so it's not "sticking my nose into someone elses business"

what do cigarettes have to do with your best friend doing opium? you can't buy opium packs in stores.

i can voice whatever opinion i want. i'm sick of friends patting eachother's asses and ignoring the fact that their good friends are getting into dangerous drugs.

perhaps its my lingering straightedge mentallity, but i think it's pretty stupid to ignore shit like that, rather than try to talk them out of it.

'We're all young we will all try things and learn from it....'
experiment my ass. try having the common sense and education to know what's not smart to do in the first place. also, one should expect to catch gruff for such a rash change in values.

I was simply making the comparison because while we all take this opportunity to make sure Lauren will never do this again, in whatever we choose to get that point across, At the same time we all sit back and watch our friends slowly kill themselves and others around them by smoking cigarettes. Does it make this okay just cause you can buy cigarettes in packs in a store?? just because they aren't illegal makes them okay?
Alex, lauren is my best friend and there was no ass-patting or ignoring. we all chose different ways to let lauren know how we felt about her mistake.

on second thought, i think people who smoke cigarettes are much stupider than a person who has tryed opium. opium will get you fucked up, cigarettes will just make you fit in. regardless, i think anyone who would do either should have rocks thrown at them.

i dont think its ok for people to snort cocaine.

i agree its her choice her life her decision.

but for the record smoking opium isnt dangerous...well at least as far as od'ing goes because you would have to smoke more than an ounce in under an hours time to even come close to od'ing.(which is impossible youd pass out far from smoking an ounce)

not saying its right or wrong she did it, cause anytime you pass judgement on someone you immediatly put yourself in the wrong, at least in my opinon.

after typing all that i just realized it probally wont let me post this in your journal.

well you dont even HAVE to make the comparison here, because it IS heroin!
