I don't know. I was blackout drunk when i've had my issues.

Yeah, I don't think they'd just randomly check...
However, I AM 18, not under. Unfortunate you are an adult. I've had to deal with the cops more than once and I would have been in serious serious trouble if I was an adult at the time. Err... what trouble? hah... stuff. It's in my past now.

I think if you were under 18 it would clear once you hit 18 (but maybe that would only be an actual criminal record), wheras if you are over 18 it clears in 5 years. If you are ever in a situation where you know a check will be done, I believe it's usually in your best interests to be up front about the situation rather than have them find out through the check. That being said, the situation remains not that big of a deal so long as it doesn't happen repeatedly.

You don't have a record, and no ones going to check anyway. Just let it go. don't tell them anything

How's that for a moral to my story? haha

Everything in moderation. Drinking and drugs can both be done without any serious adverse side-effects.

You mean long term, I meant short term, but thanks for bringing it up. Respiratory, circulatory, digestive, mental, emotional, other long term physical problems also occur with enough repetition

Well I think what I said applies to everything but pot, which might just make you a bit slower. More I meant the sort term issues, eg. what you do while you;re that phooeyd.

There are plenty of drugs without serious long-term effects if used appropriately. As for short-term effects, those are the point of using the drugs. If you don't like the effect of the drug, don't use it. That said, how can you know if you like or dislike it if you've never tried it?

Followed by a reasoning behind why they are not legal, if they are appropriate. Also, I mean the bad short term effects. Serious injury, embarrasment, breaking the law, death, etc. as opposed to the good ones, "you feel cool".

Serious injury, embarrasment, breaking the law, death, etc. as opposed to the good ones, "you feel cool". Appropriate use? How about using it within reason so there are no serious, negative consequences? What that means depend on you and your tolerance level. Personally, I can hammer back a 12-pack and have a great time with no real negative side effects. I can take a few bong hits without anything happening other than being in a different mindset. I have also ingested shrooms and had nothing but a great time, and of course, no negative side effects. Why are drugs illegal? First of all, alcohol is legal. For illegal drugs, I suggest you watch the History Channel mini-series Hooked: Illegal Drugs and How They Got That Way. Many drugs are illegal for reasons completely unrelated to their effects. For example, marijuana was used as a way to target minority groups (specifically blacks and Mexican immigrants) and have them arrested and/or extradited. The reality is the only information on drugs you have was provided to you by the government which is notorious for its anti-drug propaganda.

And no, scientific studies just as much. Anyway, if you;re regularly "hammering back 12 packs" and doing pot and shrooms, you will have negative side effects, you just dont notice them yet. Some time, maybe you hammer back a beer or 2 too many, and get hit by a car, or hit someone with a car, or fall off a balcony, trust me DUMB CRAP happens when u screw with ur brain. more than u tihnk. Maybe that doesnt happen, either way, the long term effects are there.
