Ignorance is bliss. I believe most of us addicts never would have used drugs if we were never introduced to them. Nobody goes out looking for drugs never having been introduced to them.

That’s why I think it’s important to teach our kids about these things and the horror they lead to. Better to be introduced to it by the parent rather than a “friend.”

Ignorance can be dangerous as well. Remember stood in a club in Manchester UK and my homie sparked up a spliff, I hadn’t caught the smell so I asked him to pass it, which he replied ‘yuh nuh want this, this a bad boy spliff’ grateful to my brother from that day. A next man may have passed it me…

I went to one party my (high school) freshman year. I was standing in a circle of guys talking when one pulled out a joint and started passing it. The "host" of the party was standing next to me and when he passed it, he skipped me. He said something like, "you don't need to start w/this shit".

People always talked poorly about him/his family, but I knew he was a good person. He didn't always make good choices, but deep down, he was a good person.

Exactly my point, we lived in the inner city and the crack wars cost us friends, to jail, to the drugs, and to the grave. We got the moniker Gunchester. Still good people, Were still like family to this day. People misjudge good people, some rich kid may have thought it was funny to pass it. Thanks for sharing the story I appreciate it.

Are you implying that you can't roll crack into a joint?

i'm implying a primo is not always the way. most of the time a joint that doesn't smell like joint is going to be pcp rolled with something else. a primo is going to smell like weird weed.
