Seriously though I think weed can help you look at situations from a different angle, which may sometimes enable you to foresee certain events you wouldn't have otherwise. A large amount of the time though your predictions are going to be wrong though, and being stoned all the time probably also obscures your ability to anticipate some outcomes that might otherwise have been pretty obvious. Since only your correct predictions will be particularly memorable, it creates the illusion that you were right more of the time than you actually were.

if I put pizza rolls in the oven and they burn, and I hop off the couch because I think theyre burning, its not because I can predict the future.
Its because I'm high as shit and I forgot to take the cocksuckers out when the buzzer went off.

Eventually in the USA, a black man recently released from prison, will walk into a gas station, hand them hid prisoner Id, and then purchase a large amount of grade A weed. And go home and smoke.
And not a single Mexican retard will have to get head cut off over it, since it will be legal in the USA.
Mexico is killing itself because America says weed is illegal so Mexico kills itself to sell it to us killing thier own people in illegal drug trades.

Shiver I really dont think mexico is importing that much weed nowadays im sure its all over the harder drugs like cocaine, meth, etc.
When I first started smoking I literally kept analyzing all the possible future outcomes of my actions and was thinking that I could see things unfold before they happened. Funny you mentioned it

I want the USA to legalise weed, then invade Mexico and fucking kill those fags who are killing people because weed is illegal in Mexico. Guess what, weed is only illegal in Mexico cuz it's illegal in USA. I want to fucking shoot Mexicans for being so passive aggressive. You let your own people die because of America's laws. Smart. Not. Faggots.

Heard on the news the other day Az is thinking of following the shoes of CO and WA, even Senator John MCaine said "maybe we should legalize it already " they say by 2015 the medical marijuana will bring in about 40 million in revenue.
About God damn time.
