if it bothers you, don't read it

The OP lives in the Dominican Republic so I thought I'd look up the marijuana laws there. Holy Smoke, Batman! These would be enough of a deterrence for me, and everything I read says the laws are strictly enforced.
"A number of countries, including... the Dominican Republic..., have enacted more stringent drug laws which impose mandatory jail sentences for individuals convicted of possessing even small amounts of marijuana or cocaine for personal use."
In addition to the mandatory jail time there are fines and, if you can't pay the fines, you get a day in jail for every peso - up to two years IN ADDITION to the possession sentence.
And accomplices get the same punishment as the principal offender.
"MARIJUANA:
CATEGORY ONE: Simple Possession. This means possession of 20 grams or less.
CATEGORY TWO: Distributor, Vendor. This means possession of more than 20 grams and less than 1 (one) pound.
CATEGORY THREE: Trafficker. This means possession of 1 (one) pound or more.
CATEGORY ONE: Simple Possession.
Minimum: 6 months in prison and RD$1,500 fine.
Maximum: 2 years in prison and RD$2,500 fine.
CATEGORY TWO: Distributor, Vender.
Minimum: 3 years in prison and RD$10,000 fine.
Maximum: 10 years in prison and RD$50,000 fine.
CATEGORY THREE: Trafficker.
Minimum: 5 years in prison and more than RD$50,000 fine.
Maximum: 20 years in prison and more than RD$50,000 fine.
A fine of no lesser value than the value of the seized controlled drugs or involvement in the operation, but in no instance less than RD$50,000"

did not know he lived in the Dom Rep, or that they were that strict. In this new light I would say...STOP SMOKING POT IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC lol. Here...you get caught, the cop my throw it away, if not you get probation probably.....

Suck it up. How old are you ?
iam 19, got a decent job (iam here cause iam saving some money) got decent grades on collage, everything is fine, and i talked to him pretty cool cause of the subject, but my patience is running out, he still thinks weed is a monster and words doesnt seem to do anything
Whatever to your update. I don't believe it for a moment. :roll:Originally posted by: jimmypage13
my mom found some weed in my bathroom.... yeah its my fault... but my dad is goin crazy!!!!! and i mean wtf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? he belives i need weed for livin and that i smoke cause i got a problem with my life (he was an alcoholic and i think he belives that he wasnt a good father and thts why i smoked weed) and he also thinks that one day ill trip out and hit my sister cause a bad trip.. iam like wtf dude? this is weed no LSD or some ******.... damn i hate him so much right now, i somke weed cause i like it and i do it like weekly, not because i wanna kill myself!!!!!!!!!! wtf do they teach you on AA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
Update: first of all, I did not talk to my father with those word, I spoke very politely to him (the first conversation) and he didnt belive me, he thought I was brainwashed cause I was telling him the reality of marijuana. I wrote those word on ATOT because at that very moment I needed a brake, like to tell the stuff the way I really want it, to relieve all those stuff that were in my head. (the word in spanish is -desahogarme- I do not know the proper word for this on english and a translator couldnt help me.
Then after a little research I spoke with my dad again (show him some facts) and watched a documental of the history channel about marijuana, at the end he learned he was wrong (he has the wrong perception of marijuana) and told me he was ok as long I didnt get cought or college grades when down (my gpa is currently at 3.8).
So, peace and love guys and here is a link for some facts http://www.drugpolicy.org/marijuana/factsmyths/

I smoked weed for two years straight while living with my Dad after high school and to my knowledge never got caught.
Dont do dumbass things like keep it in the house. That's just asking for trouble.
I always kept it in my car.
So living with your Dad as an adult and smoking weed aren't related? Hmmmm.
Any recreational drug can be a bad thing. It's a risk that as a youth shouldn't be shurgged off as "it's no big deal". If I EVER caught my offspring yet to be born making the same mistakes I did I would make the consequences very clear.
Am I hypocritical? Sure as heck am. But after traveling a path you can tell those following you to not follow that path. That's not hypocrite.
Damn, I hate how everyone on ATOT thinks they're better than everyone else.
I lived with my Dad because I was going to community college to save money. My Dad didnt have the money to send me to a four year school right out of college and I didnt want him to feel like he somehow had to make that happen. I smoked weed for recreation almost every day, a couple times a day while holding a steady job and pulling a 3.7 GPA.
IMO, a drug like weed is harmless so long as it doesnt take over your life. If you can handle it without it affecting your job or school, then I say burn till your heart's content. In this respect it is no worse than alcohol.

Would that really be the most beneficial action for your child in the long run?

kick him out of the house and marry your mother.
Bolded 2: You have got to be kidding me.....are you seriously that naive? How much money do you think you spend on weed each time?
Are you telling me that you couldn't have done something (pick anything) more productive with your life then smoking weed? Looks like someone needs a reality check.

I didn't state anywhere that it bothers me. Just a trend I noticed.
once you've been here long enough you'll notice that everything is a repost
