I am pretty convinced now that Rarity is a long time SA goon. They are a pretty sheltered and pious bunch over there, so the range of their conversations pretty much never deviates from somewhere between "OMG, these people are so stupid, let's laugh at them," and "OMG, these people are doing bad things, let's explain to them how immoral they are." So just ignore him, and he'll eventually retreat to his home forum.

Can people stop attacking dank?

I mean I find the idea of >3% per week profits to be hard to believe but pages and pages and pages of attacking him?  What is the point? Anyone who is invested is obviously not moved by it.  Anyone not invested has 19 pages of warning signs.  Does anyone think 21 pages is going to be a better deterrent.  Just seems kind pointless to keep piling on him.

Arnt you worried after seeing he just used your deposit to pay back an investor who requested a withdrawal?

Solid investment going on here.
DeathAndTaxes already said this, he doesn't have anything invested in Dank Bank.  You think I can control when people choose to deposit?

Rarity, the age verification form is their parents.  If their parent's can't stop them from getting a pipe shipped to their house then maybe they should talk to their kids.  I'm not going to intrude into my customers' private information (which could always be fake) to judge who is deemed acceptable and not.

Would you prefer kids smoking out of harmful, home-made, concoctions made of plastic?  Because that's their alternative right there.

Btw, Rarity, I respect your decision to not do drugs, but it's wrong to force your beliefs onto others.

I have been following this post and I have to side with deathandtaxes, as entertaining as this is, its just annoying now, The proof is in the pudding, people can read the 19 pages (LOL) and make their own mind up, Let's just kick back and see what happens.
I'm not defending, just a peacemaker, It's the mentallity here just to say bad things and call people sockpuppets, and so forth.
I for one think this will make dank even more determind to make his goal, and when he does, I expect apologies for the next 19 pages.

I recommend you go research cannabis for yourself, since you fail to realize it's a harmless plant.

I have done plenty of research.  The conclusion of scientific and medical experts is that marijuana is a dangerous drug, which is why it is legally restricted basically everywhere in the world.  The drug dealers who have lied to you about their dangerous product in order to treat you as a sucker and take your money are not where "research" comes from and they should not be treated as a trusted source.

http://www.narconon.org/drug-information/dangers-of-marijuana.html

Quote
Dangers in the immediate effects of marijuana include distortions of time and space perceptions and impaired coordination, all of which may be contributing to the increased risk of traffic accidents recently discovered.

Particularly important for students to know about is the creation of difficulty thinking or problem solving and impairment of memory and learning. These difficulties can last for as long as four weeks after drug use.

Chronic marijuana use and higher dosages are found to correlate to greater incidence of psychosis and schizophrenia. This point is particularly significant due to the increases in drug potency over the last two decades. While the average potency has risen from 3% THC (tetrahydrocannabinol - the intoxicating ingredient in marijuana) a couple of decades ago to 9% now, there are some samples of weed that measure as high as 25%. These premium strains are normally grown hydroponically, are often smuggled in from Canada and demand a higher price than commercial-grade marijuana from Mexico.

Heavy abusers of marijuana were found to suffer damage to social life, work or career status and cognitive ability. Schoolwork and the achievement of goals were also found to suffer.

But proponents of legalization, decriminalization or medicalization of marijuana do not make this clear to America's young people so they can make informed choices. By ranking marijuana in with medical treatments, the clear implication is that the drug is harmless.

Dank Glass isn't even operational yet, get off your highorse.  All I did was made a logo.

Do you plan to open this business with or without an effective age verification system?  What form will such a system take? Stop dodging the question.

It does indeed make me disillusioned when illegal drug paraphernalia is made available to children.  Do you have a plan in mind to verify the ages of those you sell paraphernalia to?  (Not that enabling adult addicts to continue their addiction is much better)
I don't think you understand how a free market works.

And you're the only one talking about children, nowhere did I say my target audience was children.

Please answer the question about age verification.  

The economy associated with drugs is not a free market, it is a market dependent on individuals being unable to make free choices because unscrupulous individuals have sold them a dangerous product that alters their mind and makes them make bad choices.

Such as allowing Citizens under the age of 18 to become part of the United States 'Democratic' process and vote ?

I know that the Green Party, a leftist party for sure, does support lowering the voting age.  Generally younger voters tend to vote to the left so it would be a benefit to the movement for the most part.  This does seem off topic from our discussion of the morality of Dank's plan to sell illegal drug paraphernalia to children however.

At least you might get some support from Rarity for your sea-steading venture if you revive that, dank.

I'm not sure what any spiritual beliefs I may or may not hold have to do with this discussion either.  People of all religions fall all over the different points on the political spectrum.
Are you a troll?  Is that why your Ignore button is highlighted?

Or are you seriously that disillusioned?

Being on the left means believing ......

Right. You are on the LEFT, like I have a 3rd leg......


If your views above are what YOU consider to be the 'LEFT'....please NEVER show me your idea of 'RIGHT'.....

A full third of the Democratic party, including President Obama, oppose the hideous policy of marijuana legalization.  Support for legalizing other deadly drugs is far lower.  The entire left has not fallen for this foolishness and there is a lot more to the left than supporting the legalization of child killing poisons.

Maybe people should look into the background of the Harrison Act (US legislation).  The illegality of most "drugs" today was based on the assertion "Black men rape White women".

Personally, I'm not a user and don't ever intend to be.  I've seen the positives and negatives of drug use on people (actually the same person), but they died of cancer.

Edit: (less serious) and while I don't usually post into Dank's thread, I will repeat I'm not going to run a Dank-Bank PPT.

Sure, I will take the 'gimme' answer and spew Amsterdam..... 99.99% 'Pot-Heads', 0.01% Crack/Cocaine/Meth-heads.

First off, like with Mushrooms the Netherlands has come to regret their insane policy in regards to Marijuana and they are starting efforts to deconstruct the abomination that is the coffee shops.  It's only a matter of time before they are gone entirely.

Quote
The Netherlands has a reputation -- distressing or appealing, depending on your point of view -- for a freewheeling attitude toward marijuana. Dutch citizens and drug-seeking foreign tourists alike flock to absurdly misnamed "coffee shops" to get their fix.

But Holland is rethinking that approach. A number of cities have shut down the so-called "coffee shops" that are located near schools, for instance, and now a Dutch judge has upheld a law that will prohibit foreigners from buying marijuana in the country. Under the law, the shops will become clubs that can have a maximum of 2,000 members apiece -- all of whom have to be residents of the Netherlands.

Quote
Coffee shops famous for selling cannabis in the Netherlands will be forced to remove some types of the drug from their stores  after new restrictions are brought in.

Due to higher potency levels, the Dutch government is reclassifying some strains of the plant to the same category as hard drugs.

Hahahaha, I'm a socialist from Clearwater, Florida.  Ask anyone who has debated economic policy with me around here how Republican I am.  Being on the left means believing in scientific truth, and the truth on drugs like Marijuana is that they are deadly and dangerous which is why they are banned nearly everywhere on the planet.

You cannot be physically addicted to cannabis.

Physical or mental, addiction is still just as dangerous and deadly and marijuana is one of the most addictive drugs of all.

Did You Know?  Each year, more teens enter treatment with a primary diagnosis of marijuana dependence than for all other illicit drugs combined.

Quote
Because it stays in your body up to four weeks after ingestion.  Because your body welcomes it.  Doesn't mean they were high when the accident happened.

"Your body welcomes it?"  What kind of hippy BS is that?  That is about equivalent to the "It's natural, man!" arguments as if there aren't millions of natural poisons in the environment.  As has been pointed out, marijuana use is extremely addictive and the reasons the users are such a menace on the road is their drug use.  Stop making excuses for your dangerous behavior.

Quote
One person kills themselves, possibly because they realized how shitty their life was and wanted to die, so we should outlaw it?  What about the 1/3 teens that kill themselves while drunk?

More two wrongs make a right?  Regardless, alcohol should be illegal too.  It is extremely dangerous and addictive.  The Netherlands did not act based on one death, but on many such lives being snuffed out for no reason.  You may think it's okay to sell products that kill children, but most people don't.

Quote
[Addiction is 95% mental, I'm sure you're addicted to a few things as well.  Doctors rob people of their ability to control their use by convincing them it's a disease.  That's too bad, you're missing a lot in life.

I am not addicted to any dangerous recreational drugs or anything else.  Your addiction is making you lash out at the person trying to help you because it lies to you to try and make you think your behavior is okay. It isn't.  It hurts yourself and the people around you and if you enter into the business of illegal paraphernalia sales it will very likely ruin your career as well when you are charged and convicted.  In the name of protecting the children I am now starting to collect data on you to forward to the authorities.  I will not sit idly by while you ruin lives in the name of profit.

Quote
No, it is ok, because it's their life, I'm not going to outlaw TVs and fast food because people destroy their selves with them.

Both entertainment and food have significant non-dangerous uses and are a an essential part of the functioning of our country.   Your use of mind numbing, dangerous substances has no comparable alternate usage.  It does nothing but harm.

Quote
Statistically, no, prohibition doesn't work.  America, the great founder of the war on (some) drugs, has the highest drug use.  While Portugal, a country that has decriminalized drugs, has seen over a 50% reduction since decriminalizing.  Weird.

That America started a war does not mean that they are doing it right.  With increased penalties and enforcement usage rates would plummet to the levels of Singapore.  It is quite simply a lie that prohibition doesn't work.  The policy is poorly implemented, but we have examples of how it can work.  

The policy in Portugal is not legalization.  No country is insane enough to support such a policy.  Addicts are forced by the government into treatment and manufacturers and distributors are still harshly punished.  Portugal is just another example of a policy of prohibition that can work.  It is absurd that you cite it, but your mind is obviously too addled by drug use to see it.

Quote
You got that part right, you, I and everyone else is a drug user.  Ever felt happy?  Or sad?  Or love?  Or had a dream?  Those are the drugs altering your conscience.

The natural process of the body is not a drug.  It is a system that has evolved to drive us toward the pursuit of things vital for survival and the avoidance of things that are not.  The danger of deadly drugs like Marijuana is that they short circuit this process and encourage the pursuit of deadly poisons.

Quote
And by the way, I'm not a habitual drug user, or drug addict as you would say.

It is clear that you are.  Most deny it, exactly as you are.  I feel very sad for you that you are living in this state of denial.  You can be free of your depraved drug seeking life style if you seek treatment.  Admitting that you have a problem is an important first step.
