Re: smokee bolt roll a likkle

'most' jamaicans did not 'try' ganja either...

when you say 'most' you are saying the majority of the population- over 50%;

i saw more yutes in america try herb than in jamaica...in jamaica we are exposed to it, meaning it's all around, but that does not mean the majority have tried it, rolled it, or smoked it...

using the herb for other purposes is not what they are talking about here...their intention is to catch bolt into somerthing that they can big up their chest and feel better about themselves...
true that it was governemnts responsible for the stigmatizing of the herbs, but it still does not change the fact that bolt said something stupid and had to tek back him chat

remedies and smoking/rolling is two different things;
they don't give a damn about remedies, they just wanted to catch bolt in something &amp; he obliged them...
and then fed into their fantasies by portraying j-a as a place where the majority smoke ganja and rolled a spliff by time dem a likkle yute;
i'm still amazed by the amount of people i come across who think all jamaicans smoke ganja;

if bolts words were true then we can't get mad when the sun writes about jamaica as being a 'druggie paradise', as they consider ganja a drug

[Seveen]

Re: smokee bolt roll a likkle

ganja is everywhere - can't remember visiting anyplace that didn't have it - different names - same plant

i even have a picture of a veiled woman in morocco rolling

not sure why Bolt fed into this perception of jamaica or talked about any &quot;drugs&quot; with the eyes of the world upon him

i didn't see any ganja spliffs in that commercial...the world knows some rasta recognize the herb as a holy sacramment;
if jamaica gov't wanted to promote the herb so bad they would legalize it and stop arresting people over it &amp; burning herb fields;

i was a 5 and 6 year old in the hills of j-a around rases smoking the biggest chalices you ever seen...did not make me smoke it;

as far as i know this is the quote blakkgiant put up:

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">
&quot;<span style="font-weight: bold">In Jamaica, you learn as a child how to roll a joint. Everyone here has tried it.</span> I did too -- but I was real young then,&quot; Bolt said. &quot;My family and my friends don't smoke and I don't hang out any longer with people who smoke.&quot;</div></div>

again i disagree

Re: smokee bolt roll a likkle

so then you agree with bolt's quote, yes or no:


<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">
&quot;<span style="font-weight: bold">In Jamaica, you learn as a child how to roll a joint. Everyone here has tried it.</span> &quot;</div></div>

it's like saying everyone in america smokes cigarettes or has tried coke
