Maybe to remind themselves about the way they used to be. Who knows. I've really only ever seen people showin off their coins they got for bein in the program. And generally, i saw them while the holder was hittin a blunt or somethin.

yeah but i think your missing the point, its like anonymous means secretive, whens the last time you heard a secret society going around tellin everyone im in a secret society.
its stupid, why is it called narcotics anonymous if they tell everyone, i knwo i cant be the only one that sees this shit.

Ever talk to a beer lover?? Or a religious nutcase? It's the same thing... Bottom line is people enjoy their vices and get pissed when you rain on their parade with health concerns or legalities or logic.
Is NA a faith-based program like AA?

Id sport an NA t-shirt. Turbos are for cheaters.
Seriously though, why is weed classified as a narcotic? When I hear "narcotic" i think of heroin, or speed or something. Not weed. Pot and those are 2 WAY different things. The word "narcotic" just makes weed sound bad..er.
Now they need to have a SA. Stoners anonymous. Get together, and tell funny stories of what you did when you were stoned... That'd sell some t-shirts.

stoners are never anonymous, they always have the same low slow laugh and ha ha nature about them, and the voice is all crackly, and i love beer but i dont give a damn when people talk about it and give me shit about it. i still think it doesnt make since.
if anything i think the best answer would be , i think they wear the shirts cause they are just proud to be doing something positive, and trying not to be on drugs. and want words of encouragement.

Maybe it was Narconon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narconon) - a branch of the 'Church' of $cientology.

Breathe it in and breathe it out
And pass it on, it's almost out
We're so creative, so much more
We're high above but on the floor
It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
The deeper you stick it in your vein
The deeper the thoughts, there's no more pain
I'm in heaven, I'm a god
I'm everywhere, I feel so hot
It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)
It's over now, I'm cold, alone
I'm just a person on my own
Nothing means a thing to me
(Nothing means a thing to me)
It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)
Free me, leave me
Watch me as I'm going down
Free me, see me
Look at me, I'm falling and I'm falling.
It is not a habit, it is cool I feel alive I feel...
It is not a habit, it is cool I feel alive
It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)
I'm not an addict...
I'm guessing that people running around in NA shirts are sporting them more to let people know that they've overcome their addiction, which, depending on your point of view, is a sign of pride.

they classify it as a narcotic because it IS a narcotic.

Eh, i was just saying the word narcotic has a certain negative stigma about it.
Or as the stoners would say "its got bad vibes man. Kills my buzz"
I've smoked my share of the murder weed, and I'd have to say drinking a 12 pack of budwieser is worse than smoking a dime bag of some mids. Alcohol is much more dangerous than marijuana IMO.

I could go on and on about this but it would be pointless. Im going to respect your opinion, and I agree that marijuana is bad... It is a DRUG after all. But my opinion is that if it is purely a recreational drug, and your responsible with it, just like alcohol, you should be good.
So now im done talking about this. Good day sir! lol

well what is a recreational drug, what if peopel do heroin on the weekends at home on there own is it still okay? i mean do you think they will always only do it than? im sure the addiction will lead to sometimes on tuesdays, and on fridays, and than pretty soon its every day that ends in y, and your driving next to someone all hopped up on drugs, and that is not cool.

Alcohol is a recreational drug. And a shit ton more people have died, or fucked up their lives, due to alcohol in some way than marijuana. Heroin and marijuana are 2 completely different things, so dont try to associate those two. You need to do some research first before you compare those two drugs. I've smoked pot before, and I dont get a sudden urge to do so. In fact I havent smoked in about 3 months. Im not addicted to pot, and the vast majority of people who smoke or who have smoked pot aren't addicted.
Now try to say that about heroin users.
A recreational drug is one used for recreation. That answered your original question. Anything taken to excess can be dangerous. Thats when it stops being recreational and starts being an addiction.

okay drugs are drugs, thats the way i look at it, and i havent smoked weed in more than 7 years, and i dont drink to change my mind set, i actually enjoy what i drink and dont get urges to do so.
and besides, i dont get why someone would be so defensive over pot, which is a drug.
drugs are drugs i can compare them all i want. they are all bad for you. and whichever ones that you think are worse than others are your opinion.
my car is my only vice, im not an alcholic or a pothead.

Drugs are drugs, eh?
You need to take some phyisology, chemistry, and biology classes.
There are a myriad of substances in this galaxy, and even those that are chemically related often have drastically different properties and effects.
The physical effects of marijuana are vastly different from those of heroin which are different from cocaine which are different from acid which are different from ecstasy.
That having been said, I know many people who've completely fucked their lives over with these substances...and I know many people who have used them, ejoyed them, and their lives didn't fall apart.
Ultimately, every individual is different and responsible for their own lives and the choices they make.
The way I look at it, you make the bed you sleep in. If you know you have a destructive habit, quit. Don't make excuses. Accept responsibility for your actions.
At the same time I don't think substances should be criminalized simply because they have the ability to ruin someone's life. That's just a scapegoat to deflect blame on someone or something else.
But whatever, this thread is derailing now.

i was gettin the feelign to defend myself, cause i dont thin kyou get what i ment b y drugs are drugs( i ment that people always defend pot with " its not a REAL drug and shit like that)
but i couldnt agree with you more on the whole.
