So because he is fast on a bike, he can go THRU life breaking the law all he wants and because I'm not fast on a bike I'm not allowed to call him out on it?

Maybe he has a medical card for it, since in California, it is legal on a state level as long as he has a medical card for it. I hope you haven't ever had kids either because you seem like the type that its only your way of thinking is proper. LMAO at your logic.
He can't argue with you clearly because he is drunk off legal alcohol and lobbied prescription drugs.
Sorry, dont do either.

No need to be a dick. You can ridicule anyone you want. It's just stupid if you do in this case. Like it's something we didn't all already know anyhow.

I think what UpTiTe is saying is that, Hansen especially...since he's a "specialist" at extreme riding and all, and is probably being thought of as cool to a bunch of coming up riders...perhaps ought to think a little more before he allows someone to photograph himself with a loaded bong that he's quite obviously been using. No matter what we think about the law...it is the law, and Hansen is (whether he likes it or not) a role model from some youngsters. It's not cool to encourage breaking the law, no matter what you do in private.

Even if he's not saying that...I'm saying that.

And, yeah...I've broken tons of laws, and smoked way more than my share.

Roczen slams a beer while doing a burnout on his race bike and the fans love it. Picture is posted with Hansen and a bong and the fans hate it. The dangers of alcohol are far greater and the perception is the opposite due to a law or maybe just pure ignorance.
Why do you keep trying to base your argument on the merits of whether it should be a law or not? Are you really not getting that that's not the basis of this topic?

I don't see the problem, he is based in cali, what do you expect? Many of the freestyle guys are very open about it. What about Michael Phelps? No one even bags on him anymore.

I get what you are saying and I don't disagree. Do you feel Roczen slamming a beer ON his bike is better or worse than the Hansen thing as far as role models go? I have no problem with either, but I would consider that much worse seeing as how Roczen is actually a huge role model. What makes the Hansen thing worse? Because it's illegal?

He was bagged on big time when it happened, though. Do you really think if a picture surfaced today of Phelps ripping last night it wouldn't explode into a huge story? It would be huge. Yes, people would bag on him immensely.

And once again, for the record, I'm not arguing about the merits of the law. That's a completely different subject. It's possible to agree or disagree with a law and still think it's not a good idea to break it (if that's the case).

It also wasn't decriminalized at that point. I was more so referring to his DUIs though, which I think most people would consider far worse in terms of decision making. If he starts posting pics of it on his IG of it I will start to question his seriousness when it comes to racing.

A lot of people actually use it as a performance enhancing drug. Not in the sense of it increasing reaction time but many people find they are able to relax and focus more, IE, get into the zone quicker. Personally I enjoy smoking before going to the gym, or a bike ride, for just such reason.

That said, like football they need to remove marijuana from the list of banned substances. Not only is it amazing in helping injury recover (which our sport is plagued by) but in preliminary testing there is evidence suggesting that by taking a CBD pill (that doesn't contain THC so you don't get "high") an hour or two before participating in a sporting event it could drastically reduce brain damage should one incur a concussion.

That said – if Josh wants to drink a beer after a hard day at the track I take zero issue with him smoking a bowl either. It's a great way to relax and far better for your body than drinking.
Lol do you have a source for your claim about cbds reducing brain damage from a concussion? How did they test that? Hit people in the head with a bat? That might be the most ridiculous thing Ive ever heard. And weed (when smoked) contains 33 carcinogens and is not safer than booze

Actually motocross is the legal gateway drug. Once you feel your brain release all those gnarly chemicals we call adrenaline, dopamine, serotonin, and/or oxytocin.

Do you think a normal non riding person has a clue what the brain does lap after lap when it senses fear, injury, and death?

Anyone that "can't stay away" from MX is a freaking junky just like you and I.

Expression varies, however.

I don't give a rats ass how much pot Josh wants to smoke or not smoke, it has zero effect on my life. What cracks me up is the idiots who think its not ok to criticize a rider because he is fast.

Do you get it now? Or should I send you some money for reading comp classes?
Send beer, not money. But you you were critizing him for breaking the law. If he is prescribed it medically he isn't breaking a state law. That's all. I'm like you idc how fast they ride.

I'm saying that Marijuana has the perception that it does largely due to the fact that it is illegal. What don't you understand about that? It's 's not a big deal and it wouldn't be treated as one if not for the fact that it is illegal.

For people that actually care and are not just looking to argue:


Out of competition testing is different than testing while in competition per WADA/USADA guidelines. WADA/USADA has a time period before a "competition" they specify as out of competition in which specific substances will not cause you to be suspended. Each sport has a different out of competition time period.

It's the same reason why a guy like Jon Jones was able to test positive while out of competition for Cocaine and still compete under WADA/USADA

lots of things you shouldn't consume that grow "naturally" out of the ground. that's an asinine argument.

and no matter what you say, using any substance to alter or regulate your emotions isn't healthy behavior. Now, I certainly don't think smoking weed is terrible, and it's certainly better then all the other drugs out there, but don't kid yourself into thinking it has no consequences. Weed addicts can be some of the most neglectful parents,self centered friends, loser brothers/sisters, and shitty employees there are. It makes people content with doing nothing. That's not being a productive member of society, and a reason for others not to tolerate it. I don't care about legalities, but there are consequences for using even mild drugs like weed. ...and because of that, you ARE open to ridicule.

it's one thing when teenagers get high and drunk. most of them really are just "experimenting" or just wanting to be a part of the party and have fun and all those things. When a 30 year old is smoking weed, things are a little different. First of all no one starts smoking weed at 30, so they've been doing it for a while, and 9 out of 10 times are habitual. Every pot smoker (beer drinkers too) on the planet will tell you "oh I just like to relax in the evening" or whatever, but in reality, the drive and motivation behind a habitual pot smoker is affect regulation. Meaning, they are purposely altering their mood (emotional state) because they are uncomfortable with them. They are either anxious, or bored, or sad, or a hundred other things.

Now, thats ok to use drugs for emotional regulation, if deemed necessary, but it usually isn't, and there are better drugs out there than weed for most purposes anyway. My point is, weed addiction can make you emotionally complacent, and that prevents you from progressing as a human being, and bettering you personal and social life. The reason we have uncomfortable feelings like boredom and sadness are to motivate you to make changes, to improve your situation, so those feelings go away. Sedating yourself only perpetuates those feelings and the cycle of loathing sobriety.
