Sorry for the double post
@HeadiesRush
I agree to an extent. It should be kept out of the hands of minors. Same as alcohol. Even if it is a mild drug that is not inherently addictive, studies have shown it can cause anxiety or hasten schizophrenia and irresponsible people can ruin their lives and the lives of people around them. Teenagers do not have the experience and maturity to handle marijuana responsibly. |

Hey Brandy, you know what is worse for a child's brain development than weed? A drating tumor.
Sometimes not using drugs is more cruel and harmful than using them. For example, if the only painkiller available is heroin (the worst possible drug you can put into your body), wouldn't you still give it to someone who is in deathly excruciating pain? |

@Keith2
Isn't it obvious? We can believe everything the government tell us about marijuana because the government is always right! From now on, we should all learn to blindly accept anything that our government tells us.
But in all seriousness, the only people that advocate marijuana prohibition are either uninformed or have simply chosen to disregard any or all of the facts about marijuana that quite literally smack prohibition in the face. |

I severely disagree with the woman at the end. To describe why she doesn't like marijuana she first uses "I believe.." and then "It is our opinion that.." So they base their discrimination on marijuana and it's users on a marijuana hate belief system.
Seriously? Marijuana keeps people from concentrating? Obviously the woman has NEVER tried it. Because you know, having never tried it, one can totally say without a doubt what the effects are. |

The substance abuse prevention specialist needs to know that it is 'especially' not 'expecially."
And his dad is a stoner. |

Marijuana should be legal, period. I NEVER touched until I was 35 years and was STAUNCHLY against it up til then. A friend finally convinced me to try it. It was great and IT IS NOT the evil drug people try to convince you it is. Incidentally, I don't drink, do ANY illegal drugs or smoke cigarettes. So gateway these nutz. |

@tincel1372
Freak yeah I get ticked on this subject. Best pain reliever on the planet. Better than analgesics such as acetaminophen. Better than Valium or Prozac. Freak even the material for clothing is better. Especially if you live in the tropics where mold grows rampant. Can use it for fuel also. It's better than using corn. Freaking Chemical industrialists got everybody conned.
We have pharmacuticals freely and abundant that we destroy because we call them weeds. Dandelions come to mind? Excellent for lowering diabetic blood sugars, but oh no we use 'RounUp" for that. The same that's implanted in GM foods. Yeah I'll have that dose of insecticide please for dinner. |

You mad handy?
Kidding aside, I feel your pain. It's amazing that a plant with such diverse properties is considered criminal for such bullsh*t. |

@Jammey
I don't get why people want to take the fun out of a medicine you can actually have fun taking. What is the logical argument for having Marijuana minus the intoxication element?
Because Americans are not allowed to have any enjoyment. We are to work and pay tribute to the rich and elitist politicians until we drop dead.
Did that explain it good enough for you? |
