Marijuanna is benificial to mankind

[LiberalAvenger]

There are just too many benefits to the human race for pot to be demonized.

Sooe the truth will set us free from the government propaganda about it.

It's appaling that pot is a schedule I , so called, "drug". It does help pay for the country club dues for the members of the DEA.

I absolutely agree. Marijuana should be legalized. Aside from the fact that it has medical applications, industrial hemp is a wonder crop that could positively benefit our nation as a viable, renewable source material for many products.

I was involved in the War on Drugs as a cop for almost a decade and a half and I can tell you without a doubt that it is an ineffective wasted of taxpayer dollars and an absolute travesty of justice that we have imprisoned people over possessing marijuana.

More about medical benefits of pot.

it should be treated like alcohol.

Alcohol is a toxin, pot is not.

Even if it were to be legalized, which I do not believe will happen any time in the near future, I will not use it nor will I allow it to be used around me or by those who wish to be involved in my life. I would not allow it in my home, in my car, anywhere that I have control over. It's just that simple.

I also have a limitation in my living will that I will not accept any THC-derived therapy or pain medication.

Oh, and YES, I feel the same way about alcohol and tobacco.

Good it will help keep the price down.

That's one way to look at it, I guess. It should definitely ensure my Christmas Card list never grows too large. ;-)

I like the odd tourist (most visit Amsterdam) in my local coffeeshop, first time they enter they're looking around like a kid who in Disney land.

I'm crying dude, hope you're happy now.

Sorry, but I don't have three or four hours to write out the entire list. The image in Djoop's prior post is a good starting point, though.

Sarcasm doesn't look good on you.

Alcohol is a toxin, pot is not.

they're both intoxicants. as i said, i think it should be treated like alcohol; basically, an adult could buy prepackaged or brew their own for personal use. what do you support?

Everything. Let natural selection be the enforcer.

Well, knock me down with a feather - Pot is the cure-all for all of humankind's ailments!

How amazing! We must get this wonder cure to everyone as quickly as possible.

I have been with cancer victims who said the same thing. One of the best medical uses for pot is for people who have no appetite. A couple of tokes and they get the screaming munchies.

Pot is not a toxin. Toxin means poison. Too much alcohol can kill you. This is not the case with pot and that's a fact. Show me evidence that anyone has overdosed on pot.

you're preaching to the choir. i support full legalization for adults.

THC is an intoxicant, meaning that it causes a state of intoxication. while there might be a fatal dose possible, i tend to doubt many if any have ever achieved it, unless they were injecting hashish oil.

That is probably true about hash oil.

I have not seen that around for thirty years.

Does your living will preclude opiates?

I know you well enough to understand your position.

I just don't know why you'd reject a pharmaceutical derivative, especially with the anti-cancer properties and its superiority for chronic pain management (which is NOT from thc but the OTHER cannabinoids, the ones that don't get you high)

Its so common in Cali now there paraphernalia specifically for it. Including big e-cigarette types.

 

[Tigger]

Does your living will preclude opiates?

It precludes all non-OTC pain medication unless under the direct supervision of medical personnel, and requires minimization of dosages outside of surgical instances.

If it's non-THC then it's fine. It's written to preclude and THC-derived therapy. Realize that my treatment for cancer is quick, brutal, and permanent. I'm not going through what my father endured for 2+ years.

You're extrapolating. Almost to the point of building a straw man. Nobody said it was a "wonder cure."
