Topic: Marijuana: Beneficial? | |
---|---|
So a government created legislation, using illegal immigrants, as a cover?
Imagine that... Sounds familiar, but with a different agenda. |

interesting information Turtle i never knew that.
My opinion on Weed: I believe abything natural should not be prohibitied to use, Smokes are used and have over 1000 chemicals that cause no benefit to anyone and probabaly 99% of people wish they could stop, this is not the case with Weed. I also believe the use wouldnt not rise. but remain stagnant. As far as crime, i believe it will drop as with prohibition there were "Alcohol" dealers which we dont have any more today. The Drug dealers would not be in existance as they are today. Overall i think Leagalizing it would be a good idea. Granted i dont use the drug Joshua |

if you all would read the book called
"the emperor wears no clothes " by Jack Herer like i said it is all online... it is more powerful and based on truth than people's fluctuating opinions www.jackherer.com your eyes would open... i personally think it had way more to do with william randolf hearst and john dow, and their personal investments, than it had to do with illegal immigrants |

I dont burn anymore, but I can tell ya that Alcohol is 100 times worse than weed ever dreamt of being.
I used to get so baked and then go Haulin ass in the mountins. Not once have I ever wrecked when stoned. I have plenty of times when I wasnt. I'm still breathin, it helped me to concentrate better. I quit because Its illegal, and not worth losing my freedom over. |

i know....i agree.
but our God Given rights are being infringed upon and taken away and that is not what our freedom was or is being fought for it is not worth losing our freedom over, but, if we just allow them to have their way, and we don't protect our rights, then they have succeeded in removing all of our freedom |

this is just my opinion....
I come from a very large family,and I have seen first hand what alcohol,pot,and other street drugs have done to some of my family members. 1.)3 deaths due to alcohol related dieseases & 2 deaths due to car accidents(yes they were stoned) 2.)2 that have spent more time in jail then out of jail due to smoking and selling pot 3.)1 that has completely fried his brain and doesnt even know who he is(pot was his drug of choice but couldnt get high anymore and went to other drugs) 4.)1 that lost everything that he had due to his pot smoking(job,house,car,family,and almost his own life)hes now in a mental hospital. his pot smoking was all he cares for. If you are going to smoke do it in moderation....dont make it an everyday all day bake-off. Have nothing against anyone that smokes I just dont like it. |

Thats so true...But look at the government.
They could really care less about what you or me want. All they (politicians) are worried about, is how much their pensions, and salaries are. Pot will never be legal, then the government couldnt make money off of fineing the hell out of people like you or me that are caught with it. |

Never say never, they once said a minimum wage would never happen and more recently they said legalising assault rifles would never happen. Just have to vote for the right people and let your congressman know where you stand;^] |

thank you turtle poet
that is a good attitude... we older folks have got to stand firm in our convictions to give the new comers hope and strength & moral incentive to do what is necessary to put this world back on track |

I agree, as Ziggy Marley said, "My generation will make the change, this generation will make the change";^]

thank you LauraJ
AMEN...turtle poet MAY THE GOOD FORCE of GOD and of the LIGHT BE WITH YOU you know i remember when we were kids, my brother and i were talking about whether we wanted to have kids someday. he said he didn't cause he didn't want to bring kids into such a terrible world ... and i told him that i did want to have children and that maybe they would make a difference, and do you know what ? my kids are in their early thirties now... and they do make a difference i have two daughters and a son ... all of my children have come so far ... my youngest daughter has worked all the way up. she is an incredible presence as a general manager of an amazing raw & organic food restaurant chain in the San Francisco bay area She has helped people so much and continues to help people to give up their old unhealthy ways of eating and living and to open up to better ways of nutrition & healthy living and that is just one of the things she is involved with... another being the growing of organic flax and organic cotton and hemp for natural clothing do you know that they put formaldehyde and other nasty harmful chemicals in the bolts of cotton used to make clothing ? so many changes need to be made ... Lots of love and light to the younger people |

Getting on to medical benefits, I think there are many, but one specificaly where it helped me. It should be noted, that I quit pot years ago and now use serequel whenever this happens now, regardless the pot was just as effective if not more. I have a schizo effective disorder with a mild varient of aspergers (also called high functioning autism), and once in a while I have a "freak out", where I start getting overly anxious and become a danger to myself (suicidal thoughts). So when I still used I would smoke a little whenever that happened, and I tell you it made all the differance in the world. I'd sit back much more calm and able to think more clearly about what I'd be missing and who I'd hurt. Watching cartoons all night and eating up all the groceries is much better than the previous. Like I said, I now use serequel for the same thing and it works too, has more side effects but I've got too much to lose by breaking the marijuana laws;^]

it's too bad...many of the doctors
have traded the hypocratic oath for a hypocritic oath cause there are so many financial kickbacks in it for them from prescribing all of these powerful and highly addictive drugs... they don't want people smoking a mild joint but they would rather see people all strung out on morphine and oxycontin and they want to see everyone all loopy and vapid and like zombies they want everyone on powerful antidepressents so they can control us, stuff that has way worse side effects than weed... cause it is all about the money for them and their freebies from the pharmaceutical companies... also read the book "natural cures they don't want you to know about" by Kevin trudeau... it is not about getting people well, it is about getting people strung out on their so called legal drugs... they are the among the real 'pushers' in this world |

they are the among the real 'pushers' in this world That is sooooooooo true......my doctor wants to prescribe me all these pain meds for my back. for one I cant take them cause I cant function on them and two I have found that meditation and yoga has relieved more of the pain then my doctors so called meds. |
