Legalized Marijuana?

Marijuana, the gateway drug that has welcomed so many unsuspecting souls into a drug induced hell, is once again up for vote on whether or not it should be legalized. It has gone up for vote in many cities and many states, but as of yet not on a national level. Sadly some cities, and yes, even some states have allowed this drug to be legalized. Who is voting this stuff in?

It cannot be a bunch of degenerate slackers, who are more preoccupied with playing hacky sack and eating mayonnaise than voting. So I suspect it is only the liberal Left that is seeking to undermine our countries ethics and values. What is next for our country? Perhaps we can legalize bestiality in public places?

Pot has the following side effects: trouble remembering things, heart palpitations. sleepiness, anxiety, bad decisions, obesity, paranoia (feeling that people are “out to get you”), altered time perception, and that is just the tip of the iceberg.

Marijuana also has been shown to be a key factor in why teens choose to be gay. Toking homosexuals are 9 times more likely to contract the HIV virus than non-"reefer" smoking heterosexuals. It also tends to lead to smoking cigarettes, which can cause lung cancer. Studies show that when rats exposed to radiation were given "dank", they STILL got cancer and died shortly after. So that blows away the myth that pot has any medicinal value for cancer sufferers. Nine out of ten subjects that smoked "grass" on a regular basis (approximately one “joint” a month), became impotent and developed Erectile Dysfunction.

One side effect of marijuana use that I do like is jail time for all who use it. And that is why we must continue to strike down any attempt by the liberal left to push their drugs and hippy agenda upon us, by continually voting NO to any idea of allowing this substance to be made available to our children. It is an illegal drug that destroys young people’s minds, their relationships with friends and family, and in some cases has led to suicide of first time users.

We must stand strong as a nation to protect our most valuable asset, our children. Vote to keep illegal drugs illegal.

I used to think that Marijuana should be legalized, then I went to Amsterdam and saw first hand the effects that this drug would have if legalized. Just say Fuck NO to pot.

I don't know about marijuana being a cause of homosexuality, I have never heard that one before, but I have read that Marijuana Users are 600 times more likely to become paranoid schizophrenics than non marijuana users. From my own experience with marijuana users, they seem more likely to believe bizarre conspiracy theories than non users, but that is not a scientific observation.

I believe that everyone should have the right to choose what they want to do with their lives, even if they choose to live a worthless life. So I am conflicted about marijuana laws. I want people to choose not to use drugs, but I do not want the government interfering with the private lives of individuals.

I believe that prisons are horrible places that do nothing to reform misguided people, and they should be reserved for real criminals with real victims, not drug law offenders. How much money does it cost to lock these people up? Not only in the expense of keeping them locked up but also in the loss of productivity that that person created? Who knows?

AS I said, I'm conflicted about marijuana laws.

Who gives a fuck if its legalized. I smoke it regardless of being legal or illegal. Unless youre an ignorant asshole who does it out in the open and is asking to be caught then who gives a fuck.
And as for the keeping our children safe from damn-dirty hippies, liberals, and the devil weed, i say bah to that. Conservatives have a different poison for children: catholicism and alcohol. Catholics are notoriously intolerent toward other races and religions. I say creating hate is far worse than a person who promotes equality, tolerance, and promote peace. And as for alcohol, catholics are also notoriously alcoholics and i would bet money that each one has a beer, a bottle of wine, or liquor that the kiddies can get to right now. I would much rather have a drug that makes you angry, highly irrational, uncoordinated, and violent made illegal than weed.

For me, smoking pot is like going snowboarding or playing my guitar. It's something that is fun to do, that makes me happy. Alot of my friends have the same view. I smoke once or twice a month. It has not changed my social life, it hasn't changed my grades, they actually went higher this past year but I'm not saying it was because of the pot. I see it as a less dangerous drug then alcohol, including for my own body and for the people arround me.

There are plenty of stupid myths about weed, the fact is, the drug itself isn't dangerous, its just stupid people that aren't mature enough to do it responsably and end up ruining it for the rest of it.

Where the bloody hell are you getting your information from? I can tell you from the numerous research material and studies that have been carried out by the World Health Organisation that are widely available on the internet (if you care to do your research properly) that not one of the things you have listed is true. Gateway Drug? Marijuana is the most widely available drug in the world. So of course people that now smoke crack and shoot up heroin have used marijuana in the past. But that didnt lead them there. What do you think 100% of these people tried before marijuana and the harder drugs? Alcohol and Tobacco. The two biggest killers in the world and the two things that should be criminal. I have smoked marijuana for over 10 years now. At least 30 grams a week for the past ten years. I must be dumb and going insane by now yeah? No. I have just recently completed a Diploma of Engineering at Uni. And guess what? I have never ever used any other drug other than marijuana. Why? Because every other drug other than marijuana is either made in a laboratory or in a backyard shed. And it is not safe. It has been proven that you need to smoke/induce kilograms and kilograms of THC to even come close to death. In fact there are more people in the World that regularly use heroin and ecstasy that have never touched marijuana or have only tried it once. Why? Because different people have different reactions to different drugs. If you have an adverse reaction, STOP TAKING THE DRUG. Also at least half of the people I know that smoke marijuana, dont smoke tobacco. Myself I smoke tobacco, but I started smoking tobacco about 5 years before I tried marijuana and I dont mix the two together when I smoke marijuana. Hang on, that must mean tobacco is a gateway drug yeah? The government can tax tobacco, thats why they still sell it.

And you like to see hundreds of millions of dollars of taxpayers money being spent on looking for people that enjoy a joint in their own leisure time in their own home not hurting anyone? Get real. Stop the real problem which is Alcohol and the hard drugs. Marijuana does not make you want to go out and commit crime and it sure doesnt give you an urge to hurt others. That is reserved for the uppers such as amphetamines and heroin etc.

Nearly all the things that you have listed is typical of someone who has grown up in a society that is misinformed. Slackass playing hackeysack? Myself, I earn over $100,000 a year being a slackass then.

Until you have researched the good and bad of Marijuana, both medically and socially, do not discredit and slander one of the worlds most abundant and most benificial herb. Because that is all it is. A herb.

God made Marijuana. Man made everything else. Who do you trust?

And your side effects that you list? I have never once experienced one of these side effects and if somebody does then you would suggest to them as a GP would that they have a higher sensitivity to the drug and should stay away from it. Personal choice. In fact the side effects that you have listed here (apart from maybe obesity which America seems to have a HUGE problem with anyway) are the common side effects for nearly every medication that is prescribed from your GP. In fact, most of our prescription drugs are made up of highly addictive and dangerous chemicals such as Morphine, Cocaine, Pethadine, Methadone, Dexamphetamine etc. But thats considered OK.

Last year worldwide over a million people had to be hospitalised for adverse reactions to medically prescribed drugs that are supposed to help. About 20,000 people died. From medication that was supposed to save their life. Look at recent events. 6 people are on the brink of death from a new trial of PRESCRIPTION Medicine.

I better not shower with my 6 year old son anymore then either. I might make him gay. All you kiddies out their that hold your buddies hand while you are walking in line with your class? Better pick a girl because you dont want to turn gay. With the increasing number of television shows that make us watch two men kissing, I would say that pre-disposes children more to becoming gay. Bloody hell even our music videos show homosexual activity. And are you referring to girls and boys? What a stupid remark from a definately uneducated and misinformed person. I have numerous gay friends both male and female. Some have tried marijuana, some havent. But they all agree one one thing. They were gay before they even knew what marijuana was. You just sound homophobic to me buddy.

hahajohnnyb. You make a valid point that everyone should have the right to choose what they want to do, but smoking marijuana does not make your life worthless. The governments around the world interfere everyday with peoples individual lives. Bush's new law gives him and others even more power again to do so. Saddam was a dictator? We need to look closer to home. And I also have been to Amsterdam and have seen the massive effect that it has had on the local economy. But I didnt see any bad effects. (The only bad effect I saw was people who abuse drugs, who should not be taking drugs if they have a pre-disposition to addiction anyway.)
I saw more local jobs (the need for more growrooms and cafes), more revenue for the government (from taxation), increased tourism (from people coming into Amsterdam to experience this in a legal environment), increased takings in local coffeshops (due to increased customers) all of which have lead to a better quality of life for people who live in the area. And you have taken the major criminal element away from the criminals. With marijuana freely available from cafes, nobody has to deal with the criminal element of society and the criminals/drug dealers have very little source of revenue left.
In fact I talked to one of the local policeman in Amsterdam when I was there and not once in his 20 year career had he attended a coffeshop or cafe for unruly behaviour. Those callouts are all reserved for places that had one thing in common. Alcohol.

Hmmm, all this from a 10 year "chronic" smoker of the chronic. My diminished brain capacity and bad decisions have led me so far down the wrong track I must be a burden on society and I should be arrested and put in jail for smoking Marijuana. Wake up EARTH. The discussions that take place on the ill effects of marijuana step way outside the normal limits for discussion when talking about the benifits of a drug. There is more good to be done than harm. If the only things that people can say to a marijuana smoker is that they might (over a large period of use and time) have a diminished IQ and are pre-disposed to turning gay; I dont think that will deter people. My god if we were to list the bad effects of our prescription drugs, I would be well over the 3000 word limit allotted in this forum.

I have a brother who was diagnosed with the so called affliction ADD. Apparantly a chemical inbalance in the brain. Our brains must produce dexamphetamine as a by-product then because thats what they prescribe to the millions of people that are not anything at all except different to what everyone wants you to be. ADD, ADHD = Total Bullshit. Another reason for the pharmaceutical companies to keep getting richer and to overshadow and quash people from showing the real benefits to one of natures most benificial herb.

My brother no longer takes his medication. He now smokes marijuana ocassionaly. He is at a healthy weight now (not looking like a crack addict which in essence is what we are turning our kids into), has a stable girlfriend, stable employment and is able to interact with people around him at a greater capacity than he was ever able before. All from no longer taking his prescription speed.

Please do not get me wrong, anyone who is pre-disposed to anything whether it be addiction, schizophrenia, psychotic episodes etc should stay away from any type of drug that gives them an adverse reaction or enhances their already exposed disability. But for god sakes people, we are living in an age of so called traditional medicine where people are increasingly leaning towards alternative and ancient remedies. What used to be one of the most widely prescribed drugs back in the "old days". Take a guess. From everything from nausea to headaches to use as an aphrodesiac marijuana was prescribed. Americas first President made it illegal for any farmer NOT to grow marijuana. Not only for its hemp uses but its medicinal uses. Your founding father.

Before you push one of the worlds most benificial and most widespreadly used drug (both medically and socially), give it a try. For something that you can grow in the comfort of your own home, it saves my brother over $1000 a year in prescription drugs as is the same for many others. Dont let the pharmaceutical companies take our money and dont let our governments rule our lives. This is a new generation of highly informed young people. The oldies wanna watch what they say cause they are relying on us to keep their economy strong and to give them a prosperous retirement life. Keep sticking our bright young kids in jail (and even some of the brighter oldies),
your future is starting to look very bleak. If you do not listen to the new generation of scientists and researchers that do these studies and are increasingly putting forth opposing information to what we have grown up to take as gospel, why are we going to listen to you when we are the ones in government and you rely on handouts from us to stay alive.

You crazy fucked up conservatives should check your imbecile definition of "drug".
You can get addicted to almost anything, so everything is a drug.
Just because our fuckin governments tell us what's illegal and what's not, doesn't make these things more or less dangerous.
I'm sure somebody already mentioned alcohol and nicotine, very bad and unhealthy, but leagal... I wonder why? (maybe some drugs must be allowed to bring requiered tax money into your country's cash box)

There are so many people addicted to TV, seriously guys: Whom of you can imagine a day, a week or a month completely without TV?

95% OF STUFF ON TV MAKES YOU DUMB, BUT IT'S NOT ILLEGAL BECAUSE YOUR GOVERNMENT NEEDS DUMB PEOPLE TO STAY ALIVE!!!

Google the negative health side effects of pot, or more importantly the social problems it creates in a society that tolerates it. Read about the children of parents who smoke pot. Yes, they are going to go places. Like McDonalds, and jail. I am sure all you pot heads will come together and speak of the awesome tales of when your parents were getting high instead of enrolling you in piano lessons, or taking you swimming. Ohhh sweet memories. And all articles are biased if someone original writes them. Would you rather me cut and paste facts in simple sentence structure outlining the negative effects of marijuana use on a persons health and society as a whole, and expect anyone to comprehend what the point of the article is? Do not doubt that I believe what I write, spyker. Also under news you may want to check the article, "F*CK Religion".

considering marijuana only became illegal back in 1930, does that mean all early americans before that time had no morals or values?

So i guess it's better we keep marijuana illegal so that foreign drug trafficers can take money out of our economy without being taxed. That's a much better idea.

And protecting children? What planet are you from? Drugs are illegal now as it is and they get into the hands of children easier than beer. Booze is legal, that doesn't stop high school kegger parties now does it? So, explain to me how this war on marijuana has done any good for society? I'd really like to see the actual positive impact it has played in american society for the last 70 years. What change did it bring about that you are saying we need to protect?

THE REAL REASON CANNABIS HAS BEEN OUTLAWED HAS NOTHING
TO DO WITH ITS EFFECTS ON THE MIND AND BODY.


MARIJUANA is NOT DANGEROUS. Pot is NOT harmful to the human body or mind. Marijuana does NOT pose a threat to the general public. Marijuana is very much a danger to the oil companies, alcohol, tobacco industries and a large number of chemical corporations. Various big businesses, with plenty of dollars and influence, have suppressed the truth from the people.

The truth is if marijuana was utilized for its vast array of commercial products, it would create an industrial atomic bomb! Entrepreneurs have not been educated on the product potential of pot. The super rich have conspired to spread misinformation about an extremely versatile plant that, if used properly, would ruin their companies.



Where did the word 'marijuana' come from? In the mid 1930s, the M-word was created to tarnish the good image and phenomenal history of the hemp plant...as you will read. The facts cited here, with references, are generally verifiable in the Encyclopedia Britannica which was printed on hemp paper for 150 years:



* All schoolbooks were made from hemp or flax paper until the 1880s; Hemp Paper Reconsidered, Jack Frazier, 1974.



* It was LEGAL TO PAY TAXES WITH HEMP in America from 1631 until the early 1800s; LA Times, Aug. 12, 1981.



* REFUSING TO GROW HEMP in America during the 17th and 18th Centuries WAS AGAINST THE LAW! You could be jailed in Virginia for refusing to grow hemp from 1763 to 1769; Hemp in Colonial Virginia, G. M. Herdon.

* George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and other founding fathers GREW HEMP; Washington and Jefferson Diaries. Jefferson smuggled hemp seeds from China to France then to America.



* Benjamin Franklin owned one of the first paper mills in America and it processed hemp. Also, the War of 1812 was fought over hemp. Napoleon wanted to cut off Moscow's export to England; Emperor Wears No Clothes, Jack Herer.



* For thousands of years, 90f all ships' sails and rope were made from hemp. The word 'canvas' is Dutch for cannabis; Webster's New World Dictionary.



* 80f all textiles, fabrics, clothes, linen, drapes, bed sheets, etc. were made from hemp until the 1820s with the introduction of the cotton gin.



* The first Bibles, maps, charts, Betsy Ross's flag, the first drafts of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were made from hemp; U.S. Government Archives.



* The first crop grown in many states was hemp. 1850 was a peak year for Kentucky producing 40, 000 tons. Hemp was the largest cash crop until the 20th Century; State Archives.



* Oldest known records of hemp farming go back 5000 years in China, although hemp industrialization probably goes back to ancient Egypt.



* Rembrants, Gainsboroughs, Van Goghs as well as most early canvas paintings were principally painted on hemp linen.



* In 1916, the U.S. Government predicted that by the 1940s all paper would come from hemp and that no more trees need to be cut down. Government studies report that 1 acre of hemp equals 4.1 acres of trees. Plans were in the works to implement such programs; Department of Agriculture



* Quality paints and varnishes were made from hemp seed oil until 1937. 58, 000 tons of hemp seeds were used in America for paint products in 1935; Sherman Williams Paint Co. testimony before Congress against the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act.



* Henry Ford's first Model-T was built to run on hemp gasoline and the CAR ITSELF WAS CONTRUCTED FROM HEMP! On his large estate, Ford was photographed among his hemp fields. The car, 'grown from the soil, ' had hemp plastic panels whose impact strength was 10 times stronger than steel; Popular Mechanics, 1941.

* Hemp called 'Billion Dollar Crop.' It was the first time a cash crop had a business potential to exceed a billion dollars; Popular Mechanics, Feb., 1938.



* Mechanical Engineering Magazine (Feb. 1938) published an article entitled 'The Most Profitable and Desirable Crop that Can be Grown.' It stated that if hemp was cultivated using 20th Century technology, it would be the single largest agricultural crop in the U.S. and the rest of the world.



The following information comes directly from the United States Department of Agriculture's 1942 14-minute film encouraging and instructing 'patriotic American farmers' to grow 350, 000 acres of hemp each year for the war effort:



'...(When) Grecian temples were new, hemp was already old in the service of mankind. For thousands of years, even then, this plant had been grown for cordage and cloth in China and elsewhere in the East. For centuries prior to about 1850, all the ships that sailed the western seas were rigged with hempen rope and sails. For the sailor, no less than the hangman, hemp was indispensable...



...Now with Philippine and East Indian sources of hemp in the hands of the Japanese...American hemp must meet the needs of our Army and Navy as well as of our industries...



...the Navy's rapidly dwindling reserves. When that is gone, American hemp will go on duty again; hemp for mooring ships; hemp for tow lines; hemp for tackle and gear; hemp for countless naval uses both on ship and shore. Just as in the days when Old Ironsides sailed the seas victorious with her hempen shrouds and hempen sails. Hemp for victory!'



Certified proof from the Library of Congress; found by the research of Jack Herer, refuting claims of other government agencies that the 1942 USDA film 'Hemp for Victory' did not exist.



Hemp cultivation and production do not harm the environment. The USDA Bulletin ..404 concluded that hemp produces 4 times as much pulp with at least 4 to 7 times less pollution. From Popular Mechanics, Feb. 1938:



'It has a short growing season...It can be grown in any state...The long roots penetrate and break the soil to leave it in perfect condition for the next year's crop. The dense shock of leaves, 8 to 12 feet above the ground, chokes out weeds.

...hemp, this new crop can add immeasurably to American agriculture and industry.'



In the 1930s, innovations in farm machinery would have caused an industrial revolution when applied to hemp. This single resource could have created millions of new jobs generating thousands of quality products. Hemp, if not made illegal, would have brought America out of the Great Depression.

William Randolph Hearst (Citizen Kane) and the Hearst Paper Manufacturing Division of Kimberly Clark owned vast acreage of timberlands. The Hearst Company supplied most paper products. Patty Hearst's grandfather, a destroyer of nature for his own personal profit, stood to lose billions because of hemp.



In 1937, Dupont patented the processes to make plastics from oil and coal. Dupont's Annual Report urged stockholders to invest in its new petrochemical division. Synthetics such as plastics, cellophane, celluloid, methanol, nylon, rayon, Dacron, etc., could now be made from oil. Natural hemp industrialization would have ruined over 80f Dupont's business.





THE CONSPIRACY



Andrew Mellon became Hoover's Secretary of the Treasury and Dupont's primary investor. He appointed his future nephew-in-law, Harry J. Anslinger, to head the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.



Secret meetings were held by these financial tycoons. Hemp was declared dangerous and a threat to their billion dollar enterprises. For their dynasties to remain intact, hemp had to go. These men took an obscure Mexican slang word: 'marihuana' and pushed it into the consciousness of America.



MEDIA MANIPULATION



A media blitz of 'yellow journalism' raged in the late 1920s and 1930s. Hearst's newspapers ran stories emphasizing the horrors of marihuana. The menace of marihuana made headlines. Readers learned that it was responsible for everything from car accidents to loose morality.



Films like 'Reefer Madness' (1936), 'Marihuana: Assassin of Youth' (1935) and 'Marihuana: The Devil's Weed' (1936) were propaganda designed by these industrialists to create an enemy. Their purpose was to gain public support so that anti-marihuana laws could be passed.



Examine the following quotes from 'The Burning Question' aka REEFER MADNESS:



a violent narcotic.



acts of shocking violence.



incurable insanity.



soul-destroying effects.



under the influence of the drug he killed his entire family with an ax.



more vicious, more deadly even than these soul-destroying drugs (heroin, cocaine) is the menace of marihuana!



Reefer Madness did not end with the usual 'the end.' The film concluded with these words plastered on the screen: TELL YOUR CHILDREN.

In the 1930s, people were very naive; even to the point of ignorance. The masses were like sheep waiting to be led by the few in power. They did not challenge authority. If the news was in print or on the radio, they believed it had to be true. They told their children and their children grew up to be the parents of the baby-boomers.



On April 14, 1937, the Prohibitive Marihuana Tax Law or the bill that outlawed hemp was directly brought to the House Ways and Means Committee. This committee is the only one that can introduce a bill to the House floor without it being debated by other committees. The Chairman of the Ways and Means, Robert Doughton, was a Dupont supporter. He insured that the bill would pass Congress.



Dr. James Woodward, a physician and attorney, testified too late on behalf of the American Medical Association. He told the committee that the reason the AMA had not denounced the Marihuana Tax Law sooner was that the Association had just discovered that marihuana was hemp.



Few people, at the time, realized that the deadly menace they had been reading about on Hearst's front pages was in fact passive hemp. The AMA understood cannabis to be a MEDICINE found in numerous healing products sold over the last hundred years.



In September of 1937, hemp became illegal. The most useful crop known became a drug and our planet has been suffering ever since.



Congress banned hemp because it was said to be the most violence-causing drug known. Anslinger, head of the Drug Commission for 31 years, promoted the idea that marihuana made users act extremely violent. In the 1950s, under the Communist threat of McCarthyism, Anslinger now said the exact opposite. Marijuana will pacify you so much that soldiers would not want to fight.



Today, our planet is in desperate trouble. Earth is suffocating as large tracts of rain forests disappear. Pollution, poisons and chemicals are killing people. These great problems could be reversed if we industrialized hemp. Natural biomass could provide all of the planet's energy needs that are currently supplied by fossil fuels. We have consumed 80f our oil and gas reserves. We need a renewable resource. Hemp could be the solution to soaring gas prices.

THE WONDER PLANT



Hemp has a higher quality fiber than wood fiber. Far fewer caustic chemicals are required to make paper from hemp than from trees. Hemp paper does not turn yellow and is very durable. The plant grows quickly to maturity in a season where trees take a lifetime.



ALL PLASTIC PRODUCTS SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP SEED OIL. Hempen plastics are biodegradable! Over time, they would break down and not harm the environment. Oil-based plastics, the ones we are very familiar with, help ruin nature; they do not break down and will do great harm in the future. The process to produce the vast array of natural (hempen) plastics will not ruin the rivers as Dupont and other petrochemical companies have done. Ecology does not fit in with the plans of the Oil Industry and the political machine. Hemp products are safe and natural.



MEDICINES SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP. We should go back to the days when the AMA supported cannabis cures. 'Medical Marijuana' is given out legally to only a handful of people while the rest of us are forced into a system that relies on chemicals. Pot is only healthy for the human body.



WORLD HUNGER COULD END. A large variety of food products can be generated from hemp. The seeds contain one of the highest sources of protein in nature. ALSO: They have two essential fatty acids that clean your body of cholesterol. These essential fatty acids are not found anywhere else in nature! Consuming pot seeds is the best thing you could do for your body. Eat uncooked hemp seeds.



CLOTHES SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP. Hemp clothing is extremely strong and durable over time. You could hand clothing, made from pot, down to your grandchildren. Today, there are American companies that make hemp clothing; usually 50emp. Hemp fabrics should be everywhere. Instead, they are almost underground. Superior hemp products are not allowed to advertise on fascist television. Kentucky, once the top hemp producing state, made it ILLEGAL TO WEAR hemp clothing! Can you imagine being thrown into jail for wearing quality jeans?

The world is crazy...but that does not mean you have to join the insanity. Get together. Spread the news. Tell people, and that includes your children, the truth. Use hemp products. Eliminate the word 'marijuana.' Realize the history that created it. Make it politically incorrect to say or print the M-word. Fight against the propaganda (designed to favor the agenda of the super rich) and the bullshit. Hemp must be utilized in the future. We need a clean energy source to save our planet. INDUSTRIALIZE HEMP!



The liquor, tobacco and oil companies fund more than a million dollars a day to Partnership for a Drug-Free America and other similar agencies. We have all seen their commercials. Now, their motto is: 'It's more dangerous than we thought.' Lies from the powerful corporations, that began with Hearst, are still alive and well today.



The brainwashing continues. Now, the commercials say: If you buy a joint, you contribute to murders and gang wars. The latest anti-pot commercials say: If you buy a joint...you are promoting TERRORISM! The new enemy (terrorism) has paved the road to brainwash you any way THEY see fit.



There is only one enemy; the friendly people you pay your taxes to; the war-makers and nature destroyers. With your funding, they are killing the world right in front of your eyes. HALF A MILLION DEATHS EACH YEAR ARE CAUSED BY TOBACCO. HALF A MILLION DEATHS EACH YEAR ARE CAUSED BY ALCOHOL. NO ONE HAS EVER, EVER DIED FROM SMOKING POT!! In the entire history of the human race, not one death can be attributed to cannabis. Our society has outlawed grass but condones the use of the KILLERS: TOBACCO and ALCOHOL. Hemp should be declassified and placed in DRUG stores to relieve stress. Hardening and constriction of the arteries are bad; but hemp usage actually enlarges the arteries...which is a healthy condition. We have been so conditioned to think that: Smoking is harmful. That is NOT the case for passive pot.



Ingesting THC, hemp's active agent, has a positive effect; relieving asthma and glaucoma. A joint tends to alleviate the nausea caused by chemotherapy. You are able to eat on hemp. This is a healthy state of being.



{One personal note: During the pregnancy of my wife, she was having some difficulty gaining weight. We were in the hospital. A nurse called us to one side and said: 'Off the record, if you smoke pot...you'd get something called the munchies and you'll gain weight.' I swear that is a true story}.

The stereotype for a pothead is similar to a drunk, bubble-brain. Yet, the truth is one's creative abilities can be enhanced under its influence. The perception of time slightly slows and one can become more sensitive. You can more appreciate all arts; be closer to nature and generally FEEL more under the influence of cannabis. It is, in fact, the exact opposite state of mind and body as the drunken state. You can be more aware with pot.



The pot plant is an ALIEN plant. There is physical evidence that cannabis is not like any other plant on this planet. One could conclude that it was brought here for the benefit of humanity. Hemp is the ONLY plant where the males appear one way and the females appear very different, physically! No one ever speaks of males and females in regard to the plant kingdom because plants do not show their sexes; except for cannabis. To determine what sex a certain, normal, Earthly plant is: You have to look internally, at its DNA. A male blade of grass (physically) looks exactly like a female blade of grass. The hemp plant has an intense sexuallity. Growers know to kill the males before they fertilize the females. Yes, folks...the most potent pot comes from 'horny females.'



The reason this amazing, very sophisticated, ET plant from the future is illegal has nothing to do with how it physically affects us…..

"Pot has the following side effects: trouble remembering things, heart palpitations. sleepiness, anxiety, bad decisions, obesity, paranoia (feeling that people are “out to get you”), altered time perception, and that is just the tip of the iceberg."

That's complete bullshit. It increases your heart rate, true, but unless you already have heart problems it will not harm you. It does NOT make you sleepy unless you are already really tired, in any case it helps ALOT of people sleep better. Anxiety? Bad Decisions? Honestly, it is FAR less worse then alcohol, a high person will most likely laugh and have a good time while the drunk people can't even walk or even stand sometimes or become agressive and start fights. Obesity is probably your most retarded argument: Weed is probably less hazardous to anyone's health then a meal at Mc.Donalds...

"Google the negative health side effects of pot, or more importantly the social problems it creates in a society that tolerates it."

I have done this and the same things keep coming up. Memory loss, slowed perception of time etc. If these are the only bad side effects I am really not all that worried. Drinking more than 2 standard drinks a week has been proven to aid memory loss aswell. But alcohol is OK to drink around our children. Its OK to turn into stumbling bumbling messes in front of our young.
For christs sake lucias how many times have people witnessed parents giving their child just a little sip of their beer or alcoholic drink? And this is socially OK? Grow up. Most people have more than enough alcohol in their house to kill 20 kids. Not to mention the pharmacy that most people have behind their bathroom mirrors. How about you google the amount of children that have died from getting hold of prescription medicine. How about you google the amount of adults that died or had adverse reactions to prescription medicine.
If my children found my pot stash and ate it all (all 2-3 ounces of it), they would not only be absolutely fine, they would have the best nights sleep they ever had. Your negative effects do not outweigh the good effects. For every 1 negative effect their is about 20 positive effects.
And as for it turning you impotent; my 6 year old son who has A grades at school and is a year infront of the other children his age and also my 4 year old daughter who seems to be progressing even faster; how did I conceive these kids then? I smoke way way way more than one joint a week. The stork didnt bring them lucias. I conceived them and the whole time; including my partner; WE SMOKED POT.

And then people on death row use religion to try and tell society that they have changed and their sins have been repented. In their sick fantasies yes. In the mother, the brother, the sisiter who will never have another moment again with the loved ones that were taken from them? Certainly not. I have had a family member taken by another individual who is now free. No justice there. The person who murdered my family member? Not a pot smoker, not a drug taker. He didnt even drink alcohol. He was a christian.
Fuck you Lucias. You are a loser, you have no quantifiable input to any subject. Only the fallacies and myths that the pharmaceutical companies have drummed into our ears for 80 odd years now. Lets just keep getting hooked on prescription medication then that would be much better for you hey? And then use another prescription drug to ween them off the addiction that they have developed. Look at methadone. To try and get people off heroin. No. Methadone is just the pharmaceutical companies form of heroin. Why should the criminals get all the money when they can feed it to our society instead. You really have been brainwashed by the American government. Legalise it, tax it, use it for all the good uses industrially that it has. Someone mentioned the energy crisis, very good point. Suggest you all download a movie called END OF SUBURBIA.

How about all the mass suicides that all these religions and cults still take part in? They seem more mentally instable than the dudes that smokes pot. You know what?

Keep our jails for killers.

With a name like lucias, I would worry about people thinking I was gay too.

Wonder what your stance is on gay people? Its wrong to smoke a bong but its OK to fuck another guy up the place that is reserved for things coming out? The reason our society is like it is today is because of misinformed bias people like you who continue to push outdated, christian beliefs. The church burned people at the stake. Maybe we should burn them. Like was pointed out earlier in these comments, the first bible was made of hemp. Wonder how many people ripped out the pages to smoke them?

Amsterdam has no fights at coffeeshops or cafes, people are not running around in a psychotic state killing people. You can even by mushies which are considered a soft drug.

Explain how everyone getting together, smoking a joint, laughing and relating and reminiscing together; how is this antisocial? Drinking a bottle of booze by yourself at home then smashing up your house and your partner and your kids. Thats antisocial. Thats criminal.

Do an experiment and go to your local pub and count the number of people that are sitting by themselves slowly drinking away their money. Pot is free because it can be grown inside your home. Thats why its illegal. Because the government CANNOT and WILL NOT be ever be able to fully control the substance. Anything the government cant fully control, they prohibit.

No one cares whether pot is legalized or not, people will do it regardless. But spouting bullshit facts about pot is just wrong. Everyone has different reactions to different drugs. If we're just gonna ban something based on the results of a small percentage of people, then alchohol and tobacco should be banned too. They practically tell you, "You will die" by smoking tobacco, but its legal. Pots illegal, and it basically does jack shit. The people that end up retarded from pot were probably retarded to begin with.

And wtf is this "Toking homosexuals are 9 times more likely to contract the HIV virus than non-"reefer" smoking heterosexuals." What the fuck does that have to do with other people smoking pot. How about we pass around some condoms and STD books to teenage whores(both men and women) instead of a pamphlet on how bad marijuana is? If you go out and have orgies and get HIV or AIDS, don't blame the pot, blame your shitty parents and terrible common sense.

Don't listen to this article's garbage. They probably found 3 crackheads in an alley, tested them positive for marijuana, and made up a bunch of bullshit facts and data. If marijuana is so bad, how come we hear more shit about drunk drivers and cancer from tobacco than anything else, yet alcohol and tobacco are still legal. The world makes no sense.

2. Pot is not addictive physically..it is mentally you become dependant of marijuana in your daily life...you can quit whenever you want too (see me i've quit just to prove you can...and then i moved to china where i cant smoke period..i still consider myself a pothead however)
3. Pot is a prescribed treatment for cancer patients and arthritis patients (see my grandfather who never smoked till he couldn't open and close his hands...2 joints later..he felt much better lol..or my aunt who went through kemo and couldnt hold down any food unless she smoked..thus keeping her from dying since an imaciated person will easier succumb to the effects of cancer even with the kemo.)
If your a christian...guess what..Jesus smoked...(That is both a historical fact..and there is documented evidence..) Plus up until the Americans decided tobacco and pulp based paper was the better money maker..pot was legal...it was also used in religion to create that "awe inspired" belief in god..rather than a monotone recital...ie the cathoics used it..the muslims still do...the judaism still does...buddhism does...and hindu/sikh (apoligize for mispelling)... In Conclusion...Fuck America's propaganda concerning marijuana...ohhh and asfor pot making you gay...yaaahhh righhhttt...pot makes girls horney and guys last longer..sure..that makes you very very gay..if your lesbian...
