i just don't believe in a war on flowers.

That's a good speculation.

It's impossible to overdose on marijuana. You would pass out before that could happen.

Study up on your Marijuana. Don't be some dumbass kid who just gets blazed for no reason. Study up, know your shit. It's studies and people like us who are going to change the way Marijuana is perceived. Find the good stuff. As my good friend Alex says "with caffiene, liquor and nicotine what could go wrong?" Legalize it!

HR 5842 and HR5843 are on the table now in the house. HR 5842 would allow medicinal users to use and get from dispensaries without reprocussion from federal agencies usurping state laws. HR5843 would allow citizen to carry 100 grams or less without threat of jail time from federal offense, states would mandate their own laws and consequences.

no i have fucking good shit.. im saying i will smoke it about one day a week but have like 8 joints over the course of the day...

not in a vaporizer

sounds like you have some super schwag weed.

Smoking anything is harmfull. That is not reason enough for making it illegal. Mariguana has a lot of good effects also.

Right on man. I smoke daily, and I have to say its a great way to unwind after work. Opposite to alcohol I also tend to be very much more careful when driving. Alcohol on the other hand makes you want to drive like a freaking idiot. Which is why I hate drunk drivers. If I get angry with something/someone I can just go toke one and my anger fades away.

My personal opinion. A god given plant made for our healing. I smoke it about once a week with an average of 8 Joints on that one occasion. You know what, its kept me from killing myself plenty of times.

well said

Alcohol is more of a gateway drug than cannabis.

Too much of anything is not a good thing. Finding balance is important. Eating fat stresses our whole body, but not eating fat makes us freeze to death in the winter. The important thing is to be able to find what works for you, and to know what "works" means.

Pot IS a gateway drug due to lies coming from those who wish for it to be illegal. Marijuana needs to be used responsibly, but is nowhere near the potential for doing harm to the most people as say cocaine, alcohol, etc. When it is presented as being equally harmful through D.A.R.E or by ignorant parents, kids try weed and find out it is ok and that they were lied to... "so maybe they were lying about cocaine" is the question the kid asks, with noone to trust to find the answer but themselves.

If you look at some of these marijuana cancer "studies", it's ridiculous. They take people who supposedly smoke 20 joints a day. Who smokes 20 joints a day? Even when I used to be the biggest pothead, I never even came close to smoking 20 joints a day. I've never met anyone in my life who smokes/ed that much. I don't smoke anything anymore, but I don't think people should be criminalized for using weed. The Government waste too much money trying to eradicate weed, when there is no need.

Cannabis is an anti-inflamitory, just like aspirin. This means that if you use aspirin to reduce the inflamation of arthritis, cannabis will do the same job without the negative side effects of ingesting a poison like aspirin. People with MS find immediate relief when they use cannabis. Not to mention the benefits to the lungs discussed in the video with Dr. Tashkin as he described cannabis as a vasodialator(sp?), or a vein opener. Tobacco does the opposite. Still need proof?

Hiphop made a good point about aspirin and the easy and legal access to this drug. Aspirin is legal and anyone can buy it in any quantity or strength. Chemically, aspirin is a poison. If enough is taken you will surely die. The amount needed to kill is little. Yet, aspirin is legal. More people are treated for aspirin overdose per year then any other drug. Cannabis is not legal. No one has ever needed treatment for an overdose of cannabis. No one ever has died because of cannabis use.

hiphop, you seem to be missing the point of the discussion. I agree with you about what we "should" be talking about and where the discussion of legalizing cannabis is concerned, I believe that the government should stay out of my business. The problem is with the Federal Government and they made a "political" decision to regulate cannabis. The feds could care less about your beliefs.

...wow after reading all the comments on this video i have to say you are so fucking convoluted it's funny to me

it has nothing to do with politics; just because the FDA defines it as a drug doesn't make it automatically illegal. Aspirin is a drug but it's no illegal. Weather you call it a drug or not is a moot point. The point should be what the effects are and if it is beneficial or not. whether you consider a 'drug' or not has nothing to do with anything

u only live once plus it doesnt really harm ur lungs to much u can last ur whole life smoking marijuana.. u cannot last ur whole life smoking crack cocain heroin cigarettes or alcahol... so think about that and whats really bad for ur system. weed isnt as harmfull as cigarettes or alcahol look at what liquor does to ur liver. it fries it

i just wanna say im not against weed but i wish we didnt smoke it at all. yeah, it's not that bad of a drug or w/e u consider it, but no matter what it does damage ur lungs. cancer or not. ur lungs are one of ur life lines why cut it off before its time?

i just did
