The War on Drugs kills people and destroys families every day. If everyone had just a little courage to resist this, it would go away. I admire this brave lady.
okay thats odd, i recall cannabis as a plant, not drug. Ive never heard of POT alone destroying someones life. I heard people who use to smoke pot but did it to much, got used to it and went on to hardcore drugs like crack and what not. Ive been smoking pot myself for quite a few years and it has done nothing but bettered my life. Its made my attitude towards things great, helps me concentrate and understand things more. It has made me a much better person than i use to be when i didnt smoke it
EternalMasterTyler is correct in his statement. Smoking herb puts more carcinogens in your lungs, tar, etc. However, smoking it allows every cannabinoid to be released, where as vaporizing it only allows the thc to be released into your system.
@xgmb45 Do you care to cite your source? I would like to know where you got that information and how that figure was amounted to. Frankly, I think people who wish to use the internet need to undergo a screening process that weeds out ignorant people.
Perhaps to you, you feel and do better when on the drug. Many others I knew, who used the drug, thought the same as you - but they would behaving erractically, violent mood swings, and worse. In certain cases, it would cause additional health problems, which they felt needed more usage - but all it did was result in further damage. One of the worst cases I saw was someone in rehab who ended up having lesions in his brain and his liver had almost literally liquified due to marijuana.
"People who support the drug war do so only out of blind obedience." Well said and a sad truth of our modern world.... "Nothing to see here..move along..move along.."
In all fairness, others thought the same of me - after I had tried to kill myself with inhalant abuse. I couldn't sleep, my nerves were raw, and my skin began to turn yellow. I now have cirrhosis as a result of my usage (although it is currently stablized, fortunately). But I will tell you that I'm more humbled by having this disease. Its made me realize what a fool I was in doing what I did. Many others I know have gone through worse with marijuana and those that do give it up do better off it.
@ChrisVaughn85 I tried, but in Texas we have tort reform so no lawyer will take my case unless I pay by the hour. I don't know if I have a case in the future. If I won any money I want to honor my son by helping addicts by opening a clinic or contributing to a good one that has the right treatment like Nora Volkow talks of minimum of 90 days.
No I don't naively believe everything I see or hear from the media or TV. I actually speak from firsthand experience and I've seen how the drug has ruined people's lives. Although in my case, I almost ruined my life with inhalant abuse - but I also was a drug addict (taking prescription drugs). Luckily, I quit cold turkey and have been clean now for over 3 years, but many others I knew - decided to keep pressing to have their drug usage legalized and it all results in them destroying themselves.
I'm laughing about how childish the world actually is, a bunch of 40+ children making rules because they want control... they just didn't figured out what it's all about.
@Tripo1iSamson without that tax it will never be legal its about money its always been about money it will always be about money we need themoney anyway all that cash going to the government instead of gangs wold give a huge boost to the economy. also, i dont need to resort to petty name calling
