  • You’ve come in here with a preconceived notion that there’s no value whatsoever to marijuana. Questioning why anyone would use it, but you do not accept anyone’s answers. You obviously don’t believe in people’s freedom either, to make the best choice for their own mental health or any other reason they choose. You have nothing to offer but junk science and anecdotes, and a prescription for others to suffer more.


  • From a Medical Marijuana Educational Guide (full disclosure, it’s connected to a dispensary):

    *Also note: it uses “Medical Marijuana” language because it’s from a state where only medical is legal, not recreational.

    Medical Marijuana works by impacting the Endocannabinoid System we all have in our bodies.

    “Your body already makes Medical Marijuana-like chemicals that affect pain, inflammation, sleep and many other processes. It mimics those naturally occurring compounds in the body, and can produce therapeutic effects.” -Laura Borgelt, PharmD, University of Colorado





  • Right, only if you are speaking about children. The proof I use is the massive demand for it, along with the no massive damage to people or society over all these years. And, this is in the face of illegality and jail time. So other than some focused study on the effects of youth that result in an appropriate response, you can get out of here with your junk science and reefer madness. Alcohol is much more damaging on the brain. Look it up!


  • I’m having trouble following some of the last parts of your comment. Are you saying that it’s worth it for the anti-smoking angle, like for health benefits? There are other methods for taking marijuana that have nothing to do with inhalation. Additionally, children can be prescribed CBD, to be taken through digestion or sublingually. This is a proven treatment for controlling seizures.

    If you want to address smoking, I think there’s much to be said. But making it all about smoking is a distortion. And until others prove otherwise, to me it’s deliberate. Vaping isn’t seen today as harmful like combustion is. I’m sure there’s more to learn there, but all of these things are positive developments, that should be spoken about along with the negatives folks simply want to focus on.
