Thread: What are your opinions on Cannabis?

for $100-200 you can get a variety of nice vapes, and it's definitely worth it.

i need to look up the recipe again, but i think you just cook it into oil, then just add the oil to tea.

Nothing compares to a solid 3 hours of deep thought while high on cannabis.

Great for dreams!

Marijuana is a medicine, but like any other medicine with a mind altering effect, the capacity exists to become dependent. This dependency is a health issue, not a legal issue. The idea that to stop drugs we have to go after the user is fueled by the interests which want to form in the world a Prison Industrial Complex.

Marijuana is medicine, but it's not just a medicine. Not even primarily a medicine. I would say that it's primarily a recreational drug.

It's a recreational drug when I smoke it for fun. It's medicine when I feel sick, feel major pain, or can't get to sleep. I think it's about half and half. It really is big time kick ass medicine. While the U.S. government takes another 4 billion years to do "research" and supposedly get the information they need about marijuana's medicinal nature, I know the truth from personal experience. It is one of the most versatile medicines there is. I will say that abusing it makes me sick, ironically.

Weed is a great drug, there's really nothing like it! I've had some pretty great experiences with the stuff. Legalize it and what not!

La vie est si ennuyeux.

Alors, je fume.

I'd say that it's primarily mankind's most versatile and valuable resource (next to water).

An answer to so many problems. I mean think about it, who put it here and why? While evolution can be described as an accident there are way too many coincidences than to not have suspicions that there is a creator. Weed doesn't just make you feel good, it's also safe for consumption, no matter what the liars have to say on the matter. I don't know how our society justifies making it illegal. I guess people don't think past what they are told to think.

If you look at it from a global political aspect one of the lies they tell us is that it will make us lazy and make America less effective in competition with other countries. Well why don't they just lock us up to a workbench? We already work a crap ton as a country, why don't they at least let us come home from that and relax. Oh well that's what liquor is for I guess. Just drink it up and go crazy, that's what they want you to do. Go get liver cancer, that's what they want.

For Christians, this is Genesis 1:29.

Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.

That could be the answer for all legalization supporters. People need to incorporate pot into their religions and then argue for freedom of religion. Native Americans did it with peyote, and it worked.

That's irrelevant. The reason it's illegal is not because it's fun, it's because a superstition against it has been carefully manufactured over the last century in order to increase the profits of the prison industry.

All sorts of medicine can also be used recreationally. I'm going through all this forced rehabilitation shit right now, and it's all centered around the abuse of the drug. This happens when the drug circumvents your normal process of reward based behavior and becomes supplemental to everything you do, IE dependency.

Dependency is a health issue. Being dependent on a drug does not mean you're a criminal. Outlawing the use of a drug in order to protect people from abusing it is like outlawing bacon to protect people with high cholesterol, and then throwing someone in jail because they aren't following a good diet. Hell, outlawing marijuana is more like outlawing orange juice to prevent over-supplementing your vitamin C. The persecution of drug users is nothing more than an excuse to feed one of society's many parasites.

Pot, God's way of saying High!

you know who appreciated cannabis? Carl Sagan. You know who didn't? Hitler.

I miss brownies!

Habitual Cannabis use in adolescence causes significant IQ reduction.

Oh no, not IQs! o.o Hm, I wonder how much of the cause is actually psychology/culturally based rather than neurologically based.

I would guess very little. Marijuana increases my ability to think spatially, which is anecdotal I know but it seems like the only way marijuana would reduce your IQ is if you use it as an excuse not to think, which many people do.

If I smoke weed once in a while, it gives me a new way of looking at things and helps my intelligence in that way. If I smoke it all the time, it definitely makes me dumber. The increase in stupidity can last weeks after I stop.

Yeah same for me, if I smoke too often it dulls mental activity.

Nothing wrong with it.
Cannabis is a beautiful plant that can be used for pretty much anything.
Generally it's misused, when used for meditation purposes it can take you to amazing heights
I enjoy it greatly but I limit my use now because it interferes with my dreams.

No harm can come from this plant.

To be fair, exposing your brain to drugs on a regular basis at a young age is not very intelligent to begin with. That's why I believe in an 18+ regulation, at least for purchasing. I think it's okay that young people also get to drink and smoke, if they want to, just not too much.
