Dont take this pharmaceutical crap,

30 paracetamol = dead
30 pints vodka = dead
Too many anti-depressants, ADHD drugs for kids or cancer treatments = Dead
aspirin = dead
1000 big macs = dead
Living with governments that cannot provide alternative energy, yet let Nuclear plants kill millions = Dead
Protesting in the country you were born in killed by government/ police = Dead
Speaking out agains the big money earners that will do nothing except gain power = Dead


This man is stupid 100000 joints = high, alive, peaceful, fair and trusting

That's another thing about pills vs. weed. You can smoke all the weed you want & eventually you'll reach a limit of where you can't get any higher.

But pills, the more you take, the higher your risk of overdosing.

I'd say the main reason they are promoting the abuse of pills (& I say this because they want us to switch from abusing marijuana to taking pills) is POPULATION CONTROL.

You know, people, I have been thinking abut this. I think when a Congressman, an educated person says a thing like this, and is blatantly against Medical Marijuana ---
must be on the payroll of someone interested in keeping it illegal. Otherwise it wouldn't make sense, in light of what we now know about Marijuana for medial purposes.

Well hopefully your ok now...yeah see that's exactly my point... i mean im not sayin meds are bad although some are pretty evil.... but some people have crazy reaction....i myself was on paxil for like 3 days and threw it in the trash....it made me feel really off and strange.....i was like bein stuck in a glass box i dunno....no emotion everything seemed plain to me...and felt a bit sick simply because it was wierding me out....

and for others they work miracles but even if people can find bad stuff about marijuana all i can say is compare it to you local drug store drug and marijuana always wins as far as side effects n crap like that....

but in no way is medical herb a precription for everything...some people seem to think so...but it covers quite a bit and it does it safely.... lol montel williams and alot of other people including doctors are discussing medical marijuana as we speak on WDIV channel 4 in Michigan shows almost over and everything is about 85% in favor of medical marijuana as long as treated properly..... tune in if you can find it....

Recent research shows that marijuana may relieve some of the symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The debate rages on, but many people, both kids and adults, are reporting the alleviation of their symptoms with marijuana usage. It helps slow down the progression of rapidly firing thoughts—something that plagues those with ADHD and makes it hard for them to focus. -=)




ADDED- NOW IF YOUR PREGNANT YES PLEASE DONT SMOKE CUZ THAT CAN CAUSE MAJOR ISSUES WITH CHILD DEVELOPMENT.... but if anyone does any drugs or drinks while pregnant you need to be BISH SLAPPED
BISH SLAPPED .

More absurdity from another vacuous talking head. We have realy stupid people running the world right now people. Maybe idiots have always ran the show? Sit back and laugh at this abomination of a nation, a civilization on the verge of collapse. They don't want you to smoke a particular herb because by doing so would free you from this illusion, the matrix of their control. It would change your perspective, you would see clearly that the emperor is wearing no clothes and that he is nothing more than a puppet, his strings being pulled by a higher, covert eschalon of sociopathic imbeciles. These cats are batsh¥t crazy. What can you do? I guess laugh at it all? I am sick ah cryin and too damn tired to get pissed off anymore. Enjoy the comedy show my brothers and sisters. PEACE

Sure no problem

endadhd.com...

I had way more links but never saved them I found this one relatively quickly.

REPLY TO: AnitaCigarerrette, LMFAO too, my Russian sister....boyfreind theivery? That's a hoot, thanks for makin me laugh! We got to cherish our laughs... cause my eyes are red from cryin for the world. Our beautiful world. What have THEY done to it? I had no part in this. I made no informed desicion of my own volition...inspired by the real deal, all the facts...you know the TRUTH. No I, We were maliciously kept in the dark by a conspiracy of lies, a web of deceit conceived in black, villianous hearts. And they have the nerve to wonder why we seek the herb to heal our bodies and minds after being pierced by the foul encrusted arrows of a sinister bowman?

It's funny that the government doesn't even except the studies it paid for that contradict what they claim publicly.

Here's one example...

HEAVY MARIJUANA USE AS A YOUNG ADULT WON’T RUIN YOUR LIFE: Veterans Affairs scientists looked at whether heavy marijuana use as a young adult caused long-term problems later, studying identical twins in which one twin had been a heavy marijuana user for a year or longer but had stopped at least one month before the study, while the second twin had used marijuana no more than five times ever. Marijuana use had no significant impact on physical or mental health care utilization, health-related quality of life, or current socio-demographic characteristics. Eisen SE et al. Does Marijuana Use Have Residual Adverse Effects on Self-Reported Health Measures, Socio-Demographics or Quality of Life? A Monozygotic Co-Twin Control Study in Men. Addiction. Vol. 97 No. 9. p.1083-1086. Sept. 1997

5) OOPS, MARIJUANA MAY PREVENT CANCER (PART I): Federal researchers implanted several types of cancer, including leukemia and lung cancers, in mice, then treated them with cannabinoids (unique, active components found in marijuana). THC and other cannabinoids shrank tumors and increased the mice’s lifespans. Munson, AE et al. Antineoplastic Activity of Cannabinoids. Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Sept. 1975. p. 597-602.

It's obvious there are other agendas at work here. Cannabis could put the pharmers out of business, and we know under capitalism money is the only motivator.

Apparently i've had a mental illness since grade 6...

hmm....how tragic

lets see im 32 now....thats uhm...12 + 4 = ....uhm

20 years

I wish some one told me back then...

Congressman cause mental illness !!!!!!!!!!!!

Shows once again those who criminalize marijuana know nothing about it.

I am watching as we speak "Intervention" and it's on a young girl with rheumatoid arthritis and she takes about 25 pills A DAY. She can barely walk, speak or function. I have NEVER in my life seen marijuana cause this affect on someone.


Yeah sure take your pills and be a zombie.

Gee, I wonder if one of his main campaign contributors is big pharma?

This guy clearly knows nothing about which he speaks...

And if it is prescribed drugs he wants,I know a few people who do have a prescription for what they are smoking.....

the only thing pot is bound to do, is take away your drive to accomplish things. THATS IT. it doesn't give you a mental illness, wtf?

It is BOUND to you say? Really? Geez, I guess all my college buddies with full time jobs haven't heard that yet...

Geez Im in college too, I already have one degree, Doesn't mean that every once in a while the pot takes away my ambition. Every person I know that smokes has had that problem atleast once, ask your buddies I bet they will say the same. Its not necaceraly (spelling fail) a bad thing, but it does happen.
