The truth about marijuana

assuming this vid is in favor of marijuana...but one thing I can tell you is that when I used to smoke, I would get sever bronchitis every summer and had an awful cough. Def can be bad for you.
 
thats from a longer documentary called "The Union: The Business Behind Getting High." I would recommend watching the whole thing. Pretty eye-opening stuff.
 
Word. Probably seen it before. Just watched a really good one I had never seen on link tv the other day.

"damage done"

Link is all paid for by donations so they can really cover some good shit. The doc got into some shit that I don't think I've ever really seen in a televised doc. I mean you can read about it and maybe watch videos on some stuff online, but It's cool to see it on tv.
 
i have and still do smoke a fair amount of the ganja plant, i dont think id go as far as to say it makes you "smarter". it may influence creativity or interest, but definitely not intelligence.
 
The union is great, the movie super high me is actually pretty good to. its funny but tells some truths about the nugget plant

 
and/or someone way spraying buds to make them appear "more dank". No fun!

Either way, just messing with ya!!! I had to poke at ya at least a litttttle bit :)
 
vaps cost a lot just to smoke weed.

anyways, if weed makes you smarter then why are all the hippies such dumb shits?
 
meh not really, those okay ones are like 50 or 60 bucks. not that crazy at all

no comment on the second part, but the fact that people still believe that pot makes you dumber is astounding
 
i think being high makes you fucking stupid, but i believe that weed doesn't affect your intelligence at all.
 
don't you just love it when kids younger than you try to call you out for being young? and yeah people are fucking retarded when they're drunk. are you high and drunk right now? because you are being insanely stupid. seriously, this may have been one of the dumbest things i've read in a long time.
 
i can definitely feel the effects of long term heavy use. for me i'd say the main negative side affect is memory. i cant remember shit. ask me what i did over the weekend on a monday, and it'll take me a minute or two dig through my thoughts and recall. annoying as fuck
 
things when youre actually high at the time- maybe. affecting your memory completely, even when youre not high- no.
 
im not even watching the video but dont be fooled kids! marijuana fucks with your shit! after being a casual smoker for about 2 years i started smoking more and more and upon coming out to british columbia i went nutso on the amazing bud, partly due to its cheap costs out here. i always thought i could quit and it would be whatever. so finals were coming around the corner and i told myself i would stop. so after going from smoking like 3 times a day and being high for like everything i was now sober...and damn it was weird. i had a huge self confidence issue, and felt like i had to re-learn shit all over again. fucks with you more than youd think. but ya that was at the beginning of the month and Im totally not reliant on it anymore, obviously its not an "addictive drug". i guess with everything, do it in moderation of youre gonna smoke, at least thats what ive learned.
 
all you dumb ass stoners suck, weed is so bad for you, it causes cancer of the lung and mouth, kills your brain cells, makes you fat, and guarantees you will start doing something worse
 
Nomatter what comes out, people for it believe what they want, people against it believe what they want. I'm currently trying to convince my parents its not the devils drug they think it is, but my mom won't budge an inch.... she came from a family with an alcoholic father
 
the truth about marijuana, its a shitty drug do something better. im actually really surprised with the amount of people stating negative effects, I too once thought it did nothing wrong and didn't affect memory. From experience it does affect memory, mostly my timeline, like i remembered events that happened, but couldn't remember if it happened two days ago or a few weeks ago (any one else notice something like this?) I used to smoke daily, then one day quite cold turkey, thank you mushroom trip.

a good website is quitweedandsucceed.com

and as far as the union goes, a quality doc, one of my favourites, with lots of info, but too biased toward pro-weed.
 
once again, you guys placebo-effecting yourselves doesnt mean anything. anecdotal evidence doesnt trump scientific studies. "my timeline's all screwed up!!" haha oookay
 
you are an idiot, human experience is the basis of all scientific studies. something happens and someone experiences it with a multitude of senses to dumb it down. therefore anecdotal evidence is equal if not better than scientific evidence.
 
sorry. its fact.

N=1

versus

N= hundreds and hundreds of people

do you even know what science is? honestly what you just said is pants-on-head retarded ("therefore anecdotal evidence is equal if not better than scientific evidence")

okay i'm getting off the internet now, you guys are so stupid it's depressing me
 
the only part of that passage that says anything certain talks about giving it to rats that are newborn and in adolescence. everyone knows if you smoke your face off while your brain is developing you're gonna fuck with your mind.

the closest it got to confirming what you said is "it may" blah blah blah. show me a scientific report (not a report on a report, i'm talking first hand, peer reviewed scientific journal report) that says conclusively that humans' memory gets permanently worse from smoking and i will agree with you (not to be taken as a challenge or whatever, i'm saying if you can supply it you win)
 
I hate it when people try to argue that weed is good for you, and i'm not trying to say that it is bad for, just that there is no way that it makes you smarter or is good for you in general.
 
you obviously don't know very much about science and the philosophy behind it if you think that N=1 is superior or even close to as supportive as N=hundreds/thousands
 
Creativity+1, less violence+1, keeping you away from some pharmy drugs +1.

There are little to know risks about it. IF you want to peddle the littlest details look at the pharmy drugs. Look at all the side effects associated with them.

Marijuana isn't 100% perfect, but it's a shit ton better than plenty of the other stuff that people are being prescribed. One of the safest drugs out there.
 
literally the dumbest study ive ever seen. of course if you pump pot into a developing infant (rat or human), the child's brain will develop differently and he or she will have cognitive function issues. its the same reason we dont give alcohol to little kids. Moreover, women shouldn't drink while pregnant because the child will have birth defects. soooo dumb.
