The truth about marijuana

Yeah, it is definitely better for you than a lot of other drugs i just hate it when people try to claim that its good for you
 
i don't think any rational person tries to claim "its good for you so everyone should smoke everyday." there are just so many negative side effects attributed to weed that simply aren't true. cannabis can be good for you in some ways and has been proven to have favorable medical benefits. just like red wine has benefits to your heart if not consumed in excess. no one is forcing marijuana on anyone, but no one can say its this harmful scary drug, because it isnt.
 
Dont even comment until youve watched the video and the reason stoners are usualy stupid is casue were dumb before we smoked weed and mainly just lazy so stfu and watch the damn video
 
ok go up to your local pot head and ask him ho his lifes turning out. pot is never something to say thats good think about it usually you are burning a weed and then in haling the smoke it may be "all Natural" but smoking it is not natural humans have never been designed to in hale smoke. the causes in the long run of long term pot use and be sever. why is this stuff on NS there is 14 and 15 year olds on here they come on here and see that there is nothing wrong with smoking a joint so they do it i just wanna know why its on here
 
#1. Vaporizer

#2. Punctuation....at least to the point where we can read it.

#3. Its on here because theres this thing called FREEDOM OF SPEECH, look into it.

#4. Post some facts instead of the hear say your mommy and daddy told you. Maybe even a link to a CREDITABLE source? Too much to ask much to ask for?

Funny how that creditable scientific source is hard to come by...

i fuckin HATE when people say this...whether you think so or not, I have never seen a "smart" stoner.
 
i have. lived with a kid at UW who smokes everyday and is chemical engineering major. this major only accepts about 100 students each year, and he is in the top like 5% of students in the major. smartest kid i ever met. loves pot. pot doesn't make him any smarter, he is just smart. but it also didnt make him dumber either.
 
right, that's why i was a straight A student and have a great job now. and why the two people i blazed with every week in high school were the valedictorians of each of their schools. and why literally millions of people and i blaze all the time and are way smarter than your stupid ass, and can discern the difference between correlation and causation
 
smoking pot can only act as a catalyst that can potentially set off someone who already has the predisposition to have schizophrenia, it does not cause it. misleading graph eh?
 
Jesus, you really don't know how to research . You must look at both sides of the issue, not just the grasscity forums saying that weed is the best thing for you. I smoke a fair amount of ganja, but you have to understand the issue. It can lead to open-mindedness. But even this in itself is not from the actual smoking, but the culture surrounding it. Not actually being smarter.
 
i'm just saying man, from personal experience, and having heard it from current and past stoners alike, after a time it will start to take a toll on your head. i dont know where to go about finding scientific journal reports, but here are a few more articles backing me up (i know, they're not peer reviewed, so they must be made up)...

but hey, if you got some nug that keeps your head clear as day, please, send it my way
 
If your curious about what weed does to you read the Schafer Report. Report done in the years of the Nixon Administration, when Nixon started the whole war on drugs. Report showed some interesting results, and may I remind you that this was a GOVERNMENT REPORT. All in all the report said that weed has no negative effects on users.
 
its really just gonna amplify whatevers goin on in your head. it doesnt make people dumb or smart just enhances however you are at the moment.
 
Pick any two of those and I'll take the time to tear them apart. Literally lol'd at some of those.
 
it just gets old bro.. my whole point is that it's not a big deal but people make it one. i hate talking about it in real life, believe me, my friends and i just don't. we smoke it and that's that
 
Please don't say "people dont wanna hear about it" when there are 2 multi-page threads about it, You don't want to hear about it, but you can't speak for everyone else.
 
" i knew a kid that was killed by a driver that was high"

That sucks. But there's a ton more cases of people getting into accidents talking on their cell phones, changing the ipod, or just sucking at driving.

"http://www.drugfreeworld.org/drugfacts/the-truth-about-drugs.html"

Calling your site "drug free world" shows that your goal is to achieve something that cannot and never will never be achievable. You are never going to get rid of the drug supply by making drugs illegal. It creates room for profit and right there you give people business opportunities. The greater the risks, the more $ to be made. And the science in those government websites is full of shit.

The freedom of speech is fine. But we're allowed to call you out on being insanely ignorant if you believe drugfreeworld is giving you the most factual information on the net.

 
Actually you're wrong too lol. You're repeating the revised anti-drug position. The truth: A correlation

between marijuana use and psychosis doesn't necessarily mean that

marijuana caused the psychosis. Many of the researchers made this clear

in their findings, but reporters left it out. Reporters also

failed to observe that massive increases in marijuana use over the past

century have not corresponded with increased rates of psychosis.
 
no need to tear them apart. but you do seem to know what your talking about, so can you tell me about marijuana and memory, and the relationship between them? i've read all this shit telling me that it fucks with your memory, and i've found that it definitely fucks with mine, i'd just like to see the other side of it.
 
Well said.

Sad part is, MANY(who wont look any further, or simply do not have the time during the busy day) will take that site as %100 truth.

Its like if you go to FOX News as your only source of information....
 
Ah ok. So marijuana only effects memory retention while under the influence. If you smoke during the weekend, you're going to have trouble remembering it come Monday. This is why people do poorly in school when they smoke all the time. If you go to school high you won't remember it. This leads to people thinking the drug dumbed them down or something along those lines which is just wrong. The good news is that there is no long-term harm to memory. If you stop smoking you'll have no trouble recalling anything.
 
yeah well like i said earlier, correlation versus causation. i didn't bother listing the things wrong with the graph, i just conceded that in some cases, loony people get high and get even loonier. big surprise
 
Well I agree, but there are some people that attempt to argue that first point. They end up getting shit on, but its still ridiculous.
 
All things in moderation. I hope one day soon all drugs are made legal and we can let natural selection sort out the rest. I find it silly that I can buy my smokes that cause cancer and other nasty shit that they display so proudly on the package but I can't go out and buy some coke, at least that shit will get me nice and high.
 
weed definitely brings out the dumb lazy stoner in all of us. the problem is when you're a dumb lazy stoner all the time. then you start losing motivation to do anything. and you get chronic coughs, along with being sick for longer if you continue to smoke while sick. personal case study over the years.
 
I dont give a fuck what people wish to believe but weed makes you dumber if youre smoking it. Youre not going to be less intelligent becasue you smoked a joint one time, but if you blaze everyday youre not helping yourself at all.

And ive smoked everyday for the past two years so come at me bro
 
When you're young and in school, this is true. Like I've already said, it can effect memory retention while under the influence. However, while this is true for most at that age, it can also help others learn by taming ADHD.Also, once beyond that stage, it often does the opposite. It can assist in creatively piecing together facts you already know.
 
I like how I can click a thread and you've already posted what I'm thinking, it saves me a shitload of time. I'm going to go make pancakes now.
 
Because if it does anything slightly negative it must not be able to do anything positive right? I smoked instead of eating pharmies to do better in school. I could focus much better.
