Retarded Policeman #1: Hi
@shalomirene1 can you please provide me with the scientific paper or source where you got any quotes from professionals in this subject? link it, then I can consider your point, because it is easy for people to get things like you just said wrong, but who knows, maybe you’ve found the giant important fact that every stoner should know
@SJVEChannel I mean, that is what they are currently doing. They spend a lot of money on preventing drug use. The real world result of this war is that drugs are as more available than ever before and more potent. hence our governments are involved with a negatively loaded viral campaign for drugs and t is very successful
@manonapedistal How would it be wasting billions? If anything they would be making more money, if they made it publicaly available. Then people wouldn’t resort to buying their weed from criminals.
@SJVEChannel If the governments of the world want to waste billions on a expanding the illegal drug market, which is what they are in effect doing!, then let them. Let them explain why we cant have proper education, why the public buildings are falling apart, the roads crack open etc. but there are plenty of money to help criminals expand their markets and go into wars that…well basically is just helping criminals expand their market.

@SJVEChannel Don’t waste to much effort on the whole "legal" thing. It is available all over the world and cheap prices and a fairly potent product. The prohibition does not actually mean anything other than a natural expansion of the market, which means it gets bigger and more available for ever time the gobmint try to "toughen up" the laws.

@SJVEChannel "If that’s the issue, why is alcohol and cigarettes legal?" …your guess is as good as mine. THe problem with government organizations is that once they are established, they are practically impossible to get rid off again. After the failed, utter miserably failed prohibition in the US, a lot of cops faced a jobless situation. A new enemy was created to keep wheels turning?

@manonapedistal If that’s the issue, why is alcohol and cigarettes legal? They are more harmful to the body and have many times more deaths. Even if it is psychologically addictive, it is not as bad as the media puts it out to be. You are more likely to cause harm to someone when drunk on alcohol. People shouldn’t be jailed for many years years for smoking marijuana. The gov’t just gives us no choice and refuses to listen to facts

The drugs that are legal are more harmful than marijuana. Alcohol= liver disease; and causes you to do crazy things…smoking cigarettes= lung cancer and basically deteriorates every other part of your body. Marijuana= makes you calm and laugh a lot..and probably makes your cardio sucky if you smoke everyday…no marijuana related deaths unless a guy was too high to move away from a moving car. Why is it illegal? Only thing is don’t drive when you’re high…other than that there is no harm.

@terra61 But this society does not understand schizophrenia very well… or at least it wants us to have that impression. I think these altered states of conciousness doesn’t always mix too well with our cultural programming (that refuses to acknowledge anything but our very limited definition of ‘reality’).

@UberREDKitteh yeah. The physical dependency of pot is negotiable. After prolonged use people who go cold turkey may experience a couple of restless sweaty nights.

@UberREDKitteh Pot can be highly psychologically addictive. Make no mistake about it. A psychological dependency on somthing, a drug, a person, an item, can be ever bit as devastating and hard to deal with as a physical addiction.

i dont think many people smoke more than 3 joints a day, which is the amount the cancer doctor was experimenting with.

@shalomirene1 There is no doubt in my mind that many of these people find something in its use that comforts their ailment. Unfortunately without proper and educated supervision it easily turns into abuse. Abuse is everybody’s master and the destroyer of all that is good. It may well have therapeutic value but we need to separate snot from beard before we can get to know whats what. The public debate is ill informed, emotional and driven by beliefs more than sense and fact.

@shalomirene1 The damage done is reversible but if psychiatric problems have surfaced, they obviously needs treatment. Also I am not blind to the psychological dependency. It is harder to treat people with serious pot abuse than a heroinist (fact!). My own pet theory is that it has to do with whom the core group of perpetual users are. People who self-medicate. I think psychiatric symptoms are overrepresented with pot because people with those very problems are attracted to it to begin with.

@shalomirene1 It actually comes out as remarkably non-toxic. If 10 million people worldwide (a dramatically high number pulled straight out of the lower end of my back) get medical problems from it and you compare that to the suspected number of smokers (UNWHO’s numbers), which is put at pretty much 25% of any given population anywhere in the world, then you have a substance that gets way more attention than it deserves.

@shalomirene1 I believe you are speaking the truth, but it is only half of it. If you have a predisposition to paranoia, depression etc. there is a larger chance (not guarantee) that these problems may surface earlier than they otherwise would have. For those afflicted, these are serious problems that can’t be ignored. If you compare the suspected number of those who enjoy pot or have done so, with the number of people who get a psychiatric problem with a suspected link to pot…

Imagine the difference it would actually make if just half the resources wasted on loosing the "war on drugs" were spend on helping those who for one reason or the other cannot have a normal relationship with intoxicants. These same people often have multiple abuses (pot, alcohol, coke), so its not a matter of any single drug is the culprit in this persons problems.

Don’t ever allow the government tools to play the bait and switch game anymore. Drug ABUSE is a serious thing, it is a symptom of a deep spiritual or medical problem (depending on your sympathies). The ‘USE’ of an illegal drug is not ‘ABUSE’ in itself as they have at the core of every single argument about it that they make. Drug abusers need help, not scorn or the full force of the law upon them.

@shalomirene1
That’s interesting. I wonder if the paranoia is perhaps a psychosomatic effect of the ever present threat of imprisonment in a very intimidating jail complex for possessing even small amounts of cannabis? The U.S. has the highest prison population in the world, remember. I think there is more than enough evidence to suggest a psychosomatic correlation between paranoia ’caused by’ cannabis and paranoia as a result of the penalties dealt for smoking cannabis.
