Have you looked at the sales pitches? the sales pitches say pot cures most every ailment, do you really think pot is a magic cure of all these ills?
Of course pot makes sick people feel better, It makes all people fell better. that's why I and many others like to smoke occasionally, but I call it
what it is: getting high. |

Lee,
Don't know where you were in the 60's, (or whomever told you that), but any high grade cannabis produced today can't come close to the effects of
man-made purple haze, orange sunshine, or 4-way windowpane LSD readily available in the 60's. Apples and oranges.
Maybe you/they are referring to naturally produced peyote, mushrooms, or mescaline also available at the time. Still, all very potent and no where
near any of the effects of any form of THC/cannabis around today, or any day.
Granted the "good" stuff is powerful, but not at all psychedelic like the 60's.
Yah, at least that's what I am told.

Cancano and Lee--------very interesting info, and not previously known by me------thank you for your comments. Aspirin scares me, so probably will
not experiment, but I appreciate your comments. Now, some good sipping Canadian Whiskey----that is a different story.

In moderation, alcohol and pot are about same, it's all about people getting buzzed. It is hypocritical of alcohol drinkers to treat pot differently.

Most 60's and 70's weed was mostly leaf (better not have too many stems!) and flower buds were turned into Hash. There were Thai Sticks, which were
bundled flower buds 'tied' on a stem that came from Thailand that'd put a water buffalo down. I had a dentist in '72 that had some bud he'd use on
... special patients.... that coupled with Nitrous made dentistry a thing of beauty, and I HATE going to the dentist.
The strains of today are rated and priced on their potency (so i'm told). Most are pure bud with a little leaf thrown in; back in The Day I smoked a
bunch, but can't tolerate today's potency. Total paranoia and disorientation. Had a one-hit with a fellow Nam Vet who smokes constantly; he called
it "Purple Jesus!". I barely made it from his house to my 5th wheel where I comatosely spent the rest of the afternoon wondering why the hell I did
it. I don't enjoy buzzing much any more, but I've wished for NORML-ization and legalization for 50 years now.... ever since the 'matchbox
generation'. \
High, medicinal, good buzz, stoner, whatever you wanna call yourself or justify it with, more POWER TO THE PEOPLE. And Goat-Scrote, aren't you dizzy
that high on your horse? You think people should all march to your drum, and you're as full of Chit as a Christmas Turkey (or any common turkey for
that matter). You did your job; you incited animosity, which you seem to revel in. As usual.

Look at it this way. In Colorado, and other states where it is legal to purchase cannabis for recreational use, a medical card isn't necessary.
Just buy your bud and get high.
There's a reason why some folks get a medical card. And there's a reason cannabis is available to those who don't want to get high but want
medicinal relief.
DEA approving cannabis research for PTSD is a step in the right direction.
No magic cures but many substantiated studies for pain relief. Do the research or shoot from the hip, Tom.

As part of my 3.5 year old grandson's treatment for epilepsy he is taking doctor approved, high CBD, low dose marijuana. He is fortunate to live in WA
State where it is legal. There are parents from around the world trying to get approval for their child to take part in CO's program that uses
special, high CBD stains to treat epilepsy. It was covered in depth by Dr. Sanjay Gupta on his show on CNN among other news shows. Wiki
it....Charlotte's Web CBD oil.

Did I ever mention that I went to Helix High with Dennis Hopper? He turned me in for smoking backstage during rehearsals for Sr. class play.

Dealing with a wife dying of cancer, medicinal pot kept here off opiates until she went into hospice. There is a eatable which is 100%CBD's without
THC that worked. At the same time I had a old beagle who was is his final weeks of his life who was in pain and depressed with his dying owner. There
is a product called Canna4Pets that is made from hemp and can be sold without the hassle. There is no measurable THC. The dog could hardly walk and
wouldn't eat. I gave him the meds and that night he could walk again without apparent pain and ended up that night climbing up the stairs and getting
in bed with me. It improved the quality of life and he lived comfortable for 5 months and had a cold wet nose and a wagging tail until his last 24
hours. The stuff works and those who think it is just getting stoned need to get it out of their mind. There is more research coming out about the
effects of various Cannabinoids many will reduce pain, anxiety which will make you feel better without the high from THC.

It's unfortunate that there is such a moral judgement by some around the use of cannabis (in whatever form).
It's always interesting to read about folks glorifying their alcohol consumption and NORMLizing it as a social standard....but dissing cannabis
users. The old Reefer Madness link has already been mentioned....seems like some folks buy into it.
Some folks react poorly to cannabis (especially when gobbling the brownies unknowingly ), but it is fair to say that for those with anxiety problems, it sometimes increases anxiety until the user is more
"experienced"....it's a matter of dosage, intention, and managing one's consciousness...a challenge of balance.
High grade pot can certainly have psychotropic outcomes, but not usually hallucinogenic to the extent that LSD or organics (e.g. peyote cactus,
psilocybin, etc).
"Medicinal" pot is a curious term....as has been referred to earlier...."medicinal" is more a reference to the application more than the
strain....aside from the strains being developed to more the intended effect of pain and seizure management than the "high".
Don't believe everything you think....

Go into a medical pot place. They are primarily marketing pot to get buzzed, very few of the customers are there for treatment of any real disease.

CBD pain relief without THC, fascinating, I had no idea about this.
here's a question, if all this low to high test weed is available through dispensaries, who's buying all this pot thats being smuggled through the
border??? is it that much cheaper?

The crap coming from Mexico is for easy/cheap sales, I imagine.
Up here in the frozen wastelands, pot enthusiasts get to enjoy primo bud...."No stems no seeds that you don't need...". The same is likely true in
parts of the USA where local growers offer a much better product than the Mexican stuff.
Since 9-11, the Canada-to-USA border smuggling is much more difficult and has decreased somewhat from what I have heard, but it happens regularly.
NorCal bud is a good contender/competitor for BC bud....don't know about what they smoke in Arkansas or Ohio....or in Kansas.
Mexican is cheap....

It's a very simple answer why Mexican weed is still coming over in TONS at a time; only a few States has decriminalized or ok'd medicinal use. As
I've stated many times, if the rest follow suit the over-the-border demand will be nil.... especially for enthusiasts who can finally grow their own
next to their tomatoes. Again, THEN the DEA can concentrate more on the serious stuff without wasting time and energy on something that is going to
happen. Hopefully sooner than later. Kinda like letting women vote; who woulda thunk it?? Now they think they can run for President!

Its criminal that this treatment, that has proven effective, is outlawed in most places. Saw the program and there are folks moving their whole
families to states where they can get help.
