WHHHHHAAAAATTT!! I have not seen ONE Med Clinic being run by Mexicans in LA.. I know they’re there but not in abundance!
This situation is similar to how Nixon treated the Shafer Commission. When the scientists did their research and came back telling Nixon marijuana was safe and shouldnt carry criminal penalties, Nixon got rid of them, threw their research in the trash can, and made further research illegal in the U.S.
Now Gordon’s scientists are quitting on him because he refuses to accept their claim that marijuana is safer than alcohol and tobacco.
who to believe, the scientists or the politicians?
The bottom line is the AMA hasn’t supported the use of marijuana? Tee hee.
Gen. Mc , with all due respect, congress should not even deal with this… this is another state issue. …. and to promote maranol (a pharma drug) of a natural plant? Listen to the police officers point of view.
cnn isnt a conservative station first off conservatives arent nazis, im a conservative and im very much pro medical marijuana legalization it is a grea plant never thought id say this but the cop has the right idea, remember cnn is the same station that was defending that terrorist of ft hood, LEGALIZE$ IT!!! i hole heartadly agree
is this guy serious. Havent you been listening you dumb idiot? 450,000 tobacco, 0!!!!! MJ you dumb idiot
peter is the man. former po, who says regulation+taxation is the idea+ the way to go, period.
When will these conservative nazis finally stop playing hitler and give the people their freedom!? Marijuana is the most wonderful plant and medicine god has given to us! And people who want to use it, will do it anyway…
LEGALIZE IT!!!
A potential thought process one who is against legalizing marijuana (popularly smoked) would take, yes. fucking brilliant.
blunt = tobacco = enjoy cancer
and please remember that we were talking about -smoking- (I used dashes around it and it was my thesis that you responded to).
Those are nice statistics, without any references, making it a shot in the dark. If you want to argue with me that taking something way the fuck away from what our body likes for homeostasis, putting it in there over and over, coating lungs with a resinous, long-term irritant won’t cause cancer. Denial. I smoke it but am irritated by federal requests for unhealthiness
And by the way, choose something more difficult to argue against other than me using the word ‘lazy.’ The fact you selected the easiest, emotionally-related item shows you’re not using the vigilance to discuss the real issue: ‘big tobacco is bad’ only because of smoke. So let’s legalize smoking more shit, please. No, we can legalize marijuana, and let’s not highlight Smoking.
Smoking isn’t illegal, weed is, and people are always ready to pit health against desire, so we need a good route.
Oh, Bob Marley and Tricky would surely tell us all to always smoke, if Marley were alive and Tricky’s vocal chords were resonant enough to believably say so.
I like marijuana, and I’d be happy with it being legalized. Yall are missing the point – if we had it legalized in ways that make sense (as marinol does exist already) it would legalize vaporizing and other safe methods, which is a fucking gateway to getting smoking legalized.
You’re angry that I’m actually putting thought into this.
Knowing that you can get medical substances in pill-form, do you still seek out its plant derivative and cure it, smoke it? Knowing you can avoid the inherent carcinogenic effects assocaited solely with SMOKE (please enlighten me what ‘healthy smoking’ is and why I haven’t heard of it yet, and vaporizing is sublimated thc vapor – not smoke).
Sitting right above my microwave, across from the stove, is a toaster oven, and that’s what I use to be honest. Sorry to dispel your non-sequitar.
So you’re saying that because someone wants immediate effects, that makes them impulsive and lazy? Let me ask you a question. Have you ever used a microwave oven? If so, why? Most likely because it is quicker and easier. If this were true, using your own logic, you yourself are impulsive, irresponsible, and lazy. Perhaps we should outlaw microwave ovens, and only allow conventional ovens?

One battle at a time, we will win this silly ‘war’. YES WE CANNABIS!
*medically legalized
too bad 75% of america thinks it should be legalized, and ITS NEVER HURT ANYONE and has been PROVEN to grow cancer-killing brain cells. wtf ar e YOU smoking midinerd?
But please defend the NEED to smoke it vs. the other methods of intake. Vaporization, eating, and any others that might exist: pill-form. People just like the effects of how it is when you smoke it. Shit, I do.
But for a nation-wide change? I’m not interested in tobacco’s contribution to cancer – why should we legalize smoking marijuana? Given the DUI-related propaganda about it, it would be easier to legalize vaporizing (which implies patience, slow rate of hits, and home-use). try me.
I smoke. Every time I’ve come here, I’ve had a blunt ready. I comment before as not to be pacified.
I have one sitting in front of me.
But – I have a close friend who tries to say she has “state-dependent learning” and needs to be high to both store or study information, and also to recall that information for exams. A complete joke imho.
True, most aren’t aware that those who smoke all of the time are actually the least effected due to tolerance. No one discusses tolerance, it’s vital.
That was awesome at the end, now they will start thinking about regulating all drugs!
Not all who smoke are impulsive, irresponsible, or lazy. Many people get high responsibly and even function normally when high. Your last comment irritated me because you put everyone who inhales under a label. Sorry about overreacting
by the way – I smoke, “bro,” why don’t you chill the fuck out and come up with something good to say.
I think that’s your way of saying “I have no argument to what you’re saying, as it’s true that marijuana doesn’t need to be smoked for someone to still enjoy its effects and get medical use out of it.” This swisher’s to you, lil beeeitch
fuck you
Legalizing -smoking- marijuana is just a fun idea, not a smart one.
There are plenty of methods, including chewing the fucking plant and swallowing it, that don’t buy into the media-based hype of bringing a yellow joint, blunt, bong, or aristocratically-guised glass pipe. Smoking marijuana has immediate effects, whereas eating it takes several tens of minutes to take effect, and it lasts. Those wanting to smoke legally are impulsive, irresponsible, and dare I reiterate: lazy.
