Yeah, it can kill cancer cells, that doesn't mean yet that it kills cancer.

It does a pretty good job on brain cells too.

Good one. Also I have met some pot smokers who routinely space out and let minutes and hours just sitting and smoking.

It's like using alcohol or anything else to excess. If you drink from morning to night 7 days a week you will be a vegetable just as you will smoking weed all your waking moments.

I have heard this as well but I have tried to look further into that claim and I can only get that information from the pro-marijuana sites. So I don't know what to think honestly but I do think more research needs to be done. I know it has been verified that THC has actually helped limit and stop people from getting seizures. I heard of a child who literally had 50 seizures a day of some degree of intensity, the child literally could not do anything due to the risk of seizures. So the family had to move to Colorado from I think NC for a medical THC oil treatment. It helped reduce the child's seizures down to literally single digits within days, and they can even count the days between a seizure now. So I do think it's a good thing and I think more research needs to be done to verify and see the benefits of what THC can be done to help others. This is much better than stuffing drugs down people's throats. 

I have always believed that everything that grows on this planet was put here for a reason, we just haven't been able to figure out how to utilize all of it properly yet. We have everything we need, in an ideal world we'll use it without having to shove chemicals at everyone.

Well, yes, as does every substance that's used in excess.

Yeah I saw that after I replied lol. It seems like in this forum(or country for that matter) it doesn't matter much if you're left, right or center, most people don't see any harm in medical or even recreational marijuana.

I know I don't.  I don't use it because it's illegal, and the Asian Tiger wife would cut my throat  

 

However I know successful people that do. 

 

I can guarantee you it would be better for sleep than aimbien

I can already tell you that you're right, it is the best sleep medication as well.

My wife said she would be ok with it if we lived in a state where it was legal. She is just worried about what would happen if I was caught being that she is from the Philippines where they lock you up and throw away the key.

That's funny. It reminds me of when my wife first moved to Israel and coming from WI where they don't even have medical, she was used to a pretty draconian approach. At the time recreational use was still criminal in Israel(but there was already medical and it has since been decriminalized as well) however not enforced very well unless you were a dealer. Users would normally just face confiscation and maybe a fine, rarely more than that depending on how much you carried on you. We were staying at one of my friends' house for the first two weeks till we could move into our apartment, and since she was not a resident yet and could not get it medically we got it from my friend who would get it off the street of course. Couldn't do it in the house though so I ended up taking her down to a bench right outside on the street with plenty of people around. She was kind of shocked, she's like what if somebody notices? what if they call the cops? I'm like don't worry it will be fine which of course it was and eventually she got used to the fact that everyone around there was used to that smell and couldn't care less who is doing it or where they are.

I totally agree with you on this. My tiger would literally take one of my guns and use it on me.

Three doctors told me (independently) that the best sleeping-pill is regular aspirin, of all things.

Did they also tell you about the horrible side effects?
