The studies you've listed say nothing about smoking weed. Just that the cannabinoids can help with brain cells and cancer. That make cannabinoid extract pills that would give you that benefit (if any benefit actually exists). The only thing is that the pills won't get you high, which let's face it, is all you really want to begin with

Both have high percentages of resulting in one's death, traffic less likely so, which ties into my original post. If you're going to try and argue with me please, for the love of Christ, give me something to ponder instead of spouting nonsense.

Both don't automatically affect you though , like I said. Something else has to happen for you to be hurt while playing in traffic for it to affect you, but smoking weed and drinking alcohol are the very acts that actually affect you. Go back to when you first insulted me and try and figure out where you went wrong with trying to argue against me while accidentally agreeing with me and trying to cover it up.

Wasn't this supposed to be a thread on weed and not traffic? >.>

Weed... Destroys lungs, causes lung cancer which is even more common than liver cancer... Even breathing in too much water vapor is bad for you. Converting ANYTHING to smoke and breathing it in is bad for you.

Do you know WHY people that smoke pot are looked so down upon? Nobody would care if you did it on your own time, with your own buddies or recreationally. What I find most annoying is that people who are always asking you for money, e.g a stoner roommate who always needs you to spot him on rent because he's "a bit short that month" but ALWAYS has money for weed, or a homeless guy who needs shelter but you see him with a blunt or bottle later are continuously buying the stuff.

My point is, people that smoke weed have an almost obsessive tendency to try to get people who DON'T to do it, by stating benefits that have absolutely no effect on the users life in the first place. Or, they look at people who don't smoke as pricks.

Or the people who swear that it has 101 health benefits. That may be true, but whenever one of my buddies passes a blunt and I say no, the conversation goes like this:

"Dude, it helps glaucoma"
"But I don't have glaucoma..."
"Man it helps cancer"
"But I don't have cancer...."
"It helps with sore joints"
"I feel fine..."

Honestly, all of these "facts" are looked up or made up by people that really just want to justify why they smoke, when they should just smoke if they feel like it and not worry about others.

You say it's not addicting, then why is it that almost everyone I had went to high school with magically somehow needed to get 20$ for a twenty sack? How much money was wasted? THEN the munchies= bigger waste of money.

And if you really want to "get rid of your problems" face them directly and tackle them on your own, why escape from reality?

This site disagrees on many fronts as well...



Moral of the story: Weed doesn't actually piss me off, hell I've smoked a few times too in High School (gets kinda old at 22) but it's more or less stoners that absolutely cannot live without it and swear by it that annoy me away from it.

I had a couple of friends in college who would decide between buying food for the week or getting weed. Weed won 9 times out of ten. The real fact is that most people could care less if weed actually eases pain in those dying or even helps to cure cancer. They want weed to be legal medicinally as a stepping stone for complete legality. So they can get high. If weed did all of that but didn't get people high, no one would care. It's sad actually

It's safer to play in traffic than it is to drink a gallon of bleach, but does it really matter?

And your post isn't accurately informing anyone: Marijuana can be addictive, it can't cure cancer, and I'm pretty sure it does the opposite of "growing" brain cells.

Marijuana isn't too bad compared to a lot of things and I've tried it myself, but when people claim that it's harmless, they're delusional.

Pretty much sums up my opinion on this. It's not too bad, but it's not good for you either. And it most certainly does not cure cancer, lmfao.

Marijuana causes cognitive deficits from the outset, and has negatives consequences for primarily, the endocrine and circulatory systems in the long term.

Yeah, in some ways it's not as bad as alcohol but to say it's okay is just being delusional.

In recent studies it does show it grows brain cells.

It really don't make you dumb either.

I know several straight A students that smoke all the time.

Pretty ironic since weed causes hunger xD

I know several straight A students that can't do basic multiplication in their head and barely pass their standardized tests. Your point?

My point, any dimwit can succeed in school and many intelligent people have done poorly grade wise. Grades don't measure intelligence.

Does intelligence really matter anyway in these days? Really your grades and scores are the only thing that matters in this days of age regardless if you're intelligent or not.

This definitely isn't true. There are countless successful people who did poorly in school. At the same time, there are plenty of people who aren't successful that did exceedingly well in school. "The luck of the draw" applies to our lives more than some people seem to realize.

Lel. That's what's wrong with the school system now, focusing too much on on grades and not the actual learning.

I would have to agree. My previous school year, I took a few advanced classes hoping to boost my GPA and learn more. I swear to God, every damn day I heard: "Study up, guys! This will be on the AP test in May.". And if something was confirmed not to be on our exam, we'd skip it completely. The school system, like many other public programs, are indeed corrupt.

Intelligence is all humans have. We lose that, and we lose everything.

It's like a production line, to make humans "ready" for life, i.e: paid slavery.

Zero deaths in history is bullshit, it's legal where I live and people have overdosed. I see it on the news every once in a while.

Especially with the edibles that have the doses in there.

You can't OD on it (unless it's laced). The amount you would need is ridiculous, about 1500 pounds of marijuana within about fifteen minutes is required to induce a lethal response.
