[QUOTE=Lankist;15909246]Studies like this are fucking annoying when they're turned into "legalize it" arguments. Idiots are arguing the wrong fucking point. If we legalize weed because of this, what do you think is going to happen? Some fucks somewhere are going to re-research the SHIT out of the subject, find something contradictory and have it banned again. If you support the legalization of weed for medical benefits you are supporting it for the wrong reasons. It should be enough that we live in a free society, and in such we should have the right to control our bodies, our intake and our lifestyles. Nobody should have to do this obscure research when a legit reason is right fucking there.[/QUOTE] It already is enough that we live in a free society and we have basic rights that weed should be legalised, these other reasons have been explained because weed is still illegal. There's more than enough reasons for legalisation, it's just that all of them are being ignored by the government because there's money to be made from it being illegal... [editline]07:10PM[/editline] [QUOTE=whenisitover;15929240]This man speaks the truth Anyways, who cares if it's illegal? You pay like a $50 fine or something in CA for posession of 24g or less which is quite a lot of weed and not that much $$$. And you only get caught if you're really stupid like walk down the street smokin a reefer[/QUOTE] Yes, but we shouldn't accept this either. It's only truly legal when there is NO penalty for smoking it, and when it is legal for businesses to sell it.

How many people do you think will be recreational users compared to medicinal users? Recreational users, of course, vastly outnumber the rest. That's the biggest issue. That's the biggest demographic. Everything else is ancillary, you only need to bring up medicinal marijuana if all forms of marijuana are legal EXCEPT for medicinal use. Acknowledging ancillary benefits convolutes the issue and only dampens the legitimate, priority case of the majority. You can't deny that the biggest demographic and the biggest issue in marijuana reform is centered around recreational use. That should be the focus of the argument for legalization, and if you can't come up with a good enough argument for the primary issue facing reform, you shouldn't be trying to argue anything at all. I'm not saying medicinal use isn't important. I'm saying it isn't nearly as important as recreational use, and should only become the focus when the issues facing recreational use have been solved. But when you ignore the heart of the issue because you're too afraid of saying "This is a free country and my body is my property," you have defeated yourself.

[QUOTE=Lankist;15916650]While we're at it why don't we just assign people jobs based on their physical and mental capabilities. Sure, it completely destroys individual choice, but it sure as hell will advance the country economically![/QUOTE] I don't see any problem with that.

[QUOTE=Sh33p;15937155]I don't see any problem with that.[/QUOTE] So you don't see anything wrong with a Nazi mentality in country over people.

[QUOTE=Conscript;15922958]There's nothing wrong with wikipedia if it's not about a controversial subject (like the science of marijuana). You're just looking for troll ammo[/QUOTE] I beg to differ.

Lankist basically won the argument with his first post.

[QUOTE=HK-100;15937239]I beg to differ.[/QUOTE] Wikipedia is as valid as it's sources is.

Wasn't Heroine suppose to cure Morphine addiction? :v:

[QUOTE=Saxon;15940204]Wasn't Heroine suppose to cure Morphine addiction? :v:[/QUOTE]Methadone is normally used to treat both morphine and heroin addiction.

SO take more drugs to kill your another drug addiction sounds awesome.

[QUOTE=Aznsniper811;15940500]SO take more drugs to kill your another drug addiction sounds awesome.[/QUOTE] That is generally how addiction is treated, yes. Taking a non-addictive drug to combat an addictive drug rather than taking the same addictive drug in gradually lower doses sounds like a plan to me.

[QUOTE=Aznsniper811;15940500]SO take more drugs to kill your another drug addiction sounds awesome.[/QUOTE] Yeah, except the replacement drug isn't addictive, and far less harmful than the addictive one. [editline]04:56PM[/editline] fuck, ninja'd

[QUOTE=Catdaemon;15940568]non-addictive drug[/QUOTE] This is not possible.

[QUOTE=Sams Brume;15942105]This is not possible.[/QUOTE] Of course it is.

[QUOTE=psot;15942133]Of course it is.[/QUOTE] By definition, it isn't.

If people can get addicted to WoW then you can get addicted to THC /end of argument

Doesn't this seem like something we should... know already? [editline]01:09PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Saxon;15942824]If people can get addicted to WoW then you can get addicted to THC /end of argument[/QUOTE] I'm addicted to both :<

[QUOTE=Billiam;15929287][url]http://drugwarfacts.org/cms/?q=node/30[/url][/QUOTE] Prove it.

C'mon, weed is probably the safest thing you can do... besides the smoke all you do is sit on a couch.

[QUOTE=lazyguy;15945792]Prove it.[/QUOTE] You're either really stupid or really stupid

[QUOTE=Uber|nooB;15943276]the rest of society is the victim of your crime when you smoke weed [/QUOTE] I know this isn't your opinion but this really isn't the case. If you're worried about your health being effected by weed, don't smoke it and just don't be around those that do.

[QUOTE=Billiam;15945830]C'mon, weed is probably the safest thing you can do... besides the smoke all you do is sit on a couch.[/QUOTE] so is doing heroin

[QUOTE=thisispain;15946260]so is doing heroin[/QUOTE] Meh, I've done weed pretty often, it doesn't make me jumpy or paranoid or hallucinate.

[QUOTE=Billiam;15946308]Meh, I've done weed pretty often, it doesn't make me jumpy or paranoid or hallucinate.[/QUOTE] how do you know you were on weed

[QUOTE=thisispain;15946654]how do you know you were on weed[/QUOTE] Same way person who does heroin can share experiences of having hallucinations?

[QUOTE=Billiam;15946857]Same way person who does heroin can share experiences of having hallucinations?[/QUOTE] they aren't real they're hallucinations

So long as I'm functional well, while not on weed, I'm fine.
