    Quote If the federal government on this subject, marijuana, and how dangerous it is has no credibility because of the lack of serious empirical work it threatens our whole policy's credibility.
    You think?

    Prediction: 20 years from now cannabis will be considered a new "miracle" substance. With over 200 (some say more) active ingredients, the research possibilities are over the moon. Preliminary findings so far are very promising. The two that attract my attention are:
    1. Smoking the stuff halts and REVERSES cognitive decline that occurs with aging.
    2. Ingesting the stuff INCREASES lung function.
    These two findings run counter to the prevailing drug paradigm and accepted logic. My oh my.

    And, big pharma despises cannabis. That tells me there is something beneficial there.

    As for the high one gets from cannabis it is much ado about very little.

    herb that can curb heroine pain from withdrawal and wean them off. They make illegal what blacks have used to come off crack.Told ya'll the crap is bassackwards. Pot allows people with anxiety from the world's dirt crap to function without going off. you think those mass shooters would have thought to kill innocent children in schools? NOPE, they would have been dealing with their anxieties calmer and been seeking food to snack on. Seriously, there's not even a withdrawal from it, and the once nastiest people who have bully issues actually sit and listen to others going through their bullying and sometimes even find a friend and change. It allows the otherside of the brain not ego to balance thoughts rationally.
    Their loss in the rural, in overdoses and robberies, if they don't get it by now. HOW DO YOU THINK MOST OF US GOT OFF CRACK? THE OPPRESSION THAT LED US THERE IN THE WORLD IS STILL THERE, but we aren't participating in funding their child sex trade and prostitution and "harmful drugs destroying families of government supplied drug market.. simple as that.

    There is abundant, long standing clear medical evidence that Cannabis is extremely effective in treating severe epilepsy - cases that are resistant to present drug treatments. There is substantial empirical evidence that Cannabis oil, concentrated, can treat cancers - we do not have to wait 20 years, it is already widely known that Cannabis is a very useful, effective plant with benign side effects. No overdose deaths have ever been reported, the prohibition of Cannabis was entirely a political/economic strategy. I'm pretty certain most people on this forum would be aware of all of these things.
