does anyone smoke cannabis ? i am a supporter of it only thing i really support and think it can help people emotionally and physically ... if you dont believe me do your research.. i believe that a balanced blunt or joint once a while isnt bad and helps someone its like when people drink a bit of wine.. (please no judgment or insults towards me ) yes i know in the bible it says we arent supposed to do drugs but i dont consider cannabis a drug .. god gaves us plants ..
Wooohooo!!!!
Old thread needs to be bumped. I notice you are young - and I notice most of the older people replying (not to generalize ya'll as there are some exceptions) are parroting the Cannabis Propaganda out at some level.
It is good that more young people are realizing the what a bum deal this plant has gotten. Because it competes with a number of industries (most notably the pharma and alcohol industries) - of course it gets a bad rap! It's in direct competition with certain vested interests profits! Not to mention it could replace a lot of paper products and plastic products as well! So um - HELLO! the fight is not going to stop against it - as it has the potential to destroy way too many monopolies. You think that kind of influence isn't going to make into television commercials and whispered into the ears of your law makers and enforcers? Duh! Of course it is!
Would I use it, or do I use it? Oh yes! Not very often, though. I don't care what people say - pot is just not physically addictive. You can get withdrawal symptoms from all kinds of pharma meds and even from alcohol if you drink hard and long enough - but you will not get them from pot. In my younger days I used to use it all the time and when I felt the need to quit it was the easiest thing to quit.
Smoking pot does not ruin your lungs - the smoke actually helps protect your lungs. But if you don't believe that, or don't want to start toking - you don't need to. There are plenty of ways of ingesting it that do not involve smoking and actually give your body a fuller spectrum of the nutrients in the plant than smoking does.
There are people who do not like/want the high - the good news about Cannabis is that with the right knowledge - it's the perfect Gentleman in every respect. There are not only strains that contain 0 to negligible THCA (converts to THC with heat/age) so that it can be ingested with 0 psychoactive effect - but even if you have a strain that has THCA - if you don't heat it or age it you can still consume it (raw) or in a (cold tincture) that won't get you high! In order for that to happen it has to be non-heated and not aged.
So where's the downside? Anyone who has done any research knows it helps in a lot of different ailments and is a super healthy plant. And you actually think that God made this plant with all these benefits only to instruct lawmakers to make it illegal?
Er when? Cannabis was widely legal in the USA prior to the 1930's! What happened - did God change His Mind??
Nah - it's been illegal for all the wrong reasons - and those reasons are almost all financial ones to help protect certain industries.
