420 my friend..........I got off morphine, fentanyl, oxycoton, and numerous other narcotics.....I went to the "pain management clinic" for almost nine years.......I asked about THC pills.....no F'ing way.......yet they gave me 50 mg morphine, 5-10mg morphine (that I could take when ever) along with a faulty fentanyl patch. I took a total of 23 different medications every two days......mostly pain and muscle relaxers. I decided one day that I was done with them......I weaned myself from the narcotics in 18 days.......I started drinking again and resumed my flight of fancy with 420........some days I have a lot of pain.........it is better than laying on the ground having dry heaves because of a faulty fentanyl patch over dosing me.......I don't care if they legalize or not.......being a petty criminal is better than over dosing and dying because of prescribed drugs at 55..........LEGALIZE!

You ain't looking to damn hard.......Goggle..........I don't need any evidence....I have first hand experience........
I have experience quitting prescribed narcotics.........unless you have experienced chronic pain you should hold your tongue.......they never stop hurting.......they might endure other symptoms but they don't just "start" experiencing pain............
Keep supporting big pharma.......the trouble in this country is the government involvement in medicine. I am 64......I don't have 25-35 yrs while the government slow walks cannabis studies.......I don't need a study......I have my own trial going on and it helps....... I have a grandson (18yrs old) that is alive today only because he was able to get cancer treatment in England when he was nine that he couldn't get in the USA because...........not enough trials......screw trials......
The misinformation is coming from the nay sayers
There are many plants that don't "come from the ground" genius........let's see if I can give you a couple of examples.......orchids...... Spanish moss..... which is a variety of air plant...there are many more.......is that good enough or do I need to look up scientific identities for them.........I know how anal you are about proof......that is why I am surprised you used such a flimsy statement.
When I was a teenager pot was cool....
Smoking anything for any supposed health benefits seems stupid...
Pretty sure IF cannibis oil was the miracle cure then some greedy ass at Big Pharm would be selling it already at a jacked up price...
And yet even I think pot should be legal...

This alone is the strongest case for legalizing pot.
How did Prohibition work out? What were the results?
People who wanted to drink found places to drink. A criminal underground was created to meet the demand for alcohol. Same thing with the "illegal" drug industry.
SOMEBODY is going to meet the demand. The only variable is if those somebodies will be cartels/gangs or legitimate businesses. Will we spend our money continuously fighting the laws of nature that will never be won or using those same laws to generate revenue that can be used to treat those who abuse the product?
Totally antidotal but my daughter had a dog that was pathetic. Besides being diabetic and nearly deaf, he also was severely arthritic and stiff. A vet suggested trying cannabis oil which was legal in Indiana at that time. Within a few days that same dog was active and running...muscles relaxed so that he could walk normally. Several months later the state changed their laws and she could no longer get the elixir that had worked so well. Once her supply was exhausted the dog returned to his pre-treated state. Soon thereafter the decision was made to put him down.
Selling cures doesnt make big money. Selling treatments do.
Are you saying that marijuana is a cure, not a treatment, for, well, anything?
Are you familiar with the new curative anti-viral medications for Hepatitis C? They're pretty damned expensive and a big money-maker for the companies that provide them.
I’m not going to scour the internet for something that I know I’ve read to prove something to you who had questioned every point made in favor
Nope, I'm not questioning every point made in favor of it.
I'm questioning the unfounded claims of its magical curative properties. And you keep making more of them.
If it wasn’t for those damn drunks always trying to get their buzz on. I support dry counties eventhough a majority of people don’t. <——— your bad argument in reverse.
Look, I lived a wild life as a young man. You name it, I’ve tried it with the exception of heroin. I haven’t done a “hard” drug in 15 years. I never was addicted to anything but nicotine and was teetering on the brink of alcoholism (gateway drugs).
I know what most legal and illegal drugs do. Of all of them, including booze, pot is the safest without the possibility of killing you after one night.
Heroin? Potentially lethal
Cocaine? Potentially lethal
MDMA aka ecstasy? Potentially lethal
Meth? Potentially lethal
Prescription or OTC drugs? Potentially lethal
Alcohol? Potentially lethal?
Marijuana? Potentially hungry
Simply put, I drink maybe 4 times a year. I would smoke a doob tomorrow if it was legal. You couldn’t pay me enough money to ever touch the crazy stuff again.
I don't feel safe around people working/driving/trusting folks under the influence of drugs period.
Smoking pot is just as bad if not worse than smoking cigarettes, no sane person can look you straight in the eye and justify spending billions trying to eradicate one only to replace with another equal to it and say that make sense.
People under the influence of pot cannot hold most jobs thus making them dependent on the rest of the tax payers.
First, thanks for sharing your experiences, I always like to read and learn.
I nor anyone else in thread (that I saw) has promoted alcohol. My personal advice is to stay away from all drugs if possible.
You're statement concerning the obvious flaws with other drugs is the same logic, or lack of that the pro pot crowd has always used. Seriously it's like saying "hey, we are doing one bad thing so let's do two" No one can make a case for pot so that leaves trying to divert and create arguments about other stuff while ignoring the topic.
I have zero problems with it being used for medical purposes, we all know there are a lot worse things being used daily. That said if you can't separate the two then it's going to be hard to support either.
I would continue to smoke it but I’m just saying if someone was dead set against smoking anything there are other ways to get the effects.m
My point is that we spent all that money supposedly because we couldn't afford the health risk/cost and this would re-enter the same exact risk to everyone all over again. People are going to smoke it because it's the easiest and cheapest.
This is just a really idiotic thing to say.
There are thousands of hard working people that smoke pot. Professionals, teachers, lawyers, etc. You'd be surprised.
Now these aren't the type of folks that would get high while or before working, but to imply that no one that smokes weed is a productive member of society is short-sighted at best and downright ignorant at worst.
I talked to a guy that has a license to grow in Paris, KY........if they was serious about doing studies then they would use the stuff that helps me......not some ditch weed that has .03%THC or less.....use something that has 25-28%THC......
I would prefer to eat gummies John...........or brownies or infused butter to cook with.....
I know a nurse practitioner that smokes/deals, doctors, a airline pilot, a FAA district supervisor and a couple respiratory therapist...it isn't just construction workers like the anti canabis crowd would like you to believe......construction workers don't make enough to turn cannabis in the multi billion dollar business......top cash crop in KY.
Two of the best extrusion line operators I worked with over the years smoked. I never saw them even remotely close to high while on the job.They were great operators, knew their processes inside out, were always one of the first to jump in and help someone who was having trouble with their line, they didn't lay out of work, and they got along with everyone. I can't say nearly the same for several guys with alcohol problems that I worked with.
