Vitamins and Weed

[standswfist]

Vitamins are good. Weed...Isn't there something like thc involved? A chemical, right? Think I would advise against it.
Sorry for the mispost on my dad. Never discussed this much with him. He gave it up years ago. Your post got me curious and I had to ask him.
For the record, I had to post it.

well my personal standpoint is that it has been shown to be helpful for cancer patients (especially regarding appetite) and also with neurological problems. it should most definitely be legal for medical purposes. has been shown to be helpful for things like MS, Parkinson's, and ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). it is not physically addictive. they never will make it legal but if they did, should treat like they do alcohol. one should not work high, drive high etc. cop could say, "Sir, i pulled you over for driving 20 miles UNDER the speed limit". could do sobriety tests for it. think of the tax revenue! what i would be afraid of though is companies putting toxins in too, to keep one hooked like they do cigarettes. for medical use, they have developed THC pills. have you ever noticed the abundance of drug commericals for prescription products? pay close attention to the side effects, they are often worse then the condition they try to treat. you cannot advertise cigarettes on TV or alcohol, but you can a prescription drug. this makes no sense. it should be outlawed a doctor can tell you of medicine options. of course i also think that advertising targeted at children should be outlawed, as they do not have the judgment an adult does. anyway, my two cents.
