One day he did not feel well. Went to the doctor, died 2 weeks later. Another friend`s brother developed non-hotchkins (Sp) lymphoma, Yes a life-long pot head. Studies are emerging that it can cause pychosis in teens. Looking forward to seeing how Those studies pan out. Putting/smoking a sticky substance into ones body cannot be good. But then, you have to die of something. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charon 4,943 Posted October 10, 2018 The only ones that believe cannabis oils cure anything are stoners. Same cunts that want it legalised. Fuck off to California then youz wankers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One turned out to be a cannabis factory- at least it numbed the pain 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have this silly theory about cancer that it is the smoke that gives you cancer not the food itself. So meat gives you cancer because you eat it cooked, particularly food that is eaten on barbecues, whereas stuff you eat raw (fruit, vegetables, nuts) doesn't. Smoking obviously therefore gives you cancer because you are inhaling smoke (if my theory is correct smoking paper with nothing in it would give you cancer, the nicotine is irrelevant) and hence smoking weed also gives you cancer. Cannabis oil is not smoked and therefore this could make all the difference. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do know that ancient Stone-age man in Europe, especially Scandinavia, did suffer from lung sicknesses caused by their cooking conditions at the time. They inhaled in the smoke in their close living quarters. Good point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John Key 747 Posted October 11, 2018 We have alcohol and know that it causes death. The most damage I have seen scientific study of marijuana causing is a few IQ points if teenagers smoke a lot. There are more harmful drugs, bigger wars to fight. There should be legal highs for adults like marijuana that aren't harmful, because otherwise we find ways to do it anyway. My parents tell me similar stories of their marijuana friends dying early of lung cancer, and I asked them if they were into harder stuff, the usual answer was that they at least smoked ciggies too. If alcohol is legal then marijuana should be too, considered there's more than one way to take this natural devil. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
En Passant 3,741 Posted October 12, 2018 Not radical enough. Legalise the lot for adults. Just under 50% of the entire US prison population is directly drug related (source). And that's not counting offences committed to pay for drugs or violence surrounding the supply because everyone involved is by definition operating illegally. The total budget for US prisons in 2016 was just over 7 billion dollars (source). On a pro-rata basis that's about 3.5 billion dollars annually for drug related crime, again not counting crimes committed peripheral to drug use. Spend some of the money on education about the dangers of drug use (as is done with alcohol). Spend the rest on healthcare or housing or parks or space programmes.....not on locking up non-violent offenders who now won't be offenders anyway. US sources used as easier to find in the 20 seconds I spent looking. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
