Duuuddee... Pass the blunt...

Uh, no you physically cannot. It sounds like YOUR trying to deny it.


Because people are doing it anyways, it's less dangerous than tobacco and alcohol, and it could increase revenue to the government.


Overdose of alcohol means alcohol poisoning, which means new liver or death. It's probably gonna be the last one, livers are hard to come by. And all you have to do is research "Benefits of Marijuana" and there you go, hundreds of different articles that argue benefits of marijuana in small doses. And even not so small doses.


So don't smoke it. Eat it, or put it in tea or something, I dunno.
Now, smoking tobacco, yes, it does. Lung Cancer, and all that. So does alcohol, it kills you. Liver poisoning, unclear thinking(leads to drunk driving, fights, so on)

if you want evidence that its not so bad for you...google it...its not that hard.

people post whatever they want online...scientist will lie to increase their pay (anyone will)
it makes more sense to believe that its bad for u than not.

key word ARGUE...

if it wasnt bad for u then it wouldnt be illegal...plain and simple.

tobacco, maybe
alchohol, nope

Physically cannot what?
And so what if I want it to be wrong if im right?

the dates dont matter cuz i got them from the Ebook version of a book that was published recently (so its still valid)

You're simply wrong in this instance. Just because something is made available as an Ebook version it does not mean that whatever its content may be is either true or current simply because of that.

and to the last part of your post: it sounds like you dont WANT to belive it.

No, how about it is because I don't suffer from these acclaimed delusional or pathological problems. Or maybe because I know several people who, by this man's claims, should be labeled as delusional and pathological members of society and are not.

alchohol can be bad for u if u overdose, but studies say that smaller amounts can be good for u

Alcohol is not healthy in general, so to say that its bad if you overdose is a misleading statement.

This is my last time speaking to you, and by the way at this moment in your life, you are a naive fool.

DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ALCOHOL? Alcohol is infinitely more dangerous than marijuana. You need to read up some more on pot my friend.

and i'm wondering why people would want more thing on the market that could harm them-regardless of how it makes them feel.
and yes alchohol can be bad for u if u overdose, but studies say that smaller amounts can be good for u (funny, they dont mention that about weed)

Oh, the ignorance.

Also, there are dozens of ways to ingest marijuana other than smoking it. Yes, smoking any substance is bad for you but marijuana is one of the least damaging substances you can smoke. Sorry for the rage posting.

I agree with Cosmical's naive comment.

You're ridiculous, ITS FROM THE 70'S AND 80'S ITS NOT NEW BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN RE-RELEASED! You clearly have no idea how any of this works.

dude i have the ebook copy AND the hard copy (released 2005)

maybe i am...what do u care

[OldManJenkins]

Alcohol is not good for you. Period. Some scientists say it can have some negligible positive health effects in very low quantities.

[Cosmical El Amarna]

dude i have the ebook copy AND the hard copy (released 2005)

NONE OF THAT MATTERS! THE CONTENT WITHIN IT IS FROM THE 70'S AND 1981. This is really simple, I don't understand at all how you do not understand this.

How does it make more sense? Without listing facts, since by your argument, any fact isn't a fact at all, just an opinion/lie, please explain to me why it makes more sense for it to be unhealthy than healthy.

if it wasnt bad for u then it wouldnt be illegal...plain and simple.

Hm. I know a whole bunch of things that were illegal, that are now legal, and we generally consider them good.
Like the right for any race/any gender to vote. It was illegal for, say blacks and women, to vote, but not now.
Also, government tried outlawing alcohol once. Does that mean it's bad too?

tobacco, maybe
alchohol, nope

You're retarded if you honestly believe alcohol isn't as dangerous, if not more dangerous than marijuana.
I'll give you one fact: no one has died from marijuana. Ever. In 5000 years of history. More than can be said than alcohol. My uncle died of alcohol poisoning.
Now, people who mix marijuana with other medicines die, or people that choke on their own vomit die, but that isn't directly marijuana's fault.
Okay, here's a second:
In order to die from marijuana overdose, you'd have to smoke/consume 1500 POUNDS of weed. Oh yeah, in less than 15 minutes. Ready, Set, Go?

Physically cannot what?
And so what if I want it to be wrong if im right?

All right, so you can overdose on marijuana. HOWEVER, overdosing on it has no fatal effects. Ever. At all.

Marijuana became illegal because of the competition with other products such as cotton.

A plain and simple way of thinking shows that you have no critical thinking skills, and critical thinking is important.


Tabbacco isn't really the problem, it's the extra products put into the cigarettes.
Alcohols effect the body much worth than marijuana, to the liver directly. And it's done much quicker.

I'm not going to say weed is the greatest thing in the world, but it was helped much more than it's hindered. Weed isn't anything like heroine, or other class A drugs.

Personally, If I were in pain I'd rather smoke a bowl, than take a pain reliever pill.

[OldManJenkins]

I dont there are any medications that marijuana cant be taken with without ill effects. I might be wrong though. I mean if you smoke a bowl and then pop 30 vicodin you'll die but it wont have anything to do with the weed you smoked. And marijuana cant make you choke on your own vomit....

@Heldigunner, while cigarettes are made much worse by added chemicals, pure tobacco is still bad for you.

Eh, I don't know exact ones, but:
"An exhaustive search of the literature finds no deaths induced by marijuana. The US Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN) records instances of drug mentions in medical examiners' reports, and though marijuana is mentioned, it is usually in combination with alcohol or other drugs. Marijuana alone has not been shown to cause an overdose death." http://www.drugwarfacts.org/cms/node/58
Oh, look, it mentions alcohol. I guess it doesn't mix well with marijuana, huh?

[OldManJenkins]

Not really. The buzz from the alcohol pretty much cancels out the weed buzz.

I 100% disagree, it amplifies it. Perhaps it varies from person to person.

[Brutaka]

I 100% disagree, it amplifies it. Perhaps it varies from person to person.

And according to the page i posted, it can probably kill you.

[OldManJenkins]

Yeah, I hear other people say that too. Im just not into it. It might have something to do with the fact that whenever I drink I almost always get super wasted. I just cant seem to just have a couple beers.

Where on that page did it say that, Brutaka? I skimmed it but I didnt see anything.

[Heldigunner1]

And according to the page i posted, it can probably kill you.

Of course it can, but just about every has the potential to kill you. Sitting down for to long can kill you.

[Brutaka]

Where on that page did it say that, Brutaka? I skimmed it but I didnt see anything.

It was just listing that death from marijuana can only happen if you combine with something else, like alcohol or other drugs. The data was extrapolated from all the drug related deaths tallied by DAWN.

EDIT:

Of course it can, but just about every has the potential to kill you. Sitting down for to long can kill you.

Eating marijuana by itself, or drinking it like tea, however, cannot. As has already been said.

Touche sir. But I can imagine, it won't taste that good.

[OldManJenkins]

Just smoking a joint wont kill you either. Except for maybe if you had really bad pneumonia or something. It just has the potential for ill health effects just like smoking anything else.

Also, I bet if you drank enough weed tea you could die. There was one lady who died from drinking too much water.
