Why do people think that marijuana is bad and alcohol, cigarettes and prescription drugs are ok?
Cannabis is not addictive. You can not overdose on it. The carcinogens are from the chemically treated paper and the damage to the lungs when smoked is far less than cigarettes and smog. It does not kill braincells. That study was falsified and tested on monkeys who were suffocated to death and the government omitted the evidence that proved that their statement on marijuana was wrong. It helps cut tumor growth in half. It helps with morning sickness and promotes a heat bluer birthweight and brain activity in the womb. It actually causes you brain function to increase. It's helps with eating disorders, chemo therapy, pain, mental disorders, and a range of many other health issues. It helps stimulate creativity. And hemp, which does not produce any product to get you "high", can be used for paper, rope, clothes, lotion, and much much more. Just having hemp alone can stimulate our economy. Hemp and cannabis were wince this countries biggest cash crops. But it's so dangerous? No.

While I don't find it "bad" as a drug. I will say that anything you "smoke" and inhale the "smoke" into your lungs isn't good for them.

It IS mind altering just as alcohol and presc
ription drugs. We have enough problems with people escaping reality these days. Who wants to be dependent on someone who smokes pot all the time? I don't want to employ them, have them watch children or be father to children who need them present to raise them. It's just not as easy as you make it sound. No More Drugs for America!

I was okay with what you were saying until you hit "morning sickness" and "brain activity in the womb". Anybody that would smoke weed or cigarettes, drink alcohol, or take any medication unless prescribed directly by their doctor at that time, while pregnant, is irresponsible and has no business being a parent.

Actually in other countries there are studies and actually doctors who prescribe marijuana to their pregnant patients. The studies showed that it does in fact help with all of those things said above. So yes they so deserve to be mothers. Alcohol and cigarettes have proven to be harmful but marijuana has proved to helpful. Look up the studies.

People don't think that they're okay. They more than likely know the consequences and simply don't care.
I also have to say that what you said isn't entirely true about marijuana. For one, it does have addictive properties. When THC reaches your brain, it replaces dopamine, which plays many important roles in how a person functions. Ingesting it heavily over a long period of time causes the brain to produce less and less dopamine, causing it to become more dependent on THC to act out the functions that the missing dopamine provided.
As for the carcinogens, they come directly form the plant, and in fact are more present in marijuana than in cigarette tobacco. There is no correlation between weed and cancer, though, aside from the anti-cancer agents that it also produces.
As for increasing brain function, I don't see how that's possible. My cognition is horrible when I'm baked.
Anyway, weed is awesome.Like (1)

I think partly because marijuana began it's history in america, being used by black slaves, then many decades later, was used by hippies and anarchists etc. It was made illegal in the 70's and people started classifying it as a "hard" drug, although the opposite is true. It is mainly demonized for the simple fact that it is illegal. It's rediculous, since millions of people have died from overdoses of legal alcohol.
Guess how many have died from an overdose of marijuana?........ ZEROLike (1)

Those are accepted drugs. People are used to them. Marijuana comes with around 100yrs of stigma. Time to let it go and start using hemp and marijuana as the productive all natural plants that they are.

They want to brainwash everyone against it because it is GOOD for you!
It DOESN'T harm but instead helps you so "they" don't want it anywhere near us.
Plus they can't control it since it's natural...
(only to name a couple of reasons ;) )
