Well, Science Daily disagrees with you. And you DO realize your link takes you the "The Joint Blog", right?

So you didint read it? That was the point of using that site, b/c it said the study was done by the national institute of health? Day stoopid two?

You DO realize that using the cell phone while driving IS illegal in most states, don't you? No. I do NOT want to make cell phones illegal...but I DO want texting and the use of cell phones while driving illegal. (As it is...because...it causes accidents) Thanks for making my point. You are being silly. You saying eating while driving causes accidents, so I want to make food illegal. PLEASE. I think you know what the point is, yet you are distorting it. There is no use talkign with you if you are going to puposely misrepresent what I am saying.

---

No that is your arguement, weed makes you get into wrecks so lets keep it illegal b/c of that. Why cant you make driving while high illegal? Like with alcohol, instead of wanting to keep it illegal? Go back and re read what I wrote, I think it went way over your head.

I did not bring the Bible into this conversation. Some of the pro weed group did. However, the verse you are talkign about is grains for food....NOT marijuana. I'm sorry. I won't respond to any more of your posts. You distort and twist everything to make a point. You use pro marijuana blogs as reliable sources instead of scientific studies and you just plain lie about my arguments. there is no use talking or debating with you.

Dude let me educate you about the weed plant. The males and hermaphrodites and sometimes the females (to a far lesser extent) produce the seeds. Hemp seeds are a SUPERFOOD! Look it up on google, how healthy eating hemp seeds are. So now you can decide what the bible means, it said seed bearing herb or fruit bearing tree. IF the hemp seed is so GREAT FOR YOU (better than flax seeds, and all other seeds), then it falls in that category. Now on to the fruits. The 'fruit' is the part that gets you high, you can smoke it, vaporize it, eat it and even juice it (which is the healthiest way of all). So there, that again fall under the cagatogry of fruits. In no way is any of these bad for your health, as you are more likely to overdose from drinking too much water before you will ever overdose from smoking too much weed.

I guess you are no spin doctor. And I wasnt even quoting or replying to YOU when i wrote that. Whoeever wrote what I quoted, was who I was replying to. Geez get off your high horse.

Is driving while high your only argument
When was the last time someone got a DUI for weed anyway

DawgsLyfe, why do you keep bringing up heroin and meth when responding to me? We are talking about MJ. It is not the same. MJ is a plant that does not need to be processed like heroin(poppy plant) or cocaine(coca leaves). The "high" is not the same. There are strains with super low THC and high CBD content that have been shown to alleviate debilitating seizures. Do you want to deny these children who are being helped by this medicine the right to life b/c of your moral stance and your fear of people driving high? I also noticed you didn't respond to my post about hemp. What is your stance on industrial hemp? And be aware, our founding fathers grew it and said to plant it everywhere. It was the biggest cash crop of our budding new country. I know people like you. Most of my family thinks like you. You take things to absurd lengths in your argument against it. I never said cocaine and heroin should be legal. Perhaps we could take the LE resources fighting weed to fight harmful, hard drugs. But like I said, heroin addiction and overdoses have spiked since we invaded Afhanistan, you know, the place where 90% of the world's heroin comes from. Interesting, wouldn't you say. I can argue all day with you about this b/c I am informed on the issue and you obviously are not.

dawgsjw, that is a great video. thanks for posting.

Did, or did you not say that weed does no harm? So....yes. It IS the same thing.

And you ignore the positives. Like inhibiting cancer growth and treating epilepsy

No I don't. I have acknowledged several times that there are some legitimate uses for marijuana. Which brings me to point #2. You aren't reading a word I have written. So....why bother arguing with you?

dawgfan, you are right, that dude has nothing to say, thats why hes done 'debating'. We are both replying to his debate, yet he ignores all the facts we present and keeps coming back about how driving high is bad. Yeah well guess what, they can make harsher penalties for driving high like with alcohol. But no, he ignores this and tries to relate coke or meth to it somehow.

He must watch Bill O'rielly show where Bill tries to relate smoking weed to teens texting. It made no sense and there was no relation, yet that was another reason for him to keep it illegal. Some ppl say anything.

Seriously? So...you only care about the children, right? YOU wouldn't smoke it if it were legal.


So why can't you answer one simple question?

Have you ever driven after smoking marijuana?

I would smoke it
But at the same time it would benefit those in medical need

Also marijuana maybe addictive but it is nowhere near as bad as cigarettes

And I have never got behind the wheel while drunk or stoned

In fact LINK

The majority of pot smokers do not develop a marijuana addiction, but some smokers do develop all the symptoms of an actual addiction after chronic marijuana use.

I'll tell =you what. I'm going to give you guys one more shot. here are links to numerous scientific studies. Refurte them if you can....but don't give me any more "I didn't get addicted, so it isn't addictive" arguments. taht's just plain infantile.

THC is a relatively harmless drug for the human body but the problem is that to get THC into their systems, most people choose to smoke it and that’s where it can become dangerous. Scientific analyses of marijuana smoke, cited in Iversen’s book, have identified at least 6,000 of the same chemicals in marijuana smoke as are present in tobacco smoke. Smoked marijuana and smoked tobacco are chemically very similar, the main difference between them being the THC in marijuana and the nicotine in tobacco.

Mar. 1, 2012 — A major downside of the medical use of marijuana is the drug's ill effects on working memory, the ability to transiently hold and process information for reasoning, comprehension and learning.

Studies further suggest that marijuana is a general "immunosuppressant" whose degenerative influence extends beyond the respiratory system. Regular smoking has been shown to materially affect the overall ability of the smoker?s body to defend itself against infection by weakening various natural immune mechanisms, including macrophages (a.k.a. "killer cells") and the all-important T-cells. Obviously, this suggests the conclusion, which is well-supported by scientific studies, that the use of marijuana as a medical therapy can and does have a very serious negative effect on patients with pre-existing immune deficits resulting from AIDS, organ transplantation, or cancer chemotherapy, the very conditions for which marijuana has most often been touted and suggested as a treatment. It has also been shown that marijuana use can accelerate the progression of HIV to full-blown AIDS and increase the occurrence of infections and Kaposi?s sarcoma. In addition, patients with weak immune systems will be even less able to defend themselves against the various respiratory cancers and conditions to which consistent marijuana use has been linked, and which are discussed briefly under "Respiratory Illnesses."

Now. if you want to argue with Harvard, and Science daily, then have at it.

Uhh I can find Harvard studies that are pro weed and they aren't from the 90's
