Marijuana

They wouldn't waste their time putting marijuanna in a puppy--it was either cocaine, meth or heroin in the puppy's. I know it was in a liguid form. And that is so sick for them to do stuff like that to those poor little puppy's.

I agree fatfamily, they should not be so cruel to animals! I saw this show on tv once where this guy put cocaine inside of breast implants and put them in girls so that he could get it into the us! I thought that was messed up.

It was heroin in the puppies for crying out loud. Marijuana is not a bad drug, but some people cannot use it because of psychological issues. Example-my best friend used to smoke every day, but then she couldnt anymore, because it made her feel really weird and out of touch, and just not right. She stayed in that mind set until she met a guy she really liked who smoked pot, and now she smokes again. It can be very psychological-it is not an addictive drug unless you rely on it mentally. There is no physical addiction. I've never heard of anyone having a marijuana withdrawal. I dont see in any way how pot can be bad. I think alcohol is way worse. Thats not to say anything, because I drink all the time. I smoke because it helps me relax when I get home, and it makes me feel good and it makes me happy. By the way, pot might make you feel like you are lazy but let me tell you my boyfriend gets motivated by it and I have found that I have never done a better job at anything then when I am high, because it really makes you focus. My boyfriend always says he is taking his focus factor. I am also a lot more intelligent when I smoke. My mind is open to so many more things when I am high. I am able to think conceptually rather than analytically and its very enlightening.

Thank you penelope! Exactly what I wanted to say!

It has given me anxiety and made me depressed again
i have started halucinating dont touch the stuff drugs are evil

Listen to the above if u do it now look at how u have changed it aint good for u and u know it kick it I did recently

I appreciate all the advice, but I explained myself above, and I believe pot makes me a better person in general, but I know many people that it makes them a much worse person. It is different for everyone. Its not nice to tell everyone that they had better stop doing something when you have no idea how it affects them. People that know people personally are better to give advice to them and if pot affects someone in a bad way, i'm sure someone that knows them has told them they have a problem when it comes to smoking weed. No one has ever told me that, in fact I have been told just the opposite. So what makes you think I will listen to someone who doesnt even know me. Not a chance. Wrong party, people. Oh and a response to the 2nd post up from mine-i am most certainly not trailer trash, and I do not classify people by that term either, because its kind of judgemental. Just because someone lives in a trailer, does not mean they are a bad person-maybe thats something you should think about.
Also-i have smoked pot for many many years and never once have hallucinated off it-sounds like the person you were getting it from wasnt very trustworthy.

I think it works differently for different people. Are you on a anti-depressent?

If that question was to me

no but maybe I should be

Well, my first post, but i'm not just joining because of this topic.

I have some mixed experiences with cannabis. Firstly

classic psychedelics include lsd (acid), psilocybin (magic mushrooms), mescaline (peyote), lsa (morning glory seeds) and also ayahuasca (yage). Some of the synthetic "club drugs" such as mdma (ecstasy), 2c-b (nexus), dom (stp) and 5-meo-dipt (foxy methoxy) which have much more specific action to particular aspects of the psyche are also classed as psychedelics, as well as cannabis (marijuana).

Not a depressant, hallucinogen doesnt mean you "trip" from smoking it. However, has anyone ever taken a high dose... I.E. Eating pot brownies, personally I have seen pink elephants, ingesting about 3.5grams. Also I dont get tired from pot, I do however get very tired and often depressed from alcohol.

Currently I just quit marijuana this month, had been tappering off it for 3 months. I didnt quit because it was ruining my life and I quit voluntarily. I had been smoking everyday for 13 years, I only smoked late at night, always held a full time job, never have been fired, and am a responsible adult. The amount of people on this thread listing government propaganda is ridiculous, how can you trust the damn government.

The potency of cannabis actually hasnt increased since the 1960's, just the methods of cultivation. For example, lets say in the 60's you grew some pot out in your yard, okay its probably not the greatest genetics, and you might not be much of an expert. It's going to have the same relative potency of todays "super pot" but your going to yield less, and it will most likely be more leafy. Today people grow indoors because of govt helicopters, anyone ever wonder why there are black helicopters all over in august? Indoors pot is grown under ideal conditions and manicured, cured and packaged more professionally. Which is a good thing, you dont have to smoke as much to get high.

Pot is not cut with meth or chemicals, thats bs, maybe some dealers do it for some odd reason, but when your trying to run a business, are you going to lace weed with other drugs that cost money? Heck no. Even if the bud has no potency someone can still sell it.

Most pot since 9/11 is grown within the country, how do I know? From experience, havent seen foreign bud, except from canada in years.

Many of you I agree with here on this subject which is why i'm chimming in. I have a wife a great job am a college grad, who working on his masters, i've done a lot of drugs, except the bad ones.... Crack. Meth...Coke.... Heroin.. Those should by all means erradicated from society.

The class issue is bs, whomever said that, you must live around a lot of rednecks, because i've smoked with many very successfull people, lawyers, doctors, police even. You dont know these people smoke, because they dont want you to know, you think a lawyer's gonna be yappin his mouth about his personal habits, when he could be disbared.

This is prohibition, smart cannabis users are just that, they dont get caught, they dont get put in the police blotter of the newspaper.

As for the effects; they vary from person to person and from the strain (type) of cannabis. There are thousands of breeds now, all having different medical purposes.

As for pychiatric conditions; marijuana has a tendency to bring out latent pychological disorders. Like if someone in your family was schizophrenic, then you better not smoke, because it may come out. The fact that the government lies and cover the actual effects and precautions, leads to these misconceptions. If they told the truth, a lot of people would know whether cannabis is for them or not.

I smoked personally first for insomnia, which worked great, then I developed serious back problems, which I also used cannabis to relieve, instead of harmfull and far far more addictive narcotics. I also used for anxiety, which yes some cannabis can give you anxiety, but mostly sativa dominant strains, indica strains are better for anxiety. Sativas are more suited to depression, since they act more as an upper, which is where pot can actually motivate. I quit because I need to have a drug test for a job and need to save some money for a move, but I quit, I feel just a great as before and no withdrawal.

No one should smoke or consume cannabis without research into your medical history, honesty is commended by doctors and many agree cannabis has uses, but you should talk to a doctor first.

I recognise that cannabis isnt a cure all, nor is for everyone, far from it. The fact that it is illicit leads to abuse, imagine if anti-depressants were illegal and on the black market. Kids snorting zoloft and taking effexor for a quick get me up. You'd have the same problems, mental disorders, overdoses, and the list could go on forever.

I'm done with my rant for now, probably only the people that dont condone the use, with actually read all of this, but it happens to be one of my specialties. Ask away.
If your wondering, i'm neither a cannabis dealer nor cultivator, just well education and informed on the subject and the legalization movement.
Sorry for any spelling error, i'm in a bit of a rush.

As a matter of fact-i do condone the use of marijuana and I read that whole post-i could read it again. It's refreshing to hear someone who knows what they are talking about around here. Thank you- I learned some things, too. I totally agree with you about why would someone lace their pot they were selling with other more expensive drugs-it's stupid, but I would imagine some people do that so their customers can get hooked on the laced drug and keep coming back for more. So maybe they are looking for more repeat customers. Just an idea.

Maruajuana is not a hallucinigentic it is a product of the hemp plant, cannabis sativa.

Ok einstein-learn how to spell, although pot doesnt make everyone hallucinate, it is still classified as a hallucinogenic. Like he said-if you have enough of it, it can make you hallucinate

Lol my mate sees smurphs when he has too much!!!
And I have seen 4 townies running towards me lol!

It does make u hallucinate
watch out when buying some dealers put stuff in it

"cannabis is an ancient hallucinogenic drug derived from the hemp plant. The plant is not indigenous to any particular area and may be found growing wild almost anywhere. The term "marijuana" commonly refers to the flowering tops and leaves of the plant cannabis sativa l, or to any part of the plant that induces psychic change. Ic 35-48-1-19 defines marijuana as "all parts of the plant genus cannabis, whether growing or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of the plant, including hashish and hash oil. " well, there's that fact cleared up. And to back up what I said earlier:
"while there is no evidence of consistent tolerance or physical dependence on the drug, there is evidence of strong psychological dependence. The subjective effects of the drug are dependent upon various factors, including the dosage, means of administration, the personality of the user and circumstances in which it is used. The degree of harmful long-term side effects of the drug is a source of debate among the scientific community. "

sorry for the attitude, I was just kidding around-didnt mean to offend you. And by the way, I know what a hypothesis is. Thank you

Thankyou for the appreciative reply penelope, I believe most americans are not ignorant on this subject by choice, but more or less subjects of a manipulative government, that is influenced highly by pharmacuetical companies, paper industries, energy conglomerates, and a drug war that gives police something to do and gives the military billions of dollars to wage secret wars.

Btw, its definetely is hallucinogenic, find me a reputable source that says otherwise, not including the dea website :wink:

Haha-exactly-you have it right on man. Thanks
