"...As a supporter of legal cannabis & someone who uses cannabis for medical reasons..."

Agreed, FRiend. We must, in the eyes of the public, separate folks like us from these damn filthy hippies who ruin it for everyone.

For any substance there is use and there is abuse.

I'd like the police to abuse hippies with a hickory shampoo!

She’s certainly got a Hillary-sized thirst for the hootch, if the size of that glass is any indication.

Every time I think of a “weed” activist, I think of someone like my brother — a wild-eyed zealot who goes on and on about how George Washington and Thomas Jefferson used to grow pot, and how its a natural plant, and how God wouldn’t have put it on the earth if He didn’t want people to smoke it, etc.

I suspect that Sessions and his staff were amused by these clowns more than anything else.

Um, if half the blood flow to the brain was cut off, the result would not be dementia, it would ne death.

Don’t be so dramatic, FRiend!

"78 to 350 joints a week = heavy smoker"
Is that even possible?

Thanks for sharing those links to studies.

Israel has a very advanced medical cannabis program for it’s senior citizens.

http://www.israel21c.org/israeli-medicine-goes-to-pot/

I figure if its safe enough for Israel to give to their seniors it’s safe enough to use in moderation like most everything.

It is. I figure if alcoholics can drink a case+ of beer every day cannabis abusers can surely smoke that much.

For me there is no way in the world I would ever want or need to use cannabis in those amounts. Just the time involved in using that much boggles my mind.

I live in CA.

I work for a Company in the Music Industry and most of the Employees are Musicians.

I’m the only person there who DOES NOT have a Medical Marijuana Card and I’m the only person there who is actually sick. I have Leukemia.

A visit to Dr. Feelgood and $100 gets you the Medical Marijuana Card. Now that recreational use of Marijuana has been Legalized in CA, it won’t be necessary anymore.

There is no lethal dose, so yeah, it would be possible, but you’re talking 10-50 joints a day, so you would need a lot of time on your hands, AND a lot of disposable income too. I guess Snoop Dogg could test the theory...

Well, a case of beer costs what? 15 bucks if you’re not picky? 10-50 joints a day would probably cost you somewhere between $250-1500 a day. Not many potheads can scrape that up.

the latest studies show pot smokers blood flow in brain is cut by over half

Wrong. "Hippocampal perfusion in marijuana users was 13% lower" - http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/873108

The addiction mars the thinking and judgement of marijuana users.

,get with the program.

Well you have certainly have been programmed. I don't smoke it myself but know some that do. They seem pretty normal to me. They hold down jobs and have raised their kids. One takes it for glaucoma and another is a cancer survivor. But it probably bothers you that someone is not using some overpriced liver killing medicine that is doctor prescribed and that's on you.

Great. Share a link to it, please. Because when I search for it, nothing that says what you claim shows up.

Looking forward to that link :)
