"Typical stoner response":
GOD MADE POT
MAN MADE PHARMIES
LMAO
This is a fun thread
Will never happen.
I leave it for "scientists" like you to destroy your brain cells and lungs.
Science? Science? The amendment has nothing to do with science:
"None of the funds made available in this Act to the Department of Justice may be used to prevent the States of Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Nevada, Oregon, or Washington from implementing State laws authorizing the use of medical marijuana in those States."
This amendment is attached year after year. Last year it was defeated 60%-37%.
Federal law trumps state law. Those states are violating the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution. In my opinion, those state legislators should be tried for sedition.
Actually, for glaucoma, you would have to smoke it all day and all night since the effects only last 2-3 hours.
Federal law trumps state law.
But the drug "legalzation" crowd pretend they don't know that.
It doesn't matter what study you cite, they are typically as useless as your farts. I am pretty sure they are all biased, rather its from one side or the other. But, that is irrelavant to the central issue. It is your need for attention, and control that I am addressing.
You are a typical "village idiot". You hear something you agree with, and believe it is Gospel. You don't have to have proof, when it already fits your agenda. You fit into the mold of a proper "sheeple"
After almost half a century of real time experience, (and I'll bet I can get a few amens, right brethern and sistern?), I am convinced there is no more harmful effects from the use of marijuana, than from rising from my bed in the morning.
I am 58, reasonably healthy, reasonably wealthy, and no less wise, though I have probably smoked bales of the stuff. I have a great family, and live a comfortable fulfilled life. I own lots of properties and possessions and am grateful to a sweet wife who loves me, and a good dog who likes to go hiking and kayaking together. I spend as much time playing, as working, and still manage to have a greater tax bill than most people's incomes. I am a conservative, politically, and feel that speaks to true libertarian values, not just the crap we get from uour 'Pubbies of today.
Up yours, and please go away. Give these threads some space for their reality, instead of your consistently deceitful posits and bickering... I don't know whether you really have no idea what you are talking about, or you just wish to be abrasive. You NEVER have anything new to add, just your same old shiite! Respond is you must, but you will convince nobody herein, of anything you wish to debate! You don't tell us what to do, and neither does this stinkin' gum't , when it comes to the privacy of our homes. Check your Constitution, and call yourself "gay" for a minute!
We KNOW better than to listen to your crap! It smells too highly!
And natural law trumps federal law.
Shuffle and deal.
SOROS bankrolls the drug legalization movement.
Where does that put YOU ?
LOL.
HINT--CONSERVATISM does not equal smoking marijuana.
And he wears pants. Does that make pants unconservative?
CONSERVATISM does not equal smoking marijuana.
Who said it did? Conservatism also does not equal banning non-rights-violating acts.
Federal law exercising legitimate constitutional authority trumps state law.
I'm all for requiring marijuana to be labelled with its side effects.
You tell me. Why shouldn't marijuana have to go throught the same approval process as any other prescription drug? Why is marijuana so special?
It's not ... no adult should need the government's permission to ingest any substance.
According to whom? It isn't about smoking marijuana, duh! It is about the RIGHT to smoke marijuana. That is right in line with classic and current conservatism. It is statists such as you who wish to confuse the issue and make it into a health issue. It is not unhealthy to smoke anything. It is life in action... and shiite happens!
With folk like you, it is all about your own selfish interests, which have NOTHING to do with conservative principles...
yYou are a control freak, which is a common psychosis, and that can be treated, with the proper medication. Just ask your Doc!
Mostly the anti-drug federal government ... which by the principle of 'statement against interest' makes anti-WOD scientific results more credible than pro-WOD ones. Thanks for asking!
This particular study didn't find a link ... are there any that did (and controlled for other carcinogenic activities like smoking tobacco)?
Probably some government studies. So I won't waste my time looking them up for you.
But, let's have some fun and guess.
On the one side we have tobacco, linked to cancer. Then we have homegrown marijuana with 50% more carcinogens than tobacco, 4X the tar, unfiltered smoke drawn deep into the lungs and held there, smoked allllll the way down to the last crud-filled molecule ... I don't know. Whaddya think? Think maybe there might also be a link to cancer?
It took decades of cigarette smoking by millions of Americans before the links between tobacco and lung cancer and other lung diseases were shown.
Well, I don't.
Where does that put YOU ?
The RWJF is bankrolling the prohibition movement. Where does that put you?
They proved a link between saccharin and bladder cancer, too.
Articles of clothing now have a political leaning? Like right-wing-tip shoes?
"Conservatism also does not equal banning non-rights-violating acts."
Oh, you bet it does equal that and it always has. Libertarianism does not equal banning non-rights-violating acts. Let's get that straight.
