For over 40 years, the Feds have poured tens of millions of dollars into research to prove the deleterious effects of marijuana, and came up empty. Thus, government scientists invented the 'Gateway' hypothesis, which is almost Hegelian in its 'constructive' metaphysics.

Now, REAL scientists discover that the demon weed actually has all sorts of possible uses, to almost no informed person's surprise.

Read 'The Emperor's New Clothes', and understand everything you need to know about the relationship between the State and the Intellectuals.

It doesn't make sense to me that the people who are so against the legalization of marijuana don't have the same problems with alcohol.

I watched my father-in-law die a horrible death from cirrhosis and won't be surprised if the same fate awaits my own father. They both destroyed their families because they couldn't put the bottle down. Fortunately, neither of them killed anyone while driving drunk, but that was pure luck.

Alcohol kills people and destroys their loved ones lives, yet it's still legal and I think it should remain that way. I don't think everyone should be denied the pleasure of a drink or two because some people can't control themselves. And I feel the same way about marijuana.

Researchers presented tantalising evidence that cannabinoid drugs can help treat obesity.

That's funny, it always made me want to eat and eat and eat.

"Cannabinoids have a lot of pharmaceutical potential," says Piomelli, a neuroscientist at the University of California. "A lot of people are very excited."

There's a reason that neurons have cannabinoid receptors.
