The U.S. government claims marijuana is a dangerous, addictive drug with no medical benefits. But that claim will be up for debate Monday in California when a federal judge is scheduled to hear testimony from doctors that conclude the opposite.
Doctors Carl Hart, Associate Professor of Psychology at Columbia University, retired physician Phillip Denny, and Greg Carter, Medical Director of St. Luke’s Rehabilitation Institute in Spokane, Washington will testify Monday that marijuana — real name, “cannabis” — is not the demon drug the federal government makes it out to be. Accepted science does not justify the listing of cannabis as a dangerous “Schedule I” substance, many say.
“[I]t is my considered opinion that including marijuana in Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act is counter to all the scientific evidence in a society that uses and values empirical evidence,” Dr. Hart declared. “After two decades of intense scientific inquiry in this area, it has become apparent the current scheduling of cannabis has no footing in the realities of science and neurobiology.” [...]

So, if pot doesn't make you mellow, what is its effect?
Where's the proof that pot made Henderson aggressive?
A Google search does not substantiate your claim; I did find him correctly saying, "when you are drunk, it tends to be more violent, than people on marijuana." - http://www.foxnews.com/transcript/2011/11/04/weed-yes-cigarettes-no/
“As a real conservative I have an interest in freedom.”

etc.
Tell us what you do for the freedom of aborted babies.
Do you realize that HHS exists and is able to fund Planned Parenthood through the same abuse of the Commerce Clause that created the DEA?
What actions have you taken for the freedom of aborted babies?
Proof or its just your opinion? I feel it is immoral. If most people also feel it is immoral and it becomes a law. 1 judge can twist the law around any way they feel and BAM most of the citizens who have to live under the law opinion doesn’t count any more.
If you respond, don’t use a civil rights issue with me. Oppressing people because of the color of their skin or gender is immoral. How is getting high moral?
posting to the same crowd is ‘doing’
i see
“What actions have you taken for the freedom of aborted babies?”
no
Talk is cheap.
i was not talking to you

i realize everyone is welcome to post, and i am welcome to say i have no interest in talking to someone that inserts himself into my conversation
now go hit your bong and fume over that a few days
in a mellow kinda way, of course
How does that work? You started this by posting a response addressed to "All'.
THAT is how that workz
pothedz sure need a ton of explanations for the obvious
in a mellow kinda way, of course
And, your posts are sooooo relevent and pertinent, too.
Actually, loopy, I did.
I responded to that post, but loopy didn't notice. Or, bother to reply.
Somehow, responding to a post addressed to 'All' means I'm intruding on loopy's oh-so-very-important conversation.
and like everyone else on the planet - i ignored you
post 43 was what you horned in on - and was in no way directed to you
are you really lonely or something?
