I talk about how the marijuana users use the marijuana, not how the scienific research about it. For example, I read one of the threads about the eggs was bad for you from a research group which was pretty joke.

That is all my point was about the scienific research about health issues.

:gpost: I agree with you. I like to be comfort with my trust friends not stranger. I don't like to around with wrong friends. It make me panic. I rather be with my trust friends only. I don't like to smoke in car. Because of police cars. The best is smoke in home for safe. Not in public place and cars. It's not safe!

That is good suggestion.

If you want to smoke marijuana with someone you trust, do it where you are going to be comfortable like at someone who you trust at their home, rather than trying it first time in car, parties or strange places you are not comfortable with and become paranoid what if.

:gpost: It's not fair! Why we have a legal tobacco and alcohol??? Why Marijuana is illegal? I can see everyone are complain about Marijuana need legalize. Yow know who is DWI and have a beers. They can go to jail for drink beers and drunk in public. Why the police arrest on innocent people for smoke weed with paraphernalia?? That's same with alcohol in public.

Jasin - As the father said in KNOCKED UP movie - ""If it grows in the ground, it's probably ok."

So you say marijuana is bad and causes all these kind of criminal behaviors.... well! What about coffee beans? it's grown from the ground and it causes people to get hyper which leads to A.D.D., impatience, road rage and bunch more! We better ban it! What about whiskey? It's made from grain and it cause alcoholism! It causes DUI, drunk criminal behavior, etc. We better ban it! Why don't we ban tobacco too? It killed 10000000000000000000000000 people in one year alone! Weed killed 0 people!

Please stfu and have a hit :smoking:

Interesting. Hmm, weed is not dangerous right. So compare to drugs which is dangerous like all heroine, LSD, meth, cocaine. Why different for weed that's not related to drugs right?. I don't get it. Weed is not related to drugs, that's planet right?.

Like one AD member that says it doesn't make sense why weed is considered a crime is it???. I heard people angry and protest because they need to use it for medical purpose
because of the illness.

I never try weed or I don't pot. Maybe I will try it for just expert but I dunno. I'm chicken.

Marijuana has fewer side effects than alcohol and many prescription drugs and even over the counter drugs. It is an herb, a natural substance. It is opnly classified as a drug because society has chosen to make it illegal. And it was made illegal based on mistaken information of the kind that people ont his board are attempting to give you.

Effects of Marijuana on the Brain.
Researchers have found that THC changes the way in which sensory information gets into and is acted on by the hippocampus. This is a component of the brain's limbic system that is crucial for learning, memory, and the integration of sensory experiences with emotions and motivations. Investigations have shown that THC suppresses neurons in the information-processing system of the hippocampus. In addition, researchers have discovered that learned behaviors, which depend on the hippocampus, also deteriorate.


Effects on the Lungs.
Someone who smokes marijuana regularly may have many of the same respiratory problems that tobacco smokers have. These individuals may have daily cough and phlegm, symptoms of chronic bronchitis, and more frequent chest colds. Continuing to smoke marijuana can lead to abnormal functioning of lung tissue injured or destroyed by marijuana smoke.

Regardless of the THC content, the amount of tar inhaled by marijuana smokers and the level of carbon monoxide absorbed are three to five times greater than among tobacco smokers. This may be due to marijuana users inhaling more deeply and holding the smoke in the lungs.

Effects of Heavy Marijuana Use on Learning and Social Behavior.
A study of college students has shown that critical skills related to attention, memory, and learning are impaired among people who use marijuana heavily, even after discontinuing its use for at least 24 hours. Researchers compared 65 "heavy users," who had smoked marijuana a median of 29 of the past 30 days, and 64 "light users," who had smoked a median of 1 of the past 30 days. After a closely monitored 19- to 24-hour period of abstinence from marijuana and other illegal drugs and alcohol, the undergraduates were given several standard tests measuring aspects of attention, memory, and learning. Compared to the light users, heavy marijuana users made more errors and had more difficulty sustaining attention, shifting attention to meet the demands of changes in the environment, and in registering, processing, and using information. The findings suggest that the greater impairment among heavy users is likely due to an alteration of brain activity produced by marijuana.

Longitudinal research on marijuana use among young people below college age indicates those who used have lower achievement than the non-users, more acceptance of deviant behavior, more delinquent behavior and aggression, greater rebelliousness, poorer relationships with parents, and more associations with delinquent and drug-using friends.

Those studies are flawed. If you will check the more reliable studies, you will find that the vast majority of these chidlren were having difficulty in school prior to ever using weed.

Likewise, in order for a study to say that marijuana is responsible for learning difficulties, the individual being tested would have to be tested pre-use, as well. It is the only way to determine if the weed causes the difficulties, or if the person is using the weed in an attempt to deal with the difficulties that were already present. Consensus is, deviant behavior precedes any type of drug use, not that the drug use causes the deviant behavior.
 
That's true about kids at school. It's not good for kids to smoke early. Because of brain's developed. The best is Adult people can smoke. Some criminal people do not responsible to take care of their possessions around with crime streets.

Ah, I see. if you pot too much? So, then what happens?.

I heard some people who pot weed for medical purpose like serious illness or something so, you don't feel pain. Is that true?.

Doing anything too much can be harmful, including exercising and taking vitamins.

Do you mean marijuana can harm to taking a vitamins??? I know one of woman is a popper with vitamins and smoke weed and alcohol. I think she is crazy.

No, what I meant was taking too many vitamins can be harmful to your body. Some vitamins can be toxic if you take more than recommended. So saying too much marijuana can be bad can be said about anything. But when used responsibly, it has fewer side effects than many other things. Too much Tylenol can cause liver failure. The key is, don't use anything too much. Use it responsibly.

When comapred to alcohol, marijuana in the same proportion has fewer side effects than alcohol. Not to mention which, alcohol is physically addictive. Marijuana is not.

Ohh yeah. I am talking about the woman I know who. She is taking too much vitamins supplement. She think it's okay to be smoke weed and alcohol. It's crazy! But not my problem. I don't like to take too much vitamins.

I honest think marijuana isnt a drug.. its a natural thing! If ppl think its a drug obviously they add something inside the marijuana to make it more dangerous.

Foxglove, hemlock, poison ivy and purple nightshade are natural too, but you won't see me smoking them.
 
zigzag said:
What! I didn't know about that. I don't take vitamins. Thanks Jillio.

YW. You can take vitamins and exercise, though. Just not more than the recommended dose. Some people take handfulls of them thinking that they will get healthier, when it really hurts their health. Not to mention spending a bunch of money!:giggle:

That would be wise not to smoke them. I'd suggest you not eat them either. They are toxic. Marijuana does not have the same toxic properties as foxglove, hemlock, poison ivy, and purple nightshade.
