Hello
but they were talking about killing brain cells and things like that.
well thats bullshit. they are porbably like everyone else who dont accept the proof that its harmless and want to keep being stubborn pricks and hating it. even if you do get them to say it is harmless physically theyll say it makes you stupid i guarentee that
Good luck with that. If they are that hard-pressed about it, you aren't going to be able to change their minds by spitting off some facts you found on the internet about why marijuana is not so bad.
Jackherer.com website is an excellent source. Make sure you make a list of all there arguments and find PROOF against them.
Braincells? Theres only 1 study that was done about this, and it wen't like this.
They forced monkeys to smoke a TON of weed, like more than most people would ever smoke. They basically suffocated them with carbon monoxide, which comes off any plant materlial that produces smoke. Then they killed the monkeys, counted brain cells and compared them to the dead monkeys who didn't smoke weed. Basically, they suffocated the monkeys. There wasn't enough oxygen getting to their brain so they had more dead braincells.
I'm pretty sure I read that on jackherer.com, but I can't find the page where it says that, and cites the experiment.
^ case and point, asphyxiation kills braincells, not marijuana
Tell them they're ignorant and that's more harmful than any drug.
say this : Y'all ignant.
Take a few joints into school, smoke up your class mates and teacher, if they like it job done, if not smoke em up again!:thumbsup:
Peace

Any brain cells killed by cannabis are inactive, or not used by the brain, and testing is controled by the government, so its obviously not going to let the truth get out.
Tell yoru class they need to actually RESEARCH what they are tlaking about.
If they carry on they are ignorant and dont deserve to be told.
yea but my teacher was like i no a freshamn that came into the school clean and by the time senior year came around he was fried and now he is like that for the rest of his life. so when i try to tell him about it not killing brain cells he is going to say that he has seen living proof.
This study actually shows that marijuana induces the growth of new brain cells and fights depression:

This one (found on NORML's website) gives a full report on cannabis and the brain:

(Erowid is also a good source to check out pertaining to other info on cannabis as well).
Hope this can help you.
that kid who got fried.. that could have been anything. theres no way to really directly link it to weed (well i guess i dont know the story but it doesnt seem like it). and if it was cause of the weed, it was prob cause the kid abused it. its just like anything else. too much of it can be a bad thing. you have to still be able to function on a daily basis or at least one of two days. but id tell them to show you a little better proof or at least a more solid argument. good luck
^^^^^ thats what i say to anyone who tells me weed gives you cancer. i tell them if they stood where they are long enough, they would get cancer from something around them. MODERATION is the key
OK, kid, here, throw copies of these at them! Moderate use is GOOD!

then hit them with more medical reports :dance:-- run a search on -- cannabis abstract and any major disease-- glioma (nasty brain cancer), cancer, alzheimers (new report just came out a few days ago! It works better that the doctor's pills!), diabetes, ALS, Parkinson's, neuropathy, diabetes... just run them with cannabis abstract and you will get thousands of hits on how cannabis can treat these diseases. Print them up and educate them! It's hard to argue against treating diseases with a simple herb! :thumbsup:
