We don't rely on the government to grow all other healing herbs, food, etc..... so why give them more money and power to control hemp/cannabis???? Oh yeah, that's right.... we're totally at their mercy, for they are the ones with the real power to make it legal and allow us the privilege to use it.... if we're old enough...

Medicine with an age limit... hahahahahah... who the hell thinks age is a factor for considering efficacy of medicinal use? It's gonna be a VERY VERY long time before it can be considered as a pure medicine... instead of a natural drug that just happens to have medicinal uses. Ahh... the techno-industrial dark age continues.
You have a very good point there and a real example of history we can look at.

Tobacco. Certain tobacco strains has hallucinogenic properties. Also has medicinal uses. Now it's degenerated by tobacco companies into a cancer-causing, medicinally useless stick.

Do you want this to happen to cannabis? Didn't think so!
thcbongman Reviewed by thcbongman on . If legalized, would the amount of users soar? I've been trying to argue the benefits of marijuana legalisation with my friends, but they always seem to want to use the "there will be more car accidents!" argument against me. Their arguments rely heavily on the assumption that legalization would incur a large increase in users - I'm just wondering if there are any studies to show/refute that claim? I've tried Google Scholar, no luck so far. Thanks in advance.. Rating: 5
