They said two nights ago, on the local news for Jackson, MS, that they had found that smoking marijuana does not lead to lung cancer. They said the scientist were amazed because it contains twice as many cancer causing chemicals.

I read an article a couple weeks ago that explained the same concept. They said that people that live in New York City breathes as much pollution as a tobacco smoker who smokes a pack to a pack and a half a day of cigs, but they do not get lung cancer like the tobacco smoker. The non-smoker's lungs block the cancer causing chemicals and pollution. The nicotiene causes the smoker's lungs to lose the ability to block the chemicals.

I used to smoke cigs. I ended up in the hospital. My athsma medicine quit working and I couldn't breathe after smoking for a couple years. I've been smoking weed for years. I don't have asthma, anymore. It is nothing like tobacco.

I don't really need a scientist to tell me something that experience has shown me. I thank Jesus for the medicine He gave me. I would not be able to comfortably function in society without it.

As a young teen I was diagnosed bi-polar. The meds caused me to attempt suicide. They diagnosed me with major-depression. I thought I was badder than anybody and went to jail for trying to beat up a couple police officers. I quit taking meds. As an adult a local doctor prescribed me xanax. It helped if I stayed messed up on them, but I had to take more and more to get the same effect till I ran out. That made my anxiety really stand out. They tried to diagnose me bi-polar, again.
I told them that I have a wife and three kids. It was okay back then, but I cannot afford to be experimented on, anymore. I told them that marijuana helps me and I do not want any pills. I started my own business with the help of marijuana holding my nerves and self together. "Well, what if you go to jail?" It's not my fault that I am not allowed to have the only medicine that helps without the dangerous side effects. It helps me without making me want to kill my self or anyone else. "You live your life the way you want." I told the doc she must be Libertarian.

God bless yall and your work. Do not give up the fight. Have courage and we will be free. :dance:
