Is marijuana Satan's smoke, or God's Gift?

[GooseBear]

I'd get an A on that paper and actually enjoy researching/writing about it
. My roomie has to do a paper on a controversial topic I told her to do it on MJ. Or stem cell research
haha

[Encatuse]

That government agencies and private industry target certain socail boards, and pretend to be normal people but are in fact gathering infomation on how the public reacts specifically to certain sitations so as they can better sell us products we dont need.

Don't be silly. ^.^ What product could this possibly help them sell? And because the information he is gathering is so non-specific there's no possibility of him narcing. Not everyone is out to get the potheads.

[GHoSToKeR]

Do Not everyone is out to get the potheads.

even potheads are out to get us potheads

get away from me, pothead!! leave us potheads alone!!

12. no, haven't come across any
13. Marijuana is not a gateway drug. A person who chooses to progress to harder drugs is predisposed to do so. Whether or not the smoked weed has no bearing on their decision to escalate their drug usage.

11."illegal" source, because a recreational pot smoker can't walk down to the shop and ask for a pack of White Widow joints, for example, like tobacco users can...Lets all thank our ultra conservative governments for that...
12.I would have to be a complete retard to trust the Australian government with my 'criminal habit'. No, its not a gateway drug. Each individuals choice is theirs to make.Cannabis doesn't whisper in your ear 'go try coke or heroin'. But I do think anyone who enjoys a drug such as cannabis would probably be open to trying XTC, shrooms or Acid.

Pot is here because it's here. No one can change that, not even the government. And for the government to dictate cannabis' purpose on earth is goin beyond their actual jobs...

Glad the title was catchy enough to entrap whoever was currently surfing! Alright; I'm a high school student working on an MIS (Major Independant Study) based on the medicinal values of marijuana. I have a questionnaire for anyone to fill out so that I can get some accurate results on whether marijuana (previously advertised as a rape drug, the cause of gang wars, teen pregnancy, etc) helps people or not; I need a lot of people (so far I have 12) and the results are very promising so far. I'd very much appreciate anyone helping me out and, if you want me to, I can post the results after I've finished compiling everything.



1. Are you male or female?
2. What is your age range (10-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, etc)?
3. Have you ever smoked or consumed marijauana directly?
4. Have you ever felt any adverse effects (nausea, dizziness, vomitting, headache, etc?
5. If not, what sort of effects did you encounter? How long did they last?
6. If you have discovered adverse effects (nausea, dizziness, vomitting, headache, etc) after inhaling or consuming marijuana directly, do you think the effects may have been the reult of taking another drug before using marijuana, such as a painkiller, an alcoholic beverage or some other kind of medication?
7. Do you use marijuana for medicinal or recreational purposes?
8. Does your consumption of marijuana interfere with any of your activities (job or school)?
9. If you use marijuana for medicinal purposes, do you suffer from a disease such as AIDS, cancer, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, etc?
10. If you suffer from a disease that isn't one of tha above, which disease is it? How does the inhalation and/or consumption of marijuana help you?
11. Are you able to buy your marijuana from a deisgnated grower, or do you buy your marijuana from an illegal source? Why?
12. Have you ever tried marijuana issued by the government? If not, why? If so, what is your opinion of it- price, quality, accessibility, etc?
13. What is your opinion about the accessibility of marijuana? Do you believe marijuana is a gateway drug? Explain. Do you have any other comments?

[kr1Nx01]

1. m
2. 18
3. yes
4. yes, see 6
5. positive effects: constructivism (i'm not sure what that means, but it sounds like something g.w. would say), euphoria (sure, why not), complacency (it is usually quite satifying!), etc
6. yes, a gram of acetaminophen
7. a bit of both i suppose... though i don't have any diagnosed diseases
8. Not at all. In fact, they usually co-incide with one another
9. nope
10. i suffer from a syndrome called boredom, marijuana helps me find productive (well, not really) ways to KILL my boredom virus.
11. illegal source since most people (i.e. non-drug-users) are sheepish drones that like to repeat and believe what they are told about drugs (especially cannabis) from the government
12. no, marijuana is 100% illegal in my state (il). no medical cards for us!
13. marijuana is quite accessable, and in any given day i could easily procure some for myself with little hassle. i think cannabis should be as legal as alcohol currently is, in that it shouldn't be sold to minors (as it can hinder the maturing process during puberty... adolescents should not do ANY kind of drugs), shouldn't be used outside in public, etc. if the government took the alcohol laws and applied them to marijuana today, i'm pretty sure we'd have a happier tommorow with very little repercussion (besides the die-hard anti-pot people blowing themselves up and shit)

[Reefer Rogue]

1. male
2. 16
3. yes
4. No
5. relaxing soothing effects usually lasting 4 hours +
6. yes takin drugs like alcohol with marijauna will make these effects
7. recreational
8. No
9. No
10. not diseases
11. i buy it illegaly becasue its illegal
12. if i asked the government for pot theyd lock me up
13. very accesible all over the world the war on drugs is a complete failure. it is not a gateway drug as opposed that the gateway is the person, the drug does not make you try other drugs you have the power over which drugs you take marijuana does not force you to try other drugs. alcohol is just as much as a gateway drug as weed which is to say if you dont think alcohol is a gateway drug then weed isnt a gateway drug.
