i just watched the 60 minute segement on medical pot being legal in cali. i think that is is def being misused but the feds are taking it way to far in raiding legal vendors without any reason. what do you think?

well dishing out pot is better than having people addicted to pills. not for the pharm. companies though (which might have suggested this segment)

Not redic - it is an analgesic - that is, it reduces tissue inflamation. This is why it is has been shown to have a statistically significant effect in reducing rates of lung cancer and why it is legitimate as a treatment for chronic pain associated with inflamed tissues - like arthritis.

CA is kinda redic.. i mean.. you can just go in and say that you get bad headaches and that pot smoking helps and they'll let you join the cannabis club.

i could see  60 minutes easily being influenced by the government, to make the publics views on weed negitive.

when really it isn't any worse then any legal substance people consume right now.

so? they're trying to push decrimilization and allow people to smoke safely. the more people that can use it safely, the closer we get towards decrimilization.

there was a political party who ran in the last election in NZ called Legalize Cannabis.. Haha. But on the point, my uncle has had lung cancer 3 times, and has 1/4 of one lung left, but he's been having some problems lately so he went to his friend in Cali who grows it for the pharms or whatever.. but smoking pot on 1/4 of a lung isn't exactly a good idea he said.. he almost died haha

Its basically legal in California to a certain extent if you live in San Fransisco. There are like 40 cannabis clubs in San Fransisco alone and they got all kinds of exoitic strains. Its pretty sick once I turn 18 which is in a month Im getting my card.

I bet the pharmaceutical companies were advertising heavily for that episode and made sure that they made marijuana look horrible.
