Those stoners couldn’t remember.

This is 100% a real thing. The majority of serious stoners, people who get high all day every day, that I know well enough to admit something like that admit they puke most mornings and they aren’t even big drinkers.

I've been a daily cannabis user for 15+ years, mostly smoking the dank nugs, and I have never had any bullshite like this happen. Only time I get nausea is from drinking alcohol. Plus it says dude was taking all kinds of prescription pills and I'm sure those had some effect on it.

And guess what? If that is the worse that cannabis will do to you, then who fricking cares? So you get nausea and you got to take a shower, bid deal, wanna fight about it?

This isn't true. It's not bad for some but very bad for others.
Cannabis is very good for you. Don't let these bullshite articles with no substance sway your feeble little mind so easily.

Cannabis is so bad for people that it is a very effective potent medicine that can treat and cure cancers, and stop some of the worst seizures in a matter of seconds. I agree tho, that cannabis is bad for those that do not want it to be legal (alcohol, Big Pharm, DEA, etc). Maybe we should ask Colorado how bad cannabis is for the state? In 2017, they made over a 1.5 billion dollars in cannabis sales, all the while reducing crime rates in the state, reducing opiate addictions, and providing plenty of tax money for the school systems. I'm sure Colorado thinks it has turned out so bad for their state.

Also, pot isn't an "evil".

It's "kind of bad" at worst.


Actually cannabis is the greatest plant on Earth.

If it isn't, then I would love for you guys to name a more versatile plant that can be used for biodiesel fuel, food, building materials, clothing, biodegradable plastics, and a potent medicine, that can be mass grown relatively easily, almost any where on Earth. I don't believe in the christian religion but if there is a tree of life, it is the fricking cannabis plant. Although some say that in Hindu, that the cannabis plant is associated with the god Shiva. Plus we all know that cannabis is good for your soul, where as alcohol is the devil's water.

Smoking cheap MJ wrapped in cheap cigar tobacco will do that.

THC can be utilized many better ways than smoking.

I've quit for weeks with no problem. I don't take pills, I don't drink (few times year and only a few beers at that or shots), I got a job, pay my bills, etc. In fact my supervisor keeps commenting on how quick thinking I am and creative in solving problems at work. Hmmm, I wonder why? "Sharper than a razor blade and still be burning weed"

My feeble little mind has worked in mental health / substance abuse for 25 years.

I am speaking about what I have repetitively seen first hand with my own feeble little eyes for many years.

Just like any other molecule that binds within the brain and produces an effect. ....some people can handle it and some can't. Some people become extremely addicted to it, to the point that they can't cope with minor life stressors if they don't have it. They become so stressed that they become suicidal. Some stop growing as people. They stay stuck at that adolescent level (based on your smugness this is probably you). They dont mature, live in the parents house for decades, never have a meaningful job or a family.
They are just 35 year old teenagers. I have seen this many times. Some people with schizophrenia can't handle it. They smoke it all day, causing their medications to be ineffective resulting in repeated hospitalizations due to psychosis and the resulting bizarre and sometimes dangerous behavior.

It's not this harmless natural happy plant that many believe it is. Stop perpetuating that lie when you can only speak from your own little experience with it.

And I’ll take that report and pass it to the next guy, and pretty soon it will get passed back to me.

Most here are making the opinion that with moderate to occasional use, MJ is relatively harmless. You are describing individual with serious addictions and mental illness. Not really a valid argument for pot to stay illegal. No one is perpetuating that if you have serious mental illness or addictive personality that pot would be a harmless thing. Like others here have said, anything abused can be harmful to your health and well-being. Seems you just have an axe to grind.

No. I just wanted to present a different but very real perspective on it. I don't sreally anything wrong with people having different perspectives on it so that they can make their own choices....do you?
