    Does it kill people ? no. Are the active ingredients carcinogens, or cause aids, or any other kind of virus/disease ? no. Does thc kill cells in a developed brain ? no. Does it cause depression or other mental illness in people who are not prone to these conditions ? no.

    Like in a murder trial, you couldn't get a conviction for something you didn't do. Unless someone smarter than you had a vested interest in you going to prison...
    Spoken like a user. You can get the same cancers from smoking dope as cigarettes. A well documented side effect is paranoia. Only users defend it as "harmless".

    awh come on Edbear, didn't you notice the cunning hair splitting in his post. He soooooo funny.

    "Are the active ingredients carcinogens", well neither is nicotine, it is the other shit that
    comes with it.

    "Does it kill people", neither do cigarettes, it is the cancer etc they cause that kills them.

    Now this one you could have a whole thread about;
    "Does it cause depression or other mental illness in people who are not prone to these conditions"
    Imagine the argument regarding and defining prone to the condition and did the cannabis make them prone etc. Sorry have seen too much evidence, not court of law proven though, that heavy user will get depression to the point were some will kill themselves.

    There is an argument that it was so heavily outlawed because the cotton industry at the time was worried about hemp as a fabric. Unlike more toxic drug, opium for example, it was not even allowed to be investigated as having possible medical application and this is where things went too far.

    All of the above apply but I can also add that after a race and while the adrenalin is still coursing through the veins the rush is something else...that's my favourite time to have a cigarette.

    But I know what Edbear is getting at and my fitness now is not great as before I just got through on stamina and thats deserting me even more these days, somethings gotta give soon.

    Most herbs have value in some way and usually in health or medicine. Cannabis seems to have medical uses that are now being investigated.

    You make a very good point. Ask any health professional or sports/fitness instructor and you know the advice you will get.

    Thats why it should be eaten and in tinctures, as it was sold in pharmacy's for 100's of years... Weed is actually a anti-cancer treatment Ed, do some reading instead of quoting Mildred from church

    Ed, you talk about 'research' all the time, yet quote wives tales and continue half truths and lies that suit your worldview and political/social/religious bias

    At this stage cannabis looks a lot less harmful that some of the moralistic emotional blackmail that various financial interest groups bandy about, harming NZ youth with propaganda over facts!! Recirculating untruths and propaganda for your status within their pack, (like the guys they hire to cheer the speaker and turn the masses.....)

    all the while harming young NZers with confounding statements that are contrary to their own real life experiences and that of the wider public

    all the while the kids have to listen to lying officials, or lying anti prohibitionists..... and are caught in the middle of a money go round, and corporate battle for the recreational dollar of NZ youf

    Yes, everyone including me can be a dumb fucker quoting garbage from their ethnocentric gang leaders asshole. I could quote rubbish from the cannabis culture movement handbook, just like you fire off your prohibitionist handbook rubbish, and at the end of the day we are both wrong and both harming the young people of NZ

    Its depressing when you think about it. meh

    Your leaders have a big stage, and many ardent and earnest followers with contacts...........bit like the destiny church eh? political clout......even on TV, in papers, doesnt make it any less garbage though, prolly makes it more harmful rubbish tho due to its prevalence and financial interests giving it legitimacy

    Amen to all the fucking parrot monkeys on both sides of the fence.

    Your mainstream rhetoric and the alternative rhetoric of the cannabis culture movement........ is a language of financial interests, and fuck the children. SAD

    Last night I sat at a table where the 15 or so cannabis users put away rather large quantities of high grade cannabis for 4-5 hours on end!

    I commented on how angry and irritable I had been, since I had not smoked for 3 days. I said

    'well I suppose if I wasn't addicted to weed I would just have a junk food addiction, smoke tobacco and harm my self proportionally more than with cannabis, thereby costing the taxpayer and myself much more, financially and socially'

    reply from everyone: so your assuming cannabis is addictive???

    meh, 95% of everyone is full of shit!!

    why else would I have withdrawal rage??

    and this is from A+ student double degree dick brains

    You need to read all I post, not pick and choose out of context. Nothing I have posted is lies or propaganda and nothing from anywhere but established medical documentation and research. You attack me with prejudice and are factually incorrect which does your argument no good.

    You come across as angry and defensive which serves merely to confirm you are addicted to the effects of dope without care for the known harmful side effects. You do not use it for medical reasons so to argue any positive benefits is a moot point and does not apply to you.

    Whatever Ed

    I remember years of dog with a bone, holy roller arguments you have on KB

    As you were good man, I try to learn by my mistakes and accidents, I tried putting god in my pocket, but she kept on tickling my balls when I opened my gob

    Mysterious ways are beyond my scope of comprehension, so I deter to your wisdom

    Please urinate on this spot after me, but please consider the youth of NZ's real welfare next time you piss on something

    Is smoking the only thing that causes mouth/throat cancer? Does emphasyma and heart failure only occur in those that smoke? Should women who have a history of breast cancer in the family remove their breasts just in case? I'm not excusing smoking, and whilst I will accept your russian roulette argument, I won't accept your direct consequence argument because it is not a fact that smoking is 100% responsible for ANY cancer or disease. I have no doubt that it is a contributing factor to damaging a persons health and that there is a higher probability that a person will contract a smoking attributed (not related) disease, but it isn't the only thing that damages a persons health and people who don't smoke die of exactly the same diseases as those who do smoke. Russian Roulette at best... I only started smoking to help with my gambling habit...

    Would you class that as denial?
    I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!

    Smoking - it's your choice.
    And when I say why? - you will say why not.

    Indeed, if you've got nothing better to do with $50,000 and more in your lifetime and don't give a shit about health issues then go for it.

    Me? - I'll just keep spending my money on gas-guzzlers and stuff like that

    (When I was 15 I looked at the price on a packet of cigarettes and thought "Crap, that's a gallon of petrol"
    Now I'm laughing even more 'cos a packet of 20 costs way more than a gallon of gas.

    And $50,000 spent on tobacco will get you nowhere and give you nothing tangible to show for it...unless you have a fettish for old cigarette butts and empty Bic-Flics

    But hey, what do I know - I don't smoke.
