Before i smoked marijuana, i used to faint very easily (because i never had an appetite, and could not sleep) after 2 years of smoking marijuana, it completely went away, and i feel much better now that I'm medicated.

Problem is it's illegal here, and I'm looked down upon, only because of propaganda.

I am sick of this, as I'm sure many other people out there who need this medicine are. God put this here for a reason.

marijuana doesnt kill brains cells. its not addictive and its impossible to overdose on. alcohol is addictive and can kill you. tobacco is addictive and kills.

Lynch's veto is and should be political suicide. VOTE LYNCH OUT fellow New Hampshirites.

Thank you for the courage to do something like this, Dennis. We need more people like you, especially patients, standing up for medical marijuana (and out right re-legalization, I might add).

If Lynch vetoes this bill, I hope all of New Hampshire protests and throws him out.

I'm not twisting words.

Someone said that pot's biggest negative side effect is getting arrested.

But pot doesn't do that.

Ok little boy, where did I say POT did anything? I said I was arrested for having pot in my house, I said I was arrested for passing a joint and for possessing pot. I also stated the biggest danger of USING CANNABIS is getting arrested. So don't play word games with me. You sound like the ten year old girl I babysit. This issue is much more important than playing stupid games over how people phrase things, and you don't use proper grammar yourself. So take your games somewhere else,

[sabaths1fan]

Pot didn't arrest you.

You got yourself arrested by having it.

I'm not saying what is right and wrong, I'm saying pot didn't hurt you.

The people who arrested you arrested you.

Stop trying to blame pot for what those people did.

It's not pot's fault.

I for one am so very happy for you! That you are healthy that is, as far as being illegal it is a shame actually I think it is criminal to keep marijuana from people that could benefit from it. Many people have bad reactions to medications designed to stimulate appetite, or they just do not work, marijuana helps tremendously in many of these cases and for you nay sayers no synthetic drugs like Marinol do not work for most patients, (some doctors now refuse to prescribe it) I'm glad you're better

[BadSmaxx]

No but I have been arrested for having pot in my house, arrested in the 1980's for "Trafficking of a Schedule I Drug" at a rally for the legalization of marijuana in Madison, WI for passing a marijuana cigarette to someone, and a hold and release for possession at the Harvest Festival (also a legalization rally) in the early 1990's. So yeah, I agree that is the biggest danger of using cannabis.

YEAH!!

Come on dude that is just stupid. Show me one documented fact concerning stems and or seeds causing brain damage and I will personally mail you twenty-five dollars. And no your drug dealer doesn't count.. DOCUMENTED FACTS ONLY. And believe me if it were true the medical marijuana sites will be filed with warnings so start your search now..

[BadSmaxx]

Another myth from grammar school yet! The stems aren't going to kill brain cells, they might not taste good, they may stink, but they sure as hell don't kill brain cells unless you smoke a cup of them, then you may have an oxygen starvation problem to your brain which could kill brain cells in theory.

Want to kill brain cells? GUARANTEED way is to drink alcohol to excess. So stick to facts not rumors and playground myths.
