The concept of "drugs" has to be rethought: it is totally unscientific and borne out of the prohibition era. I mean the term jams together substances that have nothing in common, from manufacture to effects. Some "Drugs" are less toxic than a cold medication, and alcohol and cigarettes are somehow excluded from the category!

Aside from that, making marijuana illegal makes no sense from any conceivable viewpoint. Really the people who want it illegal are either misinformed or hypocrites.

what interest's me...

is how people accept something that can very easily kill them as long as it is "legal"

and if pot was "legal" it would then be okay...

like when do people actually use their brains and think? instead of having to be told....

great comment Don...thanks

@desire4liberation people with endocannabinoid deficency may find not easy unlearn what they learned because the endocannabinoid system, as well as the plant, regulates open mindedness. what is open mindedness? it's the ability to take in newer, better information. smoking cannabis would help them.

@ragazzaimpaurita86 do you think it has anything to do with the pituitary? and do you think flouride has caused the blocking you speak of?

[paranoidboytoy]

@ragazzaimpaurita86 you could use a phd in grammar. it was very incoherent and an insult to state your credentials after the fact

[DonVoghano]

@surferlivh And I certainly am not referring to pharmacology, where one well hopes that nicotine and alcohol would be considered drugs - despite the fact that the term maintains a vague connotation even in dictionaries. What I mean is the "drugs are bad" pop lingo that translates into policies which are NOT scientific and do not include alcohol and tobacco. As a pharmacologist aren't you suspicious when you see opiates are allowed free and liberal therapeutic use whereas cannabinoids struggle?

[surferlivh]

@DonVoghano Just one more point - in the degree that I am doing - Medical Pharmacology, Alcohol and Nicotine ARE considered as drugs - I'm not disagreeing with you on anything here, I'm simply stating the fact.

@DonVoghano Also - the chances of me replying to the next comment (if you reply) are low since I don't receive e-mail notifications and I'm only on this video for revision purposes - after my exams are over, I won't be looking back!

@DonVoghano Apart from the fact that I have had personal experience of this with a family member, and have attended numerous lectures regarding this topic, there are studies to show that cannabis use can be a precursor to developing Schizophrenia in patients who have a history of mental disorders. This is the latest one, published in the BMJ, which shows that cannabis use led to a 2-3 fold increased risk of psychosis

@surferlivh Yes, show me studies "proving" this link (which by the way was first established in a court, not in a lab) and I will show you studies disproving it. Most recently a British study showing increase in marijuana smoke in the UK since the '90s with no increase in schizophrenia.

[surferlivh]

@DonVoghano Misinformed... despite the proven links with cannabis use as a precursor to developing Schizophrenia?

Why would you name this video anandamide, if you aren't using it in your tags???

@lzcracker nicotine also has about 4000 added chemicals to make it reach the brain faster, and to be more potent and addictive.. I cant make the same argument for caffeine, as it originates from the coffee beans.

Im not even trying to compare cannabis to alcohol, and dont intend to try. Alcohol is toxic, deadly, and addictive.

Everything cannabis is not.
