Medical Marijuana Use

Darr of TAPPS talks about medical marijuana. How people need to keep it (the use of) legal and not promote it as drug use. He talks about his license for medical marijuana (got it in Aug,2011), and his reason for doing so. Also talks about some of the big myths concerning medical marijuana, pro and con.

great video, im 24yrs old male been suffereing from chornic back pain for 4yrs with out any medisense. i have a spinal cord disease called syrix or Syringomyelia. Syringomyelia is damage to the spinal cord due to the formation of a fluid-filled area within the cord. my symtoms are, tiredness, muscle tightness, spasms, and mid upper back joinit pain. i have been told by friends that smoking pot could help me

@heyyo1987 I think if its legal in your state, that i would give it a try.

[concernedagain]

Completely agree 100%

People do not need to 'glorify' cannabis and stick it in the face of the officials, or like what is happening now, Obama has done a u-turn and is closing down the pot shops in Cali(second hand information), it also happened here in the UK some while back, a 'trial' run of legalising cannabis went ahead in Brixton UK, it soon got abused and the new cannabis law was retracted :(.

I too feel no need for 'harder' drugs, pot does me just fine! :)

@concernedagain understood, I am not one for showing off that i am legal. One guy on youtube has about 50 water pipe (bong) videos, some showing him smoking it. In one such video the guy smokes a "triple threat" out of a pipe he just made. Then he has the typical drug attitude, "oh, that was good sh*t". If people don't want to lose the ability to get marijuana legally for medical use those kinds of videos need to go. It makes people think that the only reason is that so people can get high.

Medical marijuana is bullshit. People who promote medicinal marijuana just want to be able to smoke it without having their doors kicked in by the DEA. Don't get roped in to their dumbass lies. If it is ever legalized, all you'll see is people going into the doctor's office for some dumbass thing just to get medicinal marijuana.

@SchwartzBruder30 that may be true but the fees are not for the average "dumbArse" to afford, persoanlly i'df like to see the costs for licences go up to 300 or more. most of the MJ smokers that would just doing it for the "high" would have to stick to street sources.

I promote it because it works for me.

@Tapps47 i do know that it is good for asthma too. i think it increases heart rate and blood flow. it helped me when i was younger (i haven't been on the stuff for a couple years now) but i think it is more useful than people give it credit for. my asthma felt like a horse was sitting on my chest and when the stuff kicked in it felt like it was lifted off and i could breath easily again. i only used it once or twice a month and i feel it genuinely helped me in those hard times.

[Tapps47]

@busyhands94 yeah I (Darr M.) agree. there however needs more studies done to determine what Marijuana actually is good for as ailments go. One known use is that it is good for pain and its not addictive which is a plus. Anyways thanks for your comment.

[busyhands94]

i think that if someone needs that medicine to ease their pain, they shouldn't be denied it. heck it is a lot better for you than Oxycontin or Valium or any of that gross stuff that doctors hand out these days. all medicinal pot does is blacks pain from reaching the brain receptors and helps people with medical problems. heck I'm a conservative and i think medicinal marijuana is just fine for people who need it. good video :)

[Tapps47]

@DangerousDan762 cool, i am not convinced it is going to be made legal for all purpose. There are many whom I can see might think that. I can also understand the reason(s) they would think it.

All i know is that the state government being involved has been a good thing. They monitor it closely. This keeps street Marijuana out of our dispensaries and closes those dispensaries that don't follow the rules. Only licensed growers can buy and sell in my state.
