There are (were?) a lot of things that I wanted to say, but by the time I got done reading everything I probably forgot them. Here goes.
Velly, I know three asmetics who smoke marijuana. They tell me that since they started smoking, their asthma has been much less of a problem.
Make of it what you will.
Drew, my name is Jon(athan), not John. For some reason the H always gets to me. Please, be more careful next time
She's being taught over this and the next 4 years to be a doctor. If they teach her stuff that's wrong she'll misdiagnose conditions and prescribe the wrong medication or other course of treatment. It's utterly ridiculous to give her false information has she would just end up killing people. The government and various media sources might lie or coverup information but a university training a doctor wouldn't.
Telling one lie doesn't mean telling a hundred. Saying "marijuana is bad, it should stay illegal, and it has no use medically" does not at all mean that those young aspiriring medical students are one day going to misdiagnose a patient when they come in for aches and pains, or anything at all.
I never understood the continuation of taking drugs. Sure it's fun, cool and new when you're in high school but as you get older, what's the point? Are you trying to escape reality? If so that's a sad life you have there.
I think I said in here some where but people really need to stop viewing drugs this way. At the least, stop viewing cannabis this way. People not only do it because it's trendy, but they could also do it for pure enjoyment, just the same as people read books, write stories, play video games, and play fetch with their dog.
There was more that I wanted to say but the Topic Summary only goes so far.
Edited to fix a problem with quotes, and to say that I think that's all I had in mind to say.
