Nope I am not Philippe from Tilray which is who I think you are referring to. I am exactly who I said I was, a 55 year old military veteran with severe PTSD and Fibromyalgia and I stand by my comments although I apologize if I offended some of you. Unfortunately this is the exact same kind of reaction I was warning about but I guess that's just going to send some people into a frenzy again.
It is unfortunate that I am being pushed out due to my slightly different viewpoint since this movement needs people who can influence the system from the inside. If the minister of health suddenly found herself on this forum and in need of weed would you tell her to fuck off or try to get her to understand the issues in a civilized manner so she could help? If I sound like an executive from Tilray its because I work in a corporate environment as a senior individual and since being released from the army I got them to pay me through an MBA. That makes me write like I do, 2 years of business school changes your perspective.
As for "If this dude had PTSD he'd be swearing a blue streak at this point," what the fuck do you know about PTSD, what's the most you ever been afraid of, a paper cut? Do 21 years in the army and get your ass shot off in some godawful desert then come tell me how I should or should not react!!
Its people like you that make me have to smoke, lucky for me I just received some awesome OG Kush from Tilray so I guess I will stop wasting my time trying to help and just smoke my stuff.

I was going to respond here too but fuck it. No sense, if you have your idea made up that I am a prick then everything I write will just be interpreted that way. My comments are about a vocal minority of people who unfortunately seem to have stolen the agenda, if you want to interpret them as a generalization that's your business. My bad, this is the internet after all, what the fuck was I expecting anyway.
I'm going to assume that at this juncture you are either being willfully ignorant, or grossly uninformed. I will assume the later. Are you really serious when wondering why patients are complaining about low THC strains? Considering THC is the main cannabinoid(short of the CBD boom the last 2-3yrs) which provides relief for patients ailments, one does not have to be a genius to see why patients are mad that the cannabis provided is much lower in it's active compounds when purchased from a legal source than the BM. Strains which, when grown properly have wayyyy higher % numbers anywhere else you procure them EXCEPT the legal route is WHY patients are complaining about the lower potency. Please spend more time reading and educating yourself instead of lumping us all into a category of recreational users

Hey Hey Hey Don't go.....You ARE welcome...as long as you think like us.
No seriously your opinion is important and we all just bite a bit. If yer a smoker...you belong here....we even tolerate rnr and he's not of this planet. Be tough here in your skin and you'll come to like us as we really are superior human beings.

I don't have to use an LP thank god, because the horror stories almost make me want to start opiates again. If Rona got sick, I'd recommend tweed to her. That cold heartless bitch doesn't deserve any better than that shit. If what your buying works for you great...but you can't expect people who have been providing their own meds for a number of years to agree that the qualIty of what they are being forced to use now is even remotely similar to what they had before. Maybe if you had had an opportunity to use medication that knocks your socks off for your symptoms, you would have a different opinion. But don't ever think your opinion isn't welcomed here, just not readily accepted.

Understood. If what you guys are growing blows the Tilray Pink Kush I had the other day out of the water then I can see your point. To me this stuff is strong but you are correct, I have very little to compare it to.

I haven't made up my mind about anything. I was merely replying to your post, simple as that. WHATFG said it best in his last post. No one here wants you gone, opinions are welcomed. Sorry if my reply came off as such.

Hey Joe, everyone is welcome.
If you put out a post like that which I found offensive then you better expect different replies.
Sorry we're not all dancing in the streets with joy.
We're not sheep.
I didn't really view the feedback you got as being in a frenzy.
Hope you stick around, it's entertaining.
