Natural wins out. This fight aint over with though, thats alot of money pharmaceutical companies in their fuckwards way of thinking will consider loss. I agree though 1000%, its an awesome thing. I knew it all along there was nothing I did which involved cannabis was bad for me, but over the last few years I have learned much more at a rapid pace and I truly believe its affects on the well being of the body and mind in such an all consuming way; its a fucking integral part of our systems for fucks sakes, no more denial. Now this is not to say we havent made advancements in medicine, but the route everything is on now is about money, so harmaceutical companies are only fucking harming people these days

And while, on a national level, prescription drug overdose deaths are on the rise, in every state that has legalized medical marijuana the rates of prescription drug overdose deaths has fallen by, on average, 40% after 4 years of legalization (about 10% drop per year after legalization, capping at 40%).

i always look at the down side. big pharm surely knows this. now they tell the government to make it schedule 2 and they can corner the market right after home growing is outlawed. this is only a hiccup for big pharm.

they'll never be able to outlaw home grow.

they would be smarter by treating it like brewing your own beer.

everyone needs a cut.

Pretty straightforward; medical marijuana has the effect of causing prescriptions for many other medications to drop.

I personally think this is a good thing!

Posted this in the Canadian thread this morning. Our feds are looking for fact-based decisions to design the new program, yet they seem to ignore this sort of data. I and many here have known and used it for medicine for years, now we have some data to prove it. Move over big pharma, you scumbags...

Beat them over the head with this, pinning shame them by showing pictures of epilepsy patients having grand mal seizures, the whole bit.

It was THEIR tactic for a long time, feed 'em a taste of chickens coming home to roost!

Its a gateway drug, might as well just stick that needle in your arm and start sleeping under a bridge. Expect to be blowing dudes with diseases for soup money in the near future.

that's actually just a rumor i am spreading.

he is for sure a white supremacist, and has a failing construction business where he keeps two sets of books to avoid paying taxes. lives in a trailer and is bitter that he is not allowed to parcel out his land and turn it into what would basically be a trailer park.

but yeah, i say we just call him a cop too because why not?
