| schestowitz | "Actually I think it trivializes and ignores the greater harm of soda, not pot, as in fact soda will be the underlying partner cause in way more health issues in the general population than pot. In the US (where I currently live) I have to laugh at the governments tactics on this. Of all the 'substance abusable' things out there, the two most dangerous and addictive and the hardest to quit : Alcohol and cigarettes. Yet those | Dec 27 20:36 |
| schestowitz | two are legal. And funny thing is, as a loooong term pot smoker, the amount of misinformation that is put out against marijuana is staggering in its incorrectness and fear-mongering.

| schestowitz | " | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | paragraph 2 : "many are quite addicted to the drug". Crap, pure unadulterated crap. Pot is not addictive, there are no addictive compounds in it, this is pure fabrication. Those of us who smoke know this. Doctors know this. When I smoked cigarettes I would feel irritable and sick if I went a day without one. I have gone year without smoking pot and felt no ill effects. And I am not alone in that. That is the NORM for pot. | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | Unlike cigarettes. In fact Cigarettes were harder for me to quit than any other drug I have tried, including cocaine. The rest of the article goes on in the same vein. | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | Now, before you blow a fuse, I am not saying that pot is not in any way harmful. I am not saying that. But in the end even water is harmful, and can be demonized. Imagine : | Dec 27 20:37 |

| schestowitz | "The dangers of water" | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | Although there are some out here who say it is ok, water is a terrible harm and blight on our society and communities around the globe. IT is responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands every year. You only need 2 inches of it before you could drown and in fact just soaking a towel in water and wrapping it around your face can cause you to drown. In fact water is so lethal and dangerous that the government is trying to | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | ban its use as 'inhuman' in the case where we try to get information from terrorists using it. And who knows the right dose? Too much water can kill you. Too little can kill you. And the additives in water? the additives? what chemicals are coming out of your favorite faucet. And to make matters worse, the insidious water companies are trying to make the water even more addictive and dangerous by adding sugar and flavor to it, | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | making you even more addicted and dependent on it. | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | " | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | " | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | I could go on and on but you get the point. Try it with anything. Caffeine withdrawal from removing coffee from a daily routine was one of the most painful experiences I have volunteered for. My whole body hurt and my head ached for days. Talk about disorientation! The positive effects on my health from quitting meat were a complete shock to me and to those who watched me during my first year. My palor changed (for the good) | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | my cholesterol, blood pressure, purse rate, general health, mental acuity, all improved JUST FROM NOT EATING MEAT! | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | There is so much we can do if we really. truly. care. about our societies general health and well being, but the demonising of something such as pot is ridiculous when we are faced with a huge upsurge in diabetes and obesity from the sugar and fast food companies, the hydrogenation of 99% of the fats in our diet, the lack of engaging education of our children, and the addiction of our nation to painkillers, and mind control | Dec 27 20:37 |

When are we going to grow the fuck up and actually deal with the real meaningful things in life instead of targeting some fringe behavior. Stop polluting the water supply, stop poisoning our food chain, stop destroying the atmosphere and cease the destruction of our planet through greed and overmining. When you have done all | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | that, then, and only then, can you come to me about my wish and pleasure in smoking the occasional joint." | Dec 27 20:37 |
| schestowitz | " | Dec 27 20:38 |
| schestowitz | The only addictive compound in a joint is tobacco after all, isn't it? | Dec 27 20:38 |
| schestowitz | Let's face it – the reason it's illegal is its availability. You can grow it pretty much anywhere, no processing needed, no large amounts. It wouldn't be possible for the state to control it (and make money from it) at all. | Dec 27 20:38 |
| schestowitz | " | Dec 27 20:38 |
| schestowitz | " | Dec 27 20:38 |
| schestowitz | heh, been a while since I put tobacco in a joint! I guess it depends on availability and product (flower -vs- resin). Plus the government have been growing pot for decades to produce marinol (an experimental drug that is based on pot). They know how to do it, they just refuse. Also they get a LOT of money form the anti-drug lobby, especially Kimbelry-Clark, the paper manufacturer ... "William Randolph Hearst (Citizen Kane) | Dec 27 20:38 |
| schestowitz | and the Hearst Paper Manufacturing Division of Kimberly Clark owned vast acreage of timberlands. The Hearst Company supplied most paper products. Patty Hearst's grandfather, a destroyer of nature for his own personal profit, stood to lose billions because of hemp" | Dec 27 20:38 |
