Quoting: AtsuiPanda you would die of oxygen deprivation by that point. yea that's the whole point, you'd be long dead from other things before the cannabinoids killed you |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 26924698 Germany 11/03/2012 02:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I read somewhere that due to heavy manufacturing of cannabis people can die during an overdose on pot (without any other drugs). This was shocking because I was under the impression that not even the long term effects of marijuana caused death. Quoting: The Gypsy Opinions? The Gypsy. I have heart issues (unregular heart beat, low blood pressure). I have been warned by doctors not to do any cannabis (which I don't), because this can lead to a dangerous blood pressure drop. If you ask clinical psychiatrists they can show you (or tell you of) numerous people who actually went crazy just because they used cannabis regularly. They develop an incurable paranoia over time. The problem: Only one tenth of all people are "able" to develop a psychosis when using cannabis. 90% are immune to psychotic issues. So most people do fine when smoking pot. "Only" 10% are risking their mental health. Provided your blood circuit is stable and you don't have the intense feeling of paranoia when smoking pot (the usual warning sign), everything is fine. |

IchibanHahn User ID: 3819459 United States 11/03/2012 07:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It is impossible to overdose on Marijuana. Marijuana is nontoxic to the human body. [link to voices.yahoo.com] ....approximately 1,500 pounds of cannabis, or about 681.81 kilograms. The only way you can die from Marijuana is if you consumed the amount that basically would equal a small house, and even then you would not die of toxicity, rather you would have more THC in your body than any other element. Basically you'd die from drinking too much water, or any other thing the same way, probably sooner. [link to www.drugwarfacts.org] (overdose - marijuana - no deaths induced) An exhaustive search of the literature finds no deaths induced by marijuana. The US Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN) records instances of drug mentions in medical examiners' reports, and though marijuana is mentioned, it is usually in combination with alcohol or other drugs. Marijuana alone has not been shown to cause an overdose death. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 26795689 United States 11/03/2012 10:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People who smoke weed get high, propholyne alcohol and the fluke worm cause cancer, not weed not cigarettes, maybe a contributor not the cause. Quoting: stars It's so funny to see these posts from dope-addled stoners who can't understand a simple sentence. Can you understand non-government funded research? [link to www.washingtonpost.com] The largest study of its kind has unexpectedly concluded that smoking marijuana, even regularly and heavily, does not lead to lung cancer. The new findings "were against our expectations," said Donald Tashkin of the University of California at Los Angeles, a pulmonologist who has studied marijuana for 30 years. "We hypothesized that there would be a positive association between marijuana use and lung cancer, and that the association would be more positive with heavier use," he said. "What we found instead was no association at all, and even a suggestion of some protective effect." ------------------------------------------------- It doesn't necessarily make you cancer proof, but it certainly doesn't cause it. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26776851 There are some graphic scenes in this clip so viewer discretion advised. [link to m.youtube.com] This isnt just a problem for those living in the 19th century, it is clearly dangerous even today, turning normal people into drug maniacs that die. It also destroys lives and college or job prospects as we can see in the video below, where some dude's life is ruined because he smoked the reefer... Some campaign songs have also tried to send the message of not smoking marry jwana... [link to m.youtube.com] Apparently you can be a complete moron without smoking because if you dont smoke weed you must have been born this stupid and thats scarey. They didnt even have video in 1820, only still images. it wasnt until 1890 that movie camera was developed. The film your talking about is Reefer Madness which didnt come out until 1936. Thats over 100 years later, im not even gonna post any links with these facts, because anyone with a brain can look it up. Marijuana is a natural seed baring plant, the government made videos to scare people so they could build Oil Corporations to make money. Hemp Seed used to run our Navy Ships before oil and gasoline. Anyway, and reefer only ruins the lives of those who are as dumb as well you. Please humor me with your attempt to disprove me... |

Everyone has cancer cells, just has to be triggered. Doctors today attempt to link everything to cancer that they dont make for you. The government doesnt want us growing weed and smoking it b/c they cant control it, but they control all the drugs we get from our Doctors, everyday you see commericals offering a drug for joint pain that causes 10 worse things or even death. They say it right there on TV "or even death" but people have been smoking weed since biblical times. I have smoked marijuana for 20 years, and im more intelligent then you.. |

I go into panic attacks each time I try it. Otherwise I tend to have a good mindset. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1652507 Dont blame the weed cause your crazy.... thats a personal problem dont blame the weed. Nothing is the same, anybody ever think to blame food, and water, and flu shots, and everything else that is massed produced because people are to lazy to do anything anymore. People are brainwashed by the government, there is no BiPolar, Manic Depressive, Panic disorders its called life, it requires thinking, lifes hard and now people dont have to cope they just medicate on scripts given to them by Doctors made in labs and havent even been around long enough to really know what it is.. Weed came with the earth, if they havent proven it by now its not true.. |

arieshottie User ID: 20246083 United States 11/04/2012 12:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There was a time were [sic] it was illegal not to grow because of its many uses, back in the George Washington days. Quoting: stars Really? It was illegal to not grow it? Because of its many uses? Did not know that. Marijuana was listed in the United States Pharmacopeia from 1850 until 1942 and was prescribed for various conditions including labor pains, nausea, and rheumatism. Its use as an intoxicant was also commonplace from the 1850s to the 1930s. A campaign conducted in the 1930s by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Narcotics (now the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs) sought to portray marijuana as a powerful, addicting substance that would lead users into narcotics addiction. It is still considered a "gateway" drug by some authorities. In the 1950s it was an accessory of the beat generation; in the 1960s it was used by college students and "hippies" and became a symbol of rebellion against authority. [link to www.narconon.org] You replied to my post, but you didn't say anything that was relevant to my post. Yeah they had the right idea but took it the wrong way. So ill add to that. Yes it was illegal not to grow marijuana. I was amazed when i found this a couple months ago, because most i already knew but this puts it together and its true, tells you everything. There is 3 parts so look at them all. [link to www.world-mysteries.com] you cant simply google weed and get this info, you have to dig for it. Its alot to read but its so worth it. Marijuana is a wonderful plant, with uses that could make America thrive and solve world hunger, but the gov brainwashed people into hating it... |
