This thread is for the naysayers about Kaneh Bosm( Cannabis) and its medical benefits. Mr. President...

You are hung up on recreational use... I am advocating medical use

Have a nice day, you are apparently nothing more than a shill to distract from what is being done here. You are taking what I am posting out of context and misconstruing what my objective is. I am talking about medical purposes here but that is your job I suspect.

We are all addicts of one sort of another, if your addicted to coffee your an addict, it is a personality trait.

I would rather use mmj than the other things coming out of big pharma for pain control. It is my choice and right to say what I use/put on/put in my body.

I bid you adieu !! Thanks for asking questions anyways.

Here is an example of how Hemp can help the environment in lue of all the radiation being spewed from Fukushima.

Hemp plants were shown to be effective in cleaning the soil around the site of Russia’s Chernobyl nuclear disaster and were even considered for use near Fukushima.

MINNEAPOLIS — The cannabis plant has myriad uses, from paper, fabric and even fuel that can be created from industrial hemp, to the many health conditions which benefit from medical marijuana. Here’s one more benefit to add to the list: removing toxic metals and even radiation from soil.

The process of using plants to clean polluted soil is called phytoremediation. According to a 2014 report from Nation of Change’s Christina Sarich, two members of the mustard family are more frequently used in phytoremediation, but cannabis has shown some promise because of its hardiness to toxins and quick growth rates. Some have even considered using it near Fukushima.

*sigh* No, I am not. I'm asking you about what you posted.


Nope.


I'm not addicted to anything.


Marijuana doesn't control pain.

ALL marijuana use is medical!
People do not partake if they don't need it's treatment.

5 stars & some green (karma) for you. Excellent post!!!

I have seen, first hand, what MMJ can do. Took someone (that I know) that suffered from a terrible condition/autoimmune disease & gave them their life back. It was/is a miracle.

I don't think it's a miracle cure for everyone though.

This plant has so much good to give. Trying to stop it is insane & is just peddling to the real drug pushers. (Pharmaceutical companies)

Legalize it & tax the heck out of the recreational aspect of it. Government will happy to receive $ & the people will be happy. It's a win win situation!

There needs to be a Johnny Apple Seed project.
Spread the seed far and wide to every corner of the US. Mother earth will heal you. If you don't like it, keep walking and don't touch it.

Keeping in mind the medicinal thc compound comes from the female plant. Hemp is considered the male aspect of the plant and also has wonderful benefits. These just name a few.

rest on link above^^

Indeed.... my partner and I have talked of such things lol

I have high blood pressure and have to take a daily medication. Stopped it for a few days to check how cannabis effects it.

Results? It was 130-75 the day before (not to bad), after 2 hits of decent legal weed (I'm in Oregon) the next morning it was 95-55.

WOW!

To bad my job has random drug tests, I'd quit the medication and just have a couple of hits each night.

"Marijuana doesn't control pain."


Walk a mile in another man's boots before writing that garbage. Are you aware how ignorant your garbage appears?

I was prescribed OxyContin and then morphine for 12yrs after a car crash when an elderly woman fell asleep behind the wheel and rear ended me. I never abused those deadly painkillers that Doctors were prescribing me, but I did take them every day for those 12yrs.

Doctors said I would never be able to function without them. In 2005 I began growing my own organic cannabis and I asked my Doctors to cut my OxyContin prescription in half. By 2007 I stepped my gardening game up and asked my Doctors to cut my prescription in half again.

3.5yrs ago I quit all prescription pain killers, and I have not even taken an Advil/Tylenol in 5yrs.

Locally grown organic cannabis was a huge help, and I eat/vaporize/ and smoke locally grown organic flowers and hashish every day. A careful organic diet is also a huge help.

I consider myself 100% drug free, and I carry around my 59lb canoe on my shoulders like it ain't shit. On that note, while breaking my solo canoe camp on the river in 2015 I had Rush Limbaugh on the radio, and Rush said something so brilliant it really stuck with me.

I am paraphrasing, but Rush said something to the effect of If you wish to exposed hive minded sheep near you, simply make lifestyle changes to better your own health... Hive minded sheep will develop uncomfortable twists in their panties, and if you are aware of it before hand it is fun to watch them squirm ;)

For the one who says it does not help with pain.. this is just one example.

wowzer excellent thread. i have zero experience with MJ but as a person who dabbles in herbalism, i can see that it is a very very important component in the spectrum of healing.

please Mr President, please see this! and bring common sense to the policies regarding this herb!

it should probably be in every home, to ease the suffering of the old, especially. and the very ill.

aging ain't for sissies, as my nana used to say. i can see how the lack of cannabis has cause much suffering of the aged.

Trump in order to make us great, healthy and safe again you need to come down on Big Pharma, get GMO's out of our foods, make vaccines safer and less frequently administered, get the fluoride out of our water supplies, address our aging nuclear power plant situation and begin decommissioning them all and FREE THE WEED!! Just my two cents because I am too broke to have tree fifty!!

I am a living walking testament to those other pain "killers" have failed with numerous side effects/affects.

Most pain killers from over the counter or even prescribed have acetaminophen, Ibuprofen or a number of other compounds that tear your liver up. No thanks. As well as have been known to shut down your emotional empathy.

[link to www.naturalnews.com]

"(NaturalNews) The active ingredient in Tylenol might numb people's emotional reactions, according to a study conducted by researchers from Ohio State University and published in the journal Psychological Science.

"People who took acetaminophen didn't feel the same highs or lows as did the people who took placebos," researcher Baldwin Way said.

Notably, the participants in the study did not realize that their reactions had been affected."

For those who are interested look up white willow bark as a pain killer anti-inflammatory and well as "golden milk" made with turmeric for inflammation.

It's made by a company called Charlotte's Web. I don't think you can buy their CBD products online (don't see them listed), but maybe give them a call to see if they can ship to you if you're in a state that's legal? I get mine from a store locally.

And i totally forgot to include the link - suffering from a cold today.

Or you can call this health food store. I volunteered here at one time for organic food. They carry it and I know they research and provide valid products. If you call them they will suggest who to buy it from or maybe even ship it to you .

You are a lot more trusting than I am OP. The old 60's stereotype of marijuana users being "burnt-out" has a lot of pathophisology behind it.

The fact is that marijuana users do not have dreams when they sleep because the drug prevents users from entering into R.E.M. sleep.
No R.E.M. sleep causes users to always feel tired, have problems concentrating and have poor short term memory.

Would you still feel confident in allowing a pot-head doctor do surgery on you?

--------------------------------------------------

So you disagree with the study that you posted.

Let's see those "facts"????

CBD Oil derived from Industrial Hemp is legal in all 50 States. Industrial Hemp has hyper-trace amounts of THC and therefore is considered a food source by the FDA.

There are numerous on-line sources to buy good quality CBD Oil. My favorite source is Pure Hemp Botanicals. I use CBD Oil every day and am amazed at the results.

I smoked pot for years when I was younger but stopped.

Then I got hurt in an accident - pretty bad. Right now, I'm on 4 medication (non-opiates) and my doctor suggested getting my medical marijuana card.

Well, I did... and to make a long story short, it seems to help me more then the other 4 prescriptions combined.... BUT it's useless with taking the other meds... so it work well in conjunction with what I'm taking.

:thatsswelll:

I wake more refreshed and happier. Seems you got some fuckery going on here.

It's common knowledge that marijuana users do not dream /become burnt-out.

You're OK having a pot-head doctor do surgery on you? Really??
----------------------------------------

Get some Cannabis Indica Rhuderalis...and grow your own...should grow just fine up there in that neck of the woods....great hardy plant...looks awesome...works good for pain too.

Untested people swallow the propaganda to easily.

Now just analyze the gravity of what works and how easy and abundant it could be to everyone. There ya go, Big Pharma and the Government are fighting to be your drug dealers.
Congratulations on finding what helps.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong? I am in severe pain. Daily! I have a really bad shoulder impingement and a winged scapula. I've been smoking regularly for 2 yrs. While it weed makes it more tolerable, it doesn't dull the pain in the least.
I've just tried kratom and it works for a few hrs. I'm crying in the shower still from pain.
I broke down this morning and took a tramadol (first time ever) and finally i can breathe again.
How do I even take weed to kill pain?

5 stars for a wonderful post, and for making the pharma shills squirm.
