I've known potheads since my freshman years in highschool and they're probably the sanest, happiest guys I've ever met.
From personal experience, I'm calling that one BS.
Your experience may differ I suppose.
And I will call bs on your happy go lucky friends. Out of 19 in my crew only 5 of them are alive and free from prison. The rest died either by dealing drugs (pot included) or killed themselves (while amazingly smoking a lot of pot).
Numbtards can only be happy on the drug, as long as they have it they're "ok" without it?
Medically, who am I to deny? But to excuse away your life...get real.
If they were truly content with their lives they wouldn't need additional substances.
So bs on the happy go lucky types. I've seen all of them at their sober moments. They're miserable, selfish, scared, and lost souls.
Well, what can I say? My cousin has problems with heroine. She's like thirty or so and has a kid...but I won't pretend I understand the things you must be going through.
You and I may disagree on politics, however, I wish you success in this ordeal, I truly do. Stay strong man.

Stop.
No, you stop. Don't believe propaganda, and think critically. If you can't form a counter argument, don't even bother. Its amazing at how socially engineered people have become by governments.
Remember, goverment in latin means mind-control (govern=control, ment = mind). Please don't believe me, go look it up yourself.
Kids these days, easy to form opinions based on what you see on TV when you havn't actually experienced anything in life.

Plus really, if you vape it or use oil, there's almost zero negative side effects besides, well, the risk of amazing high inventions and eating everything in your cupboard.
This is absolutely true. Actually scientists have found contentrated THC to have super anti-inflammatory properties, and early stages of cancer can be completely repealed by it, this is a danger to big pharamceutical corporations, hence massive government opposition to making it legal. I have Crohn's Disease so I've explored all the possible avenues of treatment, and I know I'd be dead if it weren't for weed for all of the aforementioned reasons.
