Not a thing wrong with Cannabis at all. About Time William Randolph Hearts one man tyrannical war on Cannabis came to an end, with an open minded generation, who knows (from experience) its a helluva lot easier to toke and drive; rather than drink and drive. Tho' my nightly ritual is for sleeping, and it just can't be beat, a vape of Indica now and then.....Yeppers....! I said before, the 80s Nose Candy Dilemma made the 60s look like Captain Kangaroo's court, Romper Room, Sesame Street and Mister Pedophile Rogers, on any given day.....!
Not to mention brain damaged freaking low life pot heads. From reduction of cortical dopamine, to remodeling of reward feedback mechanism (addiction) to reduced hippocampus and amygdala region volumes and finally to genotype moderation of signal transduction pathways linked to increased psychosis. Also doesn't help that a lot of the real damning evidence is not published by academia out of fear of reprisal from powerful advocates in academia. But its your brain.....spark up ladies.
Lets see, in my lifetime I've done........ Pot..............................CHECK Speed..........................CHECK Mess...........................CHECK Acid............................CHECK Angel dust..................CHECK Uppers........................CHECK Downers.....................CHECK And I'm not as think as you stoned I am. But then again, I grew up in the 60s.
Fear is only a result of the unknown, but you knew that, and didn't mention it. Fear of reprisal, no, not since William Randolph Hearst's American Inquisition of all Mehicans, he didn't want American dollars going to feed Mehicans in soup lines, during the Depression, but you knew of his 1 man crusade too....??? Tell all this to the thousands of Epileptics, who benefit from not having to take very dangerous drugs your aware of like Adavan, (one to large a dose, and cyanara), Felbatol by Felbamate, Depakote, (shut my Son's liver down), and a shit load of others. Now these same 100s of 1,000s of Epileptics, benefit from a No T-H, or CBN, but only CBD Oils, extracted from Charlotte's Web..... ie, google "Realm Of Caring", then go ask Alice, when she's ten feet tall, and go tell Charlotte what the Cheshire Cat had to say....!
Rick, I just finished re-building and modifying a 454 Vette Engine, which can easily be adapted to your electric scooter, 4 on the floor, with 2 each 4 barrel Hollies, to feed the Monster. No need for Gas, runs on JP4 Jet Fuel***. Only prob is the wheels have to be 3 feet wide, just to gain traction.....I don' think that would fit in your door. NTM- it utilizes a big semi-truck battery just to run the fuel pumps....! ***JP4 Jet Fuel, I gotta' lifetime pass to EAFB, where we can fill that monster up for free....!!! From Queens to Mojave's Desert, we can simply put easy attach and detach wings on it, so you can fly out for every refill.....!
when I was going thru College, and just began working in Aerospace, I did not watch one of those 1st 5 years sober, not at all. There were a ton of Agriculture and Chemistry Majors in that era, who teamed up to create Hydroponics systems from Heaven...... Can you say Oaxaca, Humboldt, Mendocino Greeno, Maui Waui, Thai, not sticks, but buds that weighed anywhere from 1 to 3 ounces. That and a touch of Honey Oil, and Lebanese Blonde or German Black coated (Hash Oil hardened, with green inside), what a fuking fantastic time that was, life in the Emerald Triangle....! Again made the 60s seem like a Kindergarten birthday party....!
Tom I can only guess you were an altar boy & never touched the stuff because there's no paranoia with pot. Acid yes.
What? who's knocking at my door, ??? oh that's only the wind......wait someone is looking thru binoculars into my house, from a tree 100 yards away......shit, I think the DOD, just sent up a satellite to spy on me......I think everything I do on the I-net is being fed to the Secret Service.... Who? Me, paranoid, not at all. beware of strangers wearing masks....! LMAO...!
Son of a secret service agent/cop. Never liked the stuff or needed it for that matter. What was the point? To experience an altered state of reality? I still have a powerful imagination. And I preferred the Endorphin rush during a run, or adrenaline from sports....testosterone jolt from squats and deadlifts. As the sober guy in the room, you pot heads were paranoid beyond belief, lol! Probably the defining moment for me was freshman year in college. Had a roommate get poisoned by his HS friend (also in our college), though it would be a hoot to give him dusted hash. He ended up in the emergency room, putting him on probation and cost his father a job (see his dad was a dean at the same school). So to me drug use had major consequences on peoples lives. As for my roommates buddy....I caught up to him 2 days later. Enough said.
...what about the evils of alcohol?... oh, but that's different, right? ...and as you well know, I workout daily and I'm privy to the same chemical "rushes" that are manufactured naturally within my own body, so it's not like I'm somehow devoid of the things you referred to, just because I'll burn one every now and then. ...your story about your friend is an exception, not the rule, not by any means because it was simply the resuly of stpuidity. Well meaning practical joke go haywire all the time so it should not be an endictment on cannibis in general. ...don't think for a second that I'm some sort of "rasta man" who walks around with a blunt hanging out of my mouth all of the time. One joint will last me over a week. I might hit it a couple of times in the evening only because it helps me to sleep much better. ...seems to me that you're the one being "paranoid".
Ah yes....the dangers of alcohol strawman. Different type of addiction and impairment. Genotype vs phenotype. As as for THC causing paranoia..... That's clinically proven. I'm not judging you....don't get defensive. Like I said, spark up buddy. Enjoy.
