No kidding, if only those hippies used all that energy it needed to make all those leaflets, they might have jobs!

Seriously, it just makes me ashamed to be an occasional smoker :( there's no reason to bandstand these issues and ruin it for the rest of us by making normal people think all people who enjoy pot are a bunch of hippies who are out of touch with reality.

There's no cure for glaucoma.

So do a lot of things that can be found in any healthy diet.

Why doesn't it require the use of pesticides? Is it a natural bug repellant or something?

It can be used to make fuel, there's a car touring north america that runs on hemp oil.

Seriously, how efficient could that possibly be?

One thing you did forget to mention is that for all the supposed health benefits of marijuana, people who smoke the shit on a regular basis are susceptible to all kinds of health risks.
At the very least, you should be willing to admit that there's a small margin between the positive and negative effects of weed.

I don't care if the shit's legalized or not.
I don't see the need for protests. Everyone has access to the stuff whenever they want it.

it's like saying an argument about cars causing air pollution isn't valid, because there are zero emission cars for sale now.

you will have to find some new pot-political rhetoric to bring forward, i do welcome debunking them for you.

LOL
It's just like Knigel's vegetarian diet argument!
PEOPLE, IF YOU'RE CREATIVE ENOUGH AND THINK REALLY HARD, YOU CAN FIND A REALLY COMPLICATED WAY OF ACCOMPLISHING A REALLY SIMPLE TASK.
Really.

Robb I'm not sure exactly what you think you've "debunked" here, but stating that "call me when the majority of people..." only implies that you're waiting for it to be trendy to vaporize? Honestly you shouldn't require popular culture to accept something, before you can enjoy it healthily.
And your analogy to cars makes no sense. You're speaking about something that pollutes the environment, and comparing it to something that pollutes your lungs? Even if that was the case, if anything applies strictly to an individual it would fall under the "harm principle" , meaning essentially that if you don't cause harm to others, harm should not be inflicted on you .

And Diva , you are right that there is no cure for glaucoma , however the blindness that occurs from the disease can be stopped completely through the medical treatment of marijuana. While prescription medicine has shown to slow down the process, marijuana can halt it entirely. Hence if it's caught early enough, you can live with the disease.

no im saying that if there is a widespread problem with something, that to point out a relatively unpopular solution does not negate the fact there still is a widespread problem.

It's natural, organic, and beyond it's recreational use, has over 20,000 practical uses. It produces more fiber then paper, by weight , and only takes 6 months to grow , unlike tree's which take years. It produces a more durable fiber then cotton, and requires no pesticides. Cotton as you may or may not know is the biggest cause for pesticide use in north america. It can be used to make fuel, there's a car touring north america that runs on hemp oil. It can make all kinds of soaps and oils, and is also the seeds are remarkably high in protein, second only to soy.

So research before you discriminate.

haha i think shes been sarcastic...\
