this is great, thank you Nevada... basically they are working with medical marijuana inc to educate people on just about, if not, all aspects of cannabis.

    • Come on- It's just ridiculous to keep marijuana illegal. WE spend hundreds of thousands of dollars keeping petty marijuana offenders in jail every year not to mention the man time. We're allowed to chain smoke cigs. until we have to talk through a hole in our throats and booze it up until our liver fails, but god forbid someone wants to smoke a bong every now and then-regardless if they are sick or not. This is like a modern day prohibition. Make it illegal and people will find ways to get aorund it and break the law, make it legal and where's the crime. What people don't realize often is that many marijuana smokers are "normal" otherwise law abiding citizens. Many of them lead blue collar lives (doctors, teachers, lawyers, business people, etc.) and besides the act of buying marijuana they have never broken a sinlge law. I'd rather be "addicted" to weed any day than alcohol or any of the many prescription drugs that millions are addicted to today.

    • I use medical marijuana, here's what I was able to stop taking because of it= Baclofen 40mg a day, OxyContin 180mg a day, Hyzaar 40mg a day, and 2 different antidepresants. Can anyone really tell me that marijuana is worse for me than what I was taking?

    • millions of people that suffer from any of the following: cancer, asthma, arthritis, migraines, muscle spasms, insomnia, add and adhd, autism, anxiety, chronic back pain, fibromyalgia, MS, HIV/AIDS, substance dependence, lymphoma, colitis, PTSD, shingles, carpel tunnel syndrome, OCD, glaucoma, bipolar disorder, muscular degeneration, sleep apnea, motion sickness; basically it helps with any physical or mental disorder...

      and who are you to judge whether or not a person is actually sick or not? are you a doctor? did you put your medical license on the line to recommend cannabis to a patient that would truly benefit from it?

      you still have yet to bring a coherent argument to the table...

      While I am not a doctor and I do agree with legalization, you are not a doctor or an herbalist, so who are you to say that Marijuana does treat those things?

      What a lot of people, tokers mostly, don't understand is that while Cannabis may be a miracle drug, smoking it is not conducive to one's health. Most of the cannabinoids are lost in combustion so eating it or extracting cannabinoid oils would be a much better transmission.

      Again I'm not saying you're wrong, but what coherent argument are you bringing to the table?

      "smoking marijuana does not appear to increase the risk of lung cancer or head-and-neck malignancies, even among heavy users. The more tobacco a person smoked, the greater their risk of developing lung cancer and other cancers of the head and neck. But people who smoked more marijuana were not at increased risk compared with people who smoked less and people who didn’t smoke at all.

      Even very heavy, long-term marijuana users who had smoked more than 22,000 joints over a lifetime seemed to have no greater risk than infrequent marijuana users or nonusers."

      Nor was smoking cannabis shown to cause COPD (unless cigarettes are also smoked).

      i am not a doctor, but if a doctor is willing to put their license on the line to recommend a substance to you that they believe would benefit you, who am i to disagree.

      I i say that it helps treat those things because although i am not a doctor i am a patient who suffers from muscle spasms, and insomnia as well as migraine headaches; not only that but it has been well documented to help treat those ailments which i named and many more.

      If you have read some of my other comments or posts, you would know that i never believed that smoking any substance, whether it be for recreation or medical use, is healthy. however, vaporizing cannabis is the safest way to inhale the substance although its still not be the best way to ingest.

      i have brought many coherent arguments to the table in past responses and posts. check em out if u like....now if you want to have a intelligent argument about this subject id be more than happy to do that, but right now i have nothing to prove to anyone....
